Not just about Boy love or any kind of love
thaole-399998 August 2021
Warning: Spoilers
SPOIL ALERT!!!!

A tale of thousand stars is a movie about the journey of an arrogant boy, who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, after a near-death experience. Tian (Mix Sahaphap) is fortunate to receive a second chance to live thanks to the donor heart of a girl who had a traffic accident.

Because of the sense of guilty, he decided to fulfill the girl's last wishes. He became a volunteer teacher of a village in the wild (Thousand Stars Village), where his benefactor worked. Being there taught Tian to be independent and patient, to care about people and find his own ideal of life.

Besides, he also found the love of his life, Phupha (Earth Pirapat). He is the captain of the rangers here (Doi Pha Tang) and also the one who takes care of and protects the villagers. They meet, teach each other lessons, warm each other's loneliness and help people's lives. It can be said that the character Phupha plays a very important role for Tian's psychological changes and marks notable milestones of the film.

Unlike other Thai Boy-Love films, one of the most special things of A tale of thousand stars is the acting of EarthMix. Because there is no awkwardness, pressure from camera angles or cutting techniques, the chemistry between the two is so real and passionate.

It was only until the last episode that the show featured a kissing scene of Phupha and Tian. However, that not only does not reduce the attraction, but also increases the excitement, bringing the characters closer to the audience. Because the way EarthMix shows love for each other through each handshake or smile is enough to make our hearts throb and cheeks suddenly become hot as if we were really there. Morover, the look that the two look at each other is even more amazing. It pushes our emotions to the climax.

EarthMix has portrayed the pure and primordial beauty of love. Two strangers find peace and respect on being together. They love not only the good, but also the defective parts of the other. Tian is stubborn and impulsive. Phupha is quiet and hot-tempered. Two imperfect puzzle pieces accidentally fit together. In the midst of thousands of controversies, love tragedies, Phupha and Tian are a peaceful song, reminding us of the true meaning of loving and connecting with someone.

However, the factors that makes the film successful don't stop there. The message and natural beauty also contribute significantly to make its difference.

Tian and Phupha represent a kind, intelligent and courageous young generation. They live fully with their own ideals, protect the life of the mountains and forests, and take care of miserable lives of the mountainous people. They exchange their comfortable, modern lives to return to the wild land where doesn't even have electric lights. They left behind opportunities to become successful men in society, people with power in their hands, because of the desire to teach for local kids whose eyes are as bright as the full moon, to live between heaven and earth and protect the beauty of life. A poor captain of the rangers. A volunteer teacher. How much courage does it take to become extraordinary people like them?

Doi Pha Tang is located in Chiang Rai province. With a meandering mountainside structure, it depicts a scene that demonstrates the interference of heaven and earth and all living things. Throughout the film, we can also see the peaceful, green tea hills. At night, the moonlight gently embraces everything. The wind blew past, teasing the hair of ancient trees. In the quiet space, the passionate symphony of trees and wind echoes. Scenery escapes mundane, our hearts are peaceful and light.

Astounding and Confounding Storyline
pycjarps7 March 2021
The story of every episode is taking my breath away. I totally agree with IMDb rating of 9.5. This is the kind of drama that should be supported and appreciated by viewers. This drama has no resemblance with other BL drama that has so many inappropriate scenes. The storyline of this drama is clean and sweet, fascinating and surprisingly beautiful. I just love it so much and don't want it to end.

So incredibly good
regularjeanclaude31 March 2021
Theres something about the way this beautiful story is told, the immense acting abilities that make Tian and Phupha's blooming relationship look so natural. It's also so far from other BL dramas, in its maturity and how it handles the genuine aspects of slowly falling in love and finding care for another in this way. Truly a beautiful story, I cannot wait to watch the final and inevitably cry my eyes out.

Thank you.

Not an ORDINARY Love Story
jashiieexx1 April 2021
This one is the most anticipated series that I've watch this 2021, the fact that I've waited for almost a year and now it was worth watching for. They exceed my expectations for a drama even tho it has only 10 episodes but the emotions they build is so great plus the breath taking view of the village is so amazing. There's alot of Lessons we can learn and applied it to real world. For me ATOTS is one of my fave drama this year and it has a place in my heart, they are so special. Hands down to all the people who made this Drama it was so beautiful and all.

Another Good BL Drama I encountered
ohanijoo19 March 2022
Theme is unique and character development is quite visible but not quite happy with the ending, needed more closure.

Really expecting a second season as the chemistry is awesome with the main leads.

ONE OF THE BEST
akikoyhm30 May 2021
I'm not good at writing reviews so I just gonna tell my feelings throughout this series. Thai BL have reached a whole new level with A Tale of Thousand Stars. The storyline and the characters of this seriez are very much different from the other typical BL ones and this makes it even more special. If you're looking for a story portraying pure love, this is the one. The chemistry between Earth and Mix are so good that even skinships aren't necessary. Just the two of them staring into each other's eyes can melt you. I don't wanna spoil y'all so I'll just put it briefly. "Tian" will be the softest, purest and the most angelic character among everything you've seen. The character development is so heartwarming and Mix really brought the best of Tian that it is even hard to believe that this is his first acting debut. Also, for Earth, I've seen his previous works but he seems the most natural and comfortable with Mix. There is no awkwardness at all. I'll have to say that he has found his ultimate pair and I'm so happy for that.

