Here's my theory on BDSM scenes: P likes to write. Dream of being a published writer. He has an open and agile…
I assume that the dream, if this is true, is P.'s. Manu takes him to the door of his room, says goodbye, and P speaks on the phone with the editor who hopes and encourages him for the novel. And then even change the colors of the room to give way to that scene. By the way, artistically well done scene.
Here's my theory on BDSM scenes: P likes to write. Dream of being a published writer. He has an open and agile mind. On the other hand, he has been feverish or drunk. These final “disturbing” scenes are surely part of his literary fantasy or a product of these nights of bad sleep. We know that Manu is sensitive and ethical, to use two adjectives (those who practice BDSM can also be sensitive and ethical, it is my opinion). Manu has had the opportunity to “take advantage” of P while he has been sick or drunk and behaves like a gentleman incapable of bothering or bothering the young man. We see how he undresses him and goes over his entire body with a wet towel without even looking at his naked torso, despite being attracted to him. And then Manu's words about dead people and taking P to hell, etc. This doesn't fit the character or the story. Of course, schizophrenics abound everywhere, but I don't think that's the case. I suppose there is an explanation for this scene in the final episode.
what was that little S and M scene about? Felt odd in this story.

What a beautiful series! These 8 episodes could be a unitary series. And it would have ended in a great way, in style. However, we know well that it does not end here. 'Perfect 10 Liners' has been able to intelligently present, while we enjoyed the first story, the characters of the two remaining stories, to incorporate them into a general story that we already know: the romantic, friendly and comradely relationship of the members of the exclusive circle of "Perfect 10 Liners", the group of extraordinary students from various academic years at the Faculty of Engineering of a Thai university.
The most romantic scene of the series so far: Arm crying uncontrollably for having lost the Engineering student identification jacket given to him by Arc, and Arc consoling him. There is no kiss in the scene, a look of desire, a suggestive touch of the hand... it is not necessary. Force and Book know how to perfectly, effortlessly reflect the love between two characters.
Those were the scars inflicted upon him when he was in captivity.
Saludos, Diego Of course, the scars on his body can also be seen. Sun has not had treatment to eliminate them, I don't think he would be interested in doing so. There are two moments: when Sun takes off his shirt before going to sleep and covers Junior with it. There you can see the scars and a red color, but not only on his back, but in other parts of his body. This reddish tone can also be seen on Junior's face. Maybe it's coming from the light of the nearby campfire. The scar area has already healed a long time ago, so this reddish tone is ruled out from still being present due to mistreatment in captivity. In the second moment, Sun's back is observed again when he sits up after waking up. Sun's are old keloid scars, the result of an aggressive healing process and excessive tissue production. As can be seen, Sun's are characterized by a raised, thick and inflamed appearance. It is at this last moment that you can clearly see, in addition to the scars, traces of dirt and the marks left by the rock on his back due to it being supported by the rock.
Hello. Around minute 31.43 Sun wakes up, stands up and shows his back while he attends and settles Junior. At that moment you can clearly see the scars and the redness of the skin from lying on the stone. Red tone that he didn't have when he took off his shirt. This is at least what I can appreciate.
Sun gets up from the rock where, leaning on it, he has spent the entire night, without a shirt, as he has protected Junior from the night's cold with it, and his back shows the marks left by the rock on his body. What genius!
Thank you for this review - I liked the movie for exactly the same reasons. May I recommend to you the Filipino…
Hello, thank you for your words. I haven't seen the Filipino short film "Hola Pogi!", by Zian Christian Lirazan and Andrei Boniba. I'll try to see it. If you know where it is published and can download or view it directly. I like Filipino audiovisuals, but many of them disappoint me due to their poor direction, script, and acting. Even so, I insist, because others have surprised me.
Hello. Even an "error" in a publication in a printed medium could be solved, in other editions, if the author…
The theme of destiny in the review, something that I do not believe in (by the way, I am an atheist and I do not believe in the concept of also called fatum, fate or fate) by which a person believes that events or actions are determined by a supernatural power or superior plan that guides human life and that of any being to an unchosen end, which is why it would be the antonym of free will. In summary on this aspect, I firmly believe in the process of transformation and self-emancipation in which individuals take the production of their lives into their hands. Returning to the series: destiny is something that film and television will not fail to address. I also play with the expectations of the viewer-reader by addressing the “pontification” of the “nonsense of a thousand lives.” But I caution both, after putting them on the premise of the series: “However, will this be a story about destiny? Will it be about reincarnation or time travel? Will the viewer be able to discover how the characters will live the more than a thousand lives indicated in the synopsis? Will the plot develop according to the initial premise?".
