Make It Right 2: The Series (2017)

Watched the FrameBook Cut of Make It Right beforehand, so I watched the 'Book & Frame Full Story Part 2' on YouTube for the sequel season. And I musrt say that Ohm was FINE in this series! It's amazing to see how hot he became in only one year! And his hair! Beautiful!

FrameBook's story is relatively tame in this series. No conflict or tension. Everything is amiable until Book's sex tape was leaked. This plot point didn't feel natural. It felt shoe-horned in to create random drama. Like his ex just so happened to be drunk one night where someone took his phone and released the sex tape. How coincidental!

Anyways, Book and Frame's relationship gets quite dull as Frame continues to try to reach out and help Book, but Book pulls himself away. The story doesn't make much sense either. It was very manipualtive to try to create drama that feels unearned and fake. The sex tape gets released. Book becomes depressed and pushes Frama away. They reconcile. Book tries to kill himself. His parents apologizes. They hug it out. A random person flirts with Book. The end. Book was so annoying in this series. Book doesn't deserve Frame at all! Not wanting Frame to kiss him in public when he literally had a sex tape leaked. Anyways, Frame deserved better!

I freely admit that I watched this drama mainly for the TeeFuse pairing and skipped pretty much everything else. Yes, FrameBook was also interesting but I felt that their storyline dragged a bit? Not that TeeFuse’s didn’t have its dull bits, too, sure. I think that 14 episodes was way, way too many and it should’ve been slashed to 10, 12 tops.

What fascinated me the most was Tee. He always seemed so… melancholy. He never got mad at Fuse, not even when Fuse decided to stay with Jean, he even promised to remain friends with Fuse, given a little time. And he never talked to anyone about how he felt, about his mother’s much younger and cheating lover, about Seed and his advances, about the whole Fuse situation, he kept it all in. I don’t know what it was about the actor playing Tee, Boom Krittapak, but to me he felt almost… ethereal here. Guest starring as Tee in WRU this year, he felt much, much more solid, real.

But regarding FrameBook, I truly adored the last scene with them, when Frame made the video to remind himself of what was really important in life: protecting the one he loved. That was incredibly sweet. And also natural, considering all that happened to Book in MIR2!

Not a must watch

After finishing Make it right I jumped right into season two since season one kind of left a few open ends.. however this one was not nearly as smooth to watch as season 1...

Let’s start off with the acting: this was the only part that to me got a lot better... there were a lot less unnatural looking interactions.. kissing or “hot scenes” seemed a bit more natural and the acting wasn’t as much over the top.

Now the story: I don’t know but this one just kind of dragged for me... the storyline felt all over the place, there were a lot of scenes that just left me confused and could have been left out in my opinion... overall I got the feeling that the writers tried to make this season feel a little more mature as opposed to season one... however for me that just made it feel awkward... The drama created in this season mostly felt over the top and awkward and I think the only reason I pulled through till the end was because the characters had become dear to my heart in season one and I wanted all lose ends to be tied up.. (also most of the characters are quite nice to look at)

So if you’ve finished season one maybe consider watching this one to tie up most lose ends... but I wouldn’t get my expectations up too high.

Do you get déjà vu ?

Okay, most important question! If you saw this first, okay ? If not, did no one get déjà vu if you have watched it after Together with me the series?
Two friends, drunken sex, the 'bottom' gets angry at 'top', 'top' feels guilty and avoids 'bottom', 'bottom' has girlfriend, girlfriend is cheating, but the one with the girlfriend keeps giving hope to the other, there is an 'ex' bf or friend whatever... I mean.. Since I plan to review MIR and MIR 2 together, let me tell you, the similarities between these two series and TWM the series is remarkable. And how come none of the reviews I read mention that?
Because this is a school drama? And the other is sort of adulting, college students.
The lives of teenagers is Thailand is really cool. Falling in lust, having sex in school, dating at that age... It's cute but a little weird, because they are making promises of marriage and forever. I am not saying you don't have true love in the world. And maybe you can find them in school. It's just a little hard to believe though.
The main couple were endearing and cute. But I saw 0 progression in terms of story and relationship. I really liked Tee in the 1st season, he is a green flag all the way. But in the 2nd season, I felt that he was such a pushover. I know he liked Fuse, but there is a limit to allowing them to push you around and play with your feelings.
I loved Frame and Book. Now Frame is the actual green flag in S2. The way he stood for and beside Book was unbelievable. I know they did not have the most perfect start, but the progression was fabulous. But somehow, I was not so convinced by Book's character. I know he was recorded against his will, and that is nothing less than abuse. But unfortunately, this was not treated well in the story. Tern just seemed to get away with everything. And he returns to Book's life as if nothing has happened. Book's parents are seriously monsters. Your son is a victim, for God's sake. But you made him worse than a victim. You drove him to an attempted suicide. If Frame had not come, Book would have died. But I really respect Frame for just being the biggest pillar of support for Book. Ohm is seriously a great actor.
Yok and Mo are my absolute darlings. I just loved their growth and development. I loved how Mo never shied away from accepting Yok the way he was. For a moment, it looked like they would not have a happy ending, but I was thrilled that Mo loved Yok and came back... And happily screamed out that Yok was it for him. I sincerely and truly hated Yok's mom in S1. But I think her acceptance of Yok and Mo at the end did redeem her a bit. But her story with Wit was a little creepy. And did Wit seriously end up with Cristina?
And Rodtang and Nine, Tern and Seed and some other characters did not have any conclusion.. Made it feel little too rushed! In fact the last episode of S2 was too much on the 2nd couple.

