One of best BL's out there
If you want to watch a beautiful BL with insane chemistry - watch Tale of Thousand Stars!
The story is well made. It's slow paces but the leads make each episode better than the other. The characters are written beautifully, the breathtakkng scenery and love the side characters too! It's worth mentioning about Tian's character growth from being the spoiled rich kid to learning about himself is brilliant. This isnt only story about love but self growth, discovery about yourself and life.
At first I wasn't sure why this BL seemed so familiar but then after couple episodes it me: it reminds of Sotus the Series (maybe it's just me?), not from the plot but the insane off the roots chemistry the leads have just by staring at each other. Sotus was also focusing less on touching and the pure, unconditional love they had and they didn't need to kiss or touch to show it. I absolutely love that when BL's do it.
I've always been a fan of that Grumpy x Sunshine love trope, where the grumpy one slowly gets to open up.
Phu is one of my favorite characters. At first he's seen as strict, very stern, not smiling. Him and Tian keep bickering yet have this chemistry off the roots from first scenes together. Phu slowly opens up to Tian, you see him slowly losening up and being less stressed. He falls for Tian and I loved we see him only smile with him. Those small, yet powerful stares they share - they don’t need any kissing scenes or spicy ones cos the eyes and their body language tells it all! God, I love stories like this where they don’t need touching because their gazes simply tell how much in love they are. That moment leading up to the most anticipated kiss.. soo worth it!!
(Though, just my opinion: no kissing for two years? I know they wanted it to be this romantic kiss but that got me thinking lmao)
The reason I am not giving this series 10 (I really wanted to) was the unnecessary drama at the end. It didn't fit the shows focus and shifted it for me too much, some of the drama between Tian and Phu seemed OOC for being there only for the sake of drama. The gang drama would have been enough - but Phu working for his dad all along was too much. Some of it seemed to be made up at the spot to create so much drama, when there was barely none in the previous episodes. They could have just done that Tian chose to study in America and Phu to wait for him (the scene at the wedding.. angsty for the sake of angst).
Despite this, I really enjoyed this and think it's one of the best BL's made for a long time.
