A surprisingly good ending to a very draggy series

I had placed this series on hold at the end of watching episode sixteen due to the fact that I was getting annoyed with everything- the storyline, the acting- EVERYTHING! So, I watched the remaining four episodes and have now completed this series. And I must say...I was somewhat pleasantly satisfied with the final two episodes of this series.

Story- 6.5/10
I was originally going to give this a 5 due to the fact that after the ML and FL lead got together (which I think is between episode 7 to 10), the story went downhill for me. However, the last two episodes had me in my feelings and actually crying as the story progressed. So, due to that, I am going to give this series a 6.5.

Acting-7/10
I originally hated all of the actors acting, except for the one who plays Ouuyang Kai. He was the only reason why I stayed with this series as his character went thorugh a change for the better. And then especially at the ending where he gave up his life for En Shi (who, by the way annoyed the hell out of me during this whole series, except for the remainig three episodes). However, nearly everyone's acting improved for me in the final three episodes, except for who playdd Lu Bo Ya. Yeah, that character was annoying me so much that I actually think I may have enjoyed the series better if they did a better job with thier big bad.

Music-7.5/10
The music was beautiful.

Rewatch Valu-5.5/10
Here's the thing, if I take out the unnecessary episodes from when the ML and FL got together to when they knew who was behind all the drama, I believe this series may have been better. Due to that, I'm not that eager to rewatch this series so quickly.

Overall-6.5/10
Well, what can I say? What I liked about this series can't really help me score it higher than a 6.5. I would only recommend this series to someone if they literally have nothing to watch and they want to kill time in between something that they want to watch.

Beautiful series

The first time I saw YT recommend this series, I didn't pay attention to it. But then I saw people here talking about it and that got me curious about GameBoys that I decided to give it a go. And I must say...I am glad that I did as it did not dissapoint it!

Story-10/10
With the simple story of two boys meeting online as Gav beat Cario to evolve into them falling in love with one another (Gav had a crush on Cario) to them dealing with jealous ex-boyfriend's, the death of Cario's dad, meeting each other for the first time, jealousy and abandonment issues- these boys went through all of this and set in the background of COVID-19. They had me crying for them during thier pains, trying to be like Pearl telling them 'get back together, you knuckle heads!' And just seeing how everything played out. And it was done beautifully and realistically.

Also, I would like to add, I felt the kiss here more than in a recent Thai BL that finished this Friday, cause it was a part of thier story- not something just added to apparently appease fans who were furious from the first season due to the lack of kisses.

Acing/Cast- 10/10
All of the actors were phenomenal. Even Terrence and Wesley, who I have a small hatred for cause of them destroying the happiness of my boys. Cario's mom and brother were a breath of fresh air, as they understood what he was going through. I am so grateful in having such positive family members in a BL series, cause some Thai series don't have this and it annoys me.

I LOVED Peral! In the beginning when we are introduced to her, I must say I didn't fascinate her. But as the series progressed, for me she was like us fans, trying to get Gav and Cario together, because you know how much they care for eachother. And in the final episode when Wesley and Terrence were flirting, her reaction was exactly my reaction!

The actors who played Gav and Cario did a fantastic job and I hope that they get more roles in the Philippines.

Music-10/10
The music is top notch that it has me signing along with it!

Rewatch Value-10/10
Although this show made me cry a lot, I would watch it again and cry some more. Everything about this series was perfect that I actually feel to binge watch it very soon.

Overall-10/10
This is the first series that I would recommend to anyone who wants to watch a BL series, even overtaking SOTUS. I love this series so much that I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone.

This series was subbed by a kind subber that allowed us fans to watch this series till end. It was a little predictable, especially coming down to the end, but it was an okay series.

Story-5.5
I guess cause of how long it took for the series to be fully subbed, that I honestly forgot some of the storyline. So, I advise people to watch it all in one go or watch it over again from the beginning. Cause I have honestly forgotten what happened in the earlier episodes. I still gave it a five for what I do remember and thw last two episodes. I am also giving this score cause of how Toss stood up to his wife, who abandoned him and his baby for Tin, who he now loved. And also for Cho's mother- she was cool. I did give it a low score cause I honestly am annoyed with third characters, who think they deserve a chance to be with the two MC's. And also that third couple ( eventhough they weren't fully a couple) kind of felt a wee bit forced for me as the girl really didn't show that she liked the guy. I mean, okay, they are now together but still, it felt off to me.

