Great and sweet bl , HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

A chance to love was a great show for me. If you see as an individual show rather than a sequel then it comes out to be in the list of top 10 bl shows. As it was pg15, the story was not intense but rather family dramatic. But there are many sweet moments that make your heart flutters and the chemistry is just awesome.
I feel that it was a good decision by the writers to show another version of tin can story rather than continuing with the prequal because let's be honest their ending in that show was too painful to start a new show with. As the denial of confession was shown again after building their relationship from start, you feel less hurt and stay with the story. You get connected with the story more. I liked techno and kengkla story as well. The issue which a lot of people had about their story in the prequel was well addressed and their story was also cute.
The plot was dramatic but i think because of this we saw really raw sides of tin and can. I swear I cried with tin when he cried in the shower (PS SPOILER ALERT he didn't cry because of can). So at the end, the story did justice for me.
Overall this show was very soothing and loving for me. It gave me a source of comfort and made my heart warm
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! ATLEAST TRY AND I AM SURE YOU WON"T REGRET

What a mess.

Ok, so I'm not gonna lie. I wasn't a fan of this one.

Update: apparently these fuckers bullied Cooheart because he is part of the LGBTQIA+ community. This took 30% off the rating, because we don't stan bullies in this household.

---

### Characters

There was, first of all, just something off with the chemistry of the main couple. We know the have chemistry in real life, so maybe it was just the acting that wasn't there, but it didn't feel right.

The secondary couple had waaaay better chemistry, which is why I would've wished for more screen time with them. TulHin is a couple I'd definitely watch a series about, especially with those actors.

KlaNo was barf tbh. The guy who plays No has, in my humble opinion, no real acting talent, completely wasting the talent Kla's actor has. The chemistry was also barely noticeable.

And then we have our poor poor Ae... His story was, in the very beginning, pretty touching and sometimes funny. However, it never evolved and got extremely boring.

Ae's friends were the ones that made things interesting, yet they barely had any screen time.

### Scenes

Let's start with the spicy shit. The kissing scenes were awkward, and the acting was mediocre at best. I don't know what it is with Plan and kissing, but it just doesn't work.

We never had a full on spicy scene, and I'm disappointed, but not mad. I'm gonna be honest here: Plan couldn't have pulled it off. Mean maybe, but not Plan. Now, if we would've had a spice TulHin scene, I'd be all for it, but that didn't happen either.

Bad choices were made in the scene-planning and screen time dividing.

### Story

Let's start with the beginning: there are so many side characters with under-developed story lines, it hurts.

The main couple's story was okay, but not anything to write home about. The first half of the series was a repeat of season one, only with bad acting. The second half was just meh.

The second couple's story was good, but had too little scenes. (as you can tell I'm a TulHin fan)

KlaNo's story was a little interesting, with No being not too sure about his feelings, but it was dragged out for too long and No's acting is still a no for me. Also, Kla being a little puppy, running around after his Big Time Crush is kinda weird and off-putting.

I don't even want to begin about the random shit with TumTar... I am confusion. In the first season they were so in love, with Tar having trauma and Tum not knowing what to do. Yet, in ss2, it's as if they've always been just brothers. Tum is even encouraged to persue another dude, and he does it?! This would've been such a good story line, yet they just completely threw it out of the window.

The random new characters didn't get a story at all. They were just placed there as decoration I guess.

