I thought it was OK, but not terrific. Lots of bad writing, editing, and directing.
Dislikes:
I didn't like how they rehashed things so much in the beginning. And it wasn't even just filling in the blanks of their story from the first series, it was like an entirely different timeline. So it was repetitive. a bit boring, and at the same time confusing. Like I sorta have seen this before, but not really.
I wonder why they couldn't they have broke this into two parts. For the first 2-3 episodes they could have kept the same basic storyline from the first series, filled in a lot of backstory and even some new content about that time. They could have even used some footage from the first series. Then for the remainder of the 10 or so episodes, bring Ae back into the story, tell about the breakup, and move forward from there. It would have made more sense than the way this actually happened.
And there was just too much crying from Ae, I get he was heartbroken, but 11 or more episodes of him sobbing was a bit much. Poor Perth must have been dehydrated from all the crying! Again, this is mostly due to the way they altered the timeline. If they would have stuck to him being dumped starting in episode 3-4, it would have made more sense.
The Tum and Tar story didn't make sense either, they butchered that timeline as well. Poor Earth deserved a much larger part, he is such a good actor. I don't know why he agreed to do this series, I am not sure I would have if I was him. And such a weird ending to that story. We are supposed to ignore their other series now? Or did something happen in between times? This would have been a great way to "burn up" some time by filling us in here.

The side couples were great! The Tul and Hin story was terrific! This couple and their story carried the show and I hope we get more from them in the future. Yacht and Sammy are always nice to see, they should have had a larger role. Same with the other side couples, liked seeing them, and they could have expanded their roles too.
I thought that Mean and Plan did a good job with their roles. Some have described them as stiff or maybe sort of awkward between each other. I thought that kind of fit the story though, Can was confused about things in the first series so I can see how he might be awkward (at least at first) with Tin hitting on him and being new to being loved by a boy and all that.
Conclusion:
If this would have been titled something else (not LBC2) it would have been a good story. But as a sequel, it did not quite fit with part one. And I think that is what makes this bad. The scriptwriter or the original author (not sure which) just did not do a good job tying these series together or creating a sequel. The director or editor could have done a much better job with the timeline and pacing of the story.
Overall it was just sort of sloppy and not well thought out. I did like watching it (I am a sucker for any Thai BL series), but it is one of those throwaway series that was good filler more than anything else. There was nothing remarkable either way about it, except the TulHin plot. If you can ignore the whole first series, I would have probably given this a 8.5. But as part 2, it is nowhere near that good.