For the sceneries and soundtracks, this series slays it all. The side characters stand out so well, too. You will get several life lessons watching this. Trust me, just give it a try and you'll never be able to forget this masterpiece.

This series.

jmcar-0957124 June 2021
If you are looking for a typical BL series filled of hot scenes or «action», you can go a watch for other BL... If you give it a chance you won't regret it and I'm assure you that you will cry.

This is not a typical BL drama.
mmywf12 October 2021
Warning: Spoilers
I've watched famous Thai BL dramas such as 2gether, TharnType, Theory of Love and Sotus.

This drama, A Tale of Thousand Stars, is kinda different from those series. This series has less sexual or romance scenes but focusing on "LIFE". Through this drama I saw the main character, Tian, grow up inside out and find himself and what he really wants to pursue in his life. I cried so hard that I had a headache lol.

THIS SERIES IS ONE OF THE BEST.

AN EMOTIONAL ROLLERCOASTER
janedoefukushima19 March 2022
I did not expect the plot and its twists to turn out like that. Other than the fact that the story itself is amazing, the actors and their chemistry are amazing too. After I watch this series I was instantly swallowed into the EarthMix fandom, nothing just beats their chemistry, they feel so real like they were meant for eachother. And the efforts of the cast and crew were just everything, they were filming in a mountain and filming when weather conditions are unstable. P'Aof and its cast and crew really did an amazing job with everything. They played with my emotions so many times. Earthmix and P'Aof really deserves all the awards in the world.

mathdotwav4 March 2022
Literally the most beautiful bl I have ever seen. So perfect, the caracter development is right, the plot is right, it's nothing crazy or unbelievable, it's just... perfection. I cannot even start to explain the impact that this beautiful piece of work had in me, it just changed my view of true love and made me interested in bl series again. Perfect, a work of art, beautiful.

Really Good
laijieying23 July 2022
The story is interesting, I mean the story is not only shows the relationship between both main charactors, also talk about the villagers, kids, friendship. The experience of become a volunteer. The most impressed for me is the night scene at hills, when Tian counting stars, it feels like he is really into the character, the scenario. I think Director is really good, the scene he took is breath taking, the storyline and how the scene showed to me, the songs, really good. Thankfully can enjoy this drama, my pressure to watch it.

So far is the best Thai Series for me. Love it.

I am just in love with 1000Stars
baritashrunu29 April 2024
This is the most beautiful thing I ever watched... I was mesmerized.. it made me laugh it made me cry.. it makes me scared yet relieved at the same moment.... I really don't have any favourite series but now I can surely say that " A tale of thousand stars" is my most favourite.. I never cried like this because of a series.. but I did... I got all the hopes back that I lost somewhere in love.. Now I know that sometimes waiting is our part of the story even it hurts... and it's worthy... I wish that I can re-watch 1000 times more and every time cry.. And Hope all get the same love we deserve....

A new wind for BL series
natytran18 March 2022
I truly like the plot and how every charaters develop. By having the back story staying away from school boy/ uni students background, this series indeed open a new path for BL industry. The only thing I dont like about 1000stars is that the ending is quite rush, it would be better if there is a little bit more time.

Heartwarming romance
adrianaprsouza-6388616 November 2021
Warning: Spoilers
The story is very simple, it's a soap opera narrative without many characters nor subplots but this is not a bad thing, not at all, because the main plot is well done and interesting. I won't say much about the story, just that Tian, the main character, received a heart in a sudden transplant and his life and the life of the donor connected forever. It's not a supernatural story as it might have sounded but there is this feeling of destiny throughout the series. It's a boys love show so it's not a spoiler to say Tian is gonna find somebody to love after his second chance in life. Moreover, I liked all the characters, they feel real and their interactions are delightful to see because of the great chemistry between actors. I can't praise Sahaphap Wongratch enough for what he did with Tian. It's a character in a journey to understand himself, with many doubts, and he conveyed this through his performance. Furthermore, the conflicts in the narrative are very true situations related to politics, corruption, economic inequality and social pressure. Something I loved about this series is how it is a love letter to simplicity. It beautifully explores the difference between knowledge and wisdom, showing that the second doesn't depend on money or on a degree. There are many insightful and meaningfull quotes that add a lot to the day of who watches the series, about nature, friendship, love and other universal themes. In addition to this, I loved the sets and if one day I go to Thailand I'll certainly visit that region. To end this, if you don't mind very simple plots and you are looking for a light and heartwarming love story I recommend A Tale of Thousand Stars (2021).