All in all, this ain't it chief

Left a lot to be desired

Ok there’s a lot to unpack so let’s not waste anytime,
-wtf, the timeline so was messed up. I have no idea why they decided to reset TinCans timeline. I didn’t need a 6 episode recap on things I already knew. It was boring and felt like a cop out because they didn’t know how to continue.
-NoKla, Marks acting was really good, but this couple is kinda awkward and their character development was super poor. But I don’t blame the actors, NoKla got a crisp 14 minutes of screen time. This pairing felt unnecessary and I usually skip their scenes cause they are kinda awkward to watch.
-I honestly have no clue why Perth or correction Ae had such a large role in this series if all he was going to do was cry for 5 episodes. On the other hand PERTHS ACTING WAS INCREDIBLE(I cried a lot). But he was a very mid character no strong feelings towards Perth or the character; but his moping got old after awhile.
-TulHin, ok unpopular opinion-they were so cute and I loved them….but they were SUPER unnecessary and the acting was okay at best(they are both new to acting so I’ll give them that). This couple kinda felt like an excuse to why Tul was so mean but it was unneeded. They just kinda felt like a needle in the hack sack after the fifth couple was introduced.
-ok TumTar, glad they could tie up some loose ends from TharnType and the first season, the whole stepbrothers thing made be super uncomfortable so I usually skip their scenes but I’m glad they didn’t make that final. They just acknowledged it for 11 episodes then chose to ignore it.
-why the heck did they introduce so many new characters, like I kid you not by the end I think we ended with 5 solely BL couples. And I love BL as much as the next but some variety is needed after side couple 2.
-Characters got lost and I’m so sad, Tin was such a powerful character but the second season due to laziness by production and writers his character felt lost and like a completely different person. Same thing I felt with Lemon she was originally like a bubbly and mildly obsessed BL fan(I think we can all relate) who was trying to play Cupid in the first season.(speaking of which I have no clue was Ae never corrected her in either seasons, they felt out of character too) but in the second season she was obsessed with this idea of a perfect match for Tin which was the “opposite” of Can, and it got annoying very quickly like her character would not shut up about it, her character was disappointingly changed from bubbly to obnoxious very quickly. Moving on to new characters, Tins Dads character was VERY bland and he felt like a push over, Sammy and Yahts characters were only there for product placement scenes and that annoyed the heck out of me.
-TO MUCH PRODUCT PLACEMENT, I GET IT NOW PLEASE MOVE ON IT WAS SO SO SO ANNOYING.
In conclusion this season left a whole lot to be desired and left most fans feeling dissatisfied. This show felt lazy and not thought out well and I wish MAME will do better to continue shows better in the future.(ps. If Between us is bad I might cry)

Un peu décevant, mais si intense !

La communauté des bl FANS a été assez déçue par cette deuxième saison, car les attentes étaient grandes après cette très belle histoire entre Pete et Ae. Certes, le défi de faire une deuxième saison sans ce couple star n'allait pas être facile. Il est vrai que les épisodes de récapitulation de l'histoire entre Tin et Cantaloup ont été ennuyeux pour des FANS qui connaissent déjà très bien la première saison, et qui par ailleurs n'ajoutent pas grand-chose parce qu'on savait déjà de l'attirance de Tin pour ce fou de Can. Le deuxième problème du scénario, c'est aussi cette histoire avec son frère. Les éléments sont bons, mais fallait-il vraiment la raconter comme ça ? On a parfois l'impression que le scénario a juste copié collé des passages du roman, quand le père se confie sur ses difficultés à aider ses enfants à être heureux par exemple, mais que le spectateur a du mal à suivre puisqu'on ne lui donne pas tous les éléments... ainsi, d'un côté une perte de temps et de l'autre côté pas assez de scènes pour comprendre les personnages et leur histoire. Donc s'il y a un échec dans cette série, elle ne vient ni des acteurs ni des dialogues ni de la photographie (direction la caméra, décors choisis, etc.) mais bien du montage et du découpage en séquences.
Peut-être que Mame avait du mal à jongler entre l'adaptation de LBC2 et celle de Tharntype2 ? Ce qui reste néanmoins, l'alchimie progressive entre un introverti protecteur tel que Tin, et un gamin extraverti à la folie, plein de courage et de valeur : Cantaloup, pardon Can. L'alchimie dans le couple star est essentiel dans un BL, c'est donc déjà un bon point. Au début de la série on ne comprend vraiment pas comment il peut s'intéresser à/ supporter Cantaloup, mais à la fin c'est une évidence ! La souffrance de Ae prend peut-être beaucoup trop de place s'il est vrai, mais en même temps c'est aussi une des raisons qui arrêtent Can dans son élan vers Tin, au début, donc il fallait quand même l'évoquer mais peut-être pas aussi longtemps.
Il reste néanmoins un jeu d'acteurs et des scènes profondément intenses et romantiques, avec une qualité de présence que je n'ai pas trouvée en ce moment dans la dizaine de séries BL en cours, ( c'est bien dommage !) Les fans qui auront fait un procès à A chance to love, parce que les scènes NC n'étaient pas présentes, ils se sont, pour moi, complètement trompé de série ! LBC n'est pas Tharntype ou MAxTul productions, ce n'est ni une critique ou une comparaison abusive, c'est juste de 2 genres de série très intéressants mais différents !
Je reverrai assurément cette saison avec plaisir et et attend la saison trois avec impatience !
Merci de votre lecture :)

HOW DID THE PROGRAM/CHANNEL EXECUTIVES PASS THIS?!

