Best Bl ever

4 years of being a bl series fan, and I can assure you that this series was the best one I've ever consumed time for.
I'll make it brief, starting from the story, it is such a creative one but it wouldn't have been that amazing if it's not for the actors, the quality of production, the focus on details but mainly on the actors, they made a great job, I'm shocked on their performance.
kinn-Porsche actors, they had great chemistry, it felt so real when watching them, the facial expression, the tears when they had to drop them, the infinite kisses the bed scenes or even the pool scene, they were just incredible to the point you may believe that they're truly a real-world couple, from ep1 to ep 14 there's no moment I said no they did it wrong on this part, it was brilliant.
Pete-Vegas, the storyline between the two is just crazy though it started till episode 9 if I remember clearly, from my point of view the emotions they brought life to the show cannot be described, and if u asked me what's your favorite scenes from the drama it would most of them be from Pete-vegas parts, I laughed and cried badly for its scenes.
Kim-Chay had cute scenes, but i was expecting a cute ending for them because Kim apologizes for much and protected him many times as well so I think he deserves to be forgiven for his mistake but guesses that was an open ending for them.
Overall, the drama deserves a 10, and i can assure that i never watched a better bl series, and if i ever i did I'll come to edit my review however I'm sure that won't happen any soon, those are the legendary ones that cones once in years.

EPIC! Can we say worth every second…!

This series! This series! Can we say worth every second waiting for Saturday to roll around. Worth every moment I’ve watched and rewatched. Worth every praise and accolades I’ve bestowed upon it! Worth every fan the cast garners. Worth every award they are sure to win in the future. What a dream team blessed with awesome writing and legendary directing and editing! I cannot praise this show enough. Please for the love of all the love in the universe give me MORE. I beg of you… bring back this team for a season 2 PLEASE!!! The finale wrapped everything up nicely but still left me questioning, guessing, suspecting. There is still so much left unanswered on Daddy Korn, and mama Nampheung’s part. That last line from daddy, and the last scene of mama told so much yet not enough! There has to be more to the story. I just know it. I want a whole series of Vegas/Pete, Kim/Chay living their best live together. I want to see Tankhun having a love interest. I want to see Kinn/Porsche in the next stage of coupledom. How Porsche handles being a boss now. Everything! I want everything! I’ll wait another 2 years for it to be done right! Just Please give me more of the amazing cast and production team. You all deserve every good thing coming your way from this project. The emotions y’all have drawn from me with every episode especially this finale is groundbreaking! Well done.
P.s. Erika is a BOSS! Why didn’t I see more of her badassery before today!?

ALL THE WAITING WAS WORTH IT

Everything is just so perfect with this drama, the storyline, production, actors, acting, effects, and OST. All the waiting I had before Kinnporsche was officially aired was just worth it. The actors were chosen so well as their acting is so natural. Mile and Apo suit the main character's vibe and they really complement each other both off and on cam. I'm really hoping for Season 2 with the same actors portraying the characters even though the drama hasn't ended yet because I don't how I could survive after thisssss. So much looooove.

Okay wow!! Just... WOW!!

I generally am very picky about writing reviews for shows but here's the series that's holding me gunpoint to do it :D .

This was beyond my expectations! I love love loved it! I've not been so hooked to a drama in ages. This was a masterpiece. 

Definitely lots of trigger warnings (sexual assault, drug abuse, nudity, torture, asphyxiation, violence, gore, mutilation, electrocution, I might have missed a few... I now see why this series is not on YouTube) but everything aside, I loved this show for being so freaking gripping. I was controlling myself so hard not to binge-watch the entire series.

Favourite character(s): Porsche (I just adored this adorable, witty, pervert who attracts trouble everywhere), Porchay & Kim (damn Jeff Satur, you have my heart you sexy beast!), Pete (dude here's my 21-gun salute for the brilliant acting. My heart breaks at what this character went through). Not adding Kinn because the hell's wrong with your eyebrows bruh! Naah, just kidding (not really... you need a good trim :D ). Warning: none of the characters are black and white. But I've overlooked the problematic aspects (in character's behaviour. Not the drama) for now and focused on the overall character development which was done brilliantly.

