Sam is the Master of Pining
Foundational Romance Tropes? Enemies to lovers + long term pining + sunshine/tsundere
There’s some pretty epic pining in BL, and while Sarawat certainly wins for Thailand and Kurosawa for Japan, Gao Shi De pines for Olympic gold in We Best Love. The way he looks at fierce kitten Zhou Shu Yi broke my heart.
Is there a better pairing than soft af seme and tough af uke? Not in my book (probably because my book started with 90s yaoi.)
The story line is compressed and watered down because this is Korean BL so each season is too short. But the acting and production values are top notch, and in the end the performances are so good they entirely sweep away a flawed plot and thin narrative arc. It’s rare for me to like a show DESPITE the story, We Best Love stands with To My Star as one of the few. It's GREAT.