I honestly have no clue how this got a nod to go on floor and be released. This makes absolutely no sense. There are soooooo many problems in this show. Unlike many viewers....the retelling of the story from season 1 was the least of my concern.......however this season had other alarmingly glaring issues. Spoilers ahead !!

1) Absolutely Unacceptable trope: This show was released in 2020. And yet so many tropes used in this series are not only outdated but so problematic. Gone are the days when BL shows could present story lines with icky unacceptable developments and sell it as if it’s nothing. I truly expect better not only from the makers but this industry in general. Techno and Kengkla story made me so uncomfortable in the first season. But what frustrated me even more was the way this season tried to shoehorn them in the box of a cute couple who are trying to bypass a minuscule issue. Oh and that issue is RAPE. What the hell! They not only toned down the seriousness of this issue but also failed to depict how uncomfortable or hurt Techno was (because he clearly was). But not to worry......relentlessly being pursued by Kengkla made him forget everything (face palm).

2) No Room for Consent: Why did consent mean squat in this show? Why!? I fail to understand this!! Tin-Can were a very awkward couple...and this is the nicest thing I can say about them. Random kisses by Tin to Can even when they were not a couple or had any romantic development WHATSOEVER was so frustrating to watch. And no this isn't cute by any means. These characters had no understanding of boundaries or personal space.

3) Gaslighting Galore: The way the makers handled Tin's family story reminded me of all the red flags psychologists warn about. There is no simple way to put it....the brother was a douche-bag of the first order. Yes he also suffered as a child but what he did to Tin by no means is or should be acceptable. When the father was confronted about all the wrongdoings done to Tin, he started giving explanation about how hard it was for Tul, I know I’m a failed father, but you had better than all of us…. so try and understand our perspective because you're a nice boy at the end of the day. Brilliant class on gaslighting. And it worked.....Tin forgave his horrible brother and moved on as if nothing ever happened. Somehow for a change I was on Can's side (usually his over enthusiasm got on my nerves) ....his hesitance to forgive Tul was justified. And what was the whole thing about Tul and the father being mean to Tin because they wanted him to have freedom and no responsibility unlike them. That was some BULL S*&$. The boy only wanted some love, respect and understanding. These guys were mentally 2 years old. Even kids handle relationships better than them. Jeez.

4) Yawn Couple: Pete and Ae were good in season 1. They were the star couple. But what was the need to bring them back in this season. Ae’s sole job in this season was to mope around and be sad. What a waste. The makers did not do any justice in telling their story. Their story was used as filler in every episode. The makers presented half baked reasons for their break up which I was honestly not convinced about and presented unnecessary flashbacks. Focus on Ae diverted the attention from Tin and Can which they definitely needed. Showing the progress in their relationship was important which was eventually done very shabbily.

5) Couples, Couples & More Couples: This is one of my major issues with many mainstream Thai BL shows. What is the need to have 4 couples in a series with hardly 12 episodes with a running time of 35-40 minutes? It makes no sense. Rather than focusing on 1 or max 2 couples and polishing their story line, they divided their attention on 4 couples with neither of them leaving any impression on the audience. This is a very unique technique in expanding the BL universe as the couple that clicks with the audience ends up becoming the main couple in the next season or they branch off as a separate show. The creative dedication in writing meaningful genuine scripts with thoughtful dialogues and inspiring romances is absolutely absent. The audiences do not need multiple couples at a time, all they want is one good couple with a memorable story.

This show is a disaster from top to bottom. The only good thing about it is the production value because anyway Thai shows end up getting hefty sponsors. The direction was amateur, the script/storyline was a mixture of outdated and uninspiring tropes/clichés, and the acting was simply bad. The saving grace was Lemon Can’s sister (she was very adorable) and Tin’s dad who was refreshingly progressive for accepting both his sons being in gay relationships.

