TharnType 2 (2020)

Et bien, c'était aussi décevant que la première saison...

J'avais débuté cette saison les yeux fermés. Pas de lectures d'avis ou de critiques complètes, pas même un résumé. Et il est clair que cette saison est à l'image de la précédente : décevante.

La relation entre Tharn et Type est la même. Sept ans plus tard, ils n'ont pas changé. Ils ne savent toujours pas communiqué, les intrigues sont du réchauffé de la première saison, certains personnages changent et... Pourquoi en fait ? On ne sait pas ! Certains personnages qui étaient sympathiques sont devenus pénibles et lourds, tandis que d'autres étaient profondément ennuyeux.
Encore une fois, c'est l'alchimie du duo principal qui empêche le bateau de couler - bien que les derniers épisodes soient une corvée à regarder. On peut également saluer les performances de First dans le rôle de Fiat et Ja dans la peau de Leo.

Bref. Oui pour la performance des acteurs, quant au reste...

The departure of the director and production from the first season and the arrival of a different team of creators (except Mame) was visible, and in my opinion, the second season did not reach as high a quality bar as the first season. The main couple had nowhere to go much further in their relationship, so Tharn often turned into a suspicious naive and Type into a dramatic hurt "hero", and the footage was more devoted to many new or old faces, and often their behavior in the plot seemed far-fetched to me (e.g. Fiat, Doctor). Nevertheless, the charm of the main couple almost remained intact and I admire these two young men aged 30 and 23, how they managed to do it all and that they had to go through hundreds of commercials, conferences, shots, where they had to keep patting each other, holding hands or giving each other kisses. ..
Mom should write "something" more from life, not these fairy tales, when always one of the main pair of faculty students is "fairly" rich (TharnType, Love By Chance), although I note that both projects were of a high level. I can admit that Tharn's scary brother Thorn (he's actually younger) struck me as gay the most, but he was playing straight (now in 2022 playing Tankhun in KinnPorsche) and Tharn and Thorn's parents were great, beautiful the mother, who would actually have had Thorne at about nine years old, and the father, a Thai-Austrian singer and actor, was nice.
A lot of people may curse these BL series, but without us realizing it, they serve one very important function. Which one? Guess...


Odchod režiséra a produkce z první řady a nástup jiného týmu tvůrců (kromě Mame) byl vidět a druhá řada dle mě nedosáhla tak vysoké laťky kvality jako řada první. Hlavní dvojice se už ve vztahu nikam moc dál neměla kam posunovat a tak se Tharn proměnil mnohdy v podezřívavou naivku a Type v dramatického ublíženého "hrdinu" a stopáž byla více věnována mnohým novým či staronovým tvářím a mnohdy jejich chování v ději mi připadalo přitažené za vlasy (např. Fiat, Doktor). Přesto kouzlo hlavní dvojice téměř zůstalo nedotčeno a obdivuji tyto dva mladé muže ve věku 30 a 23 let, jak to všechno dokázali a že museli absolvovat stovky reklam, konferencí, šotů, kde se museli stále otlapkávat, držet za ručičky nebo si i dávat pusinky ...
Mame by už měla napsat "něco" více ze života, ne tyto pohádky, kdy vždy jeden z hlavní dvojice studentů fakult je "pohádkově" bohatý (TharnType, Love By Chance), i když podotýkám, že oba projekty měly vysokou úroveň. Můžu se přiznat k tomu, že Tharnův straší bratr Thorn (ve skutečnosti je mladší), mi nejvíce připadal jako gay, ale ten zrovna hrál heteráka (nyní v r. 2022 zaperlil postavou Tankhuna v KinnPorsche) a Tharnovi a Thornovi rodiče byli bezva, krásná matka, která by ve skutečnosti musela mít Thorna asi v devíti letech a i otec, thajsko-rakouský zpěvák a herec, byl sympaťák.
Spousta lidí může na tyto BL seriály nadávat, ale ony, aniž bychom si to uvědomovali, plní jednu velice důležitou funkci. Jakou? Hádejte ...

TharnType 2: 7 Years of Love

So to prepare watching this drama, I rewatched the entire first season since it had already been year since I had watched TharnType and I couldn't remember it well.

This drama uses a trope that I don't like: the everyone is in a gay relationship trope. It's like why is this one friend group all gay? Yeah, it can be funny, but it becomes distracting to the story because you end up diluting the character's relationships. Side characters' stories don't get enough time to fully develop and it begins to feel like everything is just fanservice.