Maybe a one time watch, I actually wanted to know what happens next! So yeah.. And plus, if you are an Ohm Pawat fan, as I am, then definitely a watch! Have fun!!😊

Uma linda viagem ao túnel do tempo

Assisti essa temporada quando foi lançada, em 2017, mas agora em 2022 decidi revê-la e o sentimento de nostalgia me motivou a fazer minhas considerações, aliás, essas linhas são escritas pelo meu lado "fã de BL", que acompanha esse universo desde 2007, quando foram lançados o primeiro filme da franquia "Takumi-Kun" e o estrondoso sucesso tailandês "Love of Siam".

Essa temporada, bem como a primeira, sofreu muitas críticas pela atuação dos jovens. Apesar de uma qualidade fotográfica melhor do que sua antecessora "Love sick", que também mostrava a vida de colegiais e seus dramas, obteve muito mais espaço, consequentemente mais público, mais fãs e mais haters.

Historicamente falando, a série foi uma das primeiras a introduzirem temas muito polêmicos, porém pertinentes para a juventude, como a depressão, tentativas de suicídio e suas motivações, uso de aplicativos de relacionamento, vida sexual desregrada. Outros temas recorrentes também foram tratados, alguns deles como muito humor, mas conseguindo mostrar sua mensagem, como a auto aceitação, a aceitação familiar, vídeos íntimos, várias temáticas conseguiram ser abordadas com sucesso.

Quando o mundo BL sonhava com seu primeiro casamento, essa temporada trouxe o que poderíamos chamar de "um primeiro ensaio" para isso, mostrando em seu último episódio Book sendo pedido em casamento por Frame, e de forma simbólica eles estavam trajados como noivos para um ensaio fotográfico. O fan meeting de Make it right após essa temporada, foi um grande sucesso de público, justamente no ano em que as séries BL'S na Tailândia passaram a ultrapassar as fronteiras do país com mais força e visibilidade (com 2moons the series).

Não podemos esperar uma história sem furos, existem vários, mas a série é muito fofa, os casais são adoráveis (apesar das traições cometidas por Frame), os personagens cativam muito. O teor cômico da série traz leveza após os assuntos mais dramáticos. A ost dessa série é simplesmente linda, a fotografia também.

Não posso deixar de citar a delícia que é voltar no tempo e ver tantos atores que amo, lá no início de suas carreiras, ver sua evolução (como não amar a carinha de safado que o Ohm Pawat tem desde novinho???). Recomendo muito essa série. Blzeiros que chegaram agora nunca vão entender o sentimento que sentimos fazendo essa viagem no tempo e recordando das primeiras séries.

Season 1 was so much better than season 2, but it does give us the closure we need, eventually.

Where do I even begin? So, first, they randomly decided to throw LookMo and Yuk together, and it's so weird it takes like half the season to warm up to the idea.

Another thing is that the characters themselves CHANGED. Wit and Es, who I think are different actors, have completely different personalities and habits. They changed the actor for Nine, and cast it horribly (he went from really tall to really short), but most of all they changed his personality completely. He was dumb and bullied Rodthang in season 1, but in season 2 he was this weird, quiet, subservient short dude who spends all his time quietly gazing at Rodthang. Like, what? Ruined all that for me. The sister no longer is with or even knows her best friend/lover, and also doesn't have the same career. Yuk went from a very flashy, strong, proud character to a much less flashy version of himself. LookMo changed entirely with his adoration of Yuk.

Tee is the same, and he still deserves way better than Fuse. Fuse, who keeps trying with Jean and just hurts everybody over and over because he is not a good dude. Ugh.

