A cute little adventure

It's nice to see the Korean industry taking another step towards LGBT content. This past year they've been dipping their toes more and more in BL territory and I love it. While the story is very simple and barebones, To My Star offers a short but sweet look into the lives of two very opposite people as they enter each other's worlds. A quiet, stoic chef suddenly finds his space invaded by a flirty, outgoing actor who's trying to lie low after a scandal threatens his career and sparks fly. The story doesn't go too deep into who these characters are, where they came from or how they got here, it does give us just enough to tell what kind of people they are. In web dramas, there is never enough time to really get the full story. The crew needs to pick and choose the level of detail they can handle and what parts should be sacrificed, and more often than not that's nuance. Fortunately, To My Star makes up for its losses with a nice, slow romance that isn't half as unhealthy as most of the titles in the genre.

Definitely worth a watch. It's short and sweet and won't take up much of your time, and it's the perfect way to enjoy the genre if you're not a fan of high school romances. There are better titles out there, but that doesn't make this one any less cute.
