The Star Around The Sun

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Xia Xingcheng, with average acting skills and appearance, had been a small star in the entertainment industry for six years. But one day, a famous director invited him to act in a gay movie titled “Gradual Distance” with numerous award-winning movie emperor Yang Youming. In the movie, they had a sweet love; out of it, there was polite coldness. In the movie, they had a sad ending; out of it, there were ambiguous feelings. The contrast between what was in the movie and what was outside of it often made Xia Xingcheng unable to find himself. Because of Yang Youming’s guidance, he had stepped into the ranks of actors, but also because of Yang Youming, he couldn’t distinguish between what was reality and what wasn’t.

Xia Xingcheng didn’t expect that the movie would finally push him into the abyss of pain and happiness.

Omg that novel is so so good. I already read it twice. Just a month ago it was completely translated but now all links are gone 😥 such a pity I really liked it and even recommended my friend, when I came here to share link it was gone. I wonder what happened. I am sad it's really something one can read many times.

A very good take on internal and external conflict when realising one is gay + dealing with starting a new gay relationship + actors character-overflow (being unable to dissociate from their character). MC is a small actor going into film for the first time and ends up acting as a gay boy falling in love for the first time. He deals with the angst and feelings that came with the character, and in turn, fell in love with the male lead of the film, ML. There was an underlying angst... more>> through the first half of the novel and more, but once they got together, it was just dealing with the public, friends and family, which was much less issue and more fluffy. I particularly liked how the author portrayed how MC yoyos between his own thoughts and "his" (character he's acting) thoughts when interacting with ML initially. Not super angsty but the tension was a constant that makes you want to keep flipping. Highly recommend. (Film that they acted in was a thriller in the last parts tho, which I'm not a fan of). <<less

I read this one a long time ago but all I know is that I teared up in this one. The ages (age gap rather) of the characters is properly utilized in this one and the ML acts on his age to the point of aloofness. It is angsty but not excessive. This is one is a feel-good story for me because you cannot help but root for them.

My only complain is that I cannot find some extras. I want some extras about the continuation of their story or even a snippet of their every day life (!)

At first I don't understand why ML suddenly accept MC pursue when previously he seems avoiding the subject.

But all of it become clear once you read the extra. So please make sure to read the extra! It's on MC POV so it's really such a nice read.

Spoiler

During their first movie, the start of their romance story:

Xia Xingcheng was muddled, he’d fallen headlong.
Yang Youming, on the other hand, was completely sober as he slowly sank.

I totally adore the MC, no wonder our ML doting on him so much. Their progress feels nice.

The angst will make you cry. The romance will make you fall in love.

But just like what 1 reviewer here said, there are some uncomfortable homophobic portrayals of actual gays, so be mindful of that. I could skim through it without affecting me as a gay person because I've seen it in other BL novels as well. But if you're not desentisized to it yet, it will offend you.
