On Viki. Unfortunately, Dramacool is only up to ep 3, but worth keeping a look out for when they eventually sub ep 4. They're not usually behind, indeed quite the opposite, faster than Viki on most dramas.

OMG! Can this get any better!? Every episode is a 10/10. It's going to get even better now we're moving into the 'shit I can't stop thinking about you' zone for both. Damn, can't wait for the first kiss, please, please writers make it explosive. No bird kissing for this awesome duo.

We are definitely aligned in our thinking:-)

Hey Niko, thanks for the response. I did say they were highlights and the links I watched from @JustThai BoysLove definitely didn't have a virus. However, good to know you potentially have episodes we can now watch and continue to watch. Cheers mate. ta.

The acting is truly solid, but I have to say respect to the writer, because it's been a long, long, long time since I've liked a script this much from a SK BL writer. To My Star has only touched me in this way. The team behind this drama feels so on point and in tune. The choosing of the primary ML actors together, so on point. Chemistry I find lovely. However, also enjoying the 2Ls. Long may it continue to the finale. #Snigger. Please don't disappoint me writers and director as so many recent KL BL dramas have - I so want this drama to be the huge success it deserves:-) Don't fuck up!!

So hear you. However, have to say, for me, it's not the first SK drama of high quality and tastefully done. I need to check out the webtoon and novel and will be sure to do so, thanks for recommending.

My recent favourites, I've included below and why, whilst also those I felt missed the mark, but so could have been bloody good if the writer and director had invested more commitment and love of what they'd produced into the storyline, transgression of characters and chemistry, irrespective of low budgets to connect and engage their audience.

To My Star: Utterly, utterly beautiful. A completely new and refreshing narrative on the BL genre. Can't wait for the 2nd series coming this year. In my top 3 of absolute fave BL's.

Wish You: Great idea. Music utterly beautiful. Initial start of episodes, beautiful. Chemistry apparent... and then the plot for me got utterly stupid. No time for romance and building of chemistry to tell the story of the mains. A huge opportunity for me, completely lost.

You Make Me Dance: Such a beautiful idea for a concept. The main lead, what a beautiful, beautiful dancer and indeed actor. His scenes still resonate with me. 2ML, good. Him tying up ML with his scarf. The eggs, those fucking eggs, so poignant to the story. They honestly had beautiful moments together as 'friends', but I felt the romance was forced. Overall, it felt hugely rushed, awkward and unexplained and all down to the short episode timescales. However, worth watching.

Nobleman Ryu's Wedding. For me, a complete and utter waste of time. Story concept good, but delivery seriously bad. So many expectations and naturally excited because first historic BL from SK. Really, that's the best you could do for your first historic BL? Hang your heads in shame I say. What a joke. Beyond short to even create a flowing narrative and one fake kiss. Nah,
hugely pissed me off... and that's saying something based on the joke that was Bite Me and heterosexual drama Cupid's Kitchen.

Light On Me: I really liked this. Oh so clever. Think it's fair to say creative in the story ideal and captivation of audience, but something just missed the mark for me in the final episodes. However, a definite must watch as it is beautiful and well acted.

My Sweet Dear: Could have been bloody brilliant. I was captivated by this from the first 2 episodes, due to my love of food and quality of actors. Ruined for me with unexplained plotlines that didn't make sense and utterly shit kiss.

The Tasty Florida: I found this really lovely at the beginning and actually would give it a 7/10 as the chemistry between the leads was apparent. However, again, so much unexplained, shit flow of narrative. Again though a nice, easy watch that's worth while.

Tinted With You: Historical drama. Again, interesting story concept. Could have been so damn good. Shit delivery not from actors, but writers and director. Some cute moments. However, will we ever re-watch, or even remember? I don't think so.

Behind Cut: Could have been so damn good. This is perhaps the one I'm most disappointed in. However, definitely worth a watch. Some of the writing especially the narratives between father and son of ML and lover of ML were so beautifully scripted and poignant. Editing was shocking. Flow of storyline was shocking and at times just didn't make sense. If I had to ask for a drama to be re-shot, re-written, re-edited with same actors, it would be this one with longer episodes.

Now this is good. This is very, very good. This is what I've been waiting for and indeed expecting from South Korean short 15-20 min BL episodes. Excellent quality, scripting, writing, production and selection of actors. Most importantly, which is an absolute must for me - chemistry between the two leads. Have to admit, I felt they took their time delivering on short format dramas, but so far are doing an excellent job on this one. Love it.

Damn, I love this series even without proper English subs. So good. So lovely. Great to finally see a drama from Thailand that can do low budget well. Such a crying shame about the English subs, but we can only hope for the future.

I've been able to watch some bad subs up until ep 3 and because most of ep 4 was about Tawan and Mork, I watched it raw. However, the YouTube subbed highlights from @JustThai BoysLove are good and will have to suffice for now. He explains that he's only allowed to sub no more than 10 mins, but he beautifully captures the main parts we want to know. Although, I do really, really want to know what Mork's dad said to him in the final clip at the hospital.

Ep 4 subs today on Dramacool where much better than the previous.

Ep 4 subs today on Dramacool were much, much better than the previous.

There is on Daily Motion. The only one subbed is listed as EP 1-4

Also, most of EP 2 not subbed. I’ve let them know on Twitter.

Why wait? When you can watch what your heart oh so desires.

Great news fellow fans. Dramacool has subbed episodes 2 and 3 Whoop! Whoop!

Thanks very much for the heads-up. I was speaking about official subs. As you rightly say, I think it will be left to the fans.

I've heard through Instagram that they're not going to Eng Sub this series, which is strange. There are loads of links to episodes 1 and 2 on Dailymotion, but only one link to ep 1 is Eng Sub as a part 1-4. Dramacool first posted ep 1 raw on 27/01, so it does look like they're indeed not going to sub it and I've searched everywhere and no-one seems to be subbing. So strange. Ep 1 seemed quite good too.

So hear you. I hated the drama so much, I then went and read the novel. The drama doesn't come close in any way. I actually don't understand why the writer chose to change the drama so much and so incredibly badly.

I'm stunned this has a 9 on Viki.

Hmmm... you've taught me a lot. Thank you. Your comments around losing the community have really resonated with me. Perhaps then it would be good to have both - paid and unpaid to keep that essence.

I agree. Viki subs are the ultimate best. However, why should we wait so long when we're paying for a service? Your post made me laugh:-)