For a couple that's been together for 7 years, they're still dealing with a lot of issues that first and second year couple's deal with: they don't seem to have talked about any of their problems that they had during the first series. So I wonder, how have they lasted 7 years if they still have miscommunication problems, jealousy, and completely opposite values?

The drama did attempt to show how as two couples grow older, they have to endure their work problems and how work can affect a relationship negatively. But for me, that felt like a weak reason for them to always bicker and not communicate. I'm so stressed from work, so I'm gonna create faux drama so that we fight. Boring.

I don't think you'll lose anything from watching this drama, the first one wasn't that great to begin with. Maybe if they cut the first 5 episodes from season one, they could make it better.

A guide on how to go from bad to worse

Why do I do this to myself? Like I disliked the first season. And yet, here I am, suffering through another season of TharnType and their dysfunctional, toxic relationship. Also, when I talk about characters, I am talking about the characters and not the actors who play them.

I feel like most of the series was a repeat plot of the first season – jealousy, a lot of it, and the two of them being bad at talking with each other. There was no real character development in the first season, so going into the second season that is happening 7 years later, I had high expectations. My mistake, I guess. I really expected a more mature couple that knows each other and can trust each other. Yeah, that’s not TharnType. Honestly, how did they even make it this far in the first place? And the fact that the two are not even public with their relationship?

Let’s talk about the whole Tharn & Type and Leo & Fiat mess. Honestly, I cannot hate Fiat. He was supposed to be the villain of this story. And while there are many things that I don’t think were okay, he is too cute for me to hate him. He can be quite unlikable at times, though. I really love his “friendship” with Leo. Leo is an amazing character and I really loved how he was keeping Fiat in line, preventing him from truly becoming a bad person. Even if his reasons might have been a bit selfish. One question though – who in their right mind would agree to Type’s stupid plan of getting Fiat to confess his feelings? I could never forgive someone for putting me through that, especially if they claim they love me. The way our “mature” couple handled the whole situation, on the other hand, was a mess. No communication, of course. Some violence. And a lot of tears. It’s like a repeat of season one, I swear.

We got two more side couples. They weren’t show that much, but I think they were adorable. But maybe not that memorable. I do not like how Khui and Seo suddenly became Tharn’s and Type’s neighbors again. It makes no sense.

And while on the topics that make no sense (or even less than usual), what’s up with the whole monk thing? It’s like they ran out of plot and had to throw something completely random in, so they had enough material for 12 episodes. It just doesn’t really go well with the whole flow of the story.

The OST was nice though. I also liked the way they included the problem of homophobic work environments and how hostile they can turn. Let’s not get into how Type could have done things better. I don’t have enough energy for it.

Here we are again...

Seing many review write about negative thing make me want to write something.... Hahaha....

After read a bunch of the review here must be agreed with some point they all wrote, 7 years in the relationship don't make them be mature. 7 years in relationships don't make them learn how to communicate or talk about thing that important in their life. Just the steamy scene become much better... Haha....

Especially agreed with what yoonthethicc wrote in their review. The biggest problem that this couple have is the lack of trust they have with each other. But sometimes that what the writer did in all the drama, they make jealousy looked like what every couple must have, jealousy mean love sort of thing, without jealousy mean you don't love....

Yeah after read a bunch of review here I also realise this season gonna be better if they just focus on make their relationship better, instead give new characters that didn't help with character development, like Fiat & Leo. Ugh another toxic to the max couple we don't need in the drama.

Like many other i also like doc & champ. Although somethimes i shake my head how stupid champ can actually be...

What i like is the end when FINALLY Type talk about the problem in their relationship. But we can't really make sure will they be mature or not cause this is the end of our journey with Tharn & Type. And in the end i really think they cute couple & just can't bring myself to lower the score even with all the toxic thing that happen in this series.

I'm 3 episodes away from finishing this drama. I don't know if I want to continue it at all.

First of all, let me say that I enjoyed watching the 1st season of the series. I mean, I fell in love with Tharn and Type at the time they got together. I think its the 4th or 5th episode of Season 1. I loved that since the couple got together as early as Episode 4. Even if there are still obstacles and problems they are facing at that time.

Speaking of their obstacles and problems. I can't fathom the fact that even after 7 years of their relationship, they still have the same attitude towards together and towards solving their problem.

I actually love Tharn, even If he's always pouting his grown ass. I mean this is a grown ass man, but all he does is pout and constantly doing his sad face. I find it cute, but sometimes unbearable. Even until the second franchise of the series.

I love Type too, but I can't change the fact that I want to complain about his anger issues maybe (even if he's trying too hard to rise above it in this season). I hate the way that in every episode he's always mad doing his signature angry look face. I mean its still season 1 all over again!

