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?

Opposites Attract Romance
The story starts with a famous K-drama actor named Kang Seojoon who needs to rehabilitate his reputation because of untrue violence allegations. He has to live in an apartment with an introvert named Han Jinwoo who refuses to communicate with him. Jinwoo owns a restaurant that Seojoon is interested in. I don’t want to spoil anymore, so I’m just going to say what I disliked and what I liked. I personally really liked the chemistry between the two actors, and even enjoyed watching the BTS. Also the kissing scenes spared no expense. The only “fish kiss” was when they were drunk and the director definitely thought of that. The only flaw about this series is that the second one is actually better. But otherwise, 10/10 BL.Was this review helpful to you?

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.

You should watch this series
It's been 5 days since I had finish watching this but I still cannot move on from this. This is so good and I'm literally begging for them to make a 2nd season for this. I think this is the best k-bl series I have watched. I like every scene especially the last scene in ep.8!! You should watch it to find out why I like that scene a lot.#ToMyStar #MustWatch

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.

Buena sensación
Corto, sincero y bonito.Con tres palabras defino este drama, que si tienes poco tiempo y pocas ganas de ver algo largo, pues, es ideal. No se porque, pero me imaginaba la serie totalmente diferente y no me esperaba la historia que cuenta. Me sorprendió positivamente.
Los personajes tienen personalidades interesantes. Debido a la duración, no se profundiza mucho en sus vidas personales familiares, las cuales se dejan entrever. Pero, no lo necesita, de hecho, se agradece. La serie se centra en contar la historia actual y gracias a que no da tiempo a más, tampoco da tiempo a sufrir demasiado.
Para pasar un rato agradable sin pensar demasiado.

Toucher les étoiles (mon ultime coup de cœur de 2021)
Ce drama est mon nid douillet, mon petit moment de réconfort lors d'une nuit d'insomnie. Il ne s'agit pas d'une comédie romantique rocambolesque, en réalité, c'est tout le contraire. La simplicité et le réalisme sont les maîtres-mots de ce drame qui n'a rien d'original, et c'est peut-être pour ça qu'il me plaît tant.Prenez deux personnes opposées, mettez-les ensemble dans une colocation forcée et attendez de voir ce qui va se produire. On aime dire que les opposés s'attirent, cela ne pouvait pas mieux tomber entre Seo Joon (Son Woo Hyun) et Ji Woo (Kim Kang Min).
Le premier est un acteur populaire, extraverti et chaleureux en pleine controverse suite à une altercation dans un petit restaurant. Le second est un cuisinier discret et introverti à la langue acérée qui ne semble jamais vouloir danser sur le même air qu'un autre. Les étincelles jaillissent rapidement, créant une alchimie incroyable avec son lot d'émotions. 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 non plus parfaits et c'est toute la réussite des personnages.
Le scénario est simple, tandis qu'il épargne les intrigues secondaires inutiles dramatiques. Cela démontre, encore une fois, qu'une histoire correctement écrite avec une ligne claire fonctionne merveilleusement sans une multitude d'intrigues et son lot de crises de larmes et trahisons inexpliquées. À la place, Park Young livre un scénario tendre, mignon et réconfortant. La réalisation de Hwang Da Seul fait vivre cette histoire avec de beaux plans larges, parfois rapprochés et aux couleurs ravissantes.
En bref, To My Star est l'un de mes BL préférés. Grâce à sa simplicité et sa construction, ce drama se démarque avec son ambiance légère, ses émotions vibrantes et ses personnages suffisamment développés.

É simples, mas não é ruim
To My Star começa bem quietinho, meio tímido, quase sem fazer barulho, e quando você vê, já tá envolvida. Não é uma história cheia de plot twist ou grandes declarações de amor, mas tem um jeito calmo e sincero que funciona bem demais se você estiver no clima de algo mais contido.O enredo é simples: Seo Joon é um ator meio em baixa, escandaloso do jeitinho dele, que vai parar na casa do Ji Woo, um chef super reservado e sistemático. Os dois são o total oposto e, claro, isso vira faísca. Mas aqui não tem gritaria nem cena dramática exagerada. Tudo vai acontecendo no silêncio, nos olhares longos, no desconforto de dois caras que claramente estão se sentindo mexidos e não sabem muito bem o que fazer com isso.
No começo parece que não vai sair nada dali, mas aí as coisas começam a se encaixar e o relacionamento cresce daquele jeitinho lento e gostoso. Não é um romance pra arrancar suspiros toda hora, mas tem um carinho que fica, e tem beijo sim, do jeitinho coreano: cuidadoso e contido.
A vibe da série é toda clean, com uma fotografia bonita e um clima meio melancólico que combina com os personagens. Às vezes até parece que nada tá acontecendo, mas quando você percebe, tá ali torcendo pelos dois, querendo que o Ji Woo pare de fugir e que o Seo Joon seja mais do que só o cara tagarela.
Não é uma série que vai agradar quem procura BL com fogo no parquinho ou cenas super físicas. Mas se você curte um romance mais emocional, com dois caras se conhecendo no detalhe, na paciência, e num tom mais pé no chão, To My Star entrega bonitinho. É uma história simples, mas cheia de sentimento. E às vezes, é só disso que a gente precisa.

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.