Acting/Cast-5
Their acting was okay, as this is looking like their first acting gig.

Music-5
Music was really not here or there with me, which is usually my norm.

Rewatch Value-4
I don't really think that I will watch this series anytime soon as there really was nothing that held my interest to say that I will watch it again.

Overall-5
It started off cute and different but then the last two episodes just annoyed me so much. I can't even remember half of the things that happened in this series due to how long ago I started to watch it.

Let me start off by saying- all shows that I start to watch, I go in with the full ten stars. It's when the shows progresses over the episodes, my ratings may change or they will stay the same. As for the year 2020, I have yet to given a full ten stars for a series that was made in 2020 and completed in 2020. This series is the same. It started off sooo good for me that I honestly thought that I would give it a ten as well as I thought it would dethrone Sotus as the BL King for me. This was not the case, though.

Story- 8/10
While this story has been told already with Love Sick and My Boy of a fake relationship that then turns into a real one, 2gether the series started off differently. I loved the interaction between the leads and the progress of their 'relationship' throughout every episode- I actually felt giddy and happy by it! (Especially when you just had Sarwat dropping these pick up lines on such a clueless Tine as well as his constant obsession with Tine's chest). Yes, I know that there were some editing issues here and there, but it didn't really effect the story for me, in my opinion. The friends of both of Sarwat and Tine made it enjoyable as they add the comic relief as well as some wise words to the story. I also loved Green! I didn't like him in the beginning, cause I thought that his character was annoying and pushy, but he grew on me! I am gonna miss him! What got me annoyed about this series was episode twelve. Pam was introduced and we now have someone coming in on the second to last episode to confess her love to Sarwat. If whoever wrote the script and the director had just placed this part like some episodes before, I wouldn't hate it as much as I did last week. I still feel like this plotline was not needed for the boys (as it is so used up in BL series so much that it is starting to annoy me!) However, the boys were able to overcome this obstacle and be boyfriends in the end!
I might add that also in that dreaded episode twelve, I didn't like how the supporting couples were treated as Type treated Man like crap. However, he made it up in the final episode and made me so happy for them. I still think that Mil doesn't deserve Phukong and no one is gonna change my opinion about that!

Acting/Cast-9.5/10
I have stated this since this series started, I was highly impressed by the acting skills of both Bright and Win, as this was both boys first leading role in a series (Win's first acting gig). They entertained me when they were Sarawat and Tine and I felt like their acting was on another level for me. And the supporting characters brought their acting skills as well! I totally loved the screen time (no matter how little) that I got of Green, Man, Boss and Tine's friends! They made this series so much enjoyable for me!

Music- 10/10
Now! I have said this in my previous reviews- music is neither here or there to me in these series, cause I honestly do not pay attention to it-like AT ALL. This was not the case for me with this series. There are only three other OST songs that I will have in a loop in my head from Thai dramas that I may even burst out singing a line to. These are the OST for My Ambulance, the OST for UWMA and the closing OST for The Moment. And now there is 2gether the series opening AND closing songs. I usually skip the intro of series and just jump into the episodes, as I have no real care for the music. That was not the case with 2gether the series. I will play the opening and closing for every episode and hum along with the songs. This series also introduced me to Scrubb, who have excellent music. The soundtrack for this series is one of the best that I have seen in awhile.

Rewatch Value-9/10
Not gonna lie, from episode one to ten- I re watched the same week that it came out, cause of how the story enticed me with their plotline and their acting. However, it lost me a bit on eleven and totally lost me on twelve (thirteen got me back, though). Because of that- the rewatch value went down a bit for me. There is still no hesitation that I will rewatch episodes one to ten and thirteen like that! For the other two-I will have to get the strength and energy to watch them, especially episode twelve.

Overall-9/10
This series was good! I enjoyed it, especially episodes one to ten and thirteen. I will definitely recommend this for others to watch.

It started off good...and then I don't know what happened

When I first started this series, I was happy. Cause while I watched two other supernatural BL's (Ghost Runner and So Much In Love), it started off WAY better than them. But something happened along the way that in the end left me confused and not that eager for a sequel (if they do decide to have one).