What I hated the most while watching this season is that, I think that the characters in the series has a little to none character development. I loved that Type is trying to control his anger issues (i think he has one) but I don't think its enough for a character development. I kinda appreciated the way he solved that problem about the secretary who is hitting on Tharn, but I still somehow don't like how she confronted her with that dialogue which i think still harsh even though they think they adjusted the words so that it wont be really that descriminatory but still the same meaning lol.

Type's Boss! I didn't really understood well that arc at all. I mean, this man's boss randomly choose to make Type's workplace in hell without any real and apparent reason! I don't know if I just missed the real reason, all I know, is that he thinks Type is hitting on a nurse, (who is his lover?), so he is getting revenge on Type by abusing his power. Is that really the reason? I don't think the show has explored that arc very well.

I don't want this review to be longer. but I just want to say that I HATED FIAT's GUTS. Did the show really purposely made him that unbearable? Because I really hated him in that extreme.

I don't even think I wanted to finish this series after all. I'm on episode 9, and I want to jump to another series to watch.

Type Grows Into a Man Everyone Can Love, Not Just Tharn!

I don't know if there can ever be a series that is perfection, and I am not going to suggest that this show is perfect, but what we get is Golden anyway. This show was always about how Type develops into a person that we can accept as Tharn's love. Back in Series 1, Type was rough and rude and the only person worse was Lhong. But, seven years later, Type is a changed man because of his love for Tharn. Are they perfect? No. Are they realistic in their challenges and decisions (even if bad ones)? Yes. We should never forget that the whole point of BL is to provide a wonderful love story, and in that, TharnType 2 provides plenty.

Let's start from the obvious point - we rarely get to see a story about a couple AFTER they have gotten together. In that respect, there isn't a lot to compare it to (I can only think of SOTUS 2 and Together With Me 2). But from what we can see, there are going to be issues with work, family, communication and trust. That is completely accurate, so to those who would want Tharn and Type to magically mature beyond what you see is next to impossible. Tharn does have issues with jealousy and Type does have problems communicating openly with Tharn, especially about work. But, let's remember that they are around 26 years old, so they learn and try to do better. They are especially lucky because they have a great support system too.

Techno was especially hilarious this season, and Champ and Thanya were great additions to their team who stepped up. Dr. Khunpol was a cutie who showed us that romance can move at the pace of an iceberg but can still work out. And lastly, Phu and Cir were a fun couple with a completely different relationship to Tharn and Type, so they add more than just being the neighbors. I hope that any young relationship could have as many supporters as Tharn and Type had - success is all but guaranteed. Even Fiat ended up being a villain with wounds that we could understand and pity (unlike Lhong), and I was happy for him in the end.

The acting, especially by Gulf, is so much better, and all the proof you need is Type's scene on the beach. All I can say is WOW. There is also no denying the chemistry between Mew and Gulf, and when you see them together on screen, you can feel their love for each other. The looks, the way their bodies respond - it's almost like they are completely relaxed, like a couple that has been together for seven years would.

Could things be better in the story? Sure. Am I happy with what I got? Absolutely. If you are rooting for Tharn and Type, and are willing to go through their ups and downs with them, then this show will pay off for you. I liked it a lot, and I will miss Tharn and Type, but especially Mew and Gulf together immensely.

I Liked it but

over it was cute mewgulf never let you down when together, but the over all side couples where way to much, it was cute for the 1st two eps but than i got sick of seeing so much of the side couples I wanted to stop watching all together but i kept watching and i love types growth all around. The kid that leo was in love with was cute with leo but him not getting a hint when it came to type made me so mad like i couldn't stand him and it made me want to just gave up on the show. but i pushed thou and watching how type handle it made me so proud of him and happy that it showed how long him came from season 1 tell now.

I hope everyone that watched stick thought tell the end cause over all it a great series with a few draw backs,

It hurts to close TT chapter for good... but they deserve a HEA

Tharntype SS1 will forever be an absolute favorite. It will go down in my list as the best in the Thai Bl as of this moment, despite some others has better storyline and cinematography. There is just about TT that really catches you and will never let go. There is this feeling of wanting to rewatch until you got your fill. And I indeed watched it for the nth time. It made me hang up and stop me from watching another BL until I'm already past my fill of it. Not to mention the overall cast of SS1 was perfection. I would never imagine any other actors playing the roles other than what was given to us.

