I Promised You the Moon

I Promised You the Moon continues the story of Teh and Oh-aew from I Told Sunset About You, and wow, it really takes their journey to a more mature and emotional level. I loved seeing their character growth as they transitioned from high school to university life. There's something really special about watching characters grow up, and this series handles that beautifully.

It's a bit sad that they're no longer in the same university, and that distance definitely adds tension to their relationship. As their love deepens, they also face more complex issues, especially with Teh's confusion about his feelings and the heartbreaking moment when he cheats. As painful as it is to watch, I found that part of the story very realistic. Relationships in real life are messy, and this series doesn't shy away from showing that.

What really stands out is how the show portrays the struggles of adult relationships-uncertainty, temptation, regret. It's raw and emotional in a way that's rare in BLs. Teh may have made a huge mistake, but I appreciated that the series let him feel the weight of his actions and try to make amends. That regret felt honest, not just scripted.

Also, let's talk about the acting, phenomenal. Bilkin especially gave such a heartfelt performance, and PP was incredible as always. You can really feel their emotions in every scene.

Overall, I Promised You the Moon is a bit painful, but beautifully done. It's not just a love story, it's a story about growing up, making mistakes, and learning from them. Definitely worth watching if you want something more emotionally deep and realistic.

It took me one night after finishing I Told Sunset About You to start part 2, and right off the bat, I got hit with the humor and the beautiful cinematography again. The only thing is that the description made me panic. Rightfully so. I questioned if I should've just stopped after the first part, but then I wouldn't get to see the complete story between these two. I knew I was going to cry because I love this pair so much.

Let's be honest, it was almost always his fault. He always had something to feel guilty over. My heart is with Oh-aew forever, and I'm so glad he has his friends. I forgot the reason I don't usually watch realistic love stories until I started this. I hate to watch the couple I love so much fight, as most people do. Still, this film was insanely well made with each portrayal of emotions, every scene, and their growth. Loneliness, guilt, uncertainty, growing apart, longing, and reconnection. It was beautifully made each episode, despite adult hardships there is only one for each other and I do recommend it.
