2Wish (2019)

2Cute

I really enjoyed this mini-series and am surprised by the low reviews. I think it's important to remember that although the actors and pairing is the same, this isn't TinCan, and therefore the characters are written differently with different personalities. I think Mean and Plan did a wonderful job portraying Two and Wish, and the mini series left me warm and fuzzy once it ended.

For being only two 30-ish minute episodes, the writers went into this with a solid concept, and the execution resulted in a complete, fully realized story. I’m genuinely perplexed by people saying this had no plot, as more was accomplished in these two installments than what's been done in some BL series with 12 episodes or more. I do think this series could have benefited from perhaps one more episode, so that some parts could have been really fleshed out, but I commend the creators for giving so much when given so little. I was also really impressed with the cinematography; the lighting, the sets...absolutely gorgeous. My only complaint is that at times, the music was a bit loud, and the actor's were hard to hear. It wasn't a huge setback for me, as I was watching with subtitles, but it was a technical issue that I think could have been avoided (perhaps by using better/closer mics).

I noted this in my review of ReminderS, but I'll say again that it was really fun watching Mean and Plan play different characters than the ones they played in Love By Chance. They delivered a solid performance here, and the looks Mean would give Plan....ugh, my heart. Nothing much to say other than love!

Overall, I thought this mini series was cute but had some substance. There's a solid story line (given that it's only two episodes) and a ton of sweet moments. You may want to watch ReminderS first, since that's where Two and Wish are originally introduced, but to be honest, it's been so long since I watched that and I kind of forgot 2wish was in it, and I was able to watch this mini series without feeling confused or like I was missing something. So, viewer's choice! If you're only here for MeanPlan, then I think it's perfectly fine to watch this one without watching ReminderS first. All of that said, I'd of course recommend!

Story:
I had to remind myself that this is a mini-series and I can't expect too much depth in terms of plot or character development. Perhaps if they made this into a single 1.5-hour movie, there would be a lot more into it that was in the show.

Cast:
I'm a fan of TinCan (and MeanPlan for that matter) and sadly they have been typecasted to these roles. Having Mean try to be cute and Plan to be a little grumpy is would not just work like that especially for a 2 episode series.

Rewatch Value:
There are no moments that you would want to see again. So, I wouldn't be rewatching this anytime soon.

Overall:
This could have been a 1.5-hour movie with enough plot and subplots that could very much improve the path of the story.

Cute Little Side Story, Not Enough Development

Yes I watched "Reminders" first, now that we've got that out of the way. This little mini series was cute. I thought Mean's character 2 was way more likable in this series than in "Reminders". Sure the character is still a total goof, but he's lovable and squishy! They also fixed his hair, thank god! No more weird semi-mullet. Plan's character Wish continued to confuse me. I never ever found him attractive physically in LBC, but in "Reminders" and this he was? Maybe it's the dyed hair? Other than looks though his character was more understandable this time around. He wasn't overly cruel or kinda using 2 for his kindness. I understood his frustrations with feeling useless without a job and jealous when 2 lied to him. Though I think it was slightly overboard at the end, it resolved pretty quickly though that felt like because of the time constraint of the series itself. Either way, this was alright!

partiamo dal presupposto che è il continuo di reminders,

questa miniserie formata da due episodi mi è piaciuta, ovviamente non ci si deve aspettare molto perchè alla fine è stata breve .

diciamo breve ma intensa

ovviamente mean e plan mi piacciono come recitano insieme sono molto teneri e hanno ben interpretato questi due personnaggi di questa nuova miniserie.

oramai è un hastag famosissimo i 2wish ancor prima di creare questo special, ecco perche li hanno chiamati cosi .

la storia risulta piacevole carina , senza troppi drammi e si lascia tranquillamente vedere in un oretta e un po .

non è noiosa anzi è abbastanza divertente , e forse vedere mean in questa visione estremamente cute mi ha fatto un grande effetto quasi shoccante, ma se l'è cavata bene, non possiamo dire nulla

sicuramente la consiglio ma di certo va vista reminders altrimenti non avrebbe molto senso .

Not a big fan

This was everything I had hoped ReminderS would be for PhunNoh. But as it is, it's just a kind of day in the life for 2Wish with a minor misunderstanding that takes 5 minutes to fix. This is a couple I know very little about and have no investment in whatsoever. I feel like a 2 episode storyline like this would be much better suited to a couple that has already been fleshed out. Instead it's a boring take on a boring couple (even in ReminderS, they were the least interesting of the bunch). Literally if this exact same plot/script would have been applied to PhunNoh, this would have been an almost perfect watch

Cute

Personally I just love Mean and Plan so I support any project they happen to be in together I think they have great chemistry together. This was short and sweet. Please give us more Mean and Plan. I also like Art and the other bl actors. The music was soft and appropriate to the overall tone. It’s good to see Mean play someone who is kind and more loving. I was so glad to see a gay character own his identity and stand by his man. Plan also plays a more mature adult. There is more focus on these two growing together as a couple. I liked it. I wish there would have been at least four parts but this was a good showcase for the two. I got the main theme and I’m glad they didn’t waste a lot of time on that silly female even though there are a lot of females out there like her.

Semplice ma veramente carina

Questa piccola serie è molto carina, in poco tempo mi ha fatto sorridere e mi ha anche un po' commosso diciamo.
Se avete un po' di tempo direi che ne vale la pena di guardarla.
Per una persona come me che non cerca cose troppo pesanti è perfetta
Non ci sono grandi plot-twist o colpi di scena, è una storia molto ordinaria, ma per questo mi è piaciuta molto; ti fa sentire a casa e in pace con te stess*.
Poi rappresentare delle serie che cercano di rappresentare delle storie basate sulle abitudini sono difficili da realizzare.
Gli attori sono molto carini insieme, non li avevo mai visti prima, e sembrano anche abbastanza esperti e intimi (se cercate fanservice questa non è la serie per voi).
Non capisco come mai sia considerata di così basso livello, non è niente di eccezionale ma comunque si vede che il lavoro è fatto bene.
La riguarderei volentieri, essendo una visione molto leggera.

thisis practicly a use of bl fans,
in love by chance they were the second couple, they were my favorite couple and i wanted to see them in drama of their own, but here it's just a use of their fans to gain more money.
1. they both colored their hair so trangly and not convinsing, i mean...its very tought to diy your black hair all the time, they also look better without it, it look fake and just annoying
it's make them try harder to look more trandy...
2. in LBC Tin were tought and snob, but here is joyful and smile all the time, it's not the same character, it's just different story, but they use those actors.
3. the filming the colors, all the vibe is more as a comerssial, everything look fake, not just their hair.
4. at episode 1 we see Tin kiss Wish forthhead, i womder...do they realy live together as a couple?! another fake act ho god.
5. at the first scene Wish kick tin from their bed, is a realy couple do those things? Nope..
Fake is the title, they just use those couples to promote and gain money,
i understand it's more legitimic now, but it's just not worth watching

This show feels like a half baked idea for a fanfic made by people who wanted more of the Mean/Plan couple but couldn't wait for LBC 2. I know these actors are good and know what they are doing I've seen them do better in so many other show. However, there is only so much you can do with the subpar nothingness that is this material. This show is short but even for a show that is only about an hour long nothing happened and it felt like the waste of hour. If you want more of this couple just watch reminders or a LBC compilation on youtube it'll be a better use of your time.
