This Taiwanese BL series was adapted from a book which is banned in China. Pfft... China banning everything about homosexuality, what else is new? I'm so glad to see the book was being adapted into a beautiful series. This story is thick with family drama, which can easily be boring, but not in this case. The main lead of this series is a big brother who adopted a little orphan who was abandoned on the streets. His life was polluted with crime when the main lead got involved with a gang in order to provide for his little sister and adopted brother. His struggle and love for his family is the main focus for the whole series. For those who are worried about the ending, I'm telling you not to fret. Because the ending is very satisfying. Remember, it's a Taiwanese BL series, not Chinese. It doesn't end with death or separation. Or both, like how the Chinese government have always forced their film makers to do in order to get past their myopic censorship abuse. Is it any wonder that people are more supportive of Taiwan being freed from the monstrous clutch of China?

This Taiwanese series is a gem, a wonderful series that, along with the music, photography, and incredible performances, provides the perfect framework to showcase this tremendously human and profound story. It is undoubtedly one of the memorable series I have come across this year. This series tells a story of deep familial love, growth, and resilience where a clan of children survives and matures in love. It has fascinated, thrilled, and deeply moved me. The good script, direction, and excellent casting are evident. Actor Mao Di shines as the older brother who takes on the responsibility of caring for his sister and this child whom he embraces wholeheartedly as part of his family. I absolutely recommend it.

Taiwanese actors are really in the elements. This is especially true for the the main actor of Wei Qian. While the scripts of some other actors are kinda out of place, it is negligible. Fun fact, the teacher of the adopted brother that paid them home visit is actually Wei Qian biological elder brother in real life. The other cameo worth mentioning is Dr Lin. He is one of the main lead in another popular BL series. With only 12 episodes (30 mins each), storyline is rich but a bit lacking when it comes to the two male main leads. Some part of the storyline is fast forwarded too much. I wish there is a second season or a supplementary episode to compensate for this. Good works to actors and all the personnels involved. This is truly an enjoyable series.

BEST BL of 2024 No cap. It had a subtle storyline and gripping acting by brilliant casting . What I really liked is the character development of Wei Quan and Yuan throughout the story. Both of them successfully portrayed the true dilemma of their characters and how they grew better as individuals in the story. I liked how Yuan with his sheer determination finally won over the apprehensions of Qian , How when he came back from US he was more matured and bold , how Qian slowly realised what matters in the end are those who stood with you till the end. Be it the kindness of the Sang Pang or innocence of Lilli , The bits of humour through out the drama made it more better .Yuan in his all sassy attitude teasing Qian was fun to watch. While in most of the other bls , those intimate scenes (which I dont like usually ) are mostly out for pleasure , I liked how in this one it was not purely for that purpose, it was also a bold statement by Yuan asserting how he wanted to change the relationship dynamics between the two and wanted to prove that he could be the one standing with him till the end and that he could take the whole responsibility of family off Qian's shoulders and that he could prove to be his real life partner .This one was surely the one i would never regret watching .

I really love it, it's one of my two favorite stories (for those who want to know the other is the Thai drama - I said sunset for you/I promised you the moon). And I think this is because it is realistic and gives vibes without pretentious tension, the story is very good and not fast in telling but with good character development. First the two main actors and others also have perfect chemistry and the emotions are not forced but genuine and I feel like it's a story that could have happened somewhere near us. Not because it's bl, but because it's really worth watching, I definitely recommended it.
