A catalogue to illustrate all the wrong reasons for having BL just for the sake of it?
Okay, 1st episode introduces a trio of main guys, who then walk in front of the camera in slow motion. And I don't like any of the 3? This never happened to me before while watching HIStory!:)I didn't like 'Make Our Days Count', but it was GREAT in compare to this. This is really bad... There are two guys who should be friends, there's no real spark between them, only a lots of stupid "humour", then we have two guys who should be family, one of them acts super meek though he should be the confident type as shown in his work life, one of them acts like a psycho stalker. There's stupid fujoshi girl who's all giddy to see boy on boy couples forming, not caring if they're clowns & creeps.
At episode 6, it gets even depressing... I felt so sorry for one of the guys. He was such a good big brother and he had to find out that in that respect, he was nursing a viper. The kid step-brother makes a move on him when he is drunk, just because his attraction to him is "love" in his warped mind, not caring that he actually broke his heart. Had he really loved him, he would not do that to him. I will not argue here whether brotherly love is more than lovers love, apparently to please the BL audience the lovers love took priority so that we could watch that bedscene.
Looks like this show was made with the purpose to serve as a catalogue to illustrate all the wrong reasons for having BL just for the sake of it.
If this is the way HIStory has progressed, then perhaps it would be better if it ended. Oh, wait. Next time (HIStory5), it's Sci-Fi, even? Great. That won't get Dropped by me. That's straight to Not Interested.

DISRESPECT TO LGBT COMMUNITY
Im a newbie when it comes being a bl fan. Im starting being a fan of bl just last year when ive watched Gaya sa Pelikula (Like in the movies) that bl drama was fantastic !!! Im a closeted gay for 10 years until now because i was born in a conservative christian nation so i cant easily open myself to my family, just only to my closest friends sadly. This my 1st BL drama ive rated with a low rating but to be honest im being generous here becoz atleast they made efforts in the music and production as well . For real i would rate zero for so many reasons:1. Rape
Yeah i get with Ye Xings brother that he loves he loves him so much since 10 years old but why would you do such a DIRTY and NASTY way youll get your older bother dunk and get fucked him so bad without even a CONSENT with him THIS SO FCKING DISRESPECTFUL. If im his younger brother i would just confess him that i like him more than being brothers and i will pursue him in a ROMANTIC WAY just like me back even though its an unrequited love not drugged him or drunk him like that and then rape him. ALSO he FCKING RECORDED HIM WHEN THEY ARE DOING SEX and show it to his PARENTS LIKE WTF who would do such a dumb think just to say i did that becoz blah blah blah HELL NAH ???? ARE YOU FCKING KIDDING THOS THE WORST HISTORY series ive ever watched in my entire life. I regret watching it fcked !!!!
2. QUEER FCKING BAITING
Im tired of BL dramas and also other dramas that are using third sexuality just to get ther attention to that person they love(straight romance ) or just make fun of it. ITS NOT FCKING FUNNY and i dont like it. Why would XLC pretend to be gay just to be close for his first love LIKE WTF ARE YOU KIDDING ME HELLO??? ITS 2021 ALREADY we are trying to represent the PERFECT REPRESENTATION OF LGBT HERE not make fun of it YIKES!!!!
3. BAD ACTING AND WORST PLOTLINE
The actors i admit are very good looking but that doesnt mean they are really good at acting NO HELL NAH WORST than any other bl dramas out there, its like those straight bl actors like they are forcing themselves to become gay and have chemistry to each other its fcking FAKE AND RUSHED and the STORYLINE ITSELF IS TRASH this drama should have not been released or should have been put in the drafts tskkkk. Its getting on my nerves!!!!
Atleast the OST and music here is good yess please !!! Thank god Taiwan released "We best Love" its still one of the BEST BL DRAMAS THIS YEAR!!!! Im really dissapointed with this bl series its not my cup of tea to watch and ots really painful and gutted tskkk. I regret watching it!!! PLEASE DONT WATCH IT IF YOUR NOT MATURED ENOUGH!!!! 18+++++++++++++ only

NICE STORY AND SUPER NICE ACTING
I am surprised to find so many negative reviews of shocked people who are part of this BL world... It's like listening to religious fundamentalists ... Stepbrothers have nothing to do with their parents love life. One day, they move with their Mom/Dad to their step-dad/mom. They have nothing to do with this new step-family. There are no common genes ... so what's the fuss about that??? Obviously this is a new theme in the BL dramas (the wonderful Addicted, the so-so Brothers, etc ...). If I had been Fu Yong Jie I would have been at Ye Xing Si's feet. He is so damn cute!All he actors are handsome and good, especially Charles Tu (Xiao Li Cheng): he is so lively, so funny and SO charming...
I have still some episodes to watch but so far this series is excellent.

