I've only hear about people skipping scenes that they don't like and would be like "what if something happen that…
i used double speed and skipped a lot and it still didn't make the series enjoyable for me... i also dropped it once and i'm now in the process of finishing it but i honestly have to force myself to watch at this point (which is sad bc i liked it a lot in the very beginning)
i think it's subbed now (see here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLS3YhF8zMhGQwfN4Ol7JN_merzxTTKWb3) but…
please check past the first few minutes, i think there are proper english subtitles after the ads and the opening sequence edit: i just checked again and apparently they stopped subbing after the second part of episode 2 so i guess it's a work in progress
Just out of curiosity. Not arguing, not judging. Just want to know your point of view.Why do you prefer them being…
I really like your version of their dialog and I'd also love for BL dramas to normalize guys being gay/bi/pan before meeting their SO or at least stop being so passive aggressive in showing that a guy isn't actually attracted to men but there is this one man who's the exception. I get that they're trying to be romantic but I don't think it's the right way to go about it. In the case of Tau and Otep, I think it would be pretty amazing to introduce demisexuality in order to explain Tau's attraction to Otep, regardless of his gender, as a result of the strong emotional bond they had already formed. That's just wishful thinking though and I know it's a bit too much to ask seeing as there are still many LGBTQ+ - related matters that BL writers need to educate themselves on and portray better.

I haven't read the novels either but maybe book-Tine just isn't the confronting type. I do agree that they should've worked a bit more on that particular personality trait because then I wouldn't get so frustrated when Tine did nothing to turn Mil down; I would just be used to it by now.

Yeah, I see your point. But I don't think that what Sarawat did can count as stalking since he attended those concerts in hopes of seeing Tine and getting close to him but he didn't actually follow him around. Basically, he tried to play fate's role and make them meet again sooner rather than later. Also, I think that Tine and Green doing the "stalking" didn't seem so wrong at first because the characters themselves seem harmless, whereas Mil seems to be more dominant and demanding.
I think it is more complex than that. Toxic relationships are not as rare as we think. series/dramas/movies at…
I just hope people start treating it as a wrong kind of approach and not condone it in shows that thousands of young people watch. I'm not saying it isn't a part of life because for many people it sadly is, but that doesn't justify it being portrayed as okay.
I think people are being really harsh on the series, the actors and the plot right now. I understand you all are very disappointed by the lack of physical affection shown in the show, but I don't believe the chemistry between the protagonists is lost. Just because they're not being all lovey-dovey 24/7 does not mean they don't like each other. There are a lot of moments between them that normal friends or best friends wouldn't find themselves in (unless they were secretly in love with each other). I personally don't show affection that often, even though that makes some people in my life think that I don't like/love them enough. People should just take into consideration that not all of us express our feelings in the same way. I do see some behavior that I don't like (such as Man's stalking) but after watching so many Thai BL's I'm not surprised anymore (which is horrible tbh). I was rooting for 2gether being the exception to the portrayal of this shitty behavior as normal (because I lost all hope on TharnType after seeing how many times Tharn tried forcing himself on Type), but we can't be that surprised after seeing how Wat (and then Mil) was treating Tine as a possession. I just wish that this kind of mindset can be seen for what it really is - toxic and unacceptable - and stops being used as a plot idea for Thai shows.
I didn't watch GMA because I don't like body swap (except for History 1), and I haven't read the WRU book, but…
Thank you for letting me know! I did find the translations you mentioned on wattpad but I wasn't 100% they were the official ones. I was also kinda hoping that there was a full translation available, which I had somehow missed during my online search... Anyway, I'm really glad that the author will be releasing one as well but I think I'll have to start reading the wattpad versions for now because I'm already invested in the two main couples and the week-long wait between episodes is killing me.

That is so sweet, I'd love to have seen that part included in the series. If you don't mind me asking, where did you find the English translation of the novel? I've been searching for a week and I haven't found it anywhere online.
it's me, i'm bitches
