Synposis:
“Love across Frontiers” Part 2 serious went Korean style on our bums–memory lost, crazy love triangles, and Mike suffering from cancer, this is absurdly Korean drama at its best.
I’m assuming a year or 2 have passed, Golf and Pat (Peak) are in a stable relationship and so are Pern (Toey) and Mike. Mike and Golf are now big time singers, who have just released their first album and of course because this is a drama, it’s a major hit. Because of crazy fangirls who don’t want their teen idols to have girlfriends, Golf and Pat have to keep their relationship a secret. Both Pat and Golf are having a hard time dealing with it.
One day, Pat and Golf arrange a get-together at a cafe to sort out their problems, Golf doesn’t come and Pat doesn’t pick up her phone when he calls. As she is leaving the cafe, Pat is hit by a car. Physically, Pat is fine;however, she did receive trauma to the head and is inflicted with temporary- partial amnesia. Pat can remember everyone but GOLF.
In an attempt to recover her memory, he writes her song. When she listens to it, she remembers that she loved him but doesn’t remember the good times they had together, she remembers only the bad moments. Pat breaks up with Golf and returns to her normal life. She later meets March (Yot) and they start dating.
On with Mike…Mike has been getting a lot of headaches and fainting spells, he goes to the hospital for a check up and learns he has brain cancer. Mike hides this from girlfriend Pern (Toey) and she assumes he is seeing someone else because he is being secretive and goes off on his own quite often.
Eventually Pern finds out about the illness and she writes a fairytale story for him. At this point, the gang (Golf, Pern, and Pat) join forces to fold origami paper cranes for Mike because in Japan their is a belief that if you fold 1000 paper cranes for a sick person, their sickness will disappear.
As they spend more time together, Pat realizes that she still loves Golf but is not sure how to proceed. Also, she doesn’t want to hurt March. Her relationship with March is made easier with the appearance of Pern’s young cousin, Oobyid (Mai). Oobyid secretly has a crush on March and slowly March starts to develop feelings for her.
——
Will Mike die of cancer, my guess is “NO” because this is a teen comedy.
Will Golf and Pat get back together…umm…yea, isn’t it obvious.
Will March and Oobyid end up together, yeppers.
“Love across Frontiers 2″ will be a predictable lakorn, consequently that is not important. The execution to the end result is what is important. Will this lakorn make us laugh and cry? Among teens, it will. Among old heads like me, probably not.
I guess that is why it’s popular, there is not a lot of Thai Teen Themed drama as compared to Korea or Japan and young Thais are craving for something like this. No matter how poorly acted or poorly scripted this lakorn will be a hit. I must clarified for those crazy Golf and Mike fans, I’m not saying “Love across Frontiers 2″ will be a terrible lakorn, I’m just saying regardless teens will watch it.
Hopefully with the success of “Love Across Frontiers” there will be more teen oriented lakorns, it’s a blooming market, executives should take note.
Continue for pictures.

Opening ceremony PICTURES: I believe “Love across frontiers 2″ will be filmed Korean style too, filming as they go. Yesterday they had their opening ceremony and in 2 weeks, it will air. Kinda rushed, don’t you think?
yo hav u seen the movie wat u talkin ’bout it’s awesome dont be hatin on the movie
the plot is quite nice…i am waiting to see it…:>
hi every one i want mike golf peak toey play a new movie ok cos i love all or them is can i’m very happy to watch i never watch the special dramar that i ever watch i very love them and want them to make new dramar or like a movie and the i think the gmember can make a movie or dramar for them more ok thank you wish all of u good luck
All YOU HATERS who DISLIKE them are just some
NOLIFES!!don’t hate them!yall just aren’t into
it like others maybe!WTF? and to be honest
yess,it doesn’t make any sense why the movie is
like this and i just don’t get it myself!!but still ppl!
it’s GM your saying crap about!and this lakorm!
DON”T HATE PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My question is: if this is a Thai lakorn, then why the hell does the cast (the main ones, anyhow) look so japanese/korean?! No offense to any fans of this lakorn, but what the hell is going on? I really can’t stand those korean hairstyles and all, not to mention the plot line. Gosh, I hope this will be the only drama like this.
LMAO that is why I watch Thai lakorn, they don’t have that illness and lose memory Korean-ish theme. But I guess Thailand is leaning towards it.
The plot doesn’t make me want to watch !
It is so korean…I like korean drama but only because It is made by korean and thai.
This one sounds more ridiculous than dramatic.
I like that Mike is more “well-groomed”
he looks better with shorter and less hair covering his face.
Aww, it stars on Valentine’s Day, how adorable =D
Must you even clarify anything with the crazy fans? I haven’t seen any lately.
As stupid (and may I add pointless?) as this plot is, I actually think it’s a tad better than the first one. However, that depends on how these newb actors/actresses carryout their roles.
Nonetheless, I going to watch this lakorn (no matter how ridiculous it is), and pray their future drama projects are better and not so half-@ssly put together. It’s not like the cast decides on the storyline anyway.
Lyn.. I’m an old head too.. so I probably won’t laugh or cry if I watch this teen movie. lol
I really never cared all that much for teen dramas except Roswell I loved that show. Korean, Twainesse, I find to have the best teen dramas. I couldn’t even watch the first LAF it was to boring. It reminded me of gossip girl like style whinning and annoying. I agree with everything Lyn said. I will wait patiently for both Aum and Aff’s and Ken and Anne’s lakorns those are always the best.
blah. i can’t wait to see this but dang!
the storyline went somewhat dumb. part one was better..buttah yeah i guess.haha ;]
thanks :]
hmm.. Lyn makes me laugh with her side comments ^^
No offense to anyone, but reading the synopsis made me laugh really bad. Like I said, I’d rather see Mike and Golf in a new drama with a new storyline and cast. Sequels never do too well for the most part.
