A promising BL series hindered by lackluster lead performances

This series falls short of its potential, primarily due to lackluster lead performances that fail to ignite the necessary sparks. It fails to deliver a compelling portrayal of the central relationship and struggles to engage on an emotional level.

The series follows the lives of 4 college students, each with their own unique personalities and aspirations. At its core, 2 Moons focuses on the evolving relationship between Wayo and Phana. Their journey is filled with ups and downs and you are taken on an emotional rollercoaster as they navigate the challenges of love, acceptance and personal growth.

Bas's portrayal of Wayo is disappointing and lacks depth and often comes across as wooden and unconvincing. His limited range of expressions fails to capture the nuances of Wayo's growth, resulting in lack of believability and emotional resonance.
Similarly Thanit's depiction of Phana fails to make a lasting impact. Due to lack of required intensity, he is unable to to show the character's internal conflicts and evolving feelings. And the most egregious part being that their walk-off the scene is always awkward like they are struggling to put one step ahead of the other. Also there is an utter lack of chemistry between the 2 leads making their interactions seem forced and the romance unbelievable.

While this series may have had the potential in terms of its storyline and supporting cast, the weak lead performances significantly hinder its overall quality. The result is a series that falls flat, struggling to engage viewers and leaving them longing for more compelling performances.