There is a super uncomfortable side plot with Wit and Yuks homophobic mom that is hella weird.

Oh, also, the setting has changed entirely. They all reside in completely different places and go to a different school and don't even go to the mall anymore which is where 90% of season 1 took place. Like, they rented one loft in an apartment building and made it so they all lived there and just redecorated for each persons 'room.'

And now, why we are all here. BOOK AND FRAME. The real fucking deal, the cutest and most genuine couple, with the most complex character development and cutest storyline overall. This season, their story is like actually canon with season 1, unlike all the others. Book is put into an awful situation and Frame steps up to the freaking plate and helps him through it. He makes a few mistakes, and so does Book, but overall they are the reason why I stay alive. Oh, and they cast some 25 year old dude to play Book's dad and that was weird.

Overall it gave me conclusions that I needed and some that I didn't (Wit and who?), so it was worth the watch, but could have been better. I wouldn't watch it again.

STORY
compared to the first season, this season of make it right shows a lot of improvement. if you are an avid supporter of bookxframe then you'll love this season because it has a lot more focus on how things are going with them than in the first season. each couple (teexfuse, bookxframe, rodtangxnine, lukmoxyok) had their own thing going on and each issue was resolved for better or for worse. this season also introduces us to a few new character that you will either love with all your heart or hate with a burning passion.

ACTING/CAST
this series was casted extremely well, i fell in love with ohm (frame), boom (tee), plan (wit), and toey (book) while watching the first season and i continued to fall for more actors such as film (seed) while watching the second season. the cast is dominantly the same as the first season although the actor for the character nine was changed for reasons i do not know. the acting improved from the first season but some of the actors are still lacking but that's expected, all actors have the ability to improve in one way or another.

MUSIC
there isn't much to say here since i found myself skipping through the theme song as each episode began.

REWATCH VALUE
i would without a doubt watch this series again, it had me on the edge of my seat constantly and i loved every bit of it. the relational developments that happened and all the good and bad times really made the show worth watching.

OVERALL
this drama definitely holds one of the spots in my top ten bl dramas list, i have such a strong attachment to the relationships and characters involved. i'm so sad that it's actually over but i look forward to seeing what the actors who participated in this have to show in other dramas they might star in. if you're on edge about watching this and aren't sure whether you actually want to or not, i highly recommend you at least give the first season a chance because even if you don't like it, you'll definitely love the second season.

I was sold on the first season instantly, that's why it is really hard to think that season 2 was a continuation of the first season. To begin with, the story line was scattered it lacked direction, you're getting all this material that really does not make sense or add to the story being told. talking about cast although some have improved on their acting and embraced their role in the series, others did not "you're trying to sell me love between two individuals while their body language is saying something else, it's not enough anymore to just show a scene with them awkwardly cuddling and expect that that is going to relate love in any way". If the characters are uncomfortable with the role, why cast them or why bring clashing personalities to play one of the main couples in the show. if they were well-seasoned actors the chemistry and dynamics of the characters may have been different. although I feel the second season was a letdown, a lot was improved on compared to the last season, like I already mentioned some of the acting, better lighting, the editing was spot on etc ......

I honestly like the two seasons and I think they deserve a third one or season finale. I like the development of the main character's love story as well as the others. Fuse and Tee has a good chemistry and acting was superb. Book and Frame are my fave actually and they have more intense storyline compare to the first. Other characters has cute storyline and if there's a third season, I wanna see Kristina have a pair of her own.

If I'm going going to write a draft of the 3rd or finale season, it will be a time leap from 2nd season. Let's say they all graduated college and starting to have work. Fuse and Tee are planning to get marry but their relationship is starting to shaky again because of someone from the past comes back. Frame and Book broke up somewhere in between from the end of season 2 to 3 but destiny reunite them back. Rodtang and Nine are now couple but needs to decide which to prioritize, their relationship or work? Lukmo and Yok has a long distance relationship after highschool and starting to fall out of love because of it. Wit and Ess are still bff but what if someone fall in love will they still remain friends? Kristina became a famous make up artist and still single and meet the man of his dreams, will he take it or not?

It's somehow lame theory/fan fic but I hope the directors and producers as well as writer and fan see this. Let's make season 3 happen.

I finished both season 1 and 2, this series showed how they all grow as individuals. The cast of this series basically portrayed so much about their acting skills and also they are all attractive! But I just want to write this review because of the most iconic “Lilly Happy” she was so funny and I really can’t breath when she had a scene. Overall to be honest all the couples are really handsome and they did a very good BL series, considering that it was made around 2016-2017 which all the BL series nowadays are all better and developed.

By the way I am watching this during quarantine 2020
