Drama Review

Same-sex drama can be said to be one of the most popular themes in film and television dramas in recent years. "Interpret My Love with Your Heart" (hereinafter referred to as "With Love") is one of the popular Thai same-sex dramas. It has a simple and touching plot, a theme song that matches the plot, beautiful colors, and unforgettable lines. I don’t know how many young people’s sensitive and sincere hearts have stood out from the crowd of Thai gay dramas and gained countless foreign audiences.

The first season of "With Love" tells the story of De and Ouer, who were originally good friends, but parted ways after a dispute. Many years later, they met again before the college entrance examination. In order to help Ouer with Chinese lessons, De and Ouer resolved their knots and became friends again, creating a different spark... The first season became popular overseas as soon as it was aired, with Douban ratings With a score of 9.3, it attracted a large number of viewers to fall in love with Phuket’s food culture.

No one is born brave

Thailand has countless same-sex dramas broadcast every year. However, the homogeneous plots, young and immature acting skills of newcomers, and poor filming standards are the corruption of Thailand. A common problem with the show. The reason why "With Love" is different from other Thai corruption dramas is because it has a profound and sincere portrayal of sexual minorities, not superficial "sugar".

The plot revolves around the core of adolescent identity - De, who was born in a traditional Fujian family, repeatedly retreated after confirming his love for Ou'er. He was burdened with the dual pressure of his mother's sustenance and exams, making him confused. Love and the future; Ou'er is brave for love, but when he sees De's retreat, he doubts himself for the first time. For sexual minorities, very few can immediately tell the difference between themselves and others, and stumbling as they grow up is the norm for most people. "With Love" eliminates the entanglement and struggle of the two boys, making many viewers feel the same, as if they were seeing themselves in the past.

Lost the flavor of the first season

"With Love 2" is about De and Ouer coming to Bangkok from Phuket to go to college. In the second season, they are in *** A story about disagreements over the same dreams and reconciliation in the end. In the first season, De was not as decisive as Ou'er, but he clearly knew that he liked Ou'er, so he gave up his first choice for Ou'er and blocked his own future.

However, in the second season, De ran to the drama club to pursue his dream. Ouer felt lonely after changing his major and relied on his new friends to get out of loneliness. After knowing that Ou'er painted her nails, got tattoos, and dyed her hair red in the company of her friends, De actually complained that Ou'er had "changed", completely forgetting that she had ignored Ou'er's emotions in her busy schedule. Instead of chatting with Ou'er to relieve his worries like in the first season, De talked to his seniors and still ignored the lonely Ou'er.

What’s even more outrageous is that De, who struggled with confusion about his sexual orientation in the first season, fell in love with his same-sex senior so easily in the second season, and Ouer even witnessed the two going crazy in the name of rehearsing a drama. Kiss; this kiss caused the reputation of "With Love 2" to plummet, and the character setting and plot are moving in a magical direction.

Ou'er's character is also suddenly bizarre; in the first season, Ou'er was confident, talkative and a minor internet celebrity, but in the second season, he is frowning all day long and has a humble personality. Before the second season aired, Ou'er's red hair was the focus of promotion on the poster. Fans speculated that Ou'er's hair dyeing was a turning point in the relationship between the two. After the broadcast, only a few words were briefly mentioned by De. The illogical plot makes Ouer's character setting thin and one-sided, losing the charm of the first season.

A new director, a bad start

"With Love 2" is directed by Meen Tossaphon Riantong. Unlike the director of the first season (Naruebet Kuno), he took over the second season without having watched the first season of "With Love", coupled with the fact that he had no directing experience, making "With Love 2" and the first season There is an obvious sense of separation in Ji, and the audience was particularly dissatisfied with the way De and Ouer were filmed.

De's cheating was the beginning of the plot collapse of "With Love 2". The breakup in the fourth episode and the sudden reconciliation in the fifth episode shocked the audience. There are also five episodes. The first season was endlessly memorable, but the second season was long and boring.

"With Love 2" focuses on the interaction between De and the seniors of the drama club. However, their stories do not advance the plot. There is not enough foreshadowing for the relationship between De and Ou, making the two people's relationship difficult. The reconciliation of conflicts is particularly abrupt.

In addition, "With Love 2" also has many failings - the supporting characters in the first season had blood and tears, and they grew up with the protagonist, while the supporting characters in the second season are just to set off the protagonist. Just debuted, dispensable. The too dirty tones of "With Love 2" made it difficult for the audience to see the protagonist's face clearly, and it failed to capture the characteristics of Bangkok. The audience had no desire to understand Bangkok.

In the first season, learning Chinese was the beginning of the two getting closer, but in the second season, no Chinese elements were retained. Hibiscus flowers were replaced with sunflowers for no reason, milk replaced coconut water, Hokkien noodles and aiyu jelly were replaced with Korean fried chicken. After De made a mistake, he did not think about taking responsibility and just cried... These shortcomings that cannot be ignored consume the audience's attention. De and Ouer like it. After the show ended, many viewers made sad jokes, saying that the extra Easter eggs and cooperative advertisements were more in line with the characters of De and Ouer than the five-episode plot.

De and O'er in "With Love 2" have lost their souls. The audience said that De and O'er in the first season are the Phuket teenagers in their hearts. The summer in Phuket ended with regret and ended in an anticlimactic ending.