Story-6.5/10
I stated before that it started good. And they had some excellent plots in the series. However, they werw timws that I became confused or bored in watching this series. And by watching the series, you can tell who was the bad person( well, at least I could). It left no question about it. Like...you just knew! And then the ending of the series didn't really help it for me. Matter of fact, I was going to give this a 7, but changed it to a 6.5 just because of that ending.

Acting/Cast-6.5/10
I'm going to give a 6.5, cause I felt that no one really shined for me except for Wit and Win. And that was sometimes. Nothing in any of the other actors acting stood out to me.

Music-7/10
The music was okay.

Rewatch Valu-3/10
I'm going on the lower spectrum and give this a three. Cause I was confused andbored in the middle of this series and watching it again is not going to change that for me.

Overall-6/10
Overall I give this series a 6. I felt that they missed an opportunity in twlling a really good story and that's unfortunate. I mean it's the highest that I have given a BL with the tag ghosts, so...yeah. I would not, however recommend this series to others to watch.

Binge-watched this in one go!

I waited for this series to end, so that I can binge watch it. So, today I did just that and watched all six episodes in one go!

Story-8/10
It's nice to see a different storyline from what we are normally watching. Just imagine what some of these BL actors have to go through, just for thier series to be made and to make a name for themselves is heartbreaking. It was nice to see the other side of the BL world with how they control thier lives bw it through what thwy eat, who they must be seen with and also how to handle thier Twitter/ Instagram pages. However, I felt that there were some areas that were lacking (I don't know what it is- it's just a feeling that I have). So for that I gave it an 8.

Acting/Cast-9
Man I am only giving this series a 9due to Michael's acting as Bas! He was f#$ing phenomenal! Especially in the last episode. The other actors acting were good, no doubt. But, Michael...Michael own was on a higher calibre than thiers!

Music-8/10
The music was actually cute and sweet! I like it!

Rewatch Valu-7.5/10
I am not in any rush to rewatch this series right now. When (or if) they do make a second season and if I need a refresh course in this series, then I will rewatch it. But for now, I'm not that eager to.

Overall-8/10
Overall it was an okay-ish series. I don't know why I was expecting something else and I feel like it wasn't delivered to me. However, Michael as Bas saved this show! Hope to see him in more future roles where I will support him!

It was worth the wait

I had to wait sooo long for the eng subs for this on LINETV. And, shockingly, it was kinda good. I'm still in shock cause I thought that the series was going to go one way but it totally went another way- which I did not see coming and works for the series.

Story- 10/10
Three graduates are trying to live the dreams that they desire with thw help of Coach Mix. Of course, during the course of the ten episodes, they come across problems and issues which affect them from reaching thier goals. But although they met issues that were very discouraging, in the end, they found thier dreams on a rough road where they may have started over but at least was the road that they choose for themselves, learning from the obstacles that they had to overcome.

The later episodes of this series were not what I was expecting. It actually showed me to never give up on your dreams. You can still succeed even if you fail- just get back up and try again. The three main characters were able to succeed in this with the help of thier friends/ families. Truly made the series wonderful.

Acting/Cast-9/10
Okay now here's the thing- I honestly don't have any issues/problems with any of the actors. Except for Mean. On first watching this I thought that Mean was pigeonholed in this series- cause he basically act the same characters. However, I have realized that maybe Mean's acting is the same for all of his characters- which is honestly annoying. Hopefully his next acting job he is able to show a different side.

Music-10/10
The beginning instrumental OST as well as the ending OST are bangers. I love both!

Rewatch Valu-8/10
I would rewatch this again- there's no doubt about it. But I'm not that eager to due to the acting of Mean . I never realized that someone's acting can turn a person off a series until now.

Overall-9.5/10
In the end it is a good overall series. I don't mind recommending it for other people to watch.

I really don't know what to say. I sat down and watch all three episodes all at once and this has got to be the first series that has dissapointed me this year so far.

Story -5/10
The storyline really didn't capture my attention. I am only giving it a five cause of the supporting characters. I was more invested into them than the MC.

Acting/Cast-6/10
I gave this a six, cause, again, the supporting characters had me invested. I prefered seeing the MC's with thier friends/ families than with each other. Nuea and Vee interacting as friends were more entertaining to me than Nuea and Praram's relationship.

Music-5/10
I really don't pay attention to the music. But the OST was okay for me. Some parts where the music was played in the series was a bit too loud for me, though.

Rewatch Value-1/10
There is no way that I will rewatch this series. I just can't! I'm sorry, but it's a no from me.

