Sweet & Quick ... & Lacking ....
My review is a personal opinion on the drama.This drama started off really well, and strong, and on point, So What the HELL Happened?
The gave us characters that had more chemistry when they were "fake dating" than when they were truly dating. By giving us a couple that doesn't communicate and understands that there will be times when their relationship will be tested, but that they can overcome that. By dedicating more time on the development of the side stories (Mil's crush on Tine, the fights that had little to do with the couple, by giving us lack of real intimacy between a couple that is supposed to be "in love"... this for me was the sad part and worst part of the whole drama, the lack of intimacy between the ML's was just really sad, after the whole fake dating turned around, I was really hoping to see more of they "love" grow, but sadly that didn't happen at all, in fact they were more like friends who just hanged out, and possibly shared a bed together, Tine was so sure of his love for Wat, that every time Wat wanted to become intimate he ran off (face slap). I don't care for the kisses or the sex , but these two characters behave more like brothers than a couple. Depicting a couple in love doesn't mean having them do sexual things. It can be shown through different forms such as, both couples cooking together and talking about their day, doing something that creates a mood Comforting one another when one is feeling down, all we have is Sarawat just "patting" Tine on the head.
This drama felt liked it lacked so much potential. The only good thing about this I would say is that the music in the series was really nice, and Wat singing his song for Tine was the sweet part.
Overall: This drama started off at 10 but sadly lost its way!!!

Why not follow the novel?
This review is from a non english or thai speaking, bl lover, film students point of view. From what i can tell is the casting really good, the actors really put there hearts into it and i can see that. There are many award winning acting pionts from different actors. And i appriciate it, i get really out of the story if the actors are not believeble. I really liked the simplisity and soft/slow pasing of the story in the beginning, its not a serie with a lot of hardcore stuff and i liked the atmosphere.I recommanded this to a friend that i new to bl dramas. So dont espected to much hardcore love scenes. I watched the serie while it was airing and i enjoyed it mostly But for some reason after episode 8, idk what happend but the pasing was really off. Moments with a lot of story where to fast and "boring" un importand moments where really long. Iy was also edited weirdly...I wanted to drop this serie after ep 8 because of the wierd storyline changes and editing... Oke so I personally did not read the novel BUT i do see stuff about the original novel online. From what i can see there did this serie not follow the novel, what made me a bit less interested to watch the rest But I wanted to give the serie a second chanse because i wanted it to prove me that the writers and directors knew where the were heading with the story. Today i watched the last episode as it was released and sadly im a bit disapointed. All the drama that was formed in the story between, tine and sarawat, mil, phukong, man and type where all over the place. I know 1 season of just 13 episodes is not a lot of time to really tell all the details of a story but for me the struggels, the pain and fights where all solved to quickly. I will not give spoilers for the people who still wanna watch this serie. But there are a lot of plot wholes. if one is really hurt by an loved one, one dont simply sleep 1 night and forgives/forgets. There where moments when things stared and ended in 1 ep without any reasoning given... also i know its an soft story but 1 good kiss would be nice. the side couples did not really have a lot of screen time for there relationship to develop..mil and phukong for example had an really foreced and weird ending... mil was hardcore interested in tine then suddenly, his switch changed so quick at the end... personally man and type where my favorite couple in this serie. Man's pure love for type and his reasons really studd out to me more than wat and tines story... i hope they will get there own little serie :) I still recommand you watch the serie for a light and easy watch but if you are someone like me, who really focuses on the story than you might get an headache.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Stop hating a non problematic bl
Firstly i loved this show i thinks its such a simple storty told a in such a sweet and cute way. Peole who hate the show just because are lame. If im being honest the only thing i didnt like bout this show is how they villainised pam for drama which was poor writing. If yall didnt notice 2gether is the only show ive seen were a fem gay actually has a love interest and isnt just used for comedy affect. In terms of acting Bright was okay and Win was great, surprisingly it being he's first show he did well, so overall i think hating or saying this show is boring is just poor bl taste im sorry.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Petit drama sans réel prise de tête.
Lorsque j'ai commencé ce drama, j'étais enthousiaste à la suite de la lecture du synopsis. Je dois dire que le premier épisode ne m'a pas déçu et m'a donné envie de voir la suite =D.Si Tine m'a un peu tapé sur le système avec son égo surdimensionné (Il est pareil dans le roman donc on lui pardonne x'D), j'ai adoré la personnalité de Sarawat. Il semble si "vrai" dans ses réactions qu'on dirait qu'il n'y a aucun "filtre".
J'ai aimé suivre l'évolution de ce petit couple mais également de leurs amis. (Bon "Man" est un peu lourdingue... Pauvre Type :D). Je regrette cependant ce côté "censure" qui donne souvent la sensation que Tine & Wat ne sont en réalité que des amis.
Vous l'aurez compris, j'ai tout de même apprécié cette série qui se passe relativement en douceur et ne vais pas tarder à me lancer sur la saison suivante ! :D

