For people complaining over Tine and how he is different from the novel (?) let me tell you all. I am really tired…
Although Tine went from being Mr. Chic to Mr. Weak over the course of two episodes I don’t see anyone saying it’s because he became a bottom or began to exude stereotypical ‘bottom’ characteristics. The series doesn’t have sex in it anyway so to debate top vs. bottom is pointless.
I love vulnerable male characters. My complaint is that Tine went through a transformation that the script doesn’t explain or justify. His personality just suddenly became different. However, my guess is that it was all done to better serve the tired ‘jealousy’ theme of this week’s episode. We’re not talking about artful or subtle writers here.
I know a lot of people worship Krist but for me he's no Nam Joo Hyuk, and furthermore I think he's too old to be cast as a high school student.
Yook Sung Jae was superb in his role in School 2015 and I think it would also be hard to equal or do better than him. I'm not familiar with Kay Lertsittichai, but seeing that Sing is also in the cast makes me think he'd be well-suited to the unpredictable "rebel with a heart of gold" that Yook Sung Jae played.
However, I need to give this a chance. I loved School 2015 so much that I can't resist trying this one out.
Im starting to wonder what the hyper about this show really is? apart from the main characters being absolutely…
It had so much potential. My level of interest has faded a lot over the last two or three episodes. In fact I almost forgot that the new one was being released today, and you can be sure I wasn't like that 3 or 4 weeks ago.
The hype, I think, is about the two guys, especially Bright. As a romantic story the series is becoming a bit of a joke. I really hope they save it somehow during the last two episodes.
I know, what happened to the bracelet? They made such a fuss about it and then seemed to just drop the subject.…
Good point. For dramatic impact I think Mil is definitely the best choice of all the characters to now have the bracelet, since he's Sarawat's bitter rival for Tine, so maybe they'll make it like he found the bracelet on the ground somewhere and pocketed it.
Honestly, the way their relationship is depicted, I don't feel any concern over them breaking up or not. The series hasn't convinced me that they're actually boyfriends who are in love, so if the relationship ends it won't feel like much of a loss.
clearly you have never been in love, or at least to a person of the same gender, cause i deadass relate to how…
"Meow!" Preach, brother!
I get a kick out of how the worlds created by these BL series are populated by all these guys who pair off with each other, one couple after another, but that ain't even close to being real.
A few weeks ago on twitter I saw where someone had mapped out the BL universe created by Mame, the author of TharnType, and holy cow it's like two dozen guys all hooking up or wanting to hook up. If only! lol
Maybe it is because he haven't had a boyfriend eversince and he only like girls before wat came. So it is hard…
Yes... I can imagine Tine being in a daze over everything that's happened. I think he'd be wary of saying the word "boyfriend" to someone as rough and unpredictable as Mil.
Tine is for sure a very insecure person since he will feel threaten by Pam's presence. I mean, Sarawat has shown…
When a guy who's only dated women is suddenly in a relationship with another man, the dynamics can seem confusing. It can feel like having to relearn what it means to be in a relationship and to communicate with your partner. Like, in a culture where the male is expected to be dominant, and that's what you've played at for all of your dating life, how do you adjust to being with someone who can also be dominant?
Tine might also be used to being the pursuer and feel thrown off by the very act of being pursued. That would make him a little uneasy if he thinks his pursuer might also be pursuing someone else.
And if the someone else is the opposite sex, there's that potential feeling of insecurity over the fact that you yourself aren't also a female, so you're not competing on equal turf.
If you boyfriend was lost in the woods, and after searching frantically you finally found him huddled on the ground, wet and injured and cold, would you simply squat down beside him and put a hand on his shoulder while you ask if he's okay?
If you then were able to get him to shelter, away from everyone else, and watch while he viewed a video that you'd made for him months before you'd ever met, where you sing a song by his favorite band in a hope that someday maybe you'd meet him, would you just sit there, apart from him, and not at least hug him close?
If you were outside on a beautiful, clear night, gazing up at the stars with your boyfriend, feeling the wonder of the moment, would you simply stand next to him and not put your arm around him?
If you were sitting next to your boyfriend on the bus and felt tired and decided to take a nap, would you avoid resting your head on his shoulder and instead just lean back in the seat?
If your boyfriend is going to be sleeping next to you in the cabin and it's time for lights out and you're saying goodnight, would you not even kiss him on the forehead? Hug him, maybe?
For me, if I was in any of these situations with my own boyfriend and he avoided contact so studiously, I'd wonder if his feelings had faded and that we might be on the way to splitting up. I'd be concerned.
So, I'm starting to think that what they might be doing in '2gether' is purposely taking all of these common and iconic romantic situations from other movies and shows, where couples *would* show some physical affection toward one another, and teasing us. Maybe it's all just a meta commentary on what people expect from BL or love stories in general ... lure us with a romantic mise-en-scène and then suddenly thwart our expectations at the last second.
Given how much I'd looked forward to this series, and even tried to get my friends who aren't into BL to at least watch the first few episodes because it had such great leads and such a cute story, I'm disappointed. I hope the last two episodes aren't like this one.
(I mean, seriously, when Sarawat and Tine found that abandoned bus and went inside together, I thought they'd finally exchange a little kiss or two. Silly me.)
I haven't seen any comments here asking for "explicit" sex scenes. For me personally I'd like to see a more realistic…
I don't take back any of it. My statement wasn't meant sarcastically.
The series is providing a fantasy scenario for straight females, and that makes its depiction of a gay relationship unrealistic. The lead actor could be Bright or could be anyone, including one of the actors I like.
If by chance '2gether' does start to show Sarawat and Tine doing more than kiss on the cheek (and in a recent interview both Bright and Win say that it will), I'll be interested to see the reaction here.

I was so ready for a kiss when they were gazing up at the stars. What romantic series would squander such an opportunity?

I figured Meanie Mil had somehow stolen it when he was helping Tine with the dust speck in his eye.
