Yes begitu
Jujur jujuran aja ya, drama ini bagus, bahkan masuk ke drama yang bestlah, tapi gue ga terlalu suka, ga tau kenapa bawaannya yaudah gitu.Kita bahas satu satu,
Story... Dari segi cerita, yang gue suka banget itu, dia menceritakan feeling-nya, untuk cerita alurnya maaf banget tapi saya agak kurang sreg. Iya gue tau bagusss, sampe dibikin season ke2 nya, tapi masih banyak PR disini.
Act... Disini gue berani ngasih 8, jujur, gue kalo ngasih review bener bener review, gue sepanjang nonton dram drama BL baru beberapa kali puas, gue jaranggg banget ngasih diatas 7.5, artinya apa bang mesi? Artinya actnya bagusss, udah ga usah diraguin lah, King kong enter emang bagus artis artisnya, ya kali dibawah naungan Starship kualitasnya jelek.
Music, GA TERLALU MERHATIIN, buta yeah it's quite good thoo
Rewatch value? I'll give it 5, karena fifty fifty, antara ya baguss, cuman ga terlalu membuat saya ingin rewatch, karena alurnya terlalu soft

Grab Some Egg Kimbap, Sit Down, and Prepare to Sob & Squeal Your Heart Out, Fans!
As a lover of all things LGBTQ+ (and as a member of said community) this series contained some of the best components/scenes across the current Korean bl shows. Now one of my all time favorite bl dramas (Korean), To My Star gave soft, fluffy smiles (bless Seo Joon’s face), mouthwatering cooking shots (please cook for me Ji Woo), and *spoiler* some of the best kissing scenes that Korean bl dramas have to offer (as of 2021). I found both characters to be quite relatable although sometimes I felt Ji Woo’s sudden shout fits to be slightly misplaced, I just chalked it up to the strive for authenticity as a human being rather than a perfect love interest/main character. I continuously fell for the charms of Seo Joon and the growth of their relationship was the right mix of dramatically bitter and satisfyingly sweet. There were some questionable moments (still confused as to who that random english-speaking visitor who appeared at both Ji Woo’s residence and the restaurant) that managed to leave me concerned for the writers as it was unclear how each of these scenes would impact either the characters themselves or the plot as a whole. Overall, I’ve uncovered another comfort bl drama to rewatch as I naively deny the fact that my plan to watch list has grown astronomically since I made this account (not including the dramas not listed on this site). Can’t wait to see our boys again in season two (which is hopefully still coming!)Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Cute but confusing towards the end
Needing to lay low after an incident that causes his popularity to decline, actor Kang Seo Joo is tasked to stay at the house of Han Ji Woo, a chef that works at a local restaurant. They first meet when Seo Joo has to go to the bathroom and decides to stop at a restaurant. He asks the young man to make him something quick and delicious but ends up not eating the dish because of the egg on top.The two don't start out so well. Ji Woo is cold towards him which Seo Joo doesn't understand. He even mentions that he wants to get closer to him a few times. When someone throws rocks at the window, Ji Woo confronts him and gives him a glass of water. This marks a turning point for them. Seo Joo even starts working at the restaurant that Ji Woo is working at.
They play basketball which was just a funny and cute scene. For someone who is suppose to keep a low profile, he is not doing a good job of that. He keeps telling people who he is. The drunken kiss is another turning point in their relationship and the confession made my heart leap. It was sweet and sincere.
I knew there was something going on with Ji Soo boss. The restaurant wasn't doing well and I thought he may have been jealous of Seo Joo because of how close he was to Ji Woo. I am still confused about the tape that was the cause of Seo Joo hiding. There was something in it that showed he wasn't the one responsible for the fight. And I still don't understand what was going on with the boss of the café. I wish that were more easier to understand.
I did enjoy the other confession. 'If you are unable to, then I will come to you." Seo Joo states (not the direct quote but something along those lines). It shows that Seo Joo understands Ji Woo may not be able to say it, but he does care and is just pushing him away because he does not want to get hurt.
I do wish that we got to know more about Ji Woo and what events happened in his life to make me not get close to people and I am curious why loud noises affect Seo Joo. In the end, the two stay living together and Seo Joo signs on to do a movie.
I see there is a season 2 so I will be watching that soon.