Overall-4.5/10
Out of the three different stories, I ranked this the lowest. I won't be watching this again and I just can't recommend it to anyone.

Read More

They did start the majority of the episodes, if not all by giving a warning that this sitcom is made for pure entertainment and that there is no useful knowledge- only drama. The series also state not to ask for any rationality. So, when you watch this series keep that in mind!

Story-8/10
Story? What story? But seriously, they did bring up some important issues and handled them beautifully. However, some weird things did happen in this series that had you shaking your head or laughing out very loudly at it! I did love the MC. Nott actually gave good advice when he spoke to the directly to the audience. Nott and Pun together were also great. The person who stole the show for me was Porpla. I loved this character so much!

Acting/Cast- 9/10
I liked thier acting! They were able to put across the story so well!

Music-8/10
I gave their music an 8 cause the majority of their songs were from WRU? I gave an 8 thier as well.

Rewatch Value-6/10
I may watch this series in the future again, but currently I am not eager to watch it again.

Overall-8/10
This series gave a good message, eventhough we were told to not take it seriously. It was a good show for me!

A cute heratfelt comedy series that did have flaws

I started this series six days ago and waited patiently for the finale. I will say this- when I started it, I didn't expect to fall for the characters as I was a bit weary in watching it. Yes, for me personally, the series had some flaws. But I still found it enjoyable and loved it!

Story-8/10
I am giving this series an eight. Due to these reasons. Firstly, I felt from episodes eight to ten, something with the editing was a bit off and it didn't make the series flow properly. Secondly, what they did with Bam's character- that was not necessary and needed. And finally (and this is not thier fault), when I watch a series that I truly adore, I always get some kind of feelings. Unfortunately, that did not happen with this series- like at all. But all in all, I liked the story.

Acting/Cast-8.5/10
I liked how everyone acted, actually. My all time fav is Duean and Meen. I loved every minute that they were on the screen and I hope those actors are given more roles. I will most definitely support them.

Music-10/10
The music was most definitely the best part of this series. And then when I went and checked and saw who sang the opening and closing OST- I was floored. I feel in love with the music from the first episode. They really did a great job there.

Rewatch Valu-8/10
I liked this series. However, I am not that eager to rewatch it anytime soon. And if I do rewatch it, it may just be the bits of Duean and Meen (not lying here!)

Overall-8.5/10
Overall I give this series an 8.5/10. While it did have some flaws, I did enjoy it and yeah- I would recommended it to people who want to watch a heartfelt comedy BL series.

A series that I wasn't that eager to watch but actually liked in the end

Let me start off by saying the only reason why I watched this series is due to the fact that I eanted to watch 'Our Skyy 2' and this couple was going to be one of the eight couples being used. So, because of that, I started this series. And...I actually liked it!

Story-8/10
I think that if this was told as a simple cute, fluff story without the attempt of angst and trying, but failing to have an antagonist, it would have been one hell of a series. I mean, they tried to add something that wasn't really dealt with nor, to me, was even needed.

I mean, what happened with Thop and his case? It was kind of just brushed over. And also, Thop just forgiving his mom so easily eventhough she knew what the step-father was doing to his sister and did NOTHING about it?! And then you have Gun's mom basically telling Cher that he was not good enough for her son. I mean, it's cool if he wanted to better himself for himself- not for somebody else.

And due to these issues, I give this story an 8.

Acting/Cast-9/10
I adore all the actors in this series. The banter between friends, Force acting kind of stiff, yet cool as Gun. And Book as Cher, although there were sometimes the character did annoy me. I enjoyed Force and Book here more than thier previous series 'Enchante ' ( which was why I really was not that eager to watch this).

Music-8/10
The music was cute and adorable. I'm really going to miss it.

Rewatch Valu-8/10
I surprisingly actually do see myself watching this series soon. Despite it's few flaws, it really was a good series to watch that entertained me.

Overall-8.5/10
Overall, I give this series an 8.5. It's a cute, light and fluffy, with some moments that I did not enjoy as the outcome was not really dealth with. I am now eagerly awaiting for next week for this coulpe in 'Our Skyy 2'.

I feel that something is missing.

I have been waiting for this series for such a long time. And now it has done. While I do love this series, I felt that something is missing from this series for it to be perfect for me.

