I wonder if the fan base is big enough to make them do a s3. I'm madly in love with those two guys chemistry. Show us how Ji Woo is a supportive and strong boyfriend for once! But since they degraded his character too much at this point, I have no hopes left. If 10 episodes weren't enough to make him grow up, then what can we expect of a s3?

I wish I wouldn't know the first series either. This one has better acting, better production and the characters are slightly better written too.

It's just a shame that the story is basically the same. So no surprises for me!

Am I the only one who feels like dropping this?
It's done very well, much better than I expected. But the plot is not to my liking. I wasn't bothered by it watching the first series, because I'm open for every kind of story, but I just don't see how I can watch this AGAIN. We all know where this is going anyways.
The chemistry is great, yes, the acting top-notch, but ... sigh.

I know. But he is a fictional character after all. It sounded a bit sarcastic, and like he was real human being. That was just cute.

I don't blame the actor. Don't know the other work of Kim Kang Min, but throughout the series I wondered many times how he can manage playing that character. They didn't give him anything to work with! In s1 Ji Woo was much more complex and interesting. In s2 they reduced him to his depressed self.

He behaved like a strong man when hurting Seo Joon, so he should have behaved like one when apologizing too.

Haha. So true! The writer was very smart in giving us all those fluffy scenes and that great kiss - didn't see that coming! It was steamy! Imagine them parting ways at the end. People would call it a waste of time.

"But of course I have to respect his choice"
That made me laugh XD

Didn't expect those kisses. I thought the chemistry completely died along the angsty ride. I felt the writer is too immersed in all that pseudo-complex drama they wouldn't give us any fluff. Maybe a final talk and some akward kiss.
Nope. I was very wrong.

There are many things you will miss the first time watching. The show looks smart, and maybe it is, but from my personal view the core problems didn't justify all that drama and complexity that was presented.

Wasn't a fan of that crying scene either. He behaved emotionally immature throughout the whole series, and at the end he cried like a baby? That infantilization was strange.

But ep 9 and 10 were really great. Didn't expect those kisses and cute scenes. Really nicely done. It felt so natural like in s1. I would add it to your daily routine XD

On a side note: All those side characters they integrated, looking back it feels like they wanted to show how Ji Woo build his own social circle. An issue seemed to be that he was all alone, Seo Joon on the other hand was surrounded by many people. Well, at this point we all know, that Ji Woo has insecuritiy issues, he felt like being a burden, he obviously was too consumed by those negative thoughts. At least now he was able to build a life outside of the relationship. Though I still wonder why he couldn't do that earlier, and what exactly was holding him back.

Well, in s1 there was great chemistry, great characters, lots of fun, some angst. It felt very innocent and was charming. It really was shining bright like a star.

Tms2 lost it's innocence, and they messed up the Ji Woo character. But well, still enjoyable.

And then Seo Joon: "Are you threatening me?"
Ji Woo: "I'm begging you."
That was strong, really. Got me the chills.

Also, Seo Joon despite trying so hard, he always kept his pride. Maybe that one time after they slept together, he was almost on his knees, but he got up again. It's a fascinating character.

I sometimes think I'm too critical. I only watch the best of the best Korean Drama. I'm very picky. But there are a lot mediocre dramas out there full of cliches. I'm especially not fond of most of their (hetero) romance dramas with young actors.

I mean, To My Star isn't a bad show compared to what's out there, BL or not.

Me being critical doesn't mean I hate a series.
The end was better than I expected, though. It was pretty uplifting after all that drama. I wish the guys the best. Love both actors 💕

How can I possibly explain it to you when Ji Woo the man himself said:
"Who cares? I don't remember."

Truer words were never spoken.
XD

I liked that line from Ji Woo. So at least he is self-aware that he can't do what Seo Joon did. I guess we have to appreciate the honesty?
But yeah, very strange concept from the writer regarding a working relationship. I think in real life sooner or later this would end badly. Or maybe we are supposed to believe that those two complement each other? Seo Joon is charming and hard working. He doesn't mind giving his all even though he gets little in return? So they are a match made in heaven? Two puzzle pieces that just fit together, lol. I don't know.

I was glued to the screen the whole time from ep 1 to ep 10. So they did something right. I thought it was a very interesting series, worth my time for sure.

The end saved this series. I'm still not sold on the reason for the break-up and why all of this drama and pain was needed, but I must say they tried to tie everything together at the end. The end didn't feel rushed. Their reconcilation did. But they gave us a lot of fluff and a glimpse into a brighter future. They really tried to show us that this time it will work between those two.
I'm also glad they gave those two guys the opportunity to show us their chemistry. Because of all the angst I honestly felt the chemistry was gone, and wasn't expecting anything anymore.
