Um Conto de Mil Estrelas (2021)

Espetacular

Que série maravilhosa! Uma história linda de tocar o coração. Dificilmente uma série/dorama consegue me fazer chorar, e essa foi uma delas. Não consegui resistir ao quão lindo esse dorama é.
Com um romance leve, fofo e confortável. Um enredo perfeito. Uma atuação excelente. Uma trilha sonora linda que me emocionou demais. Um cenário maravilhoso. Tudo isso faz com que esse seja um dos meus doramas favoritos.
O casal tem um romance leve e bonito, que não precisou mais do que olhares para expressar o que sentem.
Todos os personagens secundários são tão queridos, as cenas com as crianças sempre me fazendo sorrir.
As frases no final de cada ep como se fosse uma moral, foram muito lindas.
Até mesmo na edição, na transição das propagandas pros eps com aqueles "vídeos" e no final de cada episódio com as fotos que foram tiradas durante a gravação. Tudo influenciou para que esse bl seja lindo!
Foram poucas coisas irrelevantes que me incomodaram no dorama, mas que realmente não atrapalharam em nada, só um "detalhe" meu msm.

Recomendo muitíssimo, é um bl lindo, de aconchegar o coração e até tomar lições pra vida.

Loved it

Watched this after watching moonlight chicken. Loved it! The chemistry between the leads is delicious! Honestly, few actors and directors in this genre can pull off sexy, fiery chemistry with words and eyeing each other. It's practically G- rated and yet it feels very mature and not childish or cheesy at all. Additionally, the production is modern and detailed and professional. The OST is beautiful and fits the tone of the show some well. And all the characters main and support feel well fleshed out and enjoyable. I adored this series so much because it was so unexpected.

Beautiful and deep with lot of heart - literally!

What a beautiful story, landscape, cinematography and actors, especially Mix=Tian. From behind the scene you can see how much he gave into the character. Very well done! I felt all the emotions!

It's a very deep story about heart transplantation and what that mean for the recipient to get a new heart from a strange person.

The love story is slow and deep until it reaches the peak. Great chemistry!
There are a lot of very wise messages about life in this series, I liked it a lot.

A big complement to the director and screenwriter.
The OST ist wonderful fitting to the location and the story.

Rewatch value very high!

Uma história linda

Devo dizer que adoro clichês mas quando alguma obra foge disso e de maneira magnifica eu gosto mais ainda e um belo exemplo disto é A Tale of Thousand Stars.
Primeiro o dorama tem um clima simples e gostoso, ele se passa em uma área rural e a obra é acompanhada de músicas lindas, principalmente a de abertura, onde o instrumento principal é uma flauta, o que dá ainda mais o tom de simplicidade e quando você escuta e sabe a história do dorama, tudo se torna incrível e significativo, você entra em harmonia com os personagens, com a história em si e a voz do cantos, suave linda, completa tudo isso, ainda mais quando a mesma é acompanhada de atuações maravilhosas e uma direção e um enredo impecável. Por isso dou nota 10 a tudo, produção, atuação, tudo tá muito bem feito nesse drama, e o romance, minha nossa, que romance, é raro quando algo me deixa ansioso, mas esse casal conseguiu e ainda me fez chorar ! Incrível e lindo.
Um Conto de Mil Estrelas com certeza é um dos melhores doramas ou senão o melhor dorama tailandês desse ano.
E por favor, procure a tradução da letra da musica de abertura depois de assistir, torna o dorama ainda mais bonito.

A series with real heart

I'll be honest, I only watched this show because I'm trying to work my way through all the shows that will be featured in Our Skyy 2 next year; I'd watched two shows and fell in love with them, so I figured I'd watch the rest. I also may be watching almost anything that has a hint of Khaotung Thanawat, so.

After watching the first episodes I actually put the show on hold because it wasn't really grabbing me. However, this show is probably one of the best I've watched this year.

The writing and pacing of this series is much better and healthier than the majority of BLs, I feel, and it was really refreshing.

