2 Moons 2 (2019)

Better than expected!❤️

I watched 2Moons2 directly after 2Moons so i thought the cast change would be horrible for me. At first it was weird to get to know the new actors.
But it was suprisingly easy. The Cast was great and in the End i liked it much more than the cast from season 1!

I was very happy that MingKit and ForthBeam got more screentime in that season.. I melted away every time MingKit appeared. THEIR KISS NEAR THE END OF THE SEASON i- TT

If you liked 2Moons you'll love 2Moons2! I was a bit sad about the ending but i hope 2Moons3 will continue at the same point. Can't wait!

I've watched the first season and the second season for at least five times each by now. At first I did not want to watch Season 2 because of the casting change but curiosity got the better of me. Mea culpa. :-)

After watching both seasons many times, I have to say that I still prefer Bas as Wayo. While Earth did a good job in the 2nd season, I think that Bas' characterization of Wayo in Season 1 is more believable and endearing. Bas as Wayo has a good combination of innocence and strength which makes his character a good foil for the arrogant P'Pha. I especially loved the piano scene in Season 1 where Wayo was narrating how he became the moon of the science faculty and dedicating the song to P'Pha. Kudos also to the one who made the song arrangement. It was really a heartfelt and touching scene.

Moreover, although Godt (season 1) is more handsome than Ben (season 2) as P'Pha, I have to admit that Ben and Earth (Wayo) have more on-screen chemistry. There were just some scenes in Season 2 that I find Ben's acting to be a bit "dry" (like the facial expressions and bodily actions are not apt to the scene). Maybe it is the acting per se (need more workshops?) or the script (or both?).

Anyway, what I liked in Season 2 is the development of the MingKit couple. Kim's portrayal of the bestfriend Ming in Season 1 is quite on point and honestly quite funny. However, Joong (Ming) and Nine (Kit) in Season 2 appear to be much closer to each other in real life which I think translated to better chemistry for the couple on screen. The banter between MingKit is much more exciting in Season 2, I promise. ;-)

Finally, what I loved most in Season 2 is the actualization of the ForthBeam tandem. While the actors portraying Forth (Tae) and Beam (Tee) in Season 1 are both goodlooking and also good actors, I think I did not see any scene where these two had any relevant dialogue to each other more so not even a hint of a budding romance in Season 1 which is supposedly in preparation for Season 2 (like the MingKit couple). For me, the most talented actor in 2 Moons 2 would have to be Pavel. His portrayal of the character Forth is excellent - tough and simple but sensitive. He more than makes up for the shyness and elegance of Dome's character Beam. Bravo Pavel!

Although I still love Bas as Wayo, there's nothing we can do about the fact that the cast change happened. We can just hope for a much better Season 3 soon. Best of luck to the actors and production team of 2 Moons 3. Can't wait to see the characters back again soon. :-D

