Total run-time about 75 minutes over 4 episodes.
STORY: If you have seen the Chinese Addicted web series, you've seen this. It's a super short version of the same story. It's still a good story but there's a lot of cliches in this one: polar opposites who spend a lot of time together, develop feelings, one boy chasing another, kid-sister-type who loves BL and thinks they should be together. You get the picture. Still good to watch though. This does have a HAPPY ending.
ACTING/CAST: Wow, the two guys in this are super HOT. There is also some good chemistry but I sure wish there were more intimate moments! Docked a star for that.
MUSIC: I don't speak it so it probably is a good selection but unmemorable otherwise.
REWATCH VALUE: I would watch it once more with a friend.
TL;DR: Taiwanese version of China's Addicted web series but not as good; also HAPPY ENDING!

The 2 actors had great chemistry and I actually got more invested in these episodes than I thought I would. The actors had some great scenes together that showcased their chemistry and probably had all the viewers rooting for their relationship like the best friend did haha
I also thought the music went quite well with this episode. It was nice and light just like the drama and played at the crucial times where you needed music
Definitely will watch this one again.

THIS MINI SERIES DESERVES A FULL STORY!
First of all, the casting for the main characters is a job well done! Even the girl best friend is fun to watch! The chemistry of the main characters is spot on and i couldn't ask for more except for a longer screen time and a full story for this series. A good 10 to 12 episode where we can fully engaged with this awesome "BL couple", although in those 4 episodes i can see what the writers trying to convey. Nevertheless, I like the story line and where the characters are going! I just wish to see them both in another BL series or something like a sequel or prequel for this mini series.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Cliche but Cute
This story brought nothing new to the table in terms of plot, story, characters, or setting. It is a very safe story with nothing pushing the boundaries outside fluff. But this isn't a bad thing! Its the perfect story for those days you just want to curl up and watch a simple, sweet, cute, and quick drama. I just got to sit back and watch a natural romance between two men develop without having to become invested in anything.The characters are cute and the chemistry between the two male protagonists is adorable. Nothing steamy or overwhelming. Their romance developed naturally and without the infatuation at first sight we get in a lot of romance dramas. The female best friend was amazing and I think we can all identify with her character at one point in our lives.

Tiểu công là diễn viên trẻ nổi tiếng ngày ngày được fan theo đuôi. Ngày nọ cậu chuyển tới sống cùng người anh trai 'hờ' sau khi mẹ tái hôn mà có. Đó cũng là người học chung lớp đại học với cậu, và dĩ nhiên một kẻ không chú tâm vào chuyện học hành như cậu ngay lập tức được ba mẹ gửi gắm cho người anh trai chăm ngoan kia.
Tiểu thụ là chàng trai men-lì với mái tóc húi cua, thân hình rắn rỏi, tuy không cao nhưng mặt mũi và thân hình tuyệt đối không phải kiểu mỹ thụ nhỏ nhắn xinh xẻo. Tiểu công có phần 'xinh' hơn, trẻ con hơn, non hơn vì là em. Thế nhưng tỉ lệ chiều cao của cả 2 quá mỹ mãn khiến mình xem cứ xoắn xuýt mãi. Đặc biệt kiểu trẻ con, lấc cấc, bá đạo của tiểu công cộng thêm vẻ ngoài lừa tình của ẻm khiến trái tim chị gái già cứ xuyến xao hoài :))))
Hai người từ những xích mích bất hòa khi ở chung ban đầu đã dần hòa hợp và nảy sinh tình cảm sau khi sống chung. Thúc đẩy mọi chuyện tiến triển là cô bạn thân hủ nữ của tiểu thụ kiêm fan cuồng siêu căp của tiểu công.
Cách hành động của cô bạn này có phần quá khích, quá đáng nhưng đến cuối cùng tình bạn và sự chân thành của cô gái ấy đã được cả 2 người kia tha thứ.
Bộ phim khá giản đơn về nội dung nhưng sẽ không gây nhàm chán. Diễn viên đóng trọn vai, không gượng ép nên xem rất dễ chịu.
Phim thuộc series 3 bộ cùng với phim Si Mê mình từng review trước đây. Một bộ còn lại sẽ rv trong thời gian gần nhất khi có thể ^^

Outright poor development, with bad acting.
Tired tropes: arrogant actor star, boring nerd boy, overzealous fujoshi, wrongfully placed kiss, couple that can't even make out after they agree to be together because the producers were too cowardly. Honestly, the idea that these characters were even SLIGHTLY interested in each other is totally unsupported by zero chemistry shown on screen and little in the story besides the fact that one takes care of the other out of a sense of duty to his parents. And Edison Song's inability to express anything is comical. These guys end up together in the last 2 minutes of the series, yet all they do is HUG? Wow, such fire! And when we see Cheng Qing in History 3, there's no reference to whether these two characters had a relationship that went anywhere. Why? Well, given what we see here, I highly doubt they did!Esta resenha foi útil para você?