Setting aside the gushing for the previous season, I'll lay out what I feel for this current season. SS1 is the storyline that makes me fall in love with TT, but season 2 is the one that made me feel it all. I've only cried once while watching SS1 for the first time and it was on Episode 11. TT SS1 gets better every time you rewatched it. But when it comes to SS2, I cried with Type on his first break down on Episode 7, my heart clenched when they fight on Episode 10, I bawl my eyes when Type thought Tharn finally give up on him on Episode 11, and finally... I cried the whole time especially on their vows in the bedroom in the finale.

TT SS2 gives me the vibes of adult life. It gives the audience a sense of maturity that the characters obtain for seven years while retaining a large of certain aspects they possessed in the prior season. There are a lot of past insecurities, fears, and issues that were brought back to be tackled in this season. And I loved it. It hit close to home. For there are a lot of issues we have that we indeed buried for the sake of moving forward. But those issues remain in the deepest recess of our mind. It's there... lurking... waiting for the trigger to come and it will explode.

That's what happened with TT. Tharn's issue, fears, and insecurities were never completely closed and it haunts him the entire season 2. While Type's one might have its ending in the prior season, but he never had the same feeling of abandonment Tharn had felt when they break up on Ep 11 SS1. He knows that it was just a fake break up. He knows that he is doing it for Tharn's sake. There is a sense of awareness there so he didn't felt what Tharn had felt.

However, on SS2 Ep 11, it was his turn. And it was not just for the sake of him going through the same thing. It is essential... for we know that even if Type loves Tharn more than he will ever admit... there are still times that he sometimes took for granted Tharn's emotions just because he knows Tharn loves him so much. But in that scene, we can see Type's deepest and darkest moments. What he fears the most is when Tharn finally gives up. That there is a nagging feeling inside him that there might be a time that Tharn would finally get enough. And Type couldn't live with it.

Because before this, Type was at the edge of accepting marriage with Tharn in the first place. He was so ready to give in... but he will do that for the sake of making Tharn happy. For giving Tharn what he wants. Before that scene, he entertains the notion of marriage but he still has doubts. However, in that breakdown moment and after that, Type realizes he badly wanted it too. He wanted to tie Tharn with him as much as Tharn wanted it in the first place.

SS2 has a lot of shortcomings. Ep8 and 9 were my least favorite of all... but I will give this to Tharntype for always pulling me back on track. Mew and Gulf did a superb job with SS2. Type was the star obviously as it centered on him... however Tharn has given the feeling of insecurity that is really relatable. And of course who doesn't want someone who is willing to wait for you whatever it costs? Tharn might be a very flawed character and somewhat manipulative... but those characteristic makes him tangible and human. That despite his flaws, he could overcome all of them because one thing is more powerful than any of them: It is his love for Type. He was a selfish person and slightly spoiled, but he can also be understanding and loving all at the same time. A partner that someone like Type deserves.

Oh for Type... I don't know how to start. I don't think I have seen other Thai BL leads (let's put Chinese BL leads on the side for now... they have a different tier of their own) who are as multifaceted as Type is. The character development is absolutely phenomenal. He made me cry, he made me smile, he made me understand, he made me relate and of course, he made me proud. As someone who follows 2 seasons closely, I commend Gulf for giving us the perfect Type. The previously extremely flawed, harsh, and unreasonable anti-hero to an adult who values communication and loved his gay boyfriend to a great length, ready to marry him with a promise of forever.

Never once I compared the plotline of SS1 and SS2, and that's maybe the reason why I both adore the two seasons. I find the SS2 as a different entity and distinct from its predecessor. It gives me a majority of what I need to close TT's chapter so I'm could conclude I am satisfied. However, I believe we should have got TT's marriage. The special episode, should just be their after wedding/honeymoon scenes and maybe there old age relationship situation. But I'm also not sure if it is fine to show in Thai national tv a LGBT marriage though, I wonder.

Oh the box set... it's a different story (eye roll). There are a lot of scenes not just the NC ones that feels cut abruptly and I'm pretty sure will be in that boxset compilation. I bought the SS1 despite getting all the lovely scenes in the series itself. I do that because I wanted a memory of TT for my own. I would still be buying the SS2 boxset if only they do the same thing... but despite my love for TT... I will not. I just can't condone this kind of marketing. Yet I will be buying the special episode... damn marketing and all. I just have to see their wedding. TT has been through a lot and I don't know if I can move forward if I couldn't see that wedding they deserve.

Overall... it is hard to close a chapter of a favorite show but it is a must. Nothing is infinite in this world. But TT will forever be a good memory to look back to.

For those who didn't enjoy SS1 in the first place, I think you will also not find this one suitable with your taste.
Do yourself a favor and just watch what you love. Life is too short to spend it jumping on hate truck. If you don't like it, drop it. It is for your own good too. Hate watching it bad for your health.