Favourite moment: Porsche's rib breaking embrace and lip-breaking kiss to Kinn when Kinn asks him to go live his dream of house at the beach. Kim crying for Porchay. Pete traumatised and tortured by Vegas in the bathtub. All drunk-Porsche's scenes (did I mention he's adorable?).

Special mention: Tankhun. This guy... I don't have words for Tong's character. He seems like he's there for just comedic relief but no... he goes way way wayyy deeper than that.

Parts that annoyed me: Ken and Big's ending. They deserved better than the 10-second death exit they got! Even Pete's death got more empathy and ritual and he didn't even die!
And that blast... (what the hell was that! Kinn: "Are you okay?" Is he okay? He's not got a freakin' dust particle on him buddy! What was that even! ).
Also, why was Big in sling for weeks and Porsche's gunshot wound healed after one-night of partying? My acne stays longer that Porsche's gunshot wound.
Why/how Tawan got back again? Wasn't he shot by Kinn?

Music: work-of-art. The music took the whole series to another level.

Screenplay: when it comes to screenplay, I always go back to the scene where Vegas opens the truck compartment and the team jumps out to fry up the enemy... In short, chef's kiss.

Production: you can see 5-star mansions, BMW's, expensive tux, whiskey, pool, spa, guns and hot guys... so yeah, production's off the roof I guess. 

I'm one-hundred percent gonna miss this drama so badly! If they come up with second season, my soul will leave my body and float away happily...

Honestly what even-

Honestly I was super excited and super disappointed by this show. I really loved History3: Trapped and heard really good stuff about this so went into it was a positive attitude; boy was I wrong.

This show is basically like Tharntype, but this time the rape scenes and emotional abuse are done using a power dynamic so toxic the IAEA should be investigating them. No amount of trigger warnings could have prepared me for some of the abhorrent scenes shown, that are treated often as nothing more than a joke or a means to an end.

This show is a spit in the face to victims (especially queer victims) of abuse; be it emotional, physical or sexual. The lack of care the writers and directors took with these really traumatic scenes, and how they ever made it to the final cut is baffling to me. Since I started watching I also heard rumours about the behind the scenes of this show which is just.... wow.

Plot What Plot? Porn Without Plot

I mean no offense to the fans, but how is this the best BL series ever made? Just how? Is it because of the relatively high-quality cinematography, the fancy suits, cars, and houses, and the hot guys’ doing "sexy" [non-consensual] stuff? I am sorry, but all of this, even if it was a hundred times fancier, will never outweigh a well-written storyline like the ones of classics such as SOTUS, He's Coming to Me, Theory of Love etc., which convey the beautiful essence of BL. Shame on the production team for advertising this as a BL series, when it has virtually nothing to do with the genre. BL does not equal gay porn and hopefully never will.

I dropped this series after episode five because it was becoming disgustingly intolerable. The moment I saw Kinn rape Porsche while the latter was drugged I knew that this series is not for me – and judging by other reviews, there are worse things coming in the next episodes, including incest and more rape.

Episode one was interesting. After that, though, I could not understand if the production team had a mafia story, a dumb comedy, or just kinky porn in mind. I saw a lot of people praise Bible's acting. There were not many scenes with him in the initial episodes, so I cannot tell about him, but Mile and Apo were mediocre. In the lead actors’ defence, though, their characters are horrible people who behave illogically – no wonder they had trouble relating to them and portraying them. I liked Jeff Satur's acting and character. I was planning to continue the series because I was curious about him. However, the rape scene, which the script excused and romanticized, turned me off completely. There simply is not, and will never be, a scenario in which rape is sexy.

Although I liked Freefall, this song and the other OSTs are also just not it. Jeff Satur has a lovely voice, but his songs do not suit the vibe of a mafia series. They would have fitted a romance drama way better.

Visually pleasing actors and BL tropes thrown here and there cannot save a series that is literally the epitome of the Plot What Plot? Porn Without Plot tag on AO3. If this sets the standard for future BL series, I will stop being a fan of BL.