Something I was surprised to find myself liking is the fact we go through the entire show without any physically romantic scenes; let's be honest, we all love a good spicy scene, but this series really didn't even need any. The lead actors manage to convey emotion and chemistry without even touching each other, and whenever there is the odd lingering touch it really drags you in further. When we do get the kiss at the very end, it felt worth the wait (albeit a little unusual that two adult men declared their everlasting love for one another without even kissing, but we're all hopeless romantics now and then).

Another thing I feel like this show should be commended on is that it doesn't overly focus on Torfun's killer; yes, of course her death is a large focus, but there's no big REVENGE plot or anything, it's just people dealing with loss and trying to move on, and I felt like that was good. I know some people find Prem being the driver a cop out, but I think it served the main plot really well.

This show has a lot of heart, and I think the supporting cast should get credit for much of that. The children were fantastic, as were Nammon, White, Champ and Drake.

I'm really looking forward to the 1000 Stars episode of Our Skyy 2 next year, and I'm so glad I took a chance on this little series.

EARTHMIX ARE ROCKING IT!

This story sure has some highs and lows and there were some moments that disappointed me but more there were moments that melted my heart and gave me butterflies in my stomach. Like every romantic scene of Tian and Phupha got me flying in space without oxygen. Without skin ship, their chemistry was seen just in their stares like the first time they ever met there was such a big attraction. I liked that no one really cared about their sexuality just Tian himself was worried cuz it was new to him but others made him sure it's really fine as long he loves the person. I loved Tian's moments with the children, they were so touching and those kids were so sweet but not so innocent towards the end, heheh. Doc Nam was our supporter from the beginning making our ship true and I really appreciate this character. Phupha was such a workaholic and also thought he's not good enough to find his love but Nam kept giving him confidence in his love life.
What disappointed me was how everyone turned their back on Tian as they knew the truth about Torfun. I understood the villagers, Tian was still a stranger to them so they had rights to have trust issues but Phupha disappointed me in this matter. Not only he didn't understand the situation, he accused Tian of stealing Torfun's heart which she voluntarily gave as a donor. Plus it's not like Tofun was on the crosswalk, she literally ran to the road without looking around but others and even Tian blamed himself for her death. Tian had such a self-conscious throughout this story and when he needed Phupha the most, he was not there for him. I have to appreciate Longtae, our little Khaotun, played such a great friend here. He understood Tian the most without judging him and even overcame his own fears for him. I really enjoyed his character and his father Khama was literally the same, tried to understand Tian even as the leader without judging him. Really great character.
I get Torfun was really important to the story but sometimes it already got annoying when they were mentioning her name the whole time after every little thing Tian did, seriously but I liked her character. Even though she was rejected by Phupha, she kept wishing he finds the right person for him.
My favorite episode has to be 10th. It was so moving , the reconcilation was muahh and those kisses oh damn. Not even gonna mention the last scene with my dirty mind but really great story. Not my favorite bl but EarthMix really got my attention here and I'll definitely watch their other series

One of best BL's out there

If you want to watch a beautiful BL with insane chemistry - watch Tale of Thousand Stars!

The story is well made. It's slow paces but the leads make each episode better than the other. The characters are written beautifully, the breathtakkng scenery and love the side characters too! It's worth mentioning about Tian's character growth from being the spoiled rich kid to learning about himself is brilliant. This isnt only story about love but self growth, discovery about yourself and life.
At first I wasn't sure why this BL seemed so familiar but then after couple episodes it me: it reminds of Sotus the Series (maybe it's just me?), not from the plot but the insane off the roots chemistry the leads have just by staring at each other. Sotus was also focusing less on touching and the pure, unconditional love they had and they didn't need to kiss or touch to show it. I absolutely love that when BL's do it.

