Story 9.0/10
This story is about Tine, a pretty boy, who asks Sarawat, a popular musician at the school, to pretend to be his boyfriend to fend off Green, Tine's stalker. The concept of this story is so cute and I found the way they executed it interesting. The story had just the right amount of comedy and romance in it, and the story also developed smoothly. In a lot of BL dramas, it feels as if the couple goes from 0-100 overnight, but this story develops at the right pace, and builds an emotional connection between the characters rather than just a physical connection.
Acting/Cast 9.5/10
Tine and Sarawat's actors did such a good job as the leads. They acted out this story flawlessly in a way that you were not even able to tell it was acting. Instead of the overacting I often see in BL's, Tine and Sarawat's actors used small actions and quirks to get their points across. With just a small shift in their expression, you can tell the emotion they were trying to get across. The way they acted felt realistic and allows the viewer to really get lost in the story. The supporting actors also did a really good job in 2gether. The supporting actors added a lot of interest and depth to the story even though they did not have their own side stories which showed how well they preformed without us having a lot of background on them.
Music 10/10
The music in 2gether was one of my favorite aspects in the show. I often skip through the music portions in dramas, but in 2gether the songs that were chosen fit the situation so well. Instead of the music being the main focus in the scenes, it felt like it added onto the scene instead making it more enjoyable overall. The audio of the music was also very good and very easy to understand and follow.
Re-watch Value 7/10 - last bit of the show was a little disappointing.
Overall 9/10