Edit: I forgot to discuss Tankhun. Knowing what happened to him in the past, I did not find his antics funny. I was actually disturbed that a character with serious childhood trauma was used for comedic relief. He is the survivor of a kidnapping. Making fun of such things should not be normalized. Shame on the production team for doing so.

I would also like to address the claims of some reviewers that since this series has a mafia concept, the fetishizing of rape and everything else that I find disturbing about this story is permissible.
First, this is not a mafia series. This is a soap opera thinly disguised as a mafia series. The mafia concept is highly underdeveloped and unrealistic.
Second, I encourage the apologists of this series to watch actual mafia movies. I recommend Casino, The Godfather, Goodfellas, The Irishman – they are considered four of the greatest movies in this genre. They are way darker than this series, which looks like a ridiculous fanfic compared to them. There is so much violence in them. There are toxic relationships, between couples, friends, and family. There is sex. They depict the world of the mafia in graphic details. However, not one of them is fetishizing non-consensual sexual activities, incest, or anything else of this kind. Bad actions and bad people are not excused. Their toxic relationships are not romanticized. If you watch even one of them, you will not think of calling this series a mafia one anymore. You will see it for what it is – a badly written kink fanfic.
Third, this series was marketed as BL. However, it deals with serious topics in a way that is not suitable for a substantial part of the usual BL target audience, which includes minors. Exposing minors to ideas like the ones promoted in this series – rape can be sexy, toxic relationships can be romantic etc. – is wrong. I thought that filmmakers were past the 50 Shades of Gray kind of "romance", but apparently not.

Worth a Rewatch

Suspend reality and let yourself soar.

I had started this a couple years ago when it first came out, but never got to finish it. Going back now to watch it, the series stuck with me even in the first 6 episodes because I remembered so much, which to me is always a good sign.

I don't typically care much about music in a drama, but I actually really enjoyed it here. There was intensity when it needed to be there, and softness in other points. The music set the tone in a way that often doesn't happen for me. And of course, I love an over-the-top storyline, and can you really get more over the top than a messy family and the mafia?

But truthfully, what really sold this show for me was the support characters. Yes, the main couples and actors were lovely, but the supports just added so much to the show. Chan, the head bodyguard, despite having very little context or story, still gave such a strong character that I felt a connection to him. Then you have Boss, who I initially had a strong dislike for (as they wanted me to, I'm sure), but the character redemption was fabulous. Pair that with other characters such as Erika, Tankhun, and Arm. The cast created such a special story that made it worth so much more for me than just the title couple. And while I am considering Vegas a main, he isn't listed as such, but the way they took you on a rollercoaster with him was wild. He wins for most traumatized character by far, even without them showing you everything (which doesn't excuse his actions, mind you).

Finally, I have to give a mention to the final episode. The series had action sprinkled throughout, but then episode 14 hit and you got punched in the face with it and I loved that. It was everything it needed to be, except I am in agony over going back and forth about Korn.

Needless to say, enjoyable and one I would rewatch again.

A Rewatch

I’ll say this, the series was amazing but of course there’s many storyline/scenes in this series where i think we can agree aren’t okay. Besides that, i think you can appreciate the series for what it is, while also pointing out the wrong that’s done.
I really wasn't set on a favorite character, at first it was Pete but in the end it came to be him and Vegas. While their relationship is…let’s say all over the place to put it nicely, they really do understand each other from what they’ve both been through.
Aside from the storyline, the music had me really pulled in. Everyone who worked on this music did so well and i feel it really got the feelings across whenever it was played.

POR DIOS!! QUE CLASE DE PLACER CULPOSO ES ESTA MIERDA?!

Reseña KinnPorsche:

Puntuación: 7.0¿?