great chemistry, captivating story, great balance of softness and horniness
This BL has it all. A soundtrack that slaps, amazing call-backs and parallels, a couple with great chemistry, a story filled with compassion, angst, fluff, a little spice, and three-dimensional characters. I am totally in love with it and have rewatched it countless times and can't wait for the second season.Every good show has at least one memorable moment that stays with you even after you finish watching it. And honestly, this show had SEVERAL moments that all live rent-free in my head, and I am not complaining in the slightest.
It's one of the very few BLs that actually don't feel cut short or oddly rushed but still leave some room for more (like a second season ;)).

Very Beautiful
I’m always looking for what series to watch nice and at the moment I’m in between a few that have episodes not released yet. To My Star caught my attention and I’m glad it did what I found was this series was short but very sweet and sincere. The story stayed on part and wasn’t rushed at all due to the episodes being shorter then 20 minutes the amount of time almost reminds me of Where Your Eyes Linger. In this tale we see two people come together and fall in love of course with any drama the new pairs bond is tested In a unique way. At no point was I lost or bored with the story I think everyone should give it a watch you won’t regret!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
The appearance of an unexpected character changes the life of a quiet, introverted young chef
To My Star: Best Korean BL in my opinion. A pity that it's so short but even still, everything fits just right and both actors are really talented and played their characters very well. Their interactions are really cute and the best part is there isn't a second couple so all the story is focused on them and them only, hence a very well developed plot with little to no loopholes.Perhaps a bit of bias on my side but I would always prefer if a series just focuses on one couple only so the plot can be more fulfilling.
Back to the main point, this series shows how a quiet and introverted young chef opens himself up to the character that suddenly appeared in his life. And then somehow the actor first fell in love with the chef, but the chef was being unsure and insecure but eventually accepted the actor.
Perhaps the only thing lacking in this series is how they actually fell for each other in the first place. I was hoping they could include parts where they explain how they actually feel for each other rather than just 'time' that brought them together

Come in with no expectations and you'll have a fun time!
Honestly I have nothing actually negative to say about this show. First and foremost, I come into BLs wanting to see cute boys be cute together and a somewhat decent plot and a good time. This show pretty much delivered! The story is not groundbreaking in any way, but it's a cute little show to watch for a bit and get your BL satisfaction in. I appreciate how they kept things simple honestly. The only thing I wondered during the show was "damn none of these people got better things to do?" cause the main issue of the story is really not that deep but it's also the biggest deal ever which i guess. all in all i recommend! It's also short which is a huge plusVond je deze recentie nuttig?
What I really want to see from a drama
I'm not saying anything about cliches. To be honest they exist even in real life. The plot went like an ordinary story. But I think that's what made it so ,how should I put it ..peaceful to watch. There were romance, cuteness, fun but without any unnecessary slow motion or unrealistic lengthy eye gazing. The story flowed really comfortably. It was a romance story but didn't feel trivial. The acting was also really great. The chemistry was awesome. Though there wasn't that much cringe moments. Don't know why I was getting giddy watching it. Liked it very much . Would recommend 😊Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
worth a watch
I really enjoyed this drama. Its a slice of life story with realisistic plot points considering who the characters are. The acting overall was good especially Son Woo Hyun who played the main lead. i really enjoyed his characther as he was written to be really straight forward with expressing his feeling so there wasnt any "accidental miscommunication" trope happening.The characters in general where engaging and interesting to watch.
The only thing i would change is that the drama is quite short and thus the relationship feels a bit rushed especially the ending. If there wouldve been even one more episode i feel it wouldve tied the story up more neatly.
over all worth a watch
Check out the second season too!