Way better than expected

Ook now now coming to this season, definitely I was little hesitant to watch, but what brought me in 2 moons 2 after the disastrous 2 moons season 1, that is I won't say was very good or extraordinary..But more than what I can imagine..And I can say I'm happy watching 2 moons season 2...I was kind of sceptic should I watch this? Why? After 2 moons the series , and definitely I didn't watch this season after completing 2 moons season 1...But then watching few clippings of this season in youtube made me think it's good, I should atleast try to watch...And like this here I'm .. So first foremost coming to the cast, as well all knowing in all the original six of the actors are replaced in this season..So people would have thought before seeing the series should they watch it or not? Because I know one can't adept easily to the cast they first saw..And not even one the whole cast totally changed...But that was not at all a problem for me in my case.. Frankly speaking I was happy and little sad too.. Happy for the part that Bas isn't there in this season, his acting in 2 moons 1 made me so mad...But then God was not there in this season but ook , Ben did a perfect job and I really loved his character of phana he played.. And definitely more than happy that we got earth in this season, definitely earth is way to good for wayo's character..His acting really made me happy.. Atleast not like Bas whose expression was the same throughout the season 1.. Earth was frankly perfect for wayo's character for me.. I really liked Ben and Earth as phana and Wayo in this season.. Coming to ming and kit...this couple made me sad, as becoz I was really expecting Kim and copter to play in this series..No one could have better acted than both of them...I really missed them in this season..But after watching joong and nine, I can't say they were bad.. Really they made the character of ming and kit adorable.. Really liked this couple in this season..And lastly forth and beam, I never expected anything from this couple..Becoz in season 1 we got the other 2 couples story, forth and beam we didn't get any of this couple story..But yes 2 moons 2 equally focussed on all the three couples..Got to see forth and beam story.. which again is not my so favourite couple ( ship) But damn Pavel is the most handsome guy I felt in this 2 moons 2 more handsome than Ben..He definitely has a aura, and this made his character as forth more interesting.. Totally loved it...
Now coming to the storyline, I actually didn't think they would start the story from where the whole 2 moons started, this thing actually made me think is the story again going to be the same like in season 1 , of phana and Wayo taking 6- 7 episodes like that to know each other and after dating also it didn't felt they were dating..No hugs, holding hands, leaving kisses all these..But no 2 moons 2 didn't do that..I was very reluctant to watch, as first episode only I got to know 2 moons 2 starting that the show is only a re- capitulation of what comprised in season 1 whole 12 episodes..So I felt like quitting it ..but then I thought I started it so let's watch it..And yes, after probably 5 episodes we got the other half of the story of phana and Wayo dating, their problems, jealousy, kisses , and damn yes this made me happy...If anyone watched season 1 first I guess u can skip those 4 episodes like that, becoz the 4 episodes comprised the entire season 1 entire story, in a short way...But after 5 episodes is where it caught my attention..And then I liked how it progressed of phana and Wayo dating, ming & kit, forth & beam story...And I guess this season totally did a justice to all the 3 pairs..Showing the equal progress of each of thier relationship and secondly I didn't actually felt bore seeing the other 2 couples, ming &kit or forth & beam..Their part of the story was cute... I expected to see more of phana and Wayo story, but yea there were other couples too..So it's fair we got equal space and time for them.... And I certainly felt earth really if he can portray a intimidating shy guy, he definitely can be a good confident guy too ..His visual are really good ..He can be a good top as well as a shy bottom too... And as can one say, how the story ended in cliffhanger, season 3 is waiting ...I just hope now the production don't change the cast again...Becoz I'm really used to this cast and frankly I loved all the 6 actors... But then I know never can I believe the production company...they have the potential to change the cast and making us fans furious. I actually don't want earth and Ben being replaced especially, phana and Wayo character totally they nailed it...They are the main reason for 2 moons series, I really love these 2 actors...I don't want them to be changed ..Hope season 3 will not be disappointing , hoping they would not change the cast..

It has its cute moments

A very very late review
I watched it coz i loved how cute 2moons was.
But the story wasnt that well executed and the unnecessary repeat of the 1 part in first few episodes almost had me drop the show.
The 1st couple Pha & Yo may be i am biased but i couldnt buy it. They arent that bad both are handsome . I felt they made Yo act cute here but in case of Bas(season 1) the guy is so cute he doesnt need to act cute he just is. Thats the only thing and their storyline was rushed in the last episode with a conflict.
Ming & Kit won my heart season 1 i was looking frwd to their story line Joong & Nine are hot but Mings outgoing character wasnt that well potrayed here. He is supposed to be funny but he wasnt here. Their story line had its moments still a bit disappointed
Coming to the couple who stole the show ForthBeam . Season1 dint hav any ForthBeam moments. I felt their storyline is cute and interesting eventhough Forth love after a one night stand wasnt convincing enuf it was forgiven due to Pavel , god he is hot & handsome. He is a very good actor the best out of all 6 i must say . He kinda saved the show for me .