°Elenco/Actuación: La mayoría de actores en la serie estuvieron muy bien, sinceramente me sorprendió con la naturalidad que se desenvolvian, Bibble (Vegas) estaba interpretando su primer papel y fue muy bueno. Algunas veces cuando tenían que hablar en inglés se notaba algo forzado, como es el el caso de Kinn el cual dejaba que desear, aún así hicieron su mejor esfuerzo y se aprecia. Mi única queja real es porque eligieron a tan horrible actor con acento italiano? Sinceramente creo disfrute tanto su muerte porque sabía que jamás lo volvería a escuchar. El Cast es SUPER LINDO, gran parte de mi cariño culposo a esta serie es por ellos, eligieron muy bien a cada uno, lit me creo que físicamente el Sr. Korn es padre de Kinn y que Porsche y Porchay son hermanos y la dinámica fuera de la serie es muy piola, además de que EN MI OPINIÓN todas la parejas tenían tremenda química, fuera de joda, esto será muchas cosas, pero eligieron actores que con la tensión sexual que emanan tengas ganas de golpear una pared. En fin que buen elenco jsjj

°Música: Con la música tengo sentimientos encontrados, porque me parece de las mejores cosas de la serie, por dios, esa intro es MUY buena y como la introducen a forma de melodia transmite mucho, también la canción que canta Jeff (Kim) es cute. Aún así, me hubiera gustado que implementaran más soundtrack, siento que a veces se hacía algo repetitivo, o sino que a veces simplemente estaban teniendo una charla seria y empezaba ya la canción y era de "ke?". Pero en fin, fuera de eso, me gusto la música.

°Producción: A ver, esta serie está mejor grabada que mushisimas otras que he visto, se nota que le pusieron empeño y no les importo gastar en presupuesto, las paletas de colores en distintas escenas estaban dentro de todo bien implementadas y las escenas con drones eran buenas. En cuanto al menejo de la camara, en varias escenas estaba bien (Ej: En el Cap 1,cuando nos muestran el paralelismo entre Kinn y Porsche, En el cap 6, cuando enfocan que Kinn y Porsche quedaron tomaron de las manos después de encontrar agua, en el cap 11, cuando Vegas le da las pastilla en la boca a Pete, o en el cap 13, cuando le apuntan con un arma al Sr. Korn y después nos muestran que es Porsche), pero habian otras escenas como las de acción donde decía "PORQUE CARAJO SE MUEVE TANTO LA CÁMARA?" Entiendo que era para generar ansiedad y tensión, pero mi ansiedad se debía a que tenía que mirar para todos lados intentando ver que pasaba, agregando algo con las escenas de acción, varias estaban decentes, sin contar que la sangre o la forma en la morían era exagerado, menos a veces es más. Sobre las escenas hot, la mayoría están muy bien hechas, realmente lograban captar las ganas que se tenían los personajes, aunque la escena del cap 7 de Kinn-Porsche en el baño es rara, media fea en cierto punto, la escena de Vegas-Pete hubiera quedado mejor si mostraban un poco más de BDSM, ya que es un poco su esencia y sacaran un poco la música para mostrar más la crudeza de la situación, pero en sí la escena estuvo bien. Los momentos románticos los sentía naturales, siento que sea como sea la historia estaban bien retratados por lo general. También, me gusta que varios gestos de los personajes se mantiene a medida que pasan los capítulos.

