Diamond in the rough,
So if i had to explain how i feel about Blue Lips in 5 words or less I would def call it "a diamond in the rough" you can tell that it didnt have the highest budget and it also has quite a few scenes where you can really tell that there was some AI usage, I am fine for now with it. FOR NOW. But if you aren't the biggest fan of usage of AI then skip this if you really cant see past it. If you can see past it i can highly recommend this show, it has two leads with fantastic chemistry. The absolute best part of this show is the relationship between Teng Mo and Wu Shi Xian. They are two broken souls who slowly heal each other, peeling back hidden wounds to find the courage to love again. I loved that the show avoided annoying misunderstandings, sure theres conflicts but misunderstandings in an endless circle wasnt what we got here. Oh what I actually really loved as well was how they used Teng Mo’s adult shop to inject genuine comedy into the plot.
On the downside, the subpar dubbing was a bit distracting at times for me, one of these moments was when Shi Xian was singing on stage. Additionally, the sister's storylines felt incredibly boring, and I constantly fought the urge to skip her scenes. However, I'm glad I stayed patient, as those scenes eventually tied into crucial emotional character moments for Teng Mo later in the series, without spoiling anything.
So, overall, despite the production flaws, the beautiful growth of the main couple makes this a highly rewarding watch. This is most def one im going to rewatch again. If not for the plot in itself, which I will, it will be for the Ice cream scene.
