The summer of 2021 has been pretty bleak in terms of BL. I watched about 6 series, most of them major disappointments. Light On Me has been a nice surprise, and so was Golden Blood, although it began better than it ended. Here are my pros and cons:

PROS

BOAT (SUN). Dang. The boy is gorgeous, sexy, can sing and is a decent actor. Some people really do have it all.

PITCH/BANK. A welcome second couple. Adorable.

UNUSUAL STORY. I wasn't always crazy about the direction the writers took with the story, but the action scenes -- while unbelievable -- did bring an element of uniqueness to the series.

CONS

GUN (SKY). Sorry honey, you just don't have the range of skills to play a dramatic character. The constant teeth-gnashing was annoying at first, then aggrevating, then coma-inducing. He's better in comedic moments.

"YOUNG MASTER." So Sun, as Sky's bodyguard, is at school posing as Sky's cousin. Fine. So why does Sun call Sky "Young Master" in front of all the other schoolkids? And not one of them questions it?? Yeah right... we totally believe that.

SKY'S DAD. A member of the Mafia, and yet we're supposed to think of Sky's dad as the "good guy." Umm... he's a murderer, folks. But hey, we like him! Next...

FINAL EPISODE. Six years apart? Sure, it could happen, but how did the directors expect the characters to pull off the maturity factor? Two or three years would have been reasonable. And Sky is now working for his dad... as a gangster? His father must be so proud.

I'm giving it a 7.0, mainly because there were some good moments interspersed throughout the craziness.
