My first Chinese BL/bromance
At this point, I have seen a lot of thai and korean BLs but when clips from Stay with Me started coming onto my tiktok I knew I had to check it out. It was nice that this show had good length episodes and also a lot more episodes in a season than I'm used to! This was my first Chinese bl/bromance. I say "BL/Bromance" because I learned that there are much more strict regulations for chinese shows such as this one but even though it didnt have much physicality in the relationship, I didnt feel like it was lacking anything for the show. The chemistry between the main characters and their relationship was more than enough to keep me very interested. My only complaint is that I'm used to everything wrapping up within one season as a lot of these shows dont get second seasons.... So without saying much about the ending, I was not prepared for the show to leave us with that accident. But other than that, it was a really amazing show, the side characters and their new-found family themes were sooo well done by the acting, scripts, producing, just everything was so well done. Would definitely recommend this to my friends that dont watch BLs because its just a good show.
