ACTING/CAST: All great actors, so nice to see many of them come together from different series.
MUSIC: Great music.
REWATCH VALUE: Yeah, just the parts with Rome and Pick.
OVERALL: I am kinda sad to see the warm, sweet charm of Season 1 disappear. They definitely went in a different direction. Porsche is very moody and not as charismatic as before. Adding more cast has added much more tension. It feels like the innocence was lost between seasons.

The good:
1. OffGun, need i say more?
2. Krist, its refreshing to see him as a loving character, someone who shows his feelings. I wish they used him more.
The bad:
1) i used to like the straight couple before but now they're just whiny little waste of screen time;
2) where are the dogs, its Puppy Honey wihtout the dogs???;
3) whats up with the 5-minute opening credits and 5-minute closing credits, the run is 8 episode and you waste 10min per episode just for unnecessary crap;
4) i almost graded the show higher for not incorporating villains in the show but then come the last episode and that shiity way they treated Din's character. I wish producers will give Sing a better character than just being in the background. This guy is cute;
5) i wanted to jump to the screen everytime the female actress falls or trips. Why are women treated like weaklings, is this what you call romantic trait of a girl? ;
6) everytime there is a fight (in all thai series, not just in this series) the guys always have bloody lips. Its the same in the first season. How weak are the lips of Thai guys? There are 4 or 5 instances in this series alone where the guy characters get beaten up and ended up with a bloody lips. It is just so frustrating to watch;
7) Each episodes felt stretched and they wasted so many time with the slow senseless talking, especially for the straight couple.
They should have transformed this into a full pledged BL series (a la DBK) and gave us 8 full episodes of OffGun cause the 2 main straight leads were just wasted here. The magic is gone from the first season and what used to be a fun series became a sloppy slow soap that you wish would just fast forward and end. It would also be more believable if Emma ended up with Night and Porsche just ended up with Friend.
Would i rewatch. Probably not, not even the BL parts. Tired of seeing conservative BL guys in BL series. Do these producers seriously think that gay guy couples dont have sex and intimacy when they were dating for 3 years already?
Overall im giving it 6.5 but without OffGun would probably rate it lower.

I must say that you would get mixed emotions after watching this one. It was really a roller coaster ride.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR EVERYONE WHO HAVE WATCHED THE FIRST SEASON TO SEE THIS TOO.
You will really miss a LOT if you don't see this.

The actors evolved into much mature roles. This was a year after the first series and came to think that just one year ago the drama's timeline. I thought there would be lapses in acting because one year also passed, but the actors are really great. The composure, substance, and skills of each other, have improved.
The storyline was also leverage on the next level. It's more complicated, more difficult, and more robust. This drama has balance two face stories. Not just pure love, not just sadness, balance. And another, I see more capabilities of each character, how much they can and do for the people they care about.
There is one who needs to get away to fulfill their dreams, there is one who can not afford to be away of the one she loves because of distance, another one is in denial of what he is feeling inside but keeps on showing it, and the last one continue to love, reveal that Heartily though he is not sure if that person can afford all his offerings. These 4 faces of each character really hit me hard. You can be one of these four. You can be a martyr but childish, or be in denial but vocal to those you feel.
When I finished watching it, I know for myself that this is your last series, which will not have season 2 because of the close book. All questions have been answered in previous chapters. The fabulous and superb layout and texture of the story are accompanied by the intelligent performance of the selected actors. Kudos!

Don't watch it. RUN AWAY! SAVE YOURSELF.
I'm repeating: DO. NOT. WATCH. IT.

