A perfectly imperfect series
The story started off as our couple bickered around and the first 4 eps was fun. Like a breath of life in this quarantined life. There is this freshness that comes from this series that I hardly find from anywhere else.And mind you this is not our typical Thai BL, this didn't normalize same-sex relationships and actually portrayed what a person goes through when they discover that they are not straight in a pure manner. All the confusions and doubts one has about themselves in that phase are all there.
And it is heart breaking that the story didn't finish off as I thought, but well that is life.
10 for acting, everyone pulled it off very naturally.
10 for story. Though things didn't go that well, at least our pancake started chasing his dream without any fear.
And a freaking 100 for music. It's so beautiful.

You can digest it...if you try to!
I'll be honest, I'm a Wanjaai so I watched this series with high expectations. I am not totally disappointed, but I am absolutely not satisfied. I remember while it was airing, everyone was bashing the director for weird camera angles, lighting problems, and random cuts, but I'll be honest all these can be digested well if the script is superb.This series had top-notch cast, Mew and Gulf's acting apart, the other cast were very good too. It has the best main CP with chemistry that can light up the sun. The OST's and music are good too.
But what it lacked was a good script and good pace. P'Mame wrote a script that made me think that maybe the author herself doesn't love her character anymore. They changed a lot of things from the actual novel and well some things were problematic in the story so I'm glad they did. But it felt like the whole season just needed ep 9-12; anything before that was unnecessary and doesn't add up to the main plot anyway.
But if you enjoyed TTS1, bet you'll watch it again. I'm giving it a 9.5 just because of MewGulf. So if you have watched TTS1 and wanna see some steamy hot kisses, awesome chemistry, superb acting from MC's, lovely and fluffy romance, eye candy guys, a bit toxic turn of events, unnecessary drama, bad script being pulled off by superb couple yada yada then go for it.

Damn son!!!
Okay, so I put it on hold while watching this title because after ep 14, me thinking about waiting for 3 more weeks to get the finale made me anxious. I am a binge-watcher so I told my mom that we are halting at ep 14.After that, my work got a bit tough and I got a bit late, but I really wanted to give a review. So here it is.
ACTING: Do I really need to say anything about the acting? Like really? This is a star stud....1000000/100 for the acting.
SOUND: Mmmhhh chef's kiss.....no words.
PLOT: The plot is so interesting... this whole thing is so new. Honestly, in my life of watching so many kdramas, I have never watched an MC killing off people like it's no biggie. Like it's normal. It would've been so weird if Vin being a mafia didn't kill people.
Also the comedy....a drama without a bit of comedy is just lifeless to me unless we are doing serial-killer stuff.
Also my baby Kwak Dong Yeon, writer-nim waeee??? Also I hated the fact that none of then gave a damn about my baby after he died while saying "Hyung I did well right?". Nobody had a char. dev. like my babe did.
REWATCH VALUE: Well I don't re-watch mystery thrillers (unless it's Signal or Healer or some other) so the rewatch value is less for me. Because all the mystery is gone. I'll again rewatch it when I am in my 30's maybe(currently in my 20's)
Those who are thinking if they should watch this, I have 3 things to say:
1. Yes
2. Oh YES
3. HELL YESSS
