I watched More Than Blue (the tw version) twice and with this drama series it is my 3rd time watching. Even if I knew how the story goes, I still shed tears like a leaking tap (prepare tissues!).

Initially, when I first saw this drama on Netflix, I thought it would be repetitive. Moreover, the movie played by jasper and ivy remains superior in my opinion. But I was hell wrong. I was captured in the 1st episode.

The drama was written so carefully and added new elements to the plot. It gave the characters more background information, and I would be able to understand the motivation/ reason behind each character action (which I wasn’t able to see in the movie). It is interesting to see how the story interlinked with the movie version, and how they connected/ made parallels to each and every character in the show.

I also loved how they used similar sets in the movies, and the way it was shot was very stunning as well. The editing between two timelines are very smooth, and easy to follow too!

I would like to praise on all the actors acting! Their eyes are filled with so much emotions. It was that good! ?? I just want to say I absolutely adore the side characters po han, ahn chi yi and her son. They stole the whole show!! I want to commend on po han and chi yi acting. It was phenomenal!! They had chemistry right at the beginning despite not being main leads. Especially her son ke le!! ?I can totally see his potential!! I just love this trio together!! The mother son due is so cute too!! I would rewatch this entire drama just to see them again ?

Not to mention, I love love love the soundtracks, it fits the storyline so well. It’s gonna be on repeat the next few days.

Although there were some things I didn’t like about the show or didn’t sit well with me.

*Spoiler alert*

I feel that k and cream look too young, maybe they retained their image when they were in highschool? But at the end, it got kinda better.

The dentist and photographer relationship. It’s too complicated for me to understand, and doesn’t really sit well with my morals.

K who stole a kiss when cream is sleeping (without her consent). And when he is on the verge of dying, kissed cream again even though she is married. I get that they love each other, but… it just doesn’t feel right. ??‍♀️

Thank you for reading until the very end of this messy unorganised review. I binged watch this drama in one sitting. A very well-paced, written and compelling story. There were so many lessons I learnt about relationships (be it from a parent or from a lover), death, goodbyes, love and sadness. I cried in all episodes, a drama you should not miss! It earns two thumbs up from me. :)
