Is anyone else watching this? I, for one, am loving this series. Although I'd love it more if the side couple (TinCan) had more screen time.

Yes, I love it as well, was quite a surprise as the initial trailers were horrible! One of my favorites so far, if only 'pete' could act better

Honestly, I don't think he's that bad. And it's his first acting gig, right? But then again I don't pay too much attention to their acting skills unless it's painfully bad.

I agree - I've definitely seen worse from thai bl, that's for sure.
All the actors are very young in this and I think they're doing pretty good so far. I'm curious to see where they'll end this season but I really hope there'll be a second season !

I'm interested to see what they will do with Tin&Can relationship. I just wish the Can character didn't whine so much or maybe it's just a little too much after a long day at work lol.

I'm so happy TinCan got a decent chunk of screentime this last episode. I know they aren't the main couple of the series, but I felt like they only had one or two short scenes together every episode or two and sometimes not even that. And this upcoming episode is looking even better for TinCan. I'm hoping for kiss #2; I can't wait!

As for Can, sometimes it does feel like he's a bit whiny but I don't mind it all too much because I think it fits his character well, as someone who is more on the naive and innocent side but is also very frank and outspoken. At least that's my opinion on him.

Episode 12 makes me wish the show was all about Tin and Can (even with the sweetness of Pete and Ae - Ae is my favorite of the cast). Mydramalist states that there will only be 14 episodes (Source: mydramalist.com/27393-love-by-chance)

I love Tin and Can. Episode 12 is my everything. It's been a long time coming for them to take the next step in their relationship. All I ask for now is Can accepting his feelings and kissing Tin back. A real kiss.

Lazy Subber posted a trailer for a new mini-series that will have Ae and Pete and Tin and Can (plus a few other characters from other shows - Phun and Noh from Love Sick!):



Several of the people who posted comments in the video feed think this might be a spin-off to set the stage for Love By Chance 2 (which I didn't think was actually happening!)

[dmagiclight]

I miss Noh and Phun

[mizuryuu]

Considering rights and everything. I'm surprised someone got rights to both LBC characters AND LS characters

Has anyone else watched 2 wish the series? It has a lot of the same actors and has the Tin/Can actors playing a couple.

Here is a trailer:



It was too short - and in my opinion the ending was really rushed. But I did enjoy Mean and Plan's domestic scenes at home. Yacht (as Art) played a co-worker of Mean and did his normal role of comic relief. Perth and Gun made short guest appearances - in the case of Perth, much too short an appearance.

Also, I guess there will actually be a season 2 for Love By Chance:

I watched it but subs didn't seem correct so I was thoroughly confused with what was going on. So I'm gonna try and see if I can find some subs that make sense and watch it again.

I wouldn't normally post about a straight romantic comedy - but My Bubble Tea has been an absolute delight so far (I'm part way through episode 2). Basically Light (played by Mean who plays Tin in Love By Chance) gets a love potion dropped on him that makes him fall madly in love with Modem. It has a love triangle - where the boss of one of the companies that Modem is a contractor for falls for her to. The love potion was made by Modem's aunt (? - not quite sure if that is the relationship or not) as a birthday gift. Modem's brother was in My Tee.



You would not believe how much it brightened my day seeing Mean shirtless on a motorcycle - he is looking really fit.

I downloaded this pic a couple of weeks ago from somewhere or other and then promptly forgot all about it. It's the new actors who will be joining for season 2 in main roles.





I don't know any of their names or who they will play, although it doesn't look like the actor who played Champ in the original has returned so maybe one of them will take that role.

[antistatic]

Looks like we now have a transmission date:

[antistatic]

After postponing their August launch date WeTV have now announced LBC2 will begin on Wednesday 2nd September.

Included in their latest statement is the proviso that "International Fans will be told on Thursday 20th August how they will be able to watch the series."

Love by Chance is now on Viki

www.viki.com/tv/37301c-love-by-chance

It's the first Thai BL on Viki and one of the first thai bls to travel internationally.

Studio Wabi Sabi posted a trailer:



Sadly without subtitles.

[kevvoi]

Just Thai Boys Love posted the trailer with English subtitles:

Viki have posted the schedule for the episodes. Looks like folk with Viki's VIP pass get the next episode a week earlier than everyone else.

I wasn't sure whether to mention this news or not but decided to go ahead because it has caused some LBC2 filming to be suspended.

Seems that actor Plan (Can) blacked-out at home last week and was rushed to hospital where he was diagnosed with Dengue Fever, a viral infection caused by mosquitoes. Although not usually life threatening the fever can be quite debilitating and generally leaves victims weak for a while afterwards. Plan needed an infusion and according to his sister: "Hemorrhagic spots are everywhere".


Image made available by Plan's mother

Pics of Mean (Tin) and Perth (Ae) visiting him in hospital have been doing the rounds today. As has a tweet from the man himself which translates as: 
"Plan apologizes to the Love By Chance 2 crew for delaying filming. Currently, after a blood test, the doctor tells me I have dengue fever. But please don't worry, I'll be back soon as possible."

Considering he plays a hyperactive character I'm wondering if his weakened condition might prove problematic for filming.

[antistatic]

So, apparently the TinCan story is being retold from the very beginning rather than continuing it from where it was at the end of the first season. I suppose that explains why we saw a fully clothed Tin in the shower again in the trailer.