°Historia: OK, la historia tiene muchas inconsistencias, sin contar que es muy floja, llega un punto en el que se olvidan que también es una serie de mafia y sólo vuelven al traer el tema cuando les conviene, sin contar de que lit me sentí en un montaña rusa, ya que empezó algo lento, luego fue volviéndose más interesante, luego interesante pero sin historia, luego de repente traen de vuelta el misterio y al final te quedas de "Ke?", hay muchas cosas que me gustaría que se hubieran profundizado más (Ej: La guerra entre la familia menor y la mayor, la convivencia de la familia menor individualmente, la relación de hermanos entre - Kinn-Takhun-Kim ya que literal Kim no está nunca con ellos, a personajes como Big o Ken, ya que fueron de cierto modo fundamentales para la trama, etc)de todos modos, aunque fuera de forma básica, fue agradable que me pusieran pequeñas pistas de algunas cosas y que después cobrarán sentido (Ej: En el cap 1, cuando el Sr. Korn dice "Ahora todas las piezas están juntas" o en el cap 6, cuando Porsche dice que su tío le contó lo del accidente de sus papas y más tarde el tío nos dice que el había mentido) . En cuanto a las relaciones hay que decir que son todas HIPER MEGA TÓXICAS, llegandose a romantizar el abuso sexual, secuestro, en cierto punto la violacion, el maltrato físico y sobre todo psicológico, algunas veces te ponían música o algún otro indicio como diciendo "Che, esto está mal" pero después siguen como si nada, sin ninguna consecuencia o pidiendo disculpas pero de una forma muy sosa. En cuestión de desarrollo en las relaciones: *Kinn y Porsche, empezaron algo apresurados, pero a pesar del vínculo super insano que llevaban, se ve progreso en su relación, pero MUY DE A POCO, ya que dioooos, lo que les cuesta a estos dos comunicarse y confiar en el otro, da ganas de pegarles, podrían haberse ahorrado muchas cosas, pero fuera de JODA¡¿ERA NECESARIO QUE KINN SE COJA A PORSCHE DROGADO?! Osea, se que en su mente no estaba "Lo voy a violar" pero le chupo un huevo su estado y aunque después pidiera disculpas no enfatizaron en lo horrible de la situación, *Vegas Y Pete, su historia pasó muy rápido, lo cual es lógico ya que los pusieron recién en los últimos 4 capítulos, aún así no se sintió forzado como esperaba, pero a ver, fuera de joda Pete fue SECUESTRADO, Vegas lo maltrato mucho y Pete lo dejó pasar bastante fácil, aunque al menos acá nos hacían más énfasis en que estaba mal y Vegas debía cambiar para estar con Pete, pero igual Wtf, ese diálogo de Pete al renunciar, lo cual fue muy random por cierto y decirlo a Vegas "Yo era tu mascota" yo estaba de "PETE SOS IDIOTA?", aún así debo admitir que su química era increíble al igual que la de los protagonistas, Por último *Kim y Porchay, lo de ellos quedó MUY inconcluso, al principio lo de ellos se veía lo más sano a pesar de que literal Kim lo utilizaba para sacarle información, pero despues Kim y la caga y sinceramente espero que realmente se esfuerce por recuperar a Porchay, aunque acá todos hacen y perdonan como si nadaaa, pero en fin. En cuanto a desarrollo de personajes, esperaba algo mucho peor, Kinn es una mierda, y me desespero tanto cuando lo hicieron quedar como tonto al olvidarse de Pete y creer que estaba bien, pero aunque no parezca aprendió COSAS, que de seguro en la 2da temporada se le van a olvidar pero en fin, Porsche es HERMOSO, pero si cierro los ojos hay que admitir que el desarrollo de su personaje no fue el mejor, pero aunque era más sumiso de que me gustaría admitir me gustaba que dentro de todo le cerraba el orto a Kinn y le hacía ver cuando estaba mal, aunque había otras veces en las que era tremendo hipócrita porque le decía a Kinn que confíe en el y cuando es su turno decide confiar en VEGAS sabiendo todo lo que hizo y no en su puto novio, pero en fin, para ser de los típicos personajes "Estoy con el bad boy" me cayó bien, Takhun es un GENIO y el si me cayo mejor de lo que esperaba, Pete es mas interesante de lo que aparenta y ojala supieramos mas de el, aunque repito que la caga que se fuera con Vegas refiriéndose a su mismo como "Mascota", Vegas es alguien que desde el príncipio nos lo presentaron como un mierda, aunque eso no le quita las forradas que hizo, sin contar de que al final iba a matar a Porsche y como que simplemente lo dejaron pasar, básicamente le dejaron pasar todo y yo como de "Ke?", si, su personaje es interesante y de los que más me intriga pero no puedo sentir empatia completa por el aún, el Sr. Korn y el Sr. Gun tienen MUCHO para contar y tranquilamente podrían haberles dedicado algún capitulo, pero no, me lo ignoraron completamente, las muertes de Big y del asienstente del Sr. Korn también fueron totalmente ignoradas y me enojo mucho, la dinámica de los guardaespaldas me gustaba mucho y la amistad Pete-Porsche se me hacía muy linda y ojalá hubiera visto más, entre muchos otros personajes a los cuales odie-quise. La comedia no era mala, habían varios momentos en los que no espere reírme, varios protagonizados por Takhun, aunque también a veces no era para nada momento de implementarla y quedaba mal, ya que es una serie de mafia. El misterio siento que fue de las mejores cosas, ya que realmente quería saber que le había pasado a los padres de Porsche y aun estoy algo perdida al respecto, lo cual es obvio ya que deberán seguirlo en la próxima temporada. El fina fue rápido, no malo, solo que podrían haber cerrado de mejor manera las cosas y hacer que se entiendan mejor, ya que muchos personajes simplemente pareciera que sabían que estaban dentro de una serie y era hora de olvidarse de todo lo que pasó y yo como de "Wtf porque nadie hace nd acerca de esto?! " a Vegas lit le mataron al padre y fue como de "Bueno, que sad", sin contar de que su hacen una segunda temporada más vale que me profundicen en el personaje de la madre y no me lo dejen de la nada, porque pueden sacar algo muy interesante de ahí, pero en fin. A pesar de todo, no puedo creer lo ENTRETENIDO que era esto, en serio, toda la semana me dajaban pensando que iba a pasar, aunque lit fuera una trama inexistente te ponían 80 cosas en un capítulo, por lo que se me pasaba volando y quería que sea ya sábado y ver el que seguía, super triste.