When I thought finally HIStory series that have make sense story & logic, they close the curtain with that kind of ending...Story about 2 man that meet up when their parent married each other & make them into brothers. At first, like brothers meet up when they old, they can't get along too well. Different personalities, lifestyle & everything make a little problem seem big & can be a bigger issue. But nevertheless Cheng Qing (CQ) & Feng He (FH) try their best to get along with each other, especially FH. And over time they get warmer with each other.
And overtime the sibling feeling start to grow into something more. & with the help of FH's friend, Meng Meng (MM) , they're 'forced' to acknowledge their feeling to each other.
And that's when our problem begin... And that's BIG SPOILER ALERT FOR YOU!!!! So if you don't want to know just stop reading until here!!!
Overall between the 3 mini series this drama has. For me this one is the most make sense
The doesn't make sense logic or plot!
We don't get the feeling when FH regrets his decisions to reject QC's feeling. I know FH keep pondering about his own feeling. But i just don't feel it reach us. It just suddenly he has a change of heart with the flick of finger, happen so abruptly. It's like whatever FH considered about their relationship's problem it's not important anymore...
And the messed up things MM did... Ugh!!!! Don't let me start on that one....

Menyukai saudara angkat
Sebenarnya History yang satu ini ceritanya sederhana, yaitu pertemuan dua orang pria yang dipertemukan karena adanya ikatan pernikahan antara orang tua keduanya ; satu dari pihak ibu dan satu dari pihak Ayah. Menceritakan seorang pria bernama Cheng Qing yang merupakan aktor hebat dan terkenal, dia kemudian mulai dipindahkan tempat tinggalnya untuk tinggal bersama saudara angkatnya Feng He ; peristiwa ini terjadi karena orang tua mereka masing-masing menikah dan memutuskan untuk pergi dengan alasan tertentu sehingga Cheng Qing harus menetap di apartement Feng He. Awalnya Feng He tidak bisa menerima Cheng Qing sebagai saudara angkatnya, namun secara perlahan ada beberapa alasan yang membuat Feng He akhirnya bisa menerima Cheng Qing dan bahkan muncul perasaan cinta dari keduanya. Bagaimana kisahnya? Ceritanya dikemas dengan baik, namun detail dari ceritanya menurutku kurang dapet, walaupun chemistry yang ditunjukan sudah cukup namun moment-momentnya menurutku kurang, ekspresi Feng He juga sangat menjiwai tetapi Cheng Qing menurutku terlalu datar, ada sosok Fujo - seperti biasa Fujo selalu hadir di setiap series History, sebagai short movie saya merekomendasikan bL yang satu ini.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

HIStory nunca decepciona
independente da história, a franquia HIStory nunca me decepcionou. Esse BL é da primeira temporada de HIStory, junto com "My hero" e "Obcessed". Dentre os três, esse é meu preferido pois não tem acontecimentos sobrenaturais.A narrativa fala de dois jovens que foram meio que obrigados a viver juntos, pois seus pais se casaram. No início a relação não era muito boa por causa da diferença de personalidade entre eles, mas a relação foi afunilando, os dois foram entrando em sintonia e acabaram se apaixonando.
A série não é perfeita, mas tem dois pontos que me chamam atenção. O primeiro é o fato de ter um elenco fixo de apenas 3 atores, e mesmo assim conseguir transmitir tão bem os sentimentos. O segundo, é que mesmo com um tempo tão resumido (4 eps de mais ou menos 20 minutos), a história de amor conseguiu ter um desenvolvimento razoável dentro desse curto espaço disponível. Talvez por isso a série não tenha trabalhado outros aspectos, como a família deles, a reação dos pais, tudo foi muito centrado no casal.
A história não é profunda demais, é leve, mas existe o conflito interno de Feng He, que não aceita o sentimento de imediato. Não ficou claro pra mim se o conflito era apenas pelo medo da reação dos pais ou se também existia um problema de auto-aceitação. Os atores combinam muito com os personagens, que são bem cativantes, a Meng Meng é uma fofa.
As poucas locações são bonitas, a série tem uma fotografia legal e uma ost linda. Os atores atuam muito bem, não tem como não indicar essa série. Tudo muito fofinho e rápido, excelente para se maratonar em um fim de semana preguiçoso.

