Been waiting for more than a year
The much-awaited and the most anticipated thai bl drama of the year! And one I've been waiting to watch since the first trailer came out more than a year ago! WHY'D IT TAKE SO LONG?!?! But I'm not complaining anymore because omg 'A Tale of Thousand Stars' (1000stars) is everything I didn't know I needed.
It's only been five eps but i can see it getting better and better. So far, it's a slow and steady journey, which I really appreciate cause I wanna take my time adoring and loving them, and understanding every part of this series. The first episode kinda scared me because I've been looking forward to this series for a very, very long time yet it wasn't giving me the "THIS IS IT!" vibes... More than half of the first ep was about life "before" Tian's life in the village, and I was honestly getting bored, but when ep. 2 came out, I was relieved. It was what I've expected, and more! I have a feeling 1000stars is gonna be a well-paced, beautifully-told story that'll leave me wanting more and more every single time. Fingers crossed it doesn't take take too long for it to pick up its pace ^-^
So the story is about how Tian's life turned upside-down the moment he had his heart transplant. Maybe his life the right-side up was never the life meant for him :) Once he was bestowed with a new heart, he was given a second chance. No longer was he that rash, ignorant and cold, rich guy. He's now "Mr. Seetian", the soft and kind (with a bit of a stubborn streak) volunteer teacher at the Pha Pun Dao Village with a thousand-star promise somehow involved between Tian and Phupha. Phupha's a Chief Forest Office who, at first, wants nothing to do with Tian cause he thinks the younger's just a spoilt, rich boy who's come sightseeing into the village and would 'run for the hills' once things get tough. But Tian is not who he was anymore. He's a changed man, or more like he was becoming a changed man, so he's not gonna back down from a challenge anymore. As the series progresses, you can also see Phupha softening up to the "city boy", or maybe he was already soft for him from the moment they first met <3 Also, none of the people at the village know that Tian's carrying a heart that used to belong to someone dear to them, and I'm actually looking forward to when that secret's exposed. Though I'm terrified, too... Will things change? Between Tian and Phupha, but also with the villagers, because now Tian has made a home for himself at the village. They're his family now, and they adore him as much as he does them. Phupha's found out about Tian's chest scar and questioned him about it but all Tian said was "heart surgery"... There's a difference between heart surgery and heart transplant, Tian... Better tell Phupha the truth before it's too late. Better he finds it from you than from somewhere else.
Besides the plot, how can we NOT talk about the chemistry between Tian and Phupha?? It's sizzling! The way their eyes portray emotions words cannot express, I'm mind-blown. As actors, they're seriously top-tier. In real-life, Mix and Earth are already so close and you can clearly see that reflected on-screen. The relationship between Tian and Phupha is so soft and "traditional" where all they do is flirt through their eyes and love each from afar, but once they meet in the middle, game's over cause I'll be ded. Even without touching or any skinship you can see the chemistry plain as day. I'm looking forward to the day their lips touch (I'm suddenly so shy).
Another thing I'd like to comment on... Tian, my boy, what are you doing to your health? You're basically a patient but you go around climbing mountains and hills, eating spicy and unhealthy food, running around and playing vigorously, and getting yourself into fights (even though some of them aren't your fault). The way it's going, you losing consciousness is bound to happen, cause there's only so much your frail body can take. You got yourself a second chance, but third time is not always a charm. Look after yourself, please.
So, the story is progressing slowly, nothing too shocking or mind-blowing except for Tian fainting at the end of the latest ep... But I hope their engines start soon because it's already going to be ep. 6 next week and soon the series will be over ;---; Downside of being a Thai BL fan lol it's just too short x__x
