Mou Mou (2024)

another comfort series!

even though it seems like this is an open-ending series, but i really love everything in it! a lot of details worth the time! because i can rewatch this series over and over again and find more details that could elaborate to the story line more. i have no complaint at all since i know there might be another series coming very soon! definitely waiting for jiang tian's background and how their relationship will develop in the future.

one of the reason why i like this series so much is because how involved the studying plot. i mean, i do need the motivation to study. and by this, i'm very motivated to study because i see how hardworking they are for their grades.

another reason is their acting. especially for ben, i love the facial expressions! i love to interpret my own thinking to what is he going through based on how he expresses the character.

maybe the last reasons: ost and another small details. who knows the ost would have so much impact on the series and me myself?? i could never be happy while listening to the ost tho. for the small details, i'm currently rewatching the whole series and i'm at eps 11. i didn't really pay attention to how they address each other. but now i guess i need to rewatch again and see how it's different. from xiaowang and gege.

oh there might be some details that are not explained in this series. but it isn't that crucial. but if they actually elaborate more, i think it will be more complete and clear.

Story with an amazing storyline of 2024

I am absolutely in love with this series. I'll share the things that kept me hooked up till the end. I really hate rushed storylines or too slow story too, for me this story have an absolute balance it's not too rushed to make them fall in love immediately or too slow that the characters doesn't come close till the end of the series. Another thing about the story is the way the dialogues deliver their emotions especially in a poetic manner, the deep meanings attached is my favourite. As for acting, I don't think kissing or being close define chemistry, it's way more than that in BL for me and the actor had the capability to show the chemistry even without being close, especially their eyes the love, pain, fear were all in their eyes it was so evident. The actors did an absolute fabulous job, the cast not just main but also the support actors are well suited for their parts, all are doing an amazing job. The show delivering not just love but complications of age, family, friends all in one, that so, so beautifully that I can't wait for the season 2. I am literally ready to beg on my knees for it.....😭🙇‍♀️

left my heart in a state of colossal turmoil

I'm writing this after shreding a mug ( lets be real a liter) of tears or something. I hadn't even finished the series when the tears kicked in. Personally I'm not AT ALL someone who likes to cry or people who cry, but the ending....just. broke. me.
This series was.......in more than just a few ways.....of retreat for me. The first few minutes of me, right after watching the last episode, was distraught. Usually I don't watch dramas that are still in the phase of being aired, due to the uncertainty of the endings, but I just had a feeling back then....that this would be great. And honestly it was, until the last 12 mins of ep 12.
This series................it's got that essence to it which says: Those transient years of teenage are like the golden leaves of fall. It's a series which lets you read into the tinest interactions between the leads, defying the reality (in the story) and keep hoping that it's gonna be possible, wishing that those hugs, lingering touches, stolen glances turn out to be something more than just brotherly love.
In the 11 eps, Jiang Tian and Sheng Wang slowly learn about eachother, through ups and downs, the darkess of their pasts, and slowly become eachother's safe place. *giggles* From the very first day the chemistry between them was very much something that only a chemistry-blind, low eq dumbo would not be able to see. The tranquility of the series was so satisfying, somehow it makes you fall in love with the process of falling in love as a 17 year old when you feel like you can be at the top of the world. The slow and steady unraveling of the 'emmotionally fort'-ed Tian and the 'love deprived' Wang, gets you soo deep into the story that you don't even realise before you start noticing every minor detail, every small act, looking into the meaning. Grinning and screaming at the screen.
The cinematography, was very very very beautifully placed. The steadiness and the stillness so crystally placed. Changing weathers with changing feelings. Beautiful. Growing emotions with growing times.
The last 12 mins though, killed me. Big brother, broken bracelets, intentional failing to change classes, and distancing.
In many ways the series has left open an option for a season two and I would watch it again even breaks my heart.

A Realistic Depiction of Teenage Romance & Relationships

The human heart is a stormy place, and when paired with thought, it becomes even more tumultuous. Love isn’t logical—it’s a force that heals, torments, and binds, sometimes all at once.

When mixed with thought, love can often feel like madness.