Pros:
❤️ Beautiful cinematography
❤️ Excellent acting from not just the main actors but from all of the actors (looking at Khaotung Thanawat Ratanakitpaisan. While I didn't really like 'The Eclipse', he got my attention with his acting there. In this series...he impressed the hell out of me).
❤️ Time jumps did not actually annoy me
❤️ Getting to see Earth and Mix again in another series, where they did not disappoint me as well as watching another series from Aof.

Cons:
💔 I felt that something was missing. I really can't explain it better than this. I guess that I had extremely high expectations and it just wasn't able to reach it. Because the series did start off good and... something just went off. But it was able to get back on track by episode 7 and 8. Please note that this is my personal opinion.

In the end I give the story an 8, the acting a 9.5, the music a full blown 10 and the rewatch an 8. Overall, I give this series a 9. I honestly thought that this was going to be my first 10 BL for this year.

Another series completed

And...that's the wnd of the series 'Individual Circumstances.' It's a quick watch for anyone who wants to give it a go.

What I like about it:
☆ the acting was actually okay
☆ the music was okay
☆ guess that I'm immune to kissing scenes because I don't have anything bad to say about thier kisses as it's neither here or there to me.

What I didn't like about it:
☆ I have come to the conclusion that I don't like miscommunication between the main leads. And this miscommunication has lasted them for YEARS and has lated this series for nearly the whole of the series. That didn't sit right with me and annoyed me.

So! Story is a 6. Acting is a 7. Music is a 7 and rewatch is a 4 as I was very annoyed with the synopsis of this series and how it was developed. This in the end not giving me any motivation to consider rewatching it. Overall I give it a 6/10

I actually liked it!

I was actually shocked with this series. Why? Because I actually liked it. The concept was so simple and sweet, and it could be either a hit or miss. And this was actually a hit with me. I didn't have that much expectation for this series as I did for some previous Korean BL's. And this surprisingly was better than them.

The story was just so cute, simple and sweet. It was set in the workplace and guess what? They actually acted like adults! Just shocking to me! And there was a misunderstanding between the MC. And what happened? THEY ACTUALLY TALKED ABOUT IT AND SOLVED THE MISUNDERSTANDING WITHIN THE NEXT EPISODE! LIKE NO LONG BROODING ON THE ISSUE!! I was a bit shock at how the company did not accept Kim Jong Chan as an employee after his internship was done. I enjoyed all seven episodes from beginning to end and the development of Kim Jong Chan and Woo Seung Hyun.

I adored all of their acting from the main characters to the supporting characters. And to realize that this is the second work that I have watched from the actor Moon Ji Yong and the differences from both of his characters in his two series. He has truly impressed me as I honestly did not realize it was the same person. I give this series an 8.5 and I will totally recommend this series to anyone if they are looking for a light, cute, grown-up BL series.

It had it's moments

When this series was announced, I was so super ecstatic as this was one of two Thai BL series that i was waiting for to air in 2022 (the other one will be airing in 2023). And now here we are at the end of this series. And well...it had its moments while some parts I couldn't care less for.

Story-7.5/10
This is the story of Win and Team which i have been waiting for since the end of 'Until We Met Again' in 2019. And... I actually liked their storyline. Yes, there were a few parts that was a wee bit draggy, but I still liked seeing their story unfold. However, what annoyed me was about two and a half out of the four supporting couples. I really did not care about the relationship progression of Pruek and Manow, Bee and Prince and later on about Dean and Pharm (they did not annoy me in the beginning). I did enjoy the supporting couple of Tul and Wan. So, I am glad that they got their happy ending. Also, while i don't like the introduction of the trio A, B, C, I guess they were there for Team to have friends on the swim team. As for that, I'm giving it a 7.5 due to Win and Team and Tul and Wan as I basically just watched this for them.

Acting/Cast- 8/10
The acting was actually kind of good for me. I felt that they were all able to portray their characters good. So for that, I am giving an 8.

Music-7/10
While the music is nice, i had to replay it again to remember it. and while it is catchy, I have to give it a 7 just because of the fact that I couldn't remember the music.

Rewatch Valu-6/10
While I will not be eagerly running to watch this series over again, I must say that I do see myself watching it again, or at least the part with Win and Team and Tul and Wan. So, for that, I will give a 6.

Overall-7/10
Overall, I give this series a 7. It is not one of New's best work, but I am glad that I watched it as I was able to get the story of Win and Team.