Writing reviews before a series concludes is a risky proposition. Especially if you misplace trust in the accuracy…
Hello. Even an "error" in a publication in a printed medium could be solved, in other editions, if the author made the "slip" of "writing reviews before a series concludes." Luckily, digital platforms, such as MDL, solve with the snap of a finger this "error" with the possibility and ease they provide of allowing reviews to be constantly updated, even modifying it in a good proportion. This is an innovative series in which the creators apparently play with the audience by offering false clues about the "accuracy of a synopsis." In the series at no time has anything related to the topic of "nonsense about destiny throughout a thousand lives" been raised until now. This has only been stated in the synopsis. What makes you think there isn't enough praise for the artists in the review? Any astute reader would find true praise when I say: "But yes: always with the presence of the two stars who dress luxuriously and touch the sky with their performances (…) The series is perfect to give Mick and Top the opportunity to show all facets of their acting skills, something they achieve superbly (...) The main reason why this series works where other romantic dramas fail is the cast (...) The protagonists are irresistibly charming, adorable, one follows them in their smallest and largest gestures with great delight. Experimental and innovative series, it seems not to care about the synopsis itself and fully immerses the audience, in episodes 6 and 7 (even at the end of 5) in metacinema, something little or never seen in a Thai BL. The director is not only demonstrating his fertile imagination, but also his knowledge of cinema from his position as a university professor and director of the Film and Creative Media Arts program at the Faculty of Communication Arts (International Programme) in Bangkok. It's almost time for the series to close. We will surely have new surprises.
Thank you for your words. I will continue watching the series to see if it continues to work for me. Silly, but I like it to rest after a day of hard work. Thanks again.
Thank you for your words. I will try to review the following episodes, but I'm afraid the review is too long. MDL only allows a set number of characters per review and I'm pretty stretched thin. Likewise, a very long review can discourage reading, unless it is written in a way that captivates the reader. I'll try to condense it all into a review. Thanks again.
“ To My Star” is a bl, not LGBTQ+ .. it’s different! Once again Da Seul is overhyped!! Nothing spectacular…
Season 1 of 'To My Star' ranked first overall in the daily section of China's Weibo and Japan's Rakuten TV, achieving good results in overseas markets such as China and Japan. After that, 'To My Star 2' was the first BL series released in Korea after being released on television, in addition to the ratings, it ranked second in the overall category on Japan's Rakuten TV monthly chart and first undisputed place in the Korean drama category, which generated a global syndrome. The screening schedule for 'Break the Curse of Taekwondo' was published on the Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival website on June 18, to generate expectations, as the public's interest was known.

On the one hand, LGBTQ + films and series include BL, Yaoi, Yuri, GL and other additional ones about love between people who may be of the same sex or some variation. On the other hand, in the review, I use the acronym LGBT+, if I remember correctly, on three occasions, and always in the context of THEMATICA, not film genre. Therefore, calling 'To My Star' as LGBTQ+ is, in my view, very correct in both senses. LGBT+ themed works are those that tell stories of members of the group made up of lesbians, gays, transgenders, transsexuals, bisexuals, intersex, queer and the rest of the identities and orientations included in the +, which tells us that the group is still constantly growth. And these are represented in 'To My Star'. Regarding your opinion of the director and screenwriter, I do not agree with you. Her work speaks for itself: In 2023, director Hwang Da-seul attracted global attention when 'Where Your Eyes Stay', considered Korea's first BL web drama, was screened for the first time in the BL genre category on the VPB (Venice Production Bridge Screening) of the prestigious Venice International Film Festival, one of the three most important film festivals in the world.
On X's face there is not only love, desire and passion. There is also a request, a plea: I can continue or not. How delicately he treated him. If he had known what the future held for him... The best story of the three so far.
