this series will always hold such a special spot in my heart. i remember watching it for the first time, and i fell in love with seojoon and jiwoo. they are polar opposites, and i loved it.seojoon was extroverted and carefree, while jiwoo was introverted and particular. this is an enemies-to-lovers trope, which is one of my favorites.
i cant even count how many times i’ve rewatched it. it’s such a cute and heartwarming series. i love the plot so much, and i love the characters. not even just the main couple, but also the manager and ceo, i love them all so dearly.
woohyeon and kangmin have amazing chemistry. i could never get tired or bored of watching them. no matter how many times i rewatch this series, i still love it so much.
i liked the pacing. it wasn’t too fast, and it wasn’t too slow. whenever i rewatch this series, i usually watch the movie. the movie version makes the pacing feel more normal for some reason.
the director did a great job with this series. the ost is amazing too. “to my star” ost is by far the best bl ost i’ve ever heard, and i’m not being biased. i can feel all of the emotions. the love, the longing. and not to mention, it just reminds me of the series and seojoon and jinwoo, which makes my heart ache even more. it’s a very emotional ost.
i especially loved how jiwoo has gradually warmed up to seojoon. cold tsundere characters turning into sweet affectionate kind are always my favorite. i love him so dearly.
this is such an amazing series. i will always love it so much. this really set the standard for me.

Top 5
I absolutely loved this Korean bl, and food is involved with the male lead on which he is a cook! and the other is a celebrity. and that’s what makes it really interesting, it was a really interesting to watch and got you hooked immediately! And the cook in the show was not interested in the main which made it take longer in the show because he felt that their relationship was wrong but in the end he finally accepted his feelings for him :)I would definitely recommend this to new bl watchers!

They're my star.
I love them. Ji Woo and Seo Joon are my new comfort couple. They're cute, wholesome and heartwarming. They'd do anything for each other and I'm certain of that, I mean we're talking about Seo Joon who wanted to open a restaurant just for his chef and Ji Woo who was ready to loose Seo Joon just for him to not pay for the debts and wanted to solve the problem by himself. The story is simple but I think that's it's charm, there's no big plot for you to focus on, just two boys falling in love with each other and developing. I just wish we saw them being more lovey dovey.Was this review helpful to you?
Adorable but too short
This series/movie is really cute. It doesn’t give us enough time with our main characters. I never feel that invested with what’s going on. It doesn’t get good until the last 3-4 episodes, because again each one is far too short. Because of the short runtime characters are underdeveloped an the romance doesn't have much time to cook (no pun intended). There is a darkside to one of the main characters that is alluded to, but I would have liked to see more. In the end this is a nice comfort watch, but nothing that makes it really stand out.Was this review helpful to you?
oh how I adore you tms
To My Star oh how I adore you.TMS is one of those stories that quietly gets under your skin and stays there.
It’s soft, it’s messy, and it’s painfully human in the best way. What I love most is how the characters feel real not just romantic leads in a drama, but actual people with flaws, fears, and histories that shape how they love.
Seo Joon and Ji Woo are total opposites, and yes, the angst can hit hard (very hard I infact cried), but it means something. Every misunderstanding, every moment of distance, every inch they take toward one another it all feels earned.
Their connection isn’t loud or dramatic just for show; it’s tender, awkward, and genuine and REAL.
You end up rooting for them not because they’re perfect, but because they’re trying.
The beauty of this story is that it never asks you to pick a side.
You just understand them.
Even when it hurts, you’re still loving them.
And that’s the magic between why I love their dynamic so much.
I’d give this 10 stars because it’s not just a BL romance it’s a story about finding someone who sees you exactly as you are, mistakes and all, and learning how to stay. The characters are lovable because they’re imperfect, and the journey they take feels like a quiet miracle.
one of my favourites highly recommend to anyone who’s starting on their bl drama journey! :)