Rendez-vous directement à HIStory5, ne passez pas par la case HIStory4...
J'ai conscience de perdre mon temps avec cet avis. Il suffit de voir les notes de MDL et les retours de certaines personnes. Pourtant, je ne peux pas simplement m'asseoir et ignorer la merde malsaine véhiculée par H4. Je ne vais pas y mettre les formes non plus. Après tout, je ne peux pas mettre plus de 1.- Le fan service.
Lovely Writer avait abordé le sujet sous un angle intéressant, mais ici, c'est tellement gênant. On suit une personne qui dépasse complètement les limites morales afin de satisfaire son fantasme infondé. C'est de la folie.
- Le stalking.
Non, stalker quelqu'un ce n'est ni « trop beau », ni « trop romantique » et encore moins « normal », peu importe la relation dans laquelle vous êtes. Le stalking, c'est le fait d'épier quelqu'un. Ce n'est pas saint ! Il ne faut pas confondre celui/celle qui va regarder ce que fait son/sa crush de temps en temps et celui/celle qui traque chaque fait et geste d'une personne.
Le plus délirant sur ce point reste le fait que j'ai vu des gens s'offusquer de cette pratique dans des dramas hétéros, mais trouver ça acceptable dans H4. Hé ! Ce n'est pas parce que ce sont deux gars que tout est permis.
- L'alcool.
Ce bon vieux pote. C'est l'excuse de tous les mots et faits toxiques d'un drama (et pas seulement dans H4). Chaque fois, l'alcool devient l'excuse parfaite pour se rapprocher de quelqu'un, faire une confession ou agir comme un moins que rien et être pardonné par la suite. C'est le parfait rebondissement pour les prises de conscience des personnages. À croire qu'aujourd'hui, pour être entier et honnête, il faut avoir bu. C'est triste.
- Tentative de viol et viol.
Je ne vais pas sortir les définitions, mais je pense qu'on sait tous et toutes ce que cela veut dire. Que ce soit fictif ou non (d'ailleurs, le refrain « c'est fictif » il faut arrêter, hein), le viol ne devrait jamais être accepté ou normalisé. Cela devrait encore moins devenir une excuse pour se rapprocher de quelqu'un et aboutir à une relation. Avoir une relation intime avec une personne incapable de donner clairement son consentement est un abus sexuel. Faut vraiment pas être net pour tolérer ce genre de connerie.
Je trouve ça tellement ahurissant de lire des commentaires sur le fait qu'on devrait ignorer certaines parties de l'intrigue sous prétexte que l'autre couple est bon. Ou de voir des comparaissons entre un couple toxique et une agression sexuelle.
Réveillez-vous ! Y'a rien de romantique, saint ou normal là-dedans.
Je n'ai pas le courage de répondre aux quelques personnes qui disaient que de toute façon ce genre de dramas sont écrits « par des femmes hétéros pour des femmes hétéros » parce qu'il s'agit d'un des pires arguments. Peu importe qui vous êtes. Le genre et la sexualité n'ont aucun fichu lien avec le fait de tolérer le ramassis de saletés qu'est H4.
Je ne comprends pas comment un tel scénario est passé. Peut-être parce que le seul HIStory om Lin Pei Yu est absente est celui-ci ? Je comprends encore moins les acteurs qui ont signé pour ça !
Pour moi, H4 est ce qui se fait de pire dans le BL. C'est une production irrespectueuse envers toutes les personnes représentées, dont le téléspectateur qui voit une licence massacrée par des fantasmes tordus, immoraux et illégaux.
Dites, à quel moment sommes-nous tombés si bas pour tolérer ça ?

R*pe romanticization in 2021? Say it ain't so!
I decided to drop this show after episode 6, with the r*pe. I did check reviews and comments afterwards to see how the show handles it, and it's exactly the way I would not want to watch. I'm quite surprised because the previous History series have been pretty good. This, though--what the hell were they thinking? I think if there had ever been the possibility of a History series without a happy ending, this should have been it.Having watched a ton of LGBT+ media (especially the older ones lol) and BL shows, I'm no stranger to darker themes. But the stories we tell and consume are evolving along with our society. This feels like a wasted opportunity, and a pity since I actually thought the main actors were well-cast with the exception of Yong Jie.

