Thank you!! I thought it was just my computer giving me problems haha. Line just had to have an issue right when I was really curious to know why Yim was kissing Joe in the teasers haha

I actually believe P'New stuck pretty closely to the novel, based on some things I've read from Lazy Subber, though he may have changed TinCan a little bit. It's a little confusing b/c LZ and others said the rejection is what happened with TinCan at that moment in the novel, and probably when they filmed it they were expecting to make a Season 2 so TinCan would eventually get their happy ending. But then P'New has said that he wanted to make the ending more realistic and sadly not everyone gets happy endings in real life, so he chose to end TinCan that way. But from what I gather overall I think everything stuck pretty close to the timeline of events in the novel; we just didn't get to see TinCan's story continue. But I've definitely read from several people who have read the novel that they have a happy ending lol. Hopefully all that made sense! It was kind of rambly haha.

I'm hoping that with TinCan's huge fan base (I definitely think it rivals, if not overpowers AePete's) and the disappointment of many, they'll get their own series or movie to make things right.

If you haven't already started, I'd recommend watching Crossing the Line (also called Boundary Crossing) or Obsessed first. Those are my favorites. Also, I haven't watched Right or Wrong yet, but I see it get a lot of praise as well. I think those are probably the most popular ones of the compilation. :)

Ohh yeah I've seen my fair share of sad endings haha. Just gotta know in advance whether to prepare my heart and keep my tissues handy lol. Thank you for the info!!

Without revealing too much, is the ending sad? Debating on if I should watch now haha. Would you still recommend it?

Ahh okay, I might do that then. Thank you!! :)

Yeah I feel like their story line is the weakest of them all. Nothing has really happened since episode 1. Where's the plot?? lol

Do you have a recommendation of which one to watch first, or does it matter? I'm tempted to watch this one first since it's the prequel, but maybe there's a reason to watch Kiss: The Series first instead?

Of course! Hopefully our TaeTee dreams will come true haha.

P.S. Yesss TinCan was my absolute favorite!! I was so devastated with their ending but I'm looking forward to the English translation of the novel coming out so that I can see their happy ending.

Ahh okay that makes sense now that I know about the Thai pronunciation. Thank you!!

Quick question: Is Ter's character (Amm's boyfriend) named Cable or Bern? On here it says Cable but in GMM-TV's subs it says Bern. It is the same person right? Or am I totally missing something lol

Watching her for the first time right now in Friend Zone and gosh I love her so much!

Pop and Oat definitely had some sweet moments, but I think my issue is that their story felt a bit too character-driven, and the only one of those two I cared about was Oat (for some reason I could never get fully on board with Pop lol). I guess I do like a bit more dynamic plot line haha.

Yeah, I hear ya about the 2 Moons thing. I wasn't as huge a fan of that drama as some people are, so the cast change isn't totally devastating, though all of Season 1 was really charming (and I kind of relate because I'm feeling the same way knowing that Love By Chance might get a remake in another country, which makes me sad a little, even though it's just a remake and not a complete replacement like 2 Moons lol). BUT I think it's terribly rotten what happened to Best, Copter, etc. and feel so horrible for them. I think I'll give the new one a shot and support the new actors, but I really don't like Motive Village for what they did.

Also, you may know this already, but somewhat good news is that Tae and Tee are supposedly getting their own novel-based drama soon called Triage (I think I read that it's been confirmed?). I'm excited for that because I was really looking forward to their couple scenes in 2 Moons but then....yeah.

Oooooh it looks like he's going to be in an upcoming movie (guessing BL? His part anyway) called Blood Valentine!! There's no page on here yet, but I saw a clip of the movie on IG. Here's the link: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo5TCwoBmBp/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet. Someone in the comments provided the name of the movie.

Ahhhh okay I misunderstood; I thought the director was the same. Now I can be sure to side eye the correct person haha.
Thanks for clearing that up!

Ok so now that we know Mew didn't get cast for 2 Moons 2 (sorry boo ☹), I'm really going to need them to make a Season 2. Even though Season 1 wasn't the best, and I really didn't care for Oat and Pop (soooo boring to me), I need closure for Pree and Rambo. I need them to have a happy ending, preferably together but I guess I'll settle if they're apart as long as they're happy lol. Seems like now Mew and Art are starting to mend things, so maybe any potential negative effect that would have on making Season 2 has lessened.

Ahhh right, right. I did read that as well about the discrepancy in rights. I couldn't remember exactly who owned the rights to what, so I didn't want to try to get into that and end up misspeaking lol.

Re Newyear, yeah I don't really know more than what's in the links. That translation certainly doesn't put him in a good light, and basically everyone is saying it's the director's fault. Not sure if he's solely to blame or if he's just taking the heat for someone else's decision, but either way it's really stupid that someone who could potentially give an amazing portrayal would be rejected merely because he's gay.

Sorry for the rambles lol

Unfortunately it seems pretty legit. :( I actually didn't know the director was gay, which made it more surprising, so I double checked to make sure I had the right drama. In doing so, I found this video which was translated by Lazy Subber. At the 0:21 mark it talks about only wanting straight men to play the roles (I guess gay men can't interpret the role as well, no matter how skilled they are *eye roll*). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=el6WuNTxBh0&feature=youtu.be. Newyear is talked about later in the video, starting at 1:31.

It's also discussed in this forum, specifically about Newyear: https://forums.soompi.com/en/topic/400822-thai-drama-2017-two-moons/?page=13.

I wish I could find where I read about the author not liking the original cast, because I hate to make a statement without support, but I read from so many sources and I couldn't remember exactly where I saw it. Also apparently there were a lot of complaints about the acting from the first cast, so maybe that's part of why the author didn't want to continue with them, assuming the latter part is true.

Not sure if y'all have seen, but Lazy Subber posted something on her FB page. Apparently P'New has been contacted by a director from another country asking about the copyright to LBC so that they can do a remake. I'm not sure if they just want to purchase a license or the outright copyright. P'New hasn't decided yet, but a lot of fans (Thai and international) are against it. Several people commented that they're happy, but I don't know, it makes me kind of sad. I'm worried that if P'New sells the copyright, then it will make him less likely to continue the series. In the very least, I hope he only licenses it so that he still retains ownership of the series and it would be easier for him to continue if he decides to.

Ughh I can see this turning into another Love By Chance which, funnily enough, people were comparing the drama with that to the drama with 2Moons. I also don't think it's entirely the director's fault, which makes it even more unfair if he's getting the most amount of hate (though I have to be honest, I do kind of side eye him because allegedly he refused to cast Newyear in a role for Season 1 solely because Newyear was gay and he wanted straight males only, which if true is a load of crap). Aside from the drama with God's manager, I also read somewhere that the author of the book didn't like the actors from Season 1 so she/he didn't want to proceed with the same ones (not sure how accurate that is or where the person got their facts from though so it could just be speculation).