Total Standout
To My Star is a rare gem in the world of BL dramas. It’s a series that manages to be both heartwarming and heartbreaking, all wrapped up in a visually stunning package.Season one is a delightful rom-com that introduces us to the charming and complicated world of Kang Seo Joon and Han Ji Woo. Their chemistry is off the charts, and the supporting cast is a perfect complement to the main story. The show's simplicity is its strength; it focuses on character development and relationships rather than convoluted plotlines.
The cinematography is absolutely gorgeous, and the soundtrack is a perfect match. It’s rare to find a drama that looks this good and sounds this great.
Season two takes a darker turn, exploring the complexities of relationships and the challenges of maintaining a long-term partnership. It’s a bold move that pays off, delivering a raw and emotional story that will stay with you long after the credits roll. The performances in this season are even more impressive, with the actors showcasing their range and depth.
While there are a few minor issues, like some slightly awkward English lines, they don't detract from the overall enjoyment of the series.
To My Star is a must-watch for fans of BL dramas, romantic comedies, and well-crafted storytelling. It’s a series that will make you laugh, cry, and everything in between.
If you’re looking for a show that will stay with you long after the final episode, look no further. To My Star is a true standout.

Toucher les étoiles avec simplicité et authenticité…
Il existe des dramas qui, comme un plaid douillet, nous enveloppent de chaleur et de douceur. Pour moi, To My Star est l'un d'eux.Il ne s'agit pas d'une comédie romantique rocambolesque. Au contraire, c'est une histoire où la simplicité et le réalisme sont les maîtres-mots. Prenez deux personnes opposées, mettez-les ensemble dans une colocation forcée et attendez de voir le résultat. Après tout, les opposés s'attirent.
Kang Seo Joon (Son Woo Hyun) est un acteur populaire, extraverti et chaleureux. Son charme et sa popularité cachent une certaine vulnérabilité, révélée par cet événement. Han Ji Woo (Kim Kang Min) est un cuisinier discret et introverti à la langue acérée qui refuse de danser sur l'air d'un autre. Son sarcasme et son indépendance masquent une profonde sensibilité et un désir d'être compris.
Une tension palpable s'installe entre eux, alimentée par leurs différences et leurs regards insistants et quelques joutes verbales. Ce sont des sentiments discrets qui se développent sur le temps entre deux échanges. Ils ne tombent pas amoureux au premier regard, ils ne sont pas parfaits non plus, et c'est toute la réussite des personnages. Ce sont des adultes confrontés à leurs propres doutes et leurs propres aspirations, comme chacun d'entre nous. Deux adultes ordinaires qui n'auraient pas dû se rencontrer, et en fin de compte…
La simplicité du scénario évite les intrigues secondaires inutilement dramatiques. Quelques-unes sont là, mais elles sont enrichissent les personnages. Cela démontre une nouvelle fois qu'une histoire correctement écrite fonctionne sans une multitude d'intrigues, de malentendus et de trahisons dramatiques. À la place, Park Young nous offre un scénario tendre, doux et réconfortant. La réalisation de Hwang Da Seul donne vie à cette romance avec de beaux plans et une palette de couleurs ravissante. La bande-son, composée de mélodies douces et acoustiques, contribue à l'ambiance intimiste du drama.
En bref, To My Star est l'un de mes KBL préférés (et BL favoris). Grâce à sa simplicité et sa construction, il se démarque par son ambiance légère, ses émotions vibrantes, sa discrète et jolie bande-son, ainsi que ses personnages ordinaires.

Doce e amarga na medida certa
Não há muita coisa a ser dita sobre essa história. BL's coreanos geralmente só pecam pelo pouco tempo de tela, mas nesse caso em específico, isso não foi um problema tão grande. Se tivesse mais tempo seria incrível, mas como a série não tinha subtramas, ou melhor, elas existem, mas de modo que não tomem mais espaço que o necessário, e além disso, elas servem como uma teia onde todos acabam se conectando de alguma forma, fazendo sentido para todos, inclusive para nós telespectadores, que terminamos a série com todas as dúvidas esclarecidas. Apesar delas, a trama se concentrou praticamente apenas no casal principal, o pouco tempo de tela não interferiu tanto, tivemos um roteiro incrível e bem dirigido.Outro ponto assertivo foi a escolha dos atores, cada ator e atriz se encaixa perfeitamente em seu personagem, e o elenco tem muita química entre si, sem falar no casal principal, que apesar do clichê do introvertido e do sociável, tiveram um desenvolvimento coerente e mostraram uma bela química em suas interações.
Além disso tudo, os fatores técnicos também são impecáveis, a continuidade das cenas é bem feita, a ost é um escândalo de linda, a filmografia e fotografia são maravilhosas, a atuação de todos é excelente e entrou na minha lista de queridinhos. É o tipo de série que eu veria mil vezes e não cansaria. Minha única crítica é contra a segunda temporada, que foi um fiasco, mas essa resenha eu faço depois.

