1000 Stars is wonderfully different from GMMTV's usual series and revolutionary in the BL world with openly gay characters and supportive friends/family! The acting and plot alone deserve ten stars. Earth and Mix's chemistry was off the charts! Their shared looks held more emotion than some kisses I've seen. Tian and Longtae's friendship was so pure and a great edition. The scene where Tian is trying to count the stars will have my heart forever; finally, someone told him his life is his and not someone else's. That last episode ripped my heart out and left me in tears with 'goodbyes' from everyone and Phupha coming in from the background at the wedding. The way Tian let go of that second hug in the airport and the forehead kiss?! There are still things I didn't like and want to talk about. Tian is Tian, not Torfun; that heart is his, and her death should not have been made to feel like Tian's fault. Tian has gone through trauma over and over again and hasn't even gotten proper apologies from so many people. I understand why Phupha was mean to Tian, but he's no saint either. He was lying and making Tian seem like a bad guy when Phupha himself didn't know the whole story. Shout out to Tian for going through so much shit and still never forgetting that he was there to teach the kids; he always showed up. With all that said, this drama earned every bit of hype it got and will be something I recommend to friends.