Ben did a really great job as Pha, but personally, I prefered God's take on Pha. It's just that coldness that God had in 2M before we find out he liked Yo for a long time, wasn't something Ben pulled off really well, which can be a good thing too (don't get me wrong). I think in a fandom where he was replacing someone else is a huge responsibility and its a huge risk, and Ben did an AMAZING job. So Kudos to him.

Earth as Yo, again I think I personally prefered Bass as Yo. However, Both Bass and Earth have this innocence about them that makes them very endearing. I think Earth's Yo had a much longer story Arc than Bass did, so we got to know Yo a lot better through him.

Joong as Ming. Ming was my favorite character from 2 Moons, and I LOVED Kim's portrayal of Ming, so for me to be so torn about which Ming I like better is really a compliment to Joong. He was so adorable as Ming - especially once the S1 recap was finished.

Nine as Kit. Kit was my second favorite character from 2 moons, and I dare say I think I might prefer Nine as Kit, even though Copter was beautiful as Kit with his dimples and they way his jealousy was so green in the face of Ming's Ex. Nine brought a vulnerability to Copter. I think Nine is amazing. He is such a talented actor. I hope to see him in a lot of dramas in the future, hopefully as the main lead soon.

Dome as Beam. Beam had a much longer and more "meatier" part this season, so it's really hard to say if Tee could have pulled it off. But Dome was outstanding. I loved him with his "I'm such a manly man"ness followed by his confusion about his feelings towards his friend, and finally when he and Forth get together I was so happy.

Pavel as Forth - I really liked Pavel's take on Forth. He wasn't quite the clean cut Forth that I saw in S1. He seemed more rugged and badboy. I think my favorite part was when he goes "I don't do One Night Stands" or whatever. I loved that. Mad respect, bro. I do think Tae could have pulled off badboy!Forth. But Pavel and his tattoo were very hot. <3 Pavel's Forth is my second favorite character in 2M2 (Ming is still my favorite, Beam and Kit are tied for third place).

I find the Ming/Kit and Forth/Beam storylines to be much more interesting than the Pha/Yo one. Maybe because you see these characters fall in love with each other (even with Ming, even though he's been in love with Kit since the 9th Grade, he has to work really hard to get Kit to accept him and his love). The Pha/Yo storyline is boring in comparison they both loved each other for years and were too scared to say anything (with Yo we understand because he had low self-esteem, but Pha was apparently a confident people puller). (TBH I was almost shipping Suthee/Yo this season :P Green/Earth interations were so cute.... also that ship name is so cute: GreenEarth :P)

Forth/Beam is an interesting dynamic - I quite like how they fell into bed before they fell into love - even though I'm more of a romantic. It's a very realistic take on modern relationships. And it wasn't the non-cony way of TWM. It was very much consensual (even though consent cannot be given when drunk) - and even though Beam didn't want to talk about it after the fact. But you can see that they care about each other, and you can see that Forth really doesn't want Beam to pull away from him and is willing to take responsibility. I am all about Forth/Beam. I love how committed Forth is to Beam. I love it sooooo much. I wish we could have seen Tae/Tee but I will gladly go for Pavel/Dome as Forth/Beam because they were both phenomenal! <3

Ming/Kit - I love their banter, I love their love/hate relationship. They are every OTP I have ever had. I love that Ming is shown to be this playboy type guy who has had 13 relationships, which makes Kit insecure. I love that Ming is so ONE-track mind about Kit that he doesn't even realize he's giving other people hope - because he's just so into Kit that he doesn't even care about anyone else -- and will willingly drop everyone else like a hot potato. I love that Kit falls for Ming fast and hard, even though he plays hard-to-get for a long, long time. I love everything about Ming/Kit. Whether it is KimCop or J9. I want all the Ming/Kit. <3

Diving into this series right after watching 2 Moons helped me understand whats going on in the first few episodes. The description of the series may come as a remake of the original 2 Moons, but this is a continuation of where 2 Moons left off. I think the production gave us a summary of season 1 as the viewers won't be able to connect to the new actors but old characters. If you have not seen 2 Moons, episodes 1-4 may feel rushed and severely cut short. However, after Episode 4, new materials will be used and the storytelling will have proper pacing to it.

