I Came for the Bite, Stayed for the Chaos (Regretfully)
Listen. I came in for the vampires, the hot vampire mafia drama, the forbidden romance. I stayed… because I was too stunned to close the tab.
My Golden Blood had everything it needed to be THAT show: sexy immortal vampire, adorable human boy, vampire politics, high stakes. But what did they do with it? Turned it into a confused fever dream with the emotional depth of a TikTok filter.
Let’s talk chemistry— what chemistry? I’ve seen more sparks in a wet cardboard box. The two leads looked like they were trying so hard to sell the romance, but it gave "bro we're just acting, right?" Like, is this a love story or a blood donor campaign?
And the plot? BABES. What even was the plot? It was like a writer’s room full of ideas—but no one said no. One second it’s a mafia showdown, next second it’s a topless scene (PS: not that I'm complaining tho!) , and suddenly we’re in a basket ball court with the personality of boiled rice.
Don’t even get me started on the pacing. It dragged and then sprinted like it forgot it had a finale this week. The vampire lore made no sense, the world-building was held together with vibes and eyeliner, and the product placement? Aggressively shoved in like a jump scare. Yes, I saw the blood-colored tomato juice or food coloring material. No, I didn’t ask for it.
In conclusion:
My Golden Blood had potential, but unfortunately, potential doesn’t pay rent. We deserved better. Justice for vampire BLs everywhere. 🧛🏻♂️🩸❌
My Golden Blood – 5.5/10 (and that’s me being NICE)
