BEGGING FOR SEASON 2
Probably one of my absolute favourite series ever! I’m almost obsessed with the couple! The characters are so lovable (minus the antagonists ofc).I’ve watched it about 3 times now and the quality? stays the same- still as great as the first time- but with me looking for ‘crumbs’ when it comes to the couple’s scenes. The humour, the acting, the wardrobe/outfits, the music… oh my god, I LOVE it.

Pleaseeee give us Season 2
This is such a masterpiece bl. The thing I loved the most is the visual storytelling. The way lighting is used adds meaning beyond the dialogue—contrasts, shadows, and brightness subtly reflect the inner worlds of the characters. You can sense who holds power, who is conflicted, and who is changing, just by how scenes are framed and lit. The acting, expressions, chemistry are all great. The pookie gangster and his nerdy bf have my whole heart. Every glance, every moment between them🤌🏻, it's the kind of chemistry u don't need words for, u can feel it in the silence, in the way they look at each other. The officers cp has such a different, intriguing kind of chemistry. The tension between them gives me butterflies. I really really really want Season 2 so much 😭🙏🏻.Was this review helpful to you?
So, please. Can we get Season 2? ?
I have a complete denial when it comes to watching dubbed Chinese series. 😂 And yet, somehow, Sammy’s Children’s Day became an exception.Not only did I finish it… I actually wanted MORE. 😭
And the funny thing? It’s Cantonese! I still went for it, and honestly, I’m glad I did.
I really enjoyed the story. The way it explored the Hong Kong gang setting, especially the way they lure in this nerdy boy, was so interesting. But what really got me was the slow-burn emotion. It creeps up on you quietly, then suddenly you realize you’re completely invested. The tension was chilling, yet somehow soothing at the same time — the kind that just stays under your skin.
The production also deserves praise. Good budget, good direction, and a well-written script. Everything felt thoughtfully put together, and the story knew how to build its atmosphere without rushing things.
My only complaint?
IT FELT TOO SHORT. 😭
Just when I was getting comfortable and fully invested, it was already over. I was left sitting there thinking, “Wait… that’s it?! What happens next?!”
So, please. Can we get Season 2? 🙏
Because for me, this was genuinely good. It surprised me, pulled me in, and left me wanting more — which is probably the biggest compliment I can give a series I never expected to finish in the first place.
Good story. Good direction. Good production. Slow-burn emotions. And definitely too short.
Now give us Season 2, or else. 😤😂

The chemistry, the emotions, the cinematography, the soundtrack, the tiny details in every scene… EVERYTHING felt so real and full of love. I laughed, cried, screamed, paused scenes just to breathe, and then replayed them again because I was too obsessed to move on 😭
This drama became my forever favorite. Not just a show, but an experience. The production team deserves endless praise because you can FEEL how much care and passion was poured into every episode. I genuinely want to meet the director one day just to personally say thank you for creating something this beautiful. And the main leads???? Oh my god. Their acting, their expressions, their connection… absolutely unforgettable. They made me believe every single emotion.
I’m so emotionally attached to these characters that finishing the season felt like losing a part of myself 😭 And now I’m sitting here desperately waiting for Season 2 because I genuinely cannot let them go yet.
Sammy’s Children Day is not just my favorite BL drama anymore — it’s THE standard. The comfort, the pain, the love, the longing… no other drama has hit me this hard.
Forever obsessed. Forever waiting. Forever in love. 🖤