Not what I expected but still enjoyable

First off I know why people dislike this. I get it. It changed a lot from the books and what we were expecting to get after season 1, and we all know that no show needs a season 2 lol. In saying that, I do want to say what I liked about this season. I like that they took notes from season 1 and made some good changes. For example, the Tum and Tar relationship. BL is finally starting to get out of this step bros thing, and I love the idea of introducing a new love interest for Tum. Like I think we need more BLs that have characters actually dating instead of this idea that you have to end up with the first person you fall in love with or whatever trope we see all the time. Also, I loved that we got to see how Ae dealt with his feelings after Pete left. Did he need that much screen time? No lol but some of it was valid especially how his friends like Pond helped him out. Now, I will say I was originally a fan of Techno and Kengla when I was younger and watched season 1 (I was a newbie and very dumb) so I could have done without them continuing this storyline, but again I am glad that they at least did not romanticize what Kengla did. Did he deserve Techno? Absolutely not! I am glad they at least acknowledged what he did was wrong. Lastly, I don't think we needed to relive all the TinCan scenes, but they were my first ship and I'm a sucker for them lol

alla gente non va mai bene nulla

una volta ho letto una recensione che cominciava come: l’utente di my drama list è come quello di Reddit, non gli va mai bene nulla. e lì per li non capivo (anche perché non uso Reddit), però uso MDL e finalemte ho capito. la storia non è la più grande piece teatrale della storia dei BL, però voglio dire, non fa così schifo come ho visto molti commentare. ripeto, Ae è un po’ una lagna (che io lo capisco che è triste e tutto, però praticamente tutta la sua storia gira attorno a questo e io lo capisco che Perth non voleva che venisse sostituito Saint, però forse ne avrebbe giovato), ad una certa comincia a piacerti anche Tul, ha e non comprendi come Tum e Tar che nel primo sembravano tutto forché fratelli di sangue si trasformano in tali. ecco, ora non è male, certo c’è di meglio, ma è molto lontano dalla cosa peggiore che ho visto. Mean e Plan hanno una discreta chimica e le scene di loro a letto post sex sono molto dolci (e Tin ha almeno un terzo dei complessi in meno nella prima parte quindi te lo rendono leggermente più piacevole) solo che non comprendo come sia possibile che due persona che hanno così tanta chimica in tutte le scene non ne abbiano quando si baciano. a me comunque non interessa, non sono quella che cerca il bacio in ogni episodio e non me ne può fregar di meno se la serie è piena di scene NC meno. sono contenta che abbiano parlato dei problemi delle scene di Kengla e Techno e come al solito, appena vedo una scena di Mark mi sono ritrovata n volte a dire “mamma come mi piace come attore” (però questi sono problemi miei). detta la cosa di Tum e Tar e detta quella di Tul (che come per magia si riscopre anche lui appartenere al mondo dei BL, anche se già lo sapevo perché alcune cose delle storia già le sapevo) e sottolineato che amo Perth, ma il suo personaggio era un po’ una lagna, devo dire, c’è di peggio e che se si vuole vedere la continuazione delle coppie del primo (tranne Tin e Can che secondo me hanno giovato del riscoperto protagonismo) merita anche perché Tin e Can hanno una caratteristica che mi piace come coppia: si parlano (o almeno Can lo fa) e I misunderstanding durano molto poco. quindi Kudos per questo. poi già la prima stagione non era la cosa migliore del mondo (quindi uno non si aspetta che lo sia anche la seconda) però c’è as always molto peggio.

Be warned, this is how I feel, I know not everyone will feel the same. To each their own. +foul language

But fuck this whole season. I for one should have actually read who the couple would be. That was my mistake. I can not stand Mean. Don't like him, don't like his character. Usually I try to separate the actor from the character but *HELL NO*. Not this time. Through this whole show I just kept seeing what he did to Earth and all the disgusting remakes he had made and it made me sick.

I didn't understand this season at all - the time line was extremely fucked up and things have happened that were never clarified like oh suddenly Pete is gone? Why? "To help Ae." --- what in the hell of WHY?! I stuck around trying to find out the reason and of course I stuck around to support Earth (even if his parts were small. I would watch anything for this cinnamon roll).

I don't understand why they suddenly tossed in new relationships and new people... What was the reason?! It's the last season (that we know of), so make that make sense to us!!

And can we talk about all the S/A that happened in this season? And the fact that people were just okay with it happening? What the actual fuckery? Like when what's-his-face took advantage of Techno while he was drunk and then said HE came on to him and all that shit. Continued to chance after Techno, suddenly spill the beans later and oops now they're a couple. Wtf?

And Tul's wife and kid?? This made me want to scream at the screen. So you cheated on your boyfriend...? I just... what the hell.