Supposed to watch this awhile but keep turning off because of the reviews and keeping seeing he was raped so it turned me off but glad I actually finally did. This was really good. The first couple had me lolh they was just ridiculous but I loved them . Something about Xingsi just got to me from the starting. He was so calm and peaceful. Now the situation with his brother there was no Raped like everyone was saying. How his adopted brother went about it was wrong because he was intoxicated but they actually talk where he said I love u and he replied same. The way he went about it he was fireball wrong, and also in episode 19 when he said the other guy was going to sleep with the colleague for him had me side eyeing that fucker cause it wasn't so but I enjoy it. On to together with me. Last of my list Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Xiao Licheng & TengTeng relationship is relatable with me
I watch lot of BL, of course my fav so far is MDZS and Guardian.Just want to write a review here because i kinda not satisfied with the comments. For me this series is not like all bad. Just want to clarify that the main CP here is TengTeng & Licheng. The other CP for me is bad too pfft,, but i will just ignore the second CP.
Things that I like on this series.
-Dialogue is hella funny (for me at least)
-TengTeng actor is so beautiful, skinny, handsome like a prince. oof-
-TengTeng & Licheng have a lot of awkward moments but the way they interact is make me feel weirdly funny LMAO
- Best dialogue for me is when TengTeng & Licheng confession scene, TengTeng said he dont want to be a mistress LMAO. He is the one who like really wants to be the TOP right.??
- I really like Licheng & TengTeng relationship development. Pretty relatable with me & my boyfriend UWAAA T-T
-When TengTeng & Licheng date scene, you know when Licheng wanna hug him in the public, then TengTeng resist because he feel insecure when people looking. Damn that feeling. Its kinda weird but, I really like that one. CUTE
- The smut scene (TengTeng & Licheng) is so satisfying ehem >//////<
- I really like Licheng personality yeah
-Music is really on point & also really good.
Things that I think need more improvement
-Maybe the series is kinda like suddenly happpen that, & suddenly happen that one uwu
-The scene when Yongjie punch TengTeng looks freaking weak but the impact HAHAHAH. yeah need to improve the punch scene. more realistic mannnn
-Yongjie looks like hacker at the beginning & suddenly become a psychotic crybaby & a mixologist & a medical student. huh....-,-
-Maybe the screentime for the second couple should be lessen because i actually thought that TengTeng & Licheng is the second CP at the beginning.
-Yongjie personality could be enhance. If he's psychotic, make him really psycho. Who willing to kidnapped a person, or tied his brother under the basement like yandere simulator LMAO because for me he's psycho like halfaway, & suddenly be a good boy. + he dont have any split personality disease, you know what i mean?
- The scene when TengTeng wants to frame the vice president is kinda cliffhanger, after Licheng come & take TengTeng, then what happen to the vice president? Like he's just lie down there????? HAHAHAH
Overall for me the series is not THAT BAD. It is suitable for the one who not expect too much. Or the one who just wanna chill & watch during freetime. If all BL have heavy plot, my brain gonna explode woo. so this one make me feel distress a little bit. Anyway, this is all from my preference. Peace no war. ^^v

Not for the faint hearted
I discovered BL at a relatively late point in life (one of the reasons being probably that the genre did not even exist when I was younger). What fascinates me is that the stories generally revolve around emotions and not just the clichéd Hollywood coming-out stories, which I find boring. To my delight, in the past few years, the genre has evolved to not just puppy love, but also includes adults going through everyday life. Probably, herein lies the charm of all HIStory seasons. Additionally, being european, romantically involved with an Asian for many years now, I feel like I am gaining some more insight into how Asians feel and act (clearly over-romanticized, but still), which I obviously couldn't not understand (at least not to this extent).Having said this, let me come to the actual review. As is typical for HIStory, two stories are being told in parallel, the one of two colleagues and one of two stepbrothers. I really enjoyed the one, in which two grown up men realize for the first time their feelings for each other, and, although confident about themselves, they have to deal with them in an unprecedented for them manner. It is not a coming-out story, it has nothing to do with opening up to parents - it is the struggle to categorize one's own feelings and decide what to do with them. The acting from both characters is very convincing, and as a viewer I was taken along their journey (even reminding me of some instants of my own past). So far so good, for this half I would easily give out a 9/10.
The second story, however, left me angry, dissatisfied, and worst of all, quite disturbed. I have watched stepbrother affairs, but usually, it is about youngsters, who when they become stepbrothers they start to fall for each other. This I can accept (although it is probably a very difficult situation). However, when two stepbrothers grow up together, they call the other's parent mom and dad, respectively, for years, the situation changes. Even thought they are not biologically related, they still have lived for years as a family, which in my eyes makes them real brothers, hence I see their affair as truly incestuous, which I admit disturbs me a lot. Furthermore, several details of their story becomes both unbelievable and weird (for instance how they interact with their parents, and how their affair is finally accepted, since this is the only way presumably for the couple to live together). Last but not least, I find their acting not en par with the first story (I may of course be biased by the story too).
So, mostly I watched only one part, fast-forwarding the other one. Perhaps due to my age, I am still to conservative for it.

