I told myself I wouldn't watch Stay With Me because it's a bromance and I wasn't gonna go down that dark road again. I proved to myself that I am not just a clown ; I am the whole circus.

We see how much Wu BI wants to get into his dream career, and we know accident will happen.
I think SuYu will eventually end up going into that career to fulfill WuBi’s dream because WuBI can’t do it after the accident. SuYu gives up on his own dream to achieve Wu Bi’s.
Also, modern twist of erstwhile compulsory military career forced upon WuBi by daddy who was military general.
Also, because most dramas need CEO and his money to logically fit economic luxury which (whether people realize it or not) is the hidden part of all happy ever afters in stories and romance novels.

A Swift And Fun Time
Before we begin, I did not read the novel nor did I watch the first tv adaption. And, I am not planning to do either of that any time soon.
So, regarding Stay with Me, I really appreciated how fast-paced this show was. Honestly speaking, I would have finished it earlier if not because I was not rushing to that last episode. For a drama like this, it's actually very dramatic and if not for the fast pace, I probably might not have enjoyed it as much as I did. Although (I know what I said), because of how much was happening in those 24 episodes, the drama did feel kind of rushed as well.
I understand the events in the last episode did happen in the novel too and in it, it was around the half way mark? However, this is probably an unpopular opinion but even if the events were actually the final chapter in the book, I don't hate it. Sure, I would like an ending where the two of them end up together living their lives happily but I've been hurt by sad BL drama endings before, at least the "state of Wu Bi" was ambiguous in this.
Moving on, Wu Bi's cousin. You know, I thought I would hate this character by the end of the show but I don't. Yes, his little bun is extremely infuriating (it plays no part in anything at all except annoy the hell out of me), and he needs serious help with his possessiveness if we have to label his issue. However, forgo those flaws, he really does love Wu Bi a lot and seriously, if you look at Wu Bi objectively, this boy makes it so hard for his family to love him. I don't know what will happen to the cousin if the second season gets made but I will not be mad if he has a redemption arc. I mean...if he doesn't have one, I am fine with that too.
Last but not the least, I am still very confused with how much I like Su Yu. I guess because I'm more of a Wu Bi person, Su Yu did piss me off a couple of times. Especially when being such a smart person, he's not very smart when it comes to Wu Bi. Like think about it, if he was smarter, he would have listened to Wu Bi's warnings about his family and never go for that appointment because come on, Wu Bi or his stepfather could very well help him find another doctor and make another appointment.
At the end of the day, as much as I have some issues with Stay with Me, ultimately, I still enjoyed watching the show. I've heard that a season 2 has been confirmed so now I guess we just need to pray nothing happens to stall and/or stop production.
Rating: ★★★☆☆ (3.5/5)
P.S.: If and when season 2 comes, we need more Han Bo Kuang scenes and because I do not know what's in the novel, I am just going to sit here and hope there's a Mao Chong-Bo Kuang pairing even if it's just bromance.

These boys are so close to actually talking about what they actually want/need, yet I suspect they are both too scared to verbalise it still. And it’s the fact that those around them are, to an extent, recognising what they are both too scared to tell each other. If this was just a ‘bromance’, if they wanted them to be perceived as brothers, I don’t think we would be seeing those around them react as they have.
They are both so young, so desperate for family, for stability, to be loved, that they are holding back asking for more, out of fear that doing so will topple a relationship that has been shaky from the start. Until they feel strong enough together, that outside forces aren’t a threat to what they are building, they are choosing to be each other’s anchor and protector.
