Both series are rather similar (at least in their category, theme and style) but 2gether is a series that brightens the mood, the humor is great, the actors' chemistry is everywhere, the sequencing is correct, the storyline catchy.... I agree with you, I think Why R U started rowing harder since 2gether's first episode aired... XD

Disappointed by Why R U? I found comfort in 2gether... Green is definitely my favorite character in this series. I like him so much (as much as I like Gun, the actor), I can watch his scenes for hours without getting tired *-*

Artistic makeup does it. Moreover it's also cultural and evolutional... as it seems a banalized abnormality in Y/A BL series to proceed that way (most likely to satisfy the predominantly-feminine audience). If such a thing happens in a Wastern show, gay or not, I think the whole production would be ridiculed whereas it seems to be normal in Asia. For a Westerner like me, it's unusual but it's also fascinating. The cultural dissimilarities should be promoted and accepted, I think!

I am so happy that he gets main roles. He deserved much better than a secondary role in My Tee.

I will just reply to your last remark. Korn and Knock don't get together until the end because this is supposed to be their story before Bad Romance. Seen from a reversed perspective, the ending of TWM happened way before the story of Bad Romance so there's nothing wrong about the drama ending that way as it continues in Bad Romance :)

As for the rest, I prefer not to comment as my own vision of love is probably worse than TWM's.

I agree with you. For having watched this drama about 5 or 6 times, I think Knock was even willing to kiss Korn (having sex with him was something neither planned). I think he was a pent-up bi and alcohol unlocked something in him at the moment... judging from the way he was looking at Korn after the girls left. Moreover, no man falls for another if he isn't gay or bi from the start.

Probably my groundless illusions lol

It's okay. I considered re-reading better than any explanation I'd give you lol

o.O............ something broke in me!

I think before proceeding to any kind of comparison, one should determine the parameters of comparison first. You can't compare a Prius and a Hummer .... unless you're Jeff Dunham, of course lol

I think My Tee was much worse than this (terrible acting, nonexistent intrigue, messed up storyline, chopped development, unbalanced episodes...). My Tee was the apocalypse of cinematography LMAO

Very accurate review. I love it and agree on everything you say!!! *-*

I am gay (some here think I am a woman lol) and I relate in some ways to the story and what both couples had to face, but, and it's only my personal point of view, I think, as gay people, we have a responsibility to our community. If we don't pinpoint what goes wrong in the shows we watch, BL or not, if we don't try to be objective sometimes and list the things that can be improved, we lessen our chances to see better shows being aired in the future. I think the phase of blind support to every director who works on a gay show is over, it's time to be sharp with our judgments and be demanding, it's the only way to increase gay cinema's standing and thank the artists back.
Although I don't agree on everything you said, I agree on some--mostly the "not so good stuff" and I am happy to see that you highlighted your opinion with examples, it helped me see the show almost differently. Thanks :)

"The story of the love of a teenager who seems to be busy. The relationship is different, but no love will come to serve the satisfying, like pillows and their virginity."

Seriously, this plot should be framed and hung in the "Temple of GAY" for posterity's sake. I can't stop laughing whenever I read it. But I still added it to my "to-watch" list for the sake of Copter and Kim lol

If a show doesn't keep me on my toes from the beginning to the end, I'd drop it. I like suspense, a lot of it, otherwise I get bored easily.

I guessed that he was not Cheng's half-sibling when a lot of people started dreading a possible incest... lol So, I am glad that I was right on this (I didn't know before you tell me, I just tend to be suspicious of flamboyant twists, they are all smoke and mirrors most of the time).
I am also glad that I had a correct idea about most of it, it spares me the disappointment of watching the whole series for nothing.
As for the reason why he wants to stay in Taiwan, I think it may be known before the end (if the series isn't chopped lol), and there are different reasons that can push Cheng to stay in Taiwan: Lin Xun apart, maybe he wants to stand on his own feet away from his father's influence, maybe he wants to "walk in his mother's wake" and know that part of his familial past, maybe it's for an all different reason... unfortunately, I don't feel like watching to find it out, perhaps the last episode but no more. Lack of suspense kills my motivation :/

I think you should re-read what I said.

I said it two weeks ago in a comment below. So, I will just copy and paste (I wrote this comment when I watched the 2nd episode. I barely watched the third before putting it on-hold):
".........At the end Cheng will be the one to find Lin Xun and bring him home, and when his father will protest against their relationship, Cheng will say that he still didn't want anything belonging to the Yuan family, all he wants is his father's blessings and acceptance for them to be together..."

This actor is way too talented to be getting so little roles. I discovered him 2 years ago with Method and rare were the actors who gave me a better first impression. So, Korean movies directors, hurry up and give him more roles, main roles would be even better!!!!

I am dropping this. I tried watching it at first, and then put it on-hold for some time, but I don't feel like watching it anymore. I will just watch the last episode, just to see if my intuition is correct. My interest for this show is dead as I had a precise idea about the ending from the second episode!