While I was waiting for the Make It Right season 2, I have come across Secret Love: Honey Puppy season 1. The first season was not that intense but, I love the different kind of Love that the writer was trying to show. The love story of P'Porshe and Emma and the secret love of P'Pick and Rome. That kind of plot was very interesting and every episodes is something that you must never missed.
Now, i am writing a very short review regarding the first three episodes of Secret Love: Honey Puppy 2 (I never seen the Episode 4 with English sub, so that will be part on my next review.). For me the good thing about this season is the growing feeling of P'Pick towards Rome. i love the way it was being told. P'Pick said that he is or he was a straight guy and will never ever fall in love with the same sex (Rome). He keep on saying that there was no special relationship between him (P'Pick) and Rome. But he didn't realize that his feeling towards Rome is growing into something deeper until P'Din comes into the scene. Surely, in reality you will never know if you really love someone until there another person comes in between and will try to get the attention of the person who means so much more for you. I really love that kind of plot and the way how the writer try to tell the story between P'Pick and Rome. And guys believe me, that always happen in real life not just in TV series.
The love triangle of P'Pick, Rome and P'Din is a much awaited of all (at least for me in this case). I would like to see more of P'Pick side, how far will he go to win Rome. Or will P'Din be the person who try to get Rome from P'Pick. Now the world has turn upside down. As you can recall in the first season it was Rome who initiated to reveal his love toward P'Pick. But in this season, it seems like P'Pick will try to do his best to win Rome's heart. We will see what will happen next in the next succeeding episodes.
On the other hand, the story of P'Porshe and Emma is an example of a love that you have taken for granted. And that is a sad reality. If you love someone you should always find some time to make him/ her happy. Even though your distance apart from each other, you should always make an effort to see him/ her. Regardless of how busy you are in your work and in your studies. P'Porshe and Emma's love story is a very common story with a different endings. Either they will make it up with each other and continue with their relationship. Or be apart from each other and will start a new life with someone else. This is one of most awaited scene in this new episode.
I wanted to know if Friend (the new girl character) is really just a friend or a younger sister to P'Porshe or will she fall in love with him. And will P'Oh will accept P'Porshe in Emma's life. Will there be a chance that P'Night (the new guy character) will be Emma's new boyfriend. These are the questions that I want to have answers in the next succeeding episodes.
So far, this is one of my Most Favorite Series of all. I highly recommend this for everybody to watch. I love to see what will happen next to the story of P'Porshe and Emma and the story of P'Pick and Rome. Again there are so many possible endings. Let us see if one of those endings that we have inside our head will come to happen.
Thank you for reading my first review guys. I hope that you will like it. Again this review is only for the first three episodes of this season. I will soon write my next review after I watch the next succeeding episodes of this season. I love the story and I really hope that there will be season 3.
Just leave your comments and suggestions or violent reactions down below. Thank you guys.

I even caught myself humming the title song (as for the season one's title song, I didn't even remember it:)
As I skipped most of the 1st Puppy Honey for being overfilled with animals, silly costume animals, and Kang Korn Sirisorn, I enjoyed watching this better.

Series was Ok, but lots of room for improvement.
The series was ok but lacked a lot of development and emotion. There are times when you wanted to feel for the characters but lost interest because it all felt like it was being dragged on way too long. This season had a lot of potential for it to be good but fell short on all. Too much drama with the same situation over and over again, the third person comes into the picture and the main character does not know what to do or who to choose. I am happy that everyone got with the mate in the end, but I have to say very disappointed at the development of Pick and Rome. Their ending was cut short as the 2nd couple and fixed way too fast for a good story. How does Pick get to play with both a girl and a guy and act like he can not choose and in the end only chose Rome, because he finds out he got played for by the third guy using a girl to take Pick's attention, which clearly worked for a while until he found out the truth after Rome figured it out. Sad that Rome did all the work to make this happen for them. It was great to see Pick hit the guy and admit to fighting for Rome for like 1 min and Rome forgave him way too fast. That relationship will not last clearly no real showing of feeling or emotion between them showing the progress I was hoping to see for them at the end. The Series was a disappointment for me.Was this review helpful to you?

Not as good as the first one
The strong impact created by the 1st season was sadly gone from this season.The good:
1. OffGun, need i say more?
2. Krist, its refreshing to see him.
The bad:
1) i used to like the straight couple before but now they're just whiny little waste of screen time;
2) where are the dogs, its Puppy Honey without the dogs???;
3) what's up with the 5-minute opening credits and 5-minute closing credits, the run is 8 episode and you waste 10min per episode just for unnecessary crap;
This drama was horrible. There was so much potential but I don't know who dropped the ball on this one. Three of the actors in this drama are so good in others but I did not feel the chemistry at all. Ugg like another reviewer said, save yourself from watching this. I had really hoped to like it but even after watching it two times to understand what was going on I was still left wondering "what the heck did I watch?" Just like my bad romance this drama deviated so much from what could have been a sweet story.
Overall NOT WORTH IT AT ALL

The tone of the second season was very much different from the first one. The first one was all humor and mad shenanigans. The second one was about how their relationships changed when, well, life got in the way: classes, internships, long distance… My favorite part was the Pick & Rome arc. Because they actually got a real arc this time around. And it was a suspenseful one! Whereas Emma & Porsche got the “life got in the way” arc, Pick & Rome had to deal with an obsessive stalker who was trying to drive them apart. Especially Off Jumpol could really flex his acting muscles here. And by the end of the drama, I could honestly say that I added Pick & Rome to my list of favorite BL couples.
My favorite ep was definitely the finale because we had the chance to see them all together again, to watch them actually talk and deal with their issues like the adults they were. And the drama is truly at its best when the gang is together.