The story was a bit plain and I would have loved for the characters to be a little more developed.... but for the length of it, it was good enough. This needs to be a full series. We need some more depth into the side stories as well. I mean there are characters in there that make absolutely no sense. What's going on with Kang Seo Joon's parents? Where's the backstory about his fear? What happens to Kim Hyung Ki? What happens to Yang In Woo? Give me some more information! Please!!!
I have to say though... I was very impressed by the acting, especially by Son Woo Hyun.

Ich habe die Dialoge und Entwicklungen teilweise nicht verstanden. Manche Dinge waren für mich überhaupt nicht nachvollziehbar. Da hätte man hier und da eventuell mehr ausarbeiten können, damit es auch verständlich ist, wieso sich gewisse Dinge in eine Richtung entwickelt haben. Es bleiben viel zu viele Fragen offen. Das hat eine andere Person bereits in ihrer Review erwähnt und ich kann mich da voll und ganz anschließen. Hintergrundinformationen gibt es so gut wie keine. Man erfährt nicht, wieso bestimmte Dinge so sind, wie sie sind, oder wieso gewisse Informationen erwähnt werden. Es gibt so viele Fadenanfänge, die quasi nicht verknüpft werden, was ein bisschen frustrierend ist. Es sind teilweise spannende Themen, die mich näher interessieren würden und keine Auflösung zu bekommen ist nervig.
Staffel 2 werde ich mir auf jeden Fall ansehen! Die Schauspieler haben eine angenehme Chemie und ich bin gespannt, wie es weiter geht. Obwohl ich tatsächlich schon Dramen gesehen habe, die mich mehr fühlen ließen. Aber gut, nicht jedes Pairing kann einen so vom Hocker reißen. Vielleicht liegt es aber auch an anderen Dingen. Jemand erwähnte, dass Where your eyes linger und To my star den gleichen Direktor haben? Und da gab es ein ähnliches Problem. Die Chemie ist zwar irgendwie vorhanden, aber ich fühlte mich nicht so angetan von den Pärchen. Ich habe das Gefühl, dass die Rolle des Parts, der zuerst distanziert und abweisend ist, zuuu abweisend ist und dann nicht den Umschwung dazu schafft, näher und intimer zu wirken. Zumal es eben auch Schwierigkeiten bereitet, wenn man als Zuschauer so viele offene Fragen hat und man das Verhalten der Figuren nicht nachvollziehen kann, weil es zum Teil wirkt, als wären wahllos Szenen zusammengestellt worden, die keinerlei Sinn ergeben, weil der Kontext fehlt. Das größte Problem der Serie ist tatsächlich, dass die Handlung einfach nicht nachvollziehbar ist, weil die Dinge nicht erklärt werden.
Diese wirre Handlung und die vielen offenen Fragen, mit denen man zurück bleibt, drücken die Bewertung doch ziemlich deutlich, weil ich zur Zeit einfach nur confused bin, was da jetzt überhaupt wieso passiert ist. Aber man kann das Drama definitiv anschauen und vielleicht wird in Staffel 2 ja auch irgendwas aufgelöst.
EDIT: Nachdem ich nun Staffel 2 beendet habe: Ja, es werden manche Dinge aufgeklärt, aber nicht alle. x)

Storia molto carina.
Non ne vedo molti BL per mancanza di tempo ma questo così corto mi incuriosiva e ho fatto bene a vederlo,mi vedrò subito anche la seconda stagione.Drama corto ma molto ben fatto,carina la storia della superstar/idol e il ragazzo un po' freddo.Molto carino loro due come attori e alla fine ne viene fuori una bella intesa,piacevole da vedere.Molto divertenti i altri personaggi soprattutto l'AD con quella faccia da duro ma che poi così divertente.
Mi è piaciuto abbastanza anche se forse avrei preferito delle puntate più lunghe.