Hong Kong I was not familiar with ur game!
I created this account just to show some love to my favorite BL so far. I'm extremely new to BL world but I don't finish series that I don't vibe with. In a few weeks I've checked out so many. Anyways in this series, both the lead Characters are equally so handsome, so cute, so adorable like hello how is that even possible while representing completely different background. Love the story, the setting, the cinematography, the pace. That love situation was so refreshing for me & didn't expect to see a major twist executed so beautifully. Anyone giving bad review to this series pls give me 3 series better than this bcuz I'm genuinely failing to find it anywhere. I want to rewatch it already bc there is severe scarcity of bl well made like this. I beg them to release season 2 pls hear my cry.Was this review helpful to you?
He chengxi excellent profomance and is his co actors in the series [ Sammy's children's day ]
I honestly did not expect Sammy’s Children’s Day to affect me this deeply, but this drama completely exceeded every expectation I had. From the first episode to the last, everything about it felt emotional, cinematic, and unforgettable.What makes this drama so special is that it is not just another romance story. It feels like an emotional journey set inside a dangerous and broken world. The 1980s Hong Kong atmosphere, the gang setting, the emotional tension, the loyalty, and the sacrifice all come together beautifully. Every episode carried emotional weight and felt meaningful.
The chemistry between He Changxi and He Yanchao is honestly one of the strongest chemistries I have seen in a BL drama. Their acting felt incredibly natural, and many scenes did not even need dialogue because their expressions and body language already said everything. The emotional connection between them felt genuine, deep, and powerful.
One of my favorite things was how naturally the relationship developed. Nothing felt rushed. You could slowly feel the trust growing between them through small moments — the silent protection, the worried looks, the jealousy, the vulnerability, and the quiet care they showed each other. Watching them slowly become each other’s safe place in such a cruel world made the emotional scenes hit even harder.
He Changxi gave such a calm and emotionally layered performance. He made his character feel gentle, intelligent, and quietly strong at the same time. Every expression felt meaningful, even in silence, and you could feel the emotions underneath every scene.
He Yanchao was incredible as well. He balanced danger and softness perfectly, making his character unforgettable. His protective nature, emotional vulnerability, and deep attachment to Chu San made many scenes genuinely heartbreaking because his emotions felt so real.
The cinematography also deserves huge praise. The neon lights, rainy streets, dark alleyways, and vintage Hong Kong atmosphere created such an immersive world. Every frame felt carefully crafted and emotionally meaningful, making the drama feel far more cinematic than a typical series.
What I loved most is how emotionally mature the story feels. The romance is not only about attraction — it is about trust, healing, survival, loyalty, and finding comfort in another person while living in darkness. That is what makes the relationship feel so much deeper and more memorable.
The soundtrack, storytelling, pacing, and emotional atmosphere blended together perfectly. There were so many scenes that stayed in my mind long after I finished the episodes because the emotions felt so genuine.
What truly made this drama unforgettable for me is how human the characters felt. Both characters carry loneliness, fear, pain, and emotional scars, but through each other they slowly begin to heal. Watching that journey felt beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time.
Sammy’s Children’s Day is emotional, intense, beautifully acted, visually stunning, and deeply memorable. The actors gave incredible performances, and their chemistry created something truly special.
This is not just a drama you watch and forget. It is one of those stories that stays with you long after it ends.

The combination of action, comedy, romance and crime story works on so many levels. The 2 MLs are brimming with chemistry. I honestly can't see how this ends well with the main ML being a gang leader, but I definitely want to experience the full ride. I'll continue the review as the movie progresses so ignore whatever I put next just to make the word quota xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxcxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxcccxcccxc Was this review helpful to you?

I have to see the premiere of season 2 to believe that this series will have a season 2
DisclaimerWhat I am writing here are my views and thoughts about this series. Some of you may not like it. That does not give you the right to try to come at me with your opinions on why this series should get a higher or lower score and why it is better/worse than I think it is. You have your own opinions, and I have mine. Kindly respect that. Please also note that there will be spoilers in this review from the series – IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW ABOUT SPOILERS, THEN DON'T READ THIS REVIEW!!!
I fell in love with getting to know the world of He Chu San and Xia Liu Yi. Their relationship didn't start off as your typical love story, as Xia Liu Yi saw He Chu San as his underling. But as time progressed, so did their relationship. It was truly a slow burn, and I got truly wrapped up in this series even down to the last episode. The actors did a wonderful job in bringing these characters alive to the screen for us viewers. I will also say that I wasn't expecting much, so I am really surprised with the outcome.
Now, while this series was entertaining, it has left us wanting more. The ending is not truly satisfying, as the main couple are not fully together as yet. Also, the secondary couple kind of left us wanting more, as it seems that their storyline needs to be dealt with, as it has been left unfinished. Now, here's the thing – there are talks about a second season. But I have become sceptical of this as I have suffered many, many burns of promises of second seasons that do not come true (The On1y One is the most recent one that is coming to my mind). As such, I have to see the premiere of season 2 to believe that we will get a season 2 and that's why I am giving this series an 8.

Slow burn. Chemistry. Questions. Open ended
If rewatch, only the last 2 ep.The build up, the focus, the people . The chemistry. The wanting each other. The desperate to not lose the other
Could be unpopular opinion but i feel like the police was a bit redundant . The 2nd lead couple other than a 1st night that was calculated approach for the high position cop to do revenge. There was only tension and blackmail and schemes.
They also destroy the happy moment at the end.
Slow burn
Genuine between the 1st lead pair.
Went thru alot and both ML had a deep history as to why they behave certain way.
Emotions high at fear in losing a loved one.
Reunited and happy tears.
Seperated again for a setup and frame.
Watch but basically many questions.
The only reasons i liked it :
*chusan and jiayi finally got the happiness and was honest with each other although it was fear of losing the other so seize the chance
*the brotherhood amongst liuyi gang really shows how good the leaders are
*both were honest at the end.
*liuyi understood how impt chusan is , more than the hall .chips n breakfast stuff shohld b okay
Why i dont like [cause it reduces the 2 ML time and interaction]
* too much focus on gang politics
*police was useless and only cause more trouble and drama
* bribery corruption connection climbing fake lies
*the ending is open ended... the fat fang.q the dad . The maybe new mum. Liuyi reunite with chusan . Hows the gang.
* they really lost the ancesteal hall??
*hate when the good ones die like bro n sis
* the whole series liuyi is basically accused for different people murder