The actors portrayed their characters well given that most of them are first-time actors. I have to admit that I can't help but compare season 1 and season 2 actors. They both have their own strengths, but season 1's production failed to maximize it. Season 2's pairing for me hits the spot, especially with their supporting characters. Nine and Chen are just perfect couple while Pavel and Dome give the right amount of naughtiness to it (talk about that bedroom scene!)

I am so glad I did not give up on watching after my frustration with episodes 1-4. And now, I can't wait for Season 3!

Ok, here's the tea

This show is cute. I like it more than the first season for a multitude of reasons but I still have somethings I don't like.

Story:
It's the same story as the first season but expanded upon a bit. By that I mean they spent more time on the other couples. We've seen it before, one guy secretly likes the other but the guy they like is mean to them at first so they pretend to dislike them. Then it turns out that the mean one also secretly liked the other. You know, that plot. What I like about it is that they are cute once they are finally together. I couldn't really care for the main couple otherwise. Where this show struck gold was with MingKit and ForthBeam. I especially liked Ming and Kit because I love that kind of hate to love on one side and pining on the other side. Very cute.

Acting:
They were all good but none of them really stood out. I think they will be good in any other projects they do.

Music:
I didn't really care for it but I can see if others like it.

Overall:
It's cute, I like it more than the first season and I recommend watching it but I would recommend watching for the side couples and not the main one.

Light hearted

Acting was ok. I didn't like Yo's acting much in this series. Ming - Kit is cute. Yo acts too much infront of others. Always act as if he's shy all the time. Forth likes yo at first but how come he fell for beam after one night stand. Beam loved kit but having no hope he choose forth. Basically yo-gay, pha-gay, Ming -bi, kit-gay, beam-gay, forth- gay. Conclusion: All gays. How come a gay/bi never felt any sexual attraction(not love) to a guy in their whole life?? One time series. But I did like it than s1. Bgm is good. When compared to other series it's a very light hearted 1 time series with some cringe acting scenes.

Adaptation Gone Right

STORY:
The story is a very good story. It's very enjoyable and adorable. The pacing was good and the actions of the characters all made sense. Tven the ending was well written and paced which is something that dramas often fail at doing. Especially BL's.

ACTING:
The cast members were all new to the industry. They did their best and you could tell that they had given their roles their all. They were by no means perfect actors, but they seemed to genuinely enjoy playing their roles which made me enjoy the drama!
Now, I'm just going to note here that I know that the cast is a very fanservice centered cast. This means that they've probably grown very comfortable with each other meaning that they had overflowing chemistry in the drama. I can't wait for season 2!

MUSIC:
The music was your average BL music. It went well with the drama.

REWATCH:
Everything about this drama screamed "rewatch me later!". I've rewatched this two times, and each time I get the same feels/chills that I got when I watched it the first time. It's the perfect drama for you to fangirl/boy over.

Quite sad, since I'm aware that there was a so called "remake" of this romcom, but I didn't watch it. I decided not to watch this remake after watching the Godt & Bas ship. I don't know what happen why I change my mind ?. I started it yesterday 30 minutes after 5 pm and got finished 2 AM. This series is very CLIFFHANGER and can't wait for season 3.
Before I decided to watch this remake I already have an Idea that Earth withdrawn from being Wayo in the upcoming 2Moons 3 ?. As of now, while lying, I can't find my strength even planning to watch the next season without Earth / Wayo. Earth have an unfinished business to all of us.

(I think the Writer or all the production team will give us different Wayo. Might Wayo will undergo plastic surgery ??)
