How is wish Oh Aew to move on, and decide to choose another man in his life.. But I guess we can't deny that there always something unexplainable about our heart. No matter how toxic or problematic it is, if that what your heart wants, that what u pursue for.
Ive never been cheated, so I might not really understand the impact of it to a relationship. Personally, I don't like the directors decision to portray Teh as a cheater. But I don't deny the realistic aspects of it. I do know a friend of mine that breakup due to his cheating BF but unable to 4get his BF for yeaaarrssss. He even regret his decision of not forgiving his BF while his BF begging to get him back. Basically, he can't move on as he thought he is. Like what bass say, your heart chose to like only this one person.
It just that TEH has been well loved by audiences despite his flaws in ITSAY, this route as a cheater will only makes his character really unlikeable. I simply can't adore Teh anymore. And for OH, he just become a pitiful character in most common eyes.
But what's great about the direction of this situation is that it portrays what happened between Teh and Oh Aew in a much more positive view than a negative one. While I'm ranting about Teh, Oh Aew took a different turn. Instead of wishing him ill, he able to find happiness to see Teh achieve what he wants. No ego, No ridiculous tantrum. Just showing a mature side of himself. It feel fresh, and opened my eye a bit.
Plotwise, OSTwise, & cinematography.. its true that IPYTM did not beat it's predecessor ITSAY. But it did not make IPYTM any less from other series in market out there. It still has a compelling story, great actings & wonderful OSTs. It just ITSAY is a masterpiece on another level. But their final song: the lyric hit me hard. Major love!
Even watching without Eng Sub, they able to made me cried a river. Last week kiss might not be a 'method acting', but BKPP acting's are. I'm heartbroken.
We just haven’t found places that fits our needs & abilities. Life isn’t only about doing what we love, because what we love doesn’t always fulfill what we need.
I fall in love with the trailers as it really has a refreshing plot.
But ep 1&2 was a bit 'meehhhh'. If compared to other BL drama that currently aired at this moment, the quality of lovely writer fell just a bit behind. Either the sound effects that everyone talking, or the way of the story develop or the selection of scenes. It was just a bit underwhelmed. Not that bad.. Just not up to my expectations..
But we are at ep2. Not much happens yet. Hopefully it will get better in next ep.
I could completely do without the evil guy storyline - it's totally unnecessary and way, way too predictable.…
I actually kind of liking the purpose of the evil guy here. It helps to show more depth on Tian's character towards Pha Pun Dao village. Yes, Torfun provide him a purpose to revamp himself and be devoted to the villagers. But the evil guy plot helps to show how sincere Tian is.
Besides, based on preview ep7.. I guess the evil guy also helps to accelerate Phupha-Tian relationship. Haha
Then Phupha: 'Hold me tighter' 'Do you want to ask me out?' 'This kite is taken' 'I'm also strong'
I know a lot of people wants them to confess n kiss already, but their courtship n flirting stage is very beautiful. I really want them to take this slowly.
When I say ITSAY is the BEST BL drama that I've watched and the series it a tough to beat series for a long run, I can't believe in just 2 months there is another gem came out flawlessly. Especially when I just finished a crappy series, Tharntype 2.
Everyone already knows that the plot story of ATOTS itself is rich n has its own depth. But I've watched few promising BL before that deemed to have a rich plot. But none of it live up to my expectations. Most of it was portrays either 'Boringly' or does not keep to excites me along the way. The 'university' type series is always they fun one even if it is cliche.
But ATOTS brings its ultimate quality. Whether its from cinematography, actings, background music, OSTs, character development, their sexual tension... Everything is a TOP notch. Not even once I skipped or fast forward any part or scene, even if it just a filler scene or non-romantic scenes. They able to grab my whole attention along the way, and fully engrossed with the story development.
Phupha and Tian is the most pleasant BL couple that I've seen. Their love story is a classic/vintage love story of a 2 people ogling each other and fall in love. They didn't talk much about their feelings yet, but they understand each other. So romantic, and so mature. While not communicating, they didn't insert any negative vibe on the love growth and just go along with their feelings naturally. It feels so healing to watch them. The major conflict hasn't come out yet at this point of time, but Im sure they will handle it maturely.
Every episode beats the other one, as it become even better and better. I don't even mind on any kind of story development that they will do for the balance 5 episodes, as I trust ATOTS will only bring the best for its audience.
It's getting better and better. No doubt this series will be one of the best thai series of 2021. Everything just felt right. It's like watching a K-Drama.
Sorry to say, though I love mewgulf.. This season is just really boring for me. Even the hot scene can't make it up on how boring this series is. I think only hardcore fans of mewgulf would love this season. The plot is mellow (not in a good way), an it's anti climatic. I watched a lot of cliché BL, however at least they always have been able to excites me somehow. But for tharntype, none. All flat emotion. I'm unable to cry when they cry, or even angry when something bad happened. It just really booooriiiinnnngggg..... Most of the time I 'double clicked' at right screen to fast forward it.