This show y'all.... it is a gotdamn MESS! and the ending doesn't make it any better. Ae been pining this WHOLE damn time like to the point it is unhealthy af, then at the end we get a "I'm back". Bro, you said what now? That's it? That's the end scene? You shitting me right now?

There was lkjglkfeughlieruhbeirugv What was there to like? Nothing. Okay I take that back.. Earth. Earth was to like, to love, to adore. I'm biased and I' fine with that. Lol

All in all though... It shouldn't have even been called "season 2" it could have been a special........ Not that that would have made it made any more sense. I really wish I knew what went through their minds that could justify it being this way. and FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS RAINBOW IF YOU MAKE ANOTHER SEASON PLEASE KEEP THE SAME ACTORS!!!! I'm so so so sooooooooo sick of the constant actor changes. X_X It makes me feel like I'm watching a whole ass different series. I said what I said.

What a waste of a second season!

Given how popular season 1 was and how much expectation there was for season 2, I'm sure this will be yet another review in the probably hundredths of reviews but here goes.

What a way to waste a second season... and I explain it in several points:
1) What was the point of re-telling the Tin-Can story? One thing that made season 1 so popular was the ending this couple got and how season 2 was going to fix it. Well, it didn't happen until episode 7. Instead, the absence of Pete made the director and writer reset Tin and Can from zero. Their personalities didn't change much from season 1 to season 2 so there was no valid point to waste 6 episodes telling me things I already saw in S1.

2) What was the point of having Ae crying around like a zombie for 3 episodes and then just post daily reports in his social media accounts for Pete to see? There was virtually no interaction with Tin and some advice to Can and the rest it was him starting into the horizon and doing nothing relevant for the plot. If you kept Perth around for S2, then give him something more interesting to do or don't have him at all.

3) What was the point of Ae's friends? Bow and Pond barely appeared in S2 and then we get glimpses of Mai (played by Krit) who I thought was an interesting character but after dragging Ae to the soccer field and yelling at him his appearances started to decrease. Sammy (who plays Bow) has been very well used in other series as a secondary character who is best friend of the lead actor (see "Until We Meet Again" for an example) and I was surprised to see Yacht (who plays Pond) having a role as Fiat's friend and trying to rape Un's character in "My Gear and Your Gown", so I know they are both able to do much more than just product placement or pat Ae's back when he cries.

4) What is going on with Plan's gestures when he is in a kissing scene? The chemistry between him and Mean has always been great and they seem more or less comfortable during all the scenes in their underwear or hugging shirtless, but when it comes to kissing, Plan is simply not comfortable at all and it shows... he never kissed Mean like he wanted it and his face was always one of worry and him wanting to hear the word "cut!" to end the scene. If he is that uncomfortable or unwilling to commit to those scenes (the way Mew and Gulf do in "Tharn-Type" or even Ali and Alec in the very cute "Boys Lockdown", for example) then change the scenes. While we all wanted them to kiss, it was a bit awkward to see those very bad kisses.

5) What was the point of the Tul-Hin saga? I think the chemistry between Meen and Est was very good (especially in the last 2 episodes when they actually had scenes together) so, there was potential to develop the story way more than what we got. We wasted time with Tul acting like a jerk towards Tin but never actually doing anything too bad to him like a true drama villain might do. Then Tul will soften up around Phupha and turn to mush when he thought about or someone mentioned Hin. I get Tul and Hin have a dominant-submissive type relationship that turns into some BDSM in the book, so that would not have been very appropriate for the TV series, but for many episodes Tul was just hating Tin, secretly hoping for Hin to come back and being a good father to Phupha. I wished they developed more of their characters instead.

6) What was the point of the Kengkla-Techno story? We know Kengkla took advantage of Techno in S1 and now tries to be forgiven by doing nice things. But the storyline gets boring and annoying quickly with Kengkla stalking Techno, giving him gifts or trying to talk to him and Techno falling into a mental battle of "oh he is so cute and I like him" vs. "he took advantage of me and he lied to me" every single time. This couple could have been avoided in my opinion to focus on the potential Tum-Keen relationship that seemed to be developing but only saw glimpses of it by the final episode.