Une romance toute mignonne
J'ai commencé ce petit drama sans lire le synopsis. Pourquoi ? Car il s'agit d'une production BL de Viki et que de toute façon quel que soit le synopsis je l'aurai regardé... (Oui, moi et le BL toute une histoire =D) C'est donc dans l'inconnu que je me lance en commençant le premier épisode.Si l'histoire est assez classique au final avec une cohabitation forcée entre deux protagonistes qui finissent par tomber amoureux, (Cela fait d'ailleurs un peu penser au drama "Full House" avec une star qui finit par cohabiter avec l'ancienne propriétaire de la maison...) malgré le schéma déjà connu, on apprécie de suivre cette histoire et de découvrir comment les protagonistes finiront ensemble.
Le développement des sentiments m'a cependant laissée un peu perplexe (Je m'explique : Au début, on voit clairement que Han Ji-Woo ne supporte pas Kang Seo-Joon mais que ce dernier loin de s'en soucier va pousser Ji-Woo à avoir de plus en plus d'interaction avec lui. On nous montre un changement assez soudain suite à l'incident de la pierre dans la vitre qui terrifie Seo-Joon et fini par attendrir Ji-Woo. Ensuite, on nous montre l'apparition assez subitement de sentiments amoureux du côté de Seo-Joon... Alors oui, il passait son temps à le coller mais j'ai eu du mal à voir des sentiments de cette nature avant la scène du baiser... Ou c'est moi qui ai un problème x'D)
Malgré les sentiments que j'ai vu sortir un peu de nulle part (Et oui, toujours le même problème avec ce type de format ^^), j'ai apprécié l'évolution des deux protagonistes et il faut dire qu'ils sont tellement mignon ensemble =D.

Une belle romance toute choupinou
Ah la la ! Ca paie pas de mine au début, et puis on se prend d'affection pour les personnages, leurs fêlures, leur naturel et la complémentarité de leurs caractères.C'est une romance toute douce et émouvante entre deux hommes opposés en tout, qui vont devoir cohabiter malgré les franches réticences de l'un, et les casseroles que l'autre traîne derrière lui (le premier est un cuisinier asocial, le deuxième est une célébrité). L'intrigue est centrée sur l'évolution de leur couple dans un contexte un peu compliqué pour la célébrité au coeur d'un scandale. Du coup l'histoire évite d'aller dans tous les sens, de sorte que même si les 9 épisodes ne durent en moyenne qu'une quinzaine de minutes chacun, on en sort avec l'impression que les choses sont bien ficelées et sans manque particulier.
Les deux acteurs sont convaincants, émouvants, la fin toute tendre m'a serrée le coeur et je dirais que c'est plutôt rare chez moi lorsque c'est une fin heureuse (bon d'habitude je suis contente et puis voilà). Vraiment, je ne pensais rien de particulier en commençant le visionnage, je me disais juste "ça m'occupera en attendant la suite de We Best Love", et puis crac, je ressors des deux derniers épisodes avec l'impression étrange d'avoir visionné un petit drama sans prétention au départ, et qui au final nous a offert un moment précieux.
Vu le faible budget (et le peu d'acteurs mobilisés), ils ont vraiment fait du bon boulot. Fait à noter, c'est une romance entre adultes ce qui prouve, après les récentes sorties venues de Corée, que ce pays sait se diversifier en matière de BL et semble vraiment, vraiment prometteur quand on voit la qualité produite. Et qui s'améliore au fil des sorties. Il faut désormais compter avec eux, c'est un fait.
Enfin, la bande-son est très agréable, moderne et belle.
Je conseille cette belle romance BL à 100%.
