Such an underrated Chinese BL. The story is simple but beautifully told, with healing, music, and a heartwarming childhood friends to lovers romance. Xing Yao's voice is absolutely stunning, and his journey of overcoming trauma is incredibly moving. Jing An is the light that patiently helps him find his way back to his dream. Their chemistry feels so natural, their kiss scenes are gentle and full of emotion, and even the intimate moments are filmed with tenderness. If you're looking for a soft, comforting BL with beautiful music and genuine romance, Blazing Him is definitely worth watching
When Qing Lang said, "I normally do not regret doing things, but my biggest regret is meeting you," those few words must have shattered Chang Yang's heart. The deepest wounds are often left by the people we love the most.
Chang Yang only wanted to protect the one he loved. Yet in trying to shield Qing Lang from pain, he made choices behind his back, never realizing that love without trust can become another kind of hurt. His heart was filled with devotion, but his actions led them further apart, as if fate kept pulling them toward separation.
I believe we only truly understand someone's worth when their presence becomes a memory. When Qing Lang no longer finds Chang Yang beside him, he will remember every quiet sacrifice, every act of care, every moment of love that once felt so ordinary. Absence has a way of revealing what the heart could not see before.
Perhaps some souls are meant to lose each other for a while so they can find each other again with clearer hearts. Love that survives distance, sorrow, and regret does not return unchanged. It returns stronger, gentler, and more certain than ever before.
We have the same thoughts, exactly what I wrote in my review! We even gave it the same rating :)
The beginning was so intense that when the comedy came in later, it felt a bit out of place to me. I think it would have worked better if the show had stuck to one tone instead of trying to balance both. Hopefully it improves after the first episode.
I also love how you included the links to where people can watch it in your review. That's really helpful!
I'm from Australia, so it wasn't available on GagaOOLala for me. I had to switch my VPN to another country to watch it on GagaOOLala.
He's definitely not a green flag. A helpful tip is to check the tags like Demon Male Lead, Manipulative Male Lead,…
This is just my opinion based on episode 1. He didn’t get angry when the soccer ball hit his expensive sports car. During the dance, he stopped everything to take care of Little Jane in front of the entire class, and he wasn’t even embarrassed. He even took off his shoes and massaged Little Jane’s injured foot to help him feel better. If that’s not the definition of a green flag, I don’t know what is.
Then at the bar, when Little Jane was being attacked by three bullies, he stepped in and rescued him.
Those are all green flag signs to me. I haven’t watched the trailer or read the novel, but based on the tags and everyone comments here, I don’t think he’ll stay a green flag for long.
True, don't get me wrong i do like university bls but most of them feel too vanilla or generic with a less catchy…
I agree. There are high school BLs that focus on teenage romance, and then there are university BLs for young adults. University BLs need a more mature approach, and this one definitely nailed it.

Yes, I watched the first episode. To me, he’s a green flag when it comes to the way he treats and protects Little Jane. That’s just my opinion, and you’re free to agree or disagree.
somebody on iqiyi comments said they hope the ml (jane patrick) isn’t a red flag and im just like …. DID WE…
He's definitely not a green flag. A helpful tip is to check the tags like Demon Male Lead, Manipulative Male Lead, and Psychological Manipulation.
Another helpful tip is to check the recommendations. It recommends Double Helix and To My Shore. Fan Xiao from To My Shore and Lu Feng from Double Helix are two of the most manipulative and red flag characters in BL, so I'm really hoping Big Jane will follow in their footsteps.
I really hope he'll be like Lu Feng from Double Helix. Watching him go from the greenest flag to a red flag and then a full black flag would be so much fun. Green flag leads are boring. I need something thrilling, intense, and exciting to watch
Finally, a university BL that feels mature instead of cringe. Tee and Heng's chemistry is absolutely insane, every glance gave me butterflies. Big Jane has such a mysterious aura that I already feel like he's hiding something much darker, and I can't wait to see his secrets unfold. Amazing OST, great cast, and after just one episode, this is already my favorite university BL of the year. DeeHupHouse never disappoints.
I am currently watching another great Chinese BL, A Winter Sun Wakes the Wind in Spring Hills' Dream, and that…
I’ve watched 5 episodes so far, and episode 6 is next on my watch list, so I’m assuming that scene will be in it. I’m currently watching 22 airing BLs at the moment, so I’m pretty busy. 🥳
I did watch the post credit scene where they were kissing outside the car with that stunning mountain scenery, but I haven’t seen the sex scene yet. Really looking forward to it.
⚠️⚠️ Don't miss the ending scenes AFTER the credits. !!! ⚠️⚠️
I am currently watching another great Chinese BL, A Winter Sun Wakes the Wind in Spring Hills' Dream, and that series has post credit scenes after every episode. Because of that, I decided to check if Deep In had them too, and it turns out it does!
One tip for anyone watching on Viki or GagaOOLala. Make sure you stay until after the credits because there are additional scenes at the end of the episodes that you definitely do not want to miss.
From now on, I am going to check all of my ongoing BLs to see if they have post credit scenes because you never know what extra moments you might be missing.
10/10! I've watched so many Chinese BLs, and this is easily the most explicit one yet, but in the best way possible. The chemistry between Ollie and Shu Yuan is absolutely insane, and every episode left me wanting more. The kissing scene in Episode 2 was absolutely incredible. The director called "cut" three different times, yet Zhang Zhun and Zhen Xin just kept kissing because they were so completely lost in the moment. Their chemistry was so intense that the director eventually had to separate their rooms. It perfectly shows just how deeply they had immersed themselves in their roles, making the scene feel even more passionate and unforgettable. I also loved the behind the scenes look at acting, which made the story feel even more unique. If you enjoy hot NC scenes, amazing chemistry, and a fresh concept, this is a must watch!