Adapted from the novel Mou Mou by Mu Su Li, the Taiwanese BL The On1y One defies expectations while exploring love amidst emotional turmoil. Starring Liu Dong Qin as the studious and friendly Sheng Wang and Benjamin Tsang as the reserved loner Jiang Tian, the series follows two boys with their own personal traumas who are brought together as unexpected brothers.

I’ve started this review a thousand times—not because I’m sad, though I am, but because The On1y One gave us so much to think about and feel.

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.

A RECORD OF YOUTH

Strangers who turned enemies, then friends to brothers before they realised that what they felt for each other was so much more.

This is what I signed up for to begin with. I never imagined life at 17 could be that tedious or that two divergent characters could abandon their own natures and embrace those of their better halves.

Now this is more than an average junior high school crush when you realise that "spoiler alert" almost all the Couples feel restrained, afraid perhaps even uncertain of themselves. They fight heads on and yield the same way until you realise that they are all willing to give up as much or more for each other's sake. I couldn't find any reason to deny this show the perfect 10 perhaps even 1,000,000/10 cause it deserves it being a story of growth, sacrifice, longing and the feeling of wanting something you'd never have.

We need a season 2. This is my favourite BL of 2024.

Pathetic Ending ruined Whole wonderful series.

Last episode spoiled the whole wonderful series. Seriously. This series could be a masterpiece but everything was ruined in the last episode. It was so dramatic so overacted. It was just changing the class and they showed like someone died or left the country and never gonna meet again. Plot became so so so weak. Only one thing was good that is expressions and emotions played by the actors. They did great whatever the pathetic script they had been given. But seriously, I am so so disappointed by the production, writing team. It's lik, we all been cheated, tortured and they played with our emotions . After so many things till 11 episodes, we just came back at the point where, it's like nothing happened. I always used to say that Taiwanese BLs never disappoint but now I am sorry. Now I don't think, I can trust blindly to choose the Taiwanese BLs to watch. Highly disappointed.

Que dorama lindo! Me apaixonei!

Ai gente que dorama lindo. Eu como uma amante de doramas chineses digo que a produção está um clássico chinês (e que eu amo!!).
A história é abordada de uma forma linda! A cinematografia é linda, a produção perfeita, a atuação impecável não deixou nada a desejar eu adorei o trabalho de todos os atores! E a trilha sonora incrível, que músicas lindas, cada música encaixando perfeitamente em cada cena.

O enredo tem uma história diferente do comum que não estava esperando gostar, mas me surpreendeu completamente e me prendeu do começo ao fim!

A química do casal principal exala de longe, sem nenhuma palavra, só com olhares e ações você consegue perceber o que eles sentem e a intensidade do que eles sentem. Vou falar aqui (não acho q seja um spoiler) eles não chegam a dar um beijo de amor, mas nem tudo são flores né e pra uma série ser boa não precisa necessariamente de um beijo, acho muita ignorância ter uma visão de que é ruim por que não tem beijo.
Como ainda tem a segunda temporada, alguns pontos que ficaram soltos foram propositais para serem explicados na próxima temporada, que inclusive estou muito ansiosa!! Tenho certeza que eles vão arrasar muito!!

Por fim, é um bl que eu me apaixonei completamente, um bl lindo de assistir, recomendo demaaais pra quem gosta de assistir uma série bonita e bem feita, que não é só put4r1a.

Meaningful!

Series ini bukan hanya sekedar series bL biasa yang dipenuhi dengan romansa dan ekspektasi, series ini benar-benar terasa realistis dan atau bahkan mungkin related dengan kehidupanmu! Sheng Wang dan Jiang Tian merupakan gambaran bentuk realistis dari kehidupan, konflik yang disajikan, resolusi, semuanya terasa bergerak secara realistis, tidak berlebihan dan terasa seperti sedang menonton kehidupan yang nyata. Romansa yang disajikan tidak terlalu ekstrim namun sangat terasa vibrasinya, dari segi warna mirip seperti your name engraved herein, bentuk cerita dan beberapa scene-nya dibuat related dengan YNEH - karena diproduseri oleh orang yang sama. Cerita series ini sangat bagus, punya life meaning yang berarti, saya merekomendasikan series ini.
