My Golden Blood

My Golden Blood tells the story of Tong, a 20-year-old who believes he has hemophilia, but in truth, possesses a rare and powerful golden blood, irresistible to vampires. While Mark is a 200-year-old vampire assigned to protect and care for Tong.

I thoroughly enjoyed the first half of the series, it was engaging and well-paced. However, the rest of the episodes became somewhat uneven. Some scenes dragged, while others remained captivating enough to keep me watching. What really held my interest was the curiosity about how things would unfold. The pacing overall was decent, especially in terms of the characters realizing their feelings; it didn't feel overly drawn out.

The romance between Mark and Tong felt natural, with undeniable chemistry between them. Their kisses and intimate scenes were realistic and never felt forced. The acting was solid across the board. Joss was perfectly cast as Mark: handsome, sexy, mysterious, and stoic. He absolutely understood the assignment. Fluke, as Tong, embodied the role of a naive, kind-hearted, and cheerful young man with sincerity and warmth.

As for the twist involving Thara, I saw it coming. She gave off shady vibes from the beginning, so her reveal as the villain wasn't surprising.

Supporting Characters:

Tonkla - Tong's best friend, almost like a brother. He's supportive and protective, though initially unaware of Tong's blood and the vampire world. Eventually, his close bond with Tong pulls him into the chaos, adding another emotional layer to the story.

Nakan - A 250-year-old vampire and Mark's relative. Striking, charismatic and powerful, he initially comes off as a manipulative antagonist, especially through his control over Tonkla. But later, he sides with Mark and Tong, revealing deeper motives. His desire to take down Thara stems from a personal vendetta, she killed his best friend, who also had golden blood.

Thara - The authoritative leader of the vampires. She's manipulative, deceptive, and ultimately driven by greed. While she hides behind a calm, commanding facade, her obsession with golden blood and using it for her own gain, especially as a cure when she's sick exposes her true nature.

Technical Aspects:

The cinematography was visually appealing, with atmospheric tones that suited the vampire theme well. The OST deserves special praise, absolutely chef's kiss. The music enhanced the emotional beats of the story beautifully. Kudos to the team for creating such memorable tracks.

Final Thoughts:

The series started strong with a promising premise and solid emotional core. However, the latter half suffered from weaker writing. Some scenes felt like filler and there were noticeable plot holes that could have been tightened up. That said, I still enjoyed My Golden Blood for what it was, a supernatural romance with intriguing characters, good chemistry, and standout performances. It's not perfect, but it's definitely worth a watch, especially for fans of the vampire BL genre.

Watch it... All I can say is that, I now wake up on a Monday and wish it was Wednesday... Not Thursday or Friday... No... Wednesday!!!!

Anyone who tells you not to bother, please ignore them and make up your own mind... I've noticed a lot of different flavored fans and for the most part, everyone is in agreement - GMMTV has hit Gold!!!! You'll only miss out if you listen to the haters... You can only Love Joss and Gawin!!!

Not since #BillyBabe have I been so engulfed in a BL couple or felt the emotional evocation required to be at level, but Joss and Gawin are not just the new couple this year. Like #BillyBabe, they ARE This Year!!!!

Long Live #JossGawin

#My Golden Blood!!!

#JossGawin Forever!!!!

#MarkTong Forever!!!!

It's my first BL in so many years, and oh my god, I loved it! I loved everything-their chemistry, the characters, everything!😆✨.

I enjoyed each and every episode the moment between mark and tong and I'm not kidding when I say it is a good series far more better than I expected it to be.

Highly recommended, watching them gave me butterflies in my stomach, they were both chaotic and lovely couple, they really did a good job

And the graphic of vampires wasn't that bad either And I really enjoyed watching both the actors working together hope they are going to keep working together coz their chemistry is no joke.

First of all, I've watched all the BLs that are currently trending on Twitter, and this one is by far my absolute favorite. My heart has been broken too many times by other dramas.

This drama is pure comfort: beautiful to watch - and that goes especially for the two main actors and the scenic settings. Forget about bloody, monstrous vampire dramas: here, the focus is more on feeling rather than feeding. It's absolutely beautiful to witness how Mark and Tong dive into this profound, almost classically romantic relationship.

There's just the right amount of drama to keep things from getting boring. But then you quickly get to watch Joss and Gawin as they grow to trust each other more and more, and the love between these two men - who clearly share a strong bond even in real life - flows into Tong and Mark so naturally that it doesn't even feel like a series anymore, but something truly real.

It's a wonderful experience to have the honor of witnessing every Wednesday. I love it. It's almost overwhelming for me. May it become hugely successful!

My Golden Blood isn't the kind of series that'll blow your mind, but it's still a fun ride if you don't go in expecting too much. The overall plot is pretty easy to predict, and it follows the usual bl formula without many risks. That said, I really liked the core idea behind the series. Still, there were a few moments that caught me off guard in a good way, which kept me watching.

What truly stood out and, honestly, what made the experience unforgettable was the special effects editing in the first and final episodes. I'm talking next level, low budget, green screen fever dream energy. It was so unexpected and over the top that it became a highlight in its own it was so bad it was perfect.

It might not be flawless, but it's definitely worth watching ,just don't go in expecting anything groundbreaking. It's a pretty standard, predictable series, but the main couple had decent chemistry and carried the story well. If you're in the mood for something simple with a few moments that don't go exactly how you'd expect, My Golden Blood delivers just that.