I have watched tons of BL, fall in love with many BL Couples, but never been once being engrossed to the story this much. At only 3 episode, they showed us more than what usual BLs showed in 10 episodes and it didn't feel rushed. I 'tensed up' while watch each episode. The tense that I felt was enormous, and it is without any kiss scene! This series has just open a whole new universe for me. Has surpassed any other BLs that I watch. I'm impressed.
Now I'm going to search more on the leads: BillkinPP. Will I say goodbye to other BL Couples?
Before I start talking bout the series, I'm here to compliment bright & win. Such a great acting and we can see improvement especially from bright, as Win's acting already bought me since 2gether. They were given a simple plot and script, however still able to make audience to have a roller coaster mood n feelings each episode. Applaud to side couples and actors too. I cried, laugh, happy, jealous, cringe, angry, excite, frustrated.. All kind of emotions.
2gether & Still 2gether, definitely a history in the making for Thai BL series. I've watched many Thai BLs, but this series has a very special place in my heart. They has it flaws, but for me is still one of the best Thai BL as of now. I like that the directors continued with the lighthearted plot of 2gether, and have only a minimal drama in this special episode. Though a lot of haters argues they their portrayals seems like a bromance, never once I felt that. I really felt their love for each other, their shyness and acts were valid for me. All romantic scenes were carefully thought out, and very romantic to its core.
Besides, non of other series makes me this engaged with other viewers. As it has mixed reviews, Ive enjoyed commenting, arguing opinions with other viewers. Usually for other Thai BL, non of the series that I feel worth to fight or stand up for (it just how I feels).
Anyway, If I were to choose to recommend a BL series to my friends that doesn't know BL world, I always and will recommend 2gether and Still 2gether. Is a great series for beginner to start with.
@Brianna YOU could always boycott the show. If you have proof of people being anti-gay (please dont confuse anti-gay…
Are u tagging the wrong person? I do enjoyed and love the series very much. TOO much. And I'm not the one who started or slander anyone on the anti-gays. Hahaa.
U must have been through a lot on 'defending' the gay rights as it makes u being sooo skeptical to even slander…
Another one who make a big issue from a metaphors. And judging/assuming about another person from a statement. Anyways..
1) LGBTQ voice is important, anyone can voice out the issues of gays from this series as its clearly a BL. but certain people being overboard which does not even relate or respect to the message or portrayals from the series. Again, this is just a lighthearted romcom THAI BL series that able to attract a large audience regardless of nationality, sexuality and preference. 2) Everyone can give criticism and opinion. Mine too. Commenting is 2 way street, which I also have been in both street for this series. But the above statements is beyond of what's happening that even slander others. And as this series has a large audience it leads to a larger group of people who trying to find the littlest fault that they can point out rather than being constructive. While I tried to be understanding and ignores it, it just annoys me.
U must have been through a lot on 'defending' the gay rights as it makes u being sooo skeptical to even slander…
Sexual assault is not OK for all world not only BL. Yes, I live in a country that still shameful of gays and not accepting them, so I know the struggle that gays faced here. You should not ridicule people knowledge and views just because u experience it differently.
It's great that there are other series that have the healthy gay relationship that u wanted. But don't assume every gay relationship must be 'healthy' according to ur standard. This series may not satisfy u, but it did reach out to others and open others mind to accepting gays in its own way.
You tend to judge and slander people u didn't know based on ur own thought. Reminder, people will do the same to you.
I find it hilarious all these people who defend this series. You clearly don’t know a single thing because you…
U must have been through a lot on 'defending' the gay rights as it makes u being sooo skeptical to even slander the series maker as anti gays n homophopic.s. LOL.
Btw, while u find it hilarious to the people who defend this series.. I find it absurd that u talk about 'true gay relationship' from other countries at this Thai BL romcom series. Its thai culture so let them show the audience in Thai ways. Plus, it just a love at first sight BL series. Don't make it seems like its a LGBTQ documentary that has false message to audience.
It's a good acting. Not many actors can do that. For this one he managed to cry on a simple scripted scene. Try…
U clearly an anti. But let me refine my statement as maybe its too general; Not many Newbie Actor. Especially thai BL actors. Win crying acting: Still a good act in my eyes and I guess many others too. Considering the light script or plot for that scene, he still able build up his emotion and pull it off.
Ive never been cheated, so I might not really understand the impact of it to a relationship. Personally, I don't like the directors decision to portray Teh as a cheater. But I don't deny the realistic aspects of it. I do know a friend of mine that breakup due to his cheating BF but unable to 4get his BF for yeaaarrssss.

At this point I kinda regret to be Teh apologist. But still gonna see how ep 4 or 5 make up for Teh. Arrghhh!
We just haven’t found places that fits our needs & abilities. Life isn’t only about doing what we love, because what we love doesn’t always fulfill what we need.
Find a place that fits, so we can grow everyday.

Nothing else to say, big clap to GMMTV
Conclusion: This is a very boring, poorly executed and overall just a bad series. Don't waste ur time, stop at season 1.
