No…just no
I can’t encourage you enough to NOT watch this. I don’t have much of a critical eye, so you can trust me when I say this drama was just not good.I was sort of okay with it in the beginning it wasn’t amazing but it was fine. But once the nonconsensual behavior started I lost all interest in the characters. WHY would Bao Luoyin fall for the guy who is LITERALLY SA’ing him? Why would I want him to?
I finished it just for the sake of closure and didn’t even get that!!! It ends with a crazy random cliffhanger and there’s no season two.
Overall a disappointing show with a disappointing ending. Save your time and watch something good like KinnPorsche.

Hilarious and Cute
Listen. I get why people didn’t like it. The story was sloppy. But it was an A+ comedy for me. I laughed so hard it was ridiculous. I loved the characters, parts of the story, and the ending was really sweet.Like come on when he confesses by asking to borrow money? So funny and SO CUTE. I would rewatch just for the cute, silly, summer vibes.
Watch if you like fun, silly, BLs that don’t take themselves too seriously. Skip if you prefer drama, tension, and conflict in a drama.
Also BounPrem forever <3

One of the Best BLs I’ve seen in ages
You’re My Sky was truly a treat. I was worried the sports storyline would ruin it for me but I ended up suddenly caring about basketball?? The “rebound” metaphor and teamwork really lends to the story.I loved all three of the main couples and their unique trials and triumphs were had me engaged throughout the show.
The one critique I have is the same one everyone else does - those time jumps! Not the “6 months later” at the end, but the random ones in the middle of the series. It was confusing and felt really lazy on behalf of the production team. I want to give them the benefit of the doubt and believe that it’s because of COVID or some other extenuating circumstances, but either way it does impact the story negatively.
All in all this is one of the best BLs I’ve seen in a long time. It manages to avoid harmful tropes and has well-rounded and realistic characters. I highly recommend!

I did not know love until I watched UWMA
Okay listen. I’ll admit the reincarnated lovers trope drew me in but omg I was shocked at how brilliant this show was. The chemistry of the characters, the storyline, everything was spot-on. I was so invested in the love story. The characters really made me feel for them and I was definitely rooting for them in the end.My only (very minimal) critiques:
I did want to see more of Win/Team but that may just be a personal preference. I love them so much. I would def watch a Win/Team spin-off.
Ja’s horrible wig. Who did that to him? I just wanna talk ?

Everyone Else is Wrong
I honestly don’t know why everyone is hating on this series so much. I really liked it!Don’t get me wrong, COS is far from perfect. The storyline gets sloppy and there are some editing errors ($ to whoever spots the recording equipment in one scene or Daonuea’s rapid underwear change in another).
But all in all I thought it was a sweet and sexy little number. The ?️was ?️?️?️. We were indeed fed. and I loved all the characters.
The acting was great and I loved seeing a Thai/Iranian actor (we stan Chahub).
TLDR: contrary to some reviews this series was pretty good and you should watch it!!!

Really strong, nearly perfect, I loved it
KinnPorsche the series has it all and I enjoyed every second. The storyline, acting, and pacing is great. I love the cast and their chemistry is great. I’ve never been one for action or mafia series but KP totally changed my mind. The BTS content is a wonderful addition.I hear and understand some of the legitimate critique of the series. I took off .5 for some problematic tropes but even those were handled pretty well considering how they were written in the novel version. I think these are far made up for in other ways in the series and I look forward to the growth of the characters. This is a mafia romance - the men in it are Bad Guys™️ which is important to know going in.
I will be watching again and again and anxiously awaiting the next season!
