Still hits right in all the feels

Even if a lot of people were disappointed with how this season panned out, personally, I still loved it just as much as the first season. I rarely like second seasons but this one is an exception.

Sure I was also infuriated with Teh to the core when he did that to Oh-Aew. But how it was portrayed was so realistic that I felt it in my bones. I was crying my heart out when it happened. My biggest what if though is that "What if Jai actually wanted to snatch Teh away from Oh Aew? Will Teh really break up with Oh-Aew?" But I wanted to take the story as it is and my what if will have to take its rest.

I loved everything that they tackled in this season. We saw how couples grow up to be their individual person. We saw dreams getting shifted along the way (I was so torn about who to side when Oh Aew decided to stop acting). We saw how a temptation is so easy to come by when the relationship is already so fragile. We saw how a relationship is not all rainbows and butterflies. We saw Teh and Oh-Aew's journey. Billkin and PP embodied Teh and Oh-Aew so perfectly.

The directing and cinematography are still one of the bests I have seen in Thai dramas. It wasn't as aesthetic as it was when the location was set in Phuket but it still visually stunning. Rounding up the best things about this show is the OST. I want to kiss whoever is the musical director of both seasons because it is chef's kiss. The songs and background music amps up all the feels.

Overall, I am recommending all ITSAY fans to make sure to watch the second season because it is worth it.