Overall the long awaited second season ended up being quite a disappointment. I saw myself just skipping through many scenes that were so predictable and/or boring. I even preferred to watch other BL series that were far less promoted (see for example "Gaya sa Pelikula", translated as "Like in the Movies" in English or "I Told Sunset About You") but that were complete surprises by how well acted, well scripted and well planned those series were compared to the mess that "LBC 2: A Chance to Love" ended up being. I love the actors and the writer but I think this was a failure.

A Lesser Sequel

This is a sequel to Love by Chance, but it doesn't have the main Bl couple from that season. I read up to see what happened to Saint, and it looks like some drama between Perth and Saint's managers led to a weird fallout. Not having Pete's character was a problem. This made Ae into a sad sack for almost the entire season. Perth does a good job with a nothing role. We also never get a clear reason why Pete and Ae break up, though they give you some information you can infer the reason, but you really have to google what happened in the book to actually get a clear picture.

All the relationships seem to assume the first season happened, except Tin and Can get a complete reboot for some reason. They reenact various scenes from the first Love by Chance season for what feels like the word-for-word but under different narrative reasons or locations. It isn't until the start of episode 7 that something new happens between Tin and Can.

I actually really like Can. He is a naive simpleton with a good heart. When he and Tin finally do get together, it is kinda adorable.

The subplot of Kla and No is still bothersome. Kla takes advantage of No when he is drunk one night, and the first season ends with them heading into a relationship because Kla gaslighted No. However, in this season, No realizes what actually happened but becomes fixated on Kla as a love interest. However, he is angry at what happened but also doesn't want to fall for his brother's best friend who is still in high school. There are so many problems with this relationship. Kla's love letters and defense of himself are deeply deeply problematic and reflect an immaturity when it comes to understanding love or romance. This subplot should have been removed or significantly altered.

The plot around Tin's brother, I think, works fine. However, the resolution between Tin and his older brother is too simple and easy.

A lot about this sequel series just doesn't work well for me. The Tin/Can relationship is enjoyable, but I don't like the fact half of the season is just retreading the same ground from the first season.

What an EPIC disappointment!!!!

I have to say! Why ...oh why ..I have been waiting for MeanPlan aka TinCan story since the LBC. But ACL was like tap water compared to champagne LBC was!

This is gonna be a long review to vent my frustrations!!!

Let me start by the pain points!
#was not a fan of retelling the storying of LBC in this, so much screentime wasted! And the timelines were mixed too, making you confused & irritated.
#WTH!!! If Pete was not there, you could have used the technic you guys did with Tharn in last scence & Type in this. Jus pretended he was there without showing him.
But to show, Ae and Pete brokeup without clearly telling the reason why. I could only assume it was due to Pete's dad threatening to expel Ae. This contradicts LBC, where Pete's mom was so happy for AePete and dad was never in picture.
#hated to see a sad wasted Ae in first 3 episode...it was lik a laugh in front of the beautiful Ae from LBC.
#dont get me started on Techno&Kla's story, if u can call it that. They had little to no scene..I would have loved to see their love develop despite their start 《yup i know Kla practically raped No》.
#the unwanted side characters...I get that they wanted to promote their Ad partners but did u have to do it oh so painfully obvious ???
#Tul's yearning and love was shown well, even if i cant accept what he did, the ending for the brothers were put well.
#TumTar, dunno what to say... I have mixed feelings with how Tum ends up with his friend.

Lets come to ACTING!!!

--Only winning point was Mean's acting !! I gave rewatch as 2.5 just for him!!! ELSE WOULD HAVE GIVEN -1
--Plan was good but when it came to intimate scences, even if Mean carried his part, Plan ruined it. Their chemistry was so better from LBC, but if only Plan had corporated a bit with Mean. This could have been an Unforgettable couple! Their Kissing was a huge let down all contributed due to Plan.
--loved Tul's aka Meen's acting, he looks so cute..cant believe he is jus 21...looked so matured in his role...will be waiting to see more of his plays.
---great disappointment: Techno's acting...what was that? Did he get worst than LBC?

OVERALL:: did not have the essence or magic of LBC...a lame try!!!!

What the heck were you thinking Mame?!
what did you do to this second season of Love by Chance?
After a wonderful first season of LBC, they give us this dissapointed 2nd season.
I dont know why they were trying to re-shaped the TinCan storyline, why didnt you just pick up from the last episode from the first season?
Then, after the re-shaped the storyline, they give us zero memorable scenes and down-grading version of the first season.
Im just...speachless
