A Beautiful, Mature Chinese BL with Stunning Cinematography

I just finished Moon and Dust and I have to say, I really enjoyed it. Even though each episode was only around 15 minutes long, I was never bored—every moment felt engaging. The cast is absolutely stunning, and the music and cinematography were on point. 🎶📸 The acting was impressive, and Chinese BL really hits differently; there’s a level of maturity and subtlety to it that I appreciate. No cringey sound effects, just genuine emotion.

I’m a big fan of the stepbrother trope, and this series nails it! The chemistry between the leads is electric, and I loved the dynamic between them. 🔥 It's also refreshing to see a Chinese BL that isn't censored.

It's a shame that BL is still restricted in China, because if it were fully legalized, I truly believe the genre could explode in popularity, especially with past hits like Addicted and The Untamed. I’m hoping that one day China will embrace the potential of this genre fully. 🤞

My only downside is the length—if the episodes were longer, this would be a perfect score. Plus, the ending felt a bit like a cliffhanger, so I’m hoping for a special episode or a continuation. Fingers crossed! 🤞