A CLICHE PLOT OF 2 STEP BROTHERS FALLING IN LOVE
Nothing special. M watching the HIStory series and so I decided to watch this. I already knew it doesn't really have much to offer but since it's just 4 episodes, I watched it in 1.5x speed. A simple polt - 2 step brothers suddenly living together, buliding up of feelings, misunderstanding, kissing, denial, aproval ..and happy ever after. That's it.The only plus point I find is, though it was a short drama, it didn't feel like it was very fast paced or there was jumping through scenes, which usually happens in many mini series. Overall it's not bad. I mean it's not unwatchable. But yeah I wouldn't re-watch it because there's nothing much to it.

Ok so I liked the couple, they had really good chemistry. I always enjoyed watching their scenes. If it was just the couple I would have given this drama a higher rating... but sadly there was also Meng Meng.I disliked her from the beginning on bc she made Feng He uncomfortable by shipping him with his stepbrother that he just met and imagining scenes that also made him really uncomfortable. I had hopes that she wouldn't get worse but she did, she wrote a fan fiction about them and published it, she stalked them, took pictures of them, wrote a love letter and then made Feng He give it to Chen Ching so he would think it's from him. That was the moment when I really wanted to slam her head against the wall.
Now what I've been thinking about what she did while watching:
1. She took their opportunity to realise their feelings in a natural way and have a good confession
2. What if Chen Ching was homophobic, they didn't know him for long and also she really doesn't know anything about him, she only sees him at school and knows the things that Feng He told her. She didn't care for her best friend, she was just selfish
3.What if Feng He really didn't like Chen Ching and they would have been awkward with each other for the rest of their lives
4. What if both of them didn't like each other but Chen Ching wouldn't believe Feng He that the confession letter is not from him and they still would have been awkward with each other for the rest of their lives
5. Even now that they're happy, Feng He can never trust her again bc she was being so creepy and also their friendship will never be the same again
6.I wish he had never forgiven her, yes she was his best friend for a long time, but that is not how best friends act.
I really hate her and I wish this drama was without a character like that. Still I really enjoyed the drama especially the scenes that were only between the couple.

The overall score of this film for me is 7, which in MDL is technically "I like it" which is really true, I mean I watched the entire movie, never did I skipped a single scene, and I do encourage everyone to check this BL out. But if you check out my other reviews, I usually give good high scores, so 7 is a little bit of a low score for me even if in MDL it's essentially an ok score, as it's the I like it score. Let me explain why I gave this movie only a score of 7, I have nothing against Duke and Edison, I mean these are really two cute and gorgeous actors. With that said, my issue is in the casting. I personally don't think that they have a chemistry. I'm just not feelin' it. If I said that I think they have chemistry, that will be lying. Again there is nothing wrong with Duke and Edison, it's just that they are not clicking together. My suggested solution to this reality really is for Duke and Edison to do more acting workshops together, in that way both of them will be more used to each other, and this will translate to better chemistry and their acting skills will improve, as they are giving me a very stiff performance. I think the director should have picked up on this more, by giving the actors more rehearsals, and more acting training. Stay Away from Me has a challenging theme, they essentially become step brothers, and step brothers falling in love with each other is one of the common BL plots, so basically the job of the actors is to convince us that they truly love each other, and that their BL film will provide a fresh new approach to this common recurring theme. I think the writing and plot lines should have given the actors more room, so they can tackle their roles and give more life to their characters. These are major issues that totally have a film wide impact. As for the music and the fan made music videos that I've seen in other sites, I think its beautiful. I mean these edited videos showed the potentials of the movie as Stay Away from Me has an interesting plot, but the thing is, the movie has structural issues that prevented it to fully give its viewers a satisfying experience. Again, the two actors are very good looking, it's just that they need more time in rehearsals and acting workshops and I personally think they'll be fine. I do believe that in their future movies, they will become more seasoned and more experience, and as an actor they will grow as they gain more experience and exposure in their acting career. Good luck to Duke and Edison! Esta resenha foi útil para você?
