Mou Mou (2024)

Cautions! Maybe contains little bit spoiler :)

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR, JUST WATCH THIS DRAMA!!!!
REMEMBER TO WATCH ON THE OFFICIAL PLATFORM BECAUSE IT'S ON NETFLIX, IQIYI, WETV, VIKI, GAGAOOLALA.
To be honest, at first I was hesitant and not very interested because I had just finished THE SPIREALM so I was in the moving on phase from Ruange AHAHAH. And again, the theme of this drama is created quite often, the theme of adopted brothers and sisters falling in love, a theme often found in Chinese BL dramas. For me, the best drama with that theme is ADDICTED HERION, so it was clear that I was skeptical about watching THE ON1Y ONE. But I thank my FYP tiktok AWOWJOWODOWKWKK they made me curious and tried to watch it AND I'M ADDICTED LOL. Entering the story which has a market plot but believe me Mr. Pat3liu directed it in a very epic and interesting way. Maybe many fans of the novel are disappointed with the plot which doesn't match the novel, but HELLO GUYS! This is a drama so adjustments need to be made so that the story makes more sense and can be accepted by others, not just novel readers. Next, Benjamin and Dongqin's chemistry, I admit their chemistry is crazy, it's very compatible, you could even say that their meeting was like fate, it's their first time playing a role in a BL drama but their acting seems very natural, kudos to the casting team. The music, lighting arrangement, background theme, and direction are very good, throughout watching I wondered how he had an idea like that. It's very clear why I gave this drama a 10/10, I hope season 2 happens without a hitch and can be broadcast soon :))))))

The best series of the year.

After The Untamed, i think this drama is gonna be my all time favorite. The storyline is so refreshing to watch and the actors (Eric and Ben) are so good in their characters that it really feels like they are the real sheng wang and jiang tian. This drama proved that it really don't need to have intimate scenes or anything to portrait the pure love and affection of two people. Each and every episode left beautiful yet painful marks on my heart. Really wishing for its second season because it is the story which really have to end and doesn't go in vain, like it's necessary and must to know what future holds for them. Really invested in the second season. At last i would say the actors are so amazing like its so refreshing to watch them. The very last episode really left me in hurtful situation. Hopefully we'll see them again, until then I'll cry and be depressed.

Overall worth it

You get this type of emotionally captivating series rarely from time to time.
At first the story seemed simple but throughout the series it gets deeper/complicated in a good way.
I didnt feel bored watching every episode and waited weekly for every episode which something rare while watching many series these days this one gets you hooked right on.

Liked:
- main leads were great
-emotional scenes and story is well paced (imo)
- the osts are amazing

Things to consider: (little spoiler)
There's some stuff that wasn't covered yet in this season which might be a cliffhanger for some. It was announced they're already done/working on s2 script.

SEASON 2 is a MUST.

The On1y One is a BL series from Taiwan and they really make good ones. I will be honest and be straight that this is such a good series and my only ick is that ending. I know that they are trying to set up a second season for this show but I am not sure if there will be one so I am a bit scared that this might be where things will be going. Anyways, before we start with the talks of the second season, let us first talk about the first one. The story is about Sheng Wang and Jiang Tian who are now forced to be siblings because Sheng Wang’s father and Jiang Tian’s mother are now a couple and they are now starting to live together. We have seen this kind of siblings to lover’s storyline but what makes this so good are the characters. I want to highlight that the relationship may have started as this cliché storyline that we have seen where they are fighting but end up together. I think you can say that it is in a way like that but what makes this so good is that the characters are amazing not just the lead characters but everyone in the story. It is important in making a good show and they were able to cast amazing actors here. On top of that, we also have an amazing writer and director that did not really let the story stale. It is flowing seamlessly and they really focused on letting the relationship between the lead characters grew so naturally that it convinces me why they are so close together. Sheng Wang is played by Liu Dong Qin who resembles New so much from Thailand and is the other half of my favorite love team in Thailand so I am immediately drawn to him. He is so cute and I think what really made this character so attractive is that he is smart and acts so cute. I will have to say that I even fell in love with how the character is portrayed. He is also very nuanced as we got a side story of a kid who really loves his mother who died so the fact that a new woman is taking in that position from her deceased mother is a bit hard for him and that is understandable but they did not play on the character recklessly. Instead, he is a very kind person who accepted her as part of his family but not a replacement of his mother but an addition to his family and that really is such a mature thing to do. I feel like we do not always get that kind of representation onscreen so that is much appreciated. We also have Jiang Tian who is played by Benjamin Tsang. The character is more reserved and is the top student. He is very stereotypical smart kid but what him so interesting to watch is how his character evolved from being someone who easily moves from one place to another to someone who have found his own place. I feel like he had to play a much darker character with all the trauma that he had to go through when he was younger. I think it was believed that his father is abusive but little did we know is that there is so much to the story. This is a miss for the show and I hope something that they will tackle more about because this is a good storyline and to leave it like that is just bad. Jiang Tian had more of the opening up to do here because he is the more reserve character but we also got amazing Jiang Tian moments at the end where he is showing so much concern for him and I love those moments regardless of how small they may all have been. It is such a sweet story to see Jiang Tian and Sheng Wang really have this connection that is just getting stronger as the story progress. Actually, the small details that they were able to put in is really highlighting how this relationship went pass being brothers and into lovers already because they are so romantic to each other already. They had so many good scenes together where they are so sweet but I would understand if they will take their time thinking about it considering how Jiang Tian first saw something like it and how they are still very young kids. I mean, just look at Xi and Linzi who are adults already and are still confused with it. I think I will forgive them if they are just letting the characters have some time to figure things out. I think that is okay and they are still young. I just want to make sure that we will have a second season and get a happy ending because the ending we got here is not really sad but they are apart. I think it will be not the best way to end such story considering how they are really pushing for it. Anyways, I just want to give a special shoutout to their friend group. I think they were really able to establish a good set of characters to be their friends here. They are so fun but Andy Chen as Gao Tian Yang is just criminally hot. He is the hottest and funniest boy in their class and I just instantly fell in love with this guy. He is so cute and the muscles are insane. INSANE. He is so hot. I wish we got to see his shirt off but we did not. He is so nice to everyone to and he had this storyline of him being into Little Pepper but she is interested in Sheng Wang. Now, this is another storyline that I wish they are trying to explore in the second season. We really need a second season for this show because there are so many loose ends in the story and I wish they release it now. I love and enjoyed this show so much that I am wishing to see more of it as soon as possible.

Just wow!

Honestly I wasn't sure what to expect but I am amazed! This story is definitely not just another step brother BL. The depth to the characters and how they help one another is beautiful. I was very suspicious when I saw that both main actors are basically 30, but I honestly don't think I'd want anyone else. They are phenomenal actors! The chemistry they share is astounding. It's not just attraction but the care they have for each other that feels so natural. It is a slow burn, but I definitely don't mind. I hope the rest of the series is just as good. Tian and Wang deserve so much happiness.
