Red Balloon (2017)

 I wasn't sure if recommending Red Balloon, because it's very sad for most of the series, but I decided to do it since, at least, it was an HEA and indeed it's very emotional and well done. Xia Zhi Chen and Li Xiang Wan have the ordinary starstruck love story, Chen, a troubled guy with a dysfunctional family, and Wan, the gay boy becoming his roommate, and after a bit, something more. The social and family pressure is too much, and probably even with the wrong idea to protect Wan, Chen surrenders to the pressure and goes to the "right" path (but totally wrong for him) to marry and have children. Fast forward some years, it's not that Chen and Wan have a perfect life, but it's not bad. Only that their love is still there, stronger than ever. I liked how Chen managed the situation, behaving in a rational way, setting things straight (no pun intended) in his life, before going back to Wan. And yes, maybe someone would have wanted for Wan to be more hard to get, but guys, they were, and are, in love, and if your first love come back to you, I don't think I would be able to send him away. HEA. You can see it on GagaOOLala. Heat Level: 3/6.