Second couple is worth it
I initially dropped the series because of the brothers. I started seeing buzz about the second couple and that brought me back. I'm glad it did because I love their story. Teng Muren is just lovely to look at too. Friends to lovers is always an interesting arc. I also loved being able to catch up with the MODC couple. What a sweet ending. So....the brothers are hard to stomach, especially the mom. I'm not even going to try to understand why anyone thought that was a good storyline. Watch it for the second couple. Their relationship is sweet and funny.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Not reccommend as there is trigger warning!
A roller coaster series! Indeed it is a history series. This kind of story might be cliche but I like this story.This drama is disturbing but it is a great drama. It tells a story and lessons.
At first I don't like the story. Yongjie is so crazy and obssesive with his own brother. A brother will always be a brother. I know that they aren't blood related but still by law and papers they are brother. I do understand why the father had a hard time to accept it. It wasn't really easy. Understand the father/parent side. The crazy mother who tolerates his own son to be manipulative and rapist! What a trash! You let your son do that to your son! Are you really a mother? That was so disturbing and traumatic. Yongjie is a rapist. Rape is rape. It was not good that he did it. He does that to manipulate his own brother. That was not love. I don't know but I really don't like their story even Yongjie tells his reason why he love his own brother. There are two rapes happened here in the drama and both of that are not okay. Don't defend Yongjie for his trash attitude. He's a stalker too! Creepy man! Love shall not be forced. I know he really didn't force but he raped him. I do accept there relationship as love comes in different ways. Love is complicated. Even so there are other ways for you to be together. They started being together or having fling because of Yongjie raped him. What if it is not okay for Xing Si? Imagine how traumatic it will be! I like Yongjie character as he is brave and willing to do anything for love. But you know Yongjie are not the only man in this world who can fight his love for Xing Si. I feel like Xing Si deserve someone more.
I finished this drama because of Muren and Licheng. Muren had a hard time to accept it. I know it is bad to use someone's feeling. He is straight that suddenly like/love a boy ofcourse he will panic and want to prove it to himself that he is wrong. Accepting that you like the same sex with you isn't easy for everyone.
Licheng and Muren fighting who will be 1 and 0. Being in a Gay or Man to Man relationship is not always 1 and 0, it can be 1 and 1. I do hope that all of BL lovers out there will know the fact that BL are not like a heterosexual relationship that there should be a girl who are always the reciever and the boy who are the giver. BL/Gay/ Man to man relationship can be versatile.

Face Hurts Now
Looking for sexual content? LOOK NO FURTHER! Looking for cute fluffiness? STOP HERE! Looking for everything that makes the HIStory series HIStory? WELCOME HOME!For starters, WATCH MODC BEFORE COMING HERE! You can't truly appreciate this series until then(but you don't have too). Anyway, this isn't my favourite HIStory series but totally worth the watch! As a major BL fan it's no surprise I'm here and ecstatic about everything from beginning to ( definitely) the end. I gotta say I didn't think this was too cliché or tacky but obviously being a BL it's gonna give you some basic moments. Fortunately, not enough to over shadow the story. Visuals all around and I fan girl screamed so hard at so many parts my face hurts lol I wouldn't recommend to a BL newbie but make sure they have it on their plan to watch list.
Enjoy...
P.S. The only thing that could've made the ending better was ALL the MC's for HIStory...

Disappointing...
I had a lot of problems with this drama and most of them were because of the story.First, the development between TengTeng and Licheng was very poorly done. The friendship at the beginning was great but everything went downhill from there. Licheng fell in love and immediately began to act without giving TengTeng any time to think things through. I had major problems with how Licheng made major decisions without consulting his other half-like buying a house. TengTeng will also have to live in that house for the rest of his life but he never got a chance to choose and only got consulted after it had been bought and he had to help carry a 30-years mortgage. This isn't how a relationship should be.
Xingsi and Yongjie were a better couple in my books. Yongjie's personality is very excessive and the relationship didn't start well but the development was better than TengCheng. The stepmother was a gem and the father was a well-thought-out character.
The worst thing about the show was the rotten girls. Fangirling should be kept to fictional characters or stars but it shouldn't be done so excessively with regards to the people around you. After all, there is a difference between life and fiction. The drama failed to draw that line and treated the TengCheng relationship as too much of a joke.
Overall, I liked that the actors were quite good looking especially Teng Muren but the story was disappointing.