I've always been a fan of that Grumpy x Sunshine love trope, where the grumpy one slowly gets to open up.
Phu is one of my favorite characters. At first he's seen as strict, very stern, not smiling. Him and Tian keep bickering yet have this chemistry off the roots from first scenes together. Phu slowly opens up to Tian, you see him slowly losening up and being less stressed. He falls for Tian and I loved we see him only smile with him. Those small, yet powerful stares they share - they don’t need any kissing scenes or spicy ones cos the eyes and their body language tells it all! God, I love stories like this where they don’t need touching because their gazes simply tell how much in love they are. That moment leading up to the most anticipated kiss.. soo worth it!!
(Though, just my opinion: no kissing for two years? I know they wanted it to be this romantic kiss but that got me thinking lmao)

The reason I am not giving this series 10 (I really wanted to) was the unnecessary drama at the end. It didn't fit the shows focus and shifted it for me too much, some of the drama between Tian and Phu seemed OOC for being there only for the sake of drama. The gang drama would have been enough - but Phu working for his dad all along was too much. Some of it seemed to be made up at the spot to create so much drama, when there was barely none in the previous episodes. They could have just done that Tian chose to study in America and Phu to wait for him (the scene at the wedding.. angsty for the sake of angst).

Despite this, I really enjoyed this and think it's one of the best BL's made for a long time.

Orchestra of heartstrings

Honestly, it's no surprise that a story that began with a heart transplant would tug at the viewer's so much. I don't think I've ever gotten more teary eyed in any other series I've watched to date but I don't regret a single moment of it. This show was outstanding from beginning to end. Quite frankly, I'm rather speechless to be able to point out any specifics. Suffice it to say, this was beautifully done from the storytelling to the cinematography to the acting and everything in between.

If I really had to nitpick, there were a couple of things I could have done without which is the only reason it's not a 10 rating for me. Some silly little things like how the rangers are always in camo but then when they are out in the sunny daytime hunting down guys in the forest, they are in black so they stand out like a sore thumb... like, that's the whole point of having camo, guys. And the fact that the mom wants Tian to go to the US to get a teaching degree when he'll be coming back to Thailand to teach and they have completely different curriculums. The whole thing doesn't make sense and it just prolongs his future even further. I'm also not a fan of the kids-having-to-live-their-lives-for-their-parents trope though I know that's "a thing." But when Chief is literally telling Tian to live for himself and do whatever his heart wants and yet throwing him back to his parents to fulfill their wishes, that is one heavy oxymoron in a single breath.

But, like I said, this is really pulling at threads here because the show had so much good to it that the bad is easily forgiven/forgotten.

You will keep this one handy to watch again...

Loved this series. LOVE the connection between Earth and Mix. The playful banter. The shyness - who wants to admit it first? Everything. When I saw this the first time - I wasn't sure how the whole heart transplant thing would fit into the overall story but, it was handled so well.

I liked the level of detail of having the Chief know almost everything that was going on - with the exception of what happened to Torfun beyond dying. The side characters are entertaining and I loved that the corruption was kept to the area and didn't branch off into dangerous mob territory that could/would never end the tormenting of the villagers. Think - small town crime.

One of my favorite moments is when Tian meets the Chief for the first time. The writers and director took the time to build up to that moment beautifully. We know he is still recovering and it takes this moment for us to see what could happen when you push yourself too hard post surgery. Beautifully photographed and captured. How many of us dreamed of being in Earth's arms at that moment? LOL

Happy the child actors were up to par - believable and you got to know them enough to care about what happened to each and every one of them. Would love to see a sequel - just for the pure joy of seeing the whole cast again.

A lovely and comfy show.

A Tale of a Thousand stars is, before anything else, a really comfortable watch, the show handles the setting really well, immersing us in this quiet town, setting up a great atmosphere and tone for the show.

The soundtrack was fine, nothing too crazy about about the songs expecept for the main theme, who even though is really soap-operay really pulls on the heartstrings each episode.

The characters are really charming, especially the secondary cast. Chief Phupha and Tian have great chemstry that is somewhat bogged down by the sloppy writing in the finale.

My main problem with the show is the third act, this big bombastic ride of revelations and misencounters was handled a bit poorly in my opinion, characters are too hasty, ommit information without any reasons, take really roundabout ways to make a point, the scenes drag on and on a drama that could've been easily solved if the characters talked like normal humans. The last two episodes were especially guilty of this when there are whole segments of Tian just doing nothing of importance.

Even though I have this big gripe with the show, I can recomend ATOTS, for its amazing setting, great story with a hint of mystery and its great characaters.
