Honestly i wasn’t crazy about 2 moons The Series, but i was inexplicably upset to find out they recasted for 2 moons 2. I put off watching it for a few months, but honestly i can never get enough of BLs, so i decided to give it ago. It’s WAY better than the original by leaps and bounds, but there were still some areas that left something to be desired for me. I think it was great how they recapped the original in the first 3.5 episodes and honestly you didn’t miss anything if you haven’t seen 2 moons.

Ming is again one of my favorite characters. I loved Kim as Ming in the original and that’s really where all of the nostalgia i had for the original cast lies. I think Joong did an amazing job as Ming this time around and he’s a cutie. I was so happy to see Kit and Ming finally become a couple since their relationship was never realized in the original. Phana and Wayo continue to be my least favorite couple although i like Ben and Earth’s chemistry better than the previous actors. Unfortunately their romantic scenes do absolutely nothing for me much like the previous actors. You can tell this is Earth’s first role. He does this shifty eye thing that i think is horrible it makes his sad, angry, and scared expressions all look the same. Kit and Forth round out my top 3 favorite characters. Kit and Ming’s scene in Kit’s childhood bedroom made my heart melt. Kit is so cute and i love the gym scenes in eps 12. I love the juxtaposition of Forth’s bad boy exterior with his romantic and humorous personality (And his tattoo!!). For the most part i think this cast of newbies did a great job and i especially look forward to future projects from Joong, Pavel, and Nine.

I wasn’t crazy about the OST but it wasn’t horrible. I’m shocked that they ended on such a cliffhanger. Most of the lackhorns and BL dramas I’ve watched have had sort of neutral season finales. If it’s good of course you’ll want a season 2, but it’s not necessary for any conflict resolution. I’m SHOOK. Will actually be waiting semi-anxiously for 2 moons 3.