Watching 2gether Felt Like Falling In Love For the First Time
Cheesy, awkward with ridiculous, over-the-top, manipulative plot points, but I absolutely love this series. Yes, the story is lacking, but the chemistry between Win and Bright is immense. Their chemistry is undeniable. The show concentrates on Sarawat and Thine's relationship first and the story second. It's like the writers just throw random situations at the couple to make audiences respond viscerally, getting angry whenever there is friction between Sarawat and Thine. An article puts it perfectly: "just a montage of elaborate scenarios designed to make your heart skip and legs quiver." I haven't watched a series or film that has made my heart hurt, race and flutter so many times. Yes, the show is manipulative, but it works. Absolutely charming, adorable and cute, watching the show is like experiencing all the highs and lows, the melodrama, the thrill of first love; the flirting, being chased, being loved, loving another person, getting jealous and being happy. On a site note, Win's performance is so good, especially considering that this is his first series!This article perfectly articulates the beauty of 2gether: https://www.rappler.com/entertainment/tv/258771-reasons-thai-series-2gether-works

My Personal Opinion About 2gether
I Love the storyline, it's playful and not that in depth about s.x , after watching the drama there is alot of mixed emotions. CAST: i like the cast they get along with each other, but maybe brightwin is not that good of a match, i see a spark but i still get the i'm straight from both of them still i commend both of them. ACTING: I love it, even thought there are scenes that make my eyebrow raise, i still like it and they are natural. MUSIC: no comment 10 out of 10. Overall i would rewatch ❤️Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
I /heart/ this series. Read why..
Note: If you're reading this, please read til the end, I'd appreciate it.Okay, so to start, this is my first time writing a review for a drama.. This series means a lot to me, that's why.. Despite what everyone says and although I understand where they're coming from, this is just me speaking from my point of view. Before you start being too critical, bear in mind that this series is meant to be a light love story between two boys. For me, the series serves its purpose in giving enjoyment to the audience from the first 10 episodes and trust me, all those 10 beat all the thai BLs I've ever watched and I watched a lot! Well I usually stop watching when it gets too awkward or cringy but for this series, never once did I ever feel that way.. They are adorable, soft, cute and sweet in their own way. You may say it's preference and I won't argue.. People might also say that the visual of the actors was what forcing some to stay but logically speaking, if the acting is super bad, would the series still be worth watching? Well I'd walk away for sure.. I won't say that everything is perfect in this series, I just choose to look at the flaws as the imperfections that made the series the way it is. Win Metawin and Bright give their characters justice and you'll like other characs as well as you go along..
The last 2/ 3 episodes might be disappointing to some (bad writing? weird character development? lack of intimacy between the main cp?) so you'll see a lot of those negative reviews and comments, but if you're really immersed in their love story from the start, see the characters' traits from every angle and not being too critical/ serious about everything, you won't be as heart broken ^^ Seriously, it is just a series, indulge the good memories and leave all the negativity behind. I got into this series by coincidence so I do not think it is biased of me when I put this series as my #1 among all bls I've watched. To me, personally, this series leaves such a great memory (Scrubb's music plays such a big part <3). I love my nuisance and his handsome prince with all my heart <3 People say this series is cliche, well it is, but if you really look right into it, it gets prettier especially if you have some intellectuals telling you the subtle and hidden meanings behind the lil elements of the story.
Coming from an international fan, this review might not be for everyone.. Want to experience the real thing? Watch it from Thai ppl's perspectives.. Go watch the reactions with eng sub.. I suggest go to Pakhe Channel for recaps and eye-opening insights when you decide to start watching (but beware not to spoil the eps beforehand, go to the recaps of the episodes after you've finished watching each one).

ONE OF MY FAVORITE!
This is definitely one of my favorite Thai BL series, and probably one of the best I have ever watched. It's well-written, well-done and just brilliant. I love all the characters, especially the male leads, who are all so good-looking and portrayed their roles very well. Everything is just there, the romantic excitement, the sadness, the anger, the drama... I love every scene. I love the every interaction of the male leads, their spark with each other, I love the side stories for the supporting characters, the conflict is well-done, I love the ending and the whole series. The two male leads are just fit for each other, for the role, and I love them so much! 2gether: The Series is very recommended to anyone who wants to watch Thai BL! I love it!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Something between good n' bad
So before i started watching this series i went through the reviews and some said that it is just overhyped and some said it's actually pretty good but anyway i decided to watch it. At first it was really amazing you could feel that the story is going to be great ,until 9th or 10th eps maybe when they moved in together but then... okay i understand it is not necessary for them to have a kissing scence but i felt that chemistry between them started kind of disappearing and then it ended and it was pretty boring for me to watch till the end. But then we have still2gether to fill the gaps n' moments they couldn't put in part 1 . So my personal opinion is if you want to watch something sweet and cute go for it , it is not very bad it's just something in between good n' bad.