La volvía a ver: SI, PERDÓN.

Colclusión: Es una serie de mierda, osea, la mayoría debe saber a que se está metiendo, así que solo tenes que apagar tu cerebro y observar, además yo la veía con mi hermana y una amiga y realmente nos cagamos de risa viéndola, es literal un fanfic de Wattpad hiper mega cliché hecho serie. Esto es realmente un placer culposo, es tan horrible pero tan adictivo, tan vacío pero con tanto por contar, con relaciones horribles pero escenas que sinceramente me hicieron emocionar, aunque después quisiera golpearlos. Es malo, MUY malo, pero la pase increíblemente bien mirando esto por lo que SI, obviamente estoy a la espera de su 2da temporada porque increíblemente les tome más cariño a estos forros de lo que pensaba.

PD: El Capítulo 6 es lo mejor que le pasó a la serie por lejos y sin ese capítulo mi opinión sería mucho más baja.

proceed with caution

First things first, I think that many people don't know what they are getting themselves into. This show is a BL, yes, but it's way darker and more graphic in many different areas (language, NSFW scenes, fight scenes, etc.). I will add some content warnings at the bottom for those who might need them.

Everyone keeps talking about how flawless and perfect this show is with only minor "mistakes" and honestly... I have to disagree. While yes, the production value is significantly higher than in your usual BLs, the writing was nowhere near perfect. Just to highlight one issue: We meet Kim, youngest of the Theerapanyakul brothers and immediately know that he's up to something. He's secretive and constantly sneaks around and tries to gather some important info. It makes up the majority of his storyline. It's either him playing Kimlock Holmes or him having some boyfriend time with Chay. Solving this mystery it very tricky, so he has to be smart and careful about it. And this show really wants to let us know that he is both. But then, this plot just get's sidelined and eventually forgotten about. Suddenly it's not that important anymore and once Porsche now actually wants to know this secret information that Kim spent hours and weeks discovering, another character just swoops in and says "yeah sorry that it took me an hour and a half to get you this very secretive and important information, I was sleepy and needed a nap, but here you go". LIKE??? They did him so dirty and for what...

And no matter how many times people try to gaslight me, a mature story with criminals as protagonists doesn't automatically require them being abusers. They can be bad guys and still respect boundaries and give a damn about consent. I'm sorry, but a guy automatically loses all his attractiveness to me once they cross this line. Therefore, not many attractive men in this show for me.

This show loves to twist the plot. You think that you finally settled in and know how things work and BAMM new secret unlocked, another twist in this plot and it slowly turns into a pretzel. This happens quite a lot especially in the last third of the show. And it's intruiging at first, but I got a little tired of it by the end.

The time with our main couple and main characters Kinn and Porsche was a rollercoaster ride. I got a little fed up with them by the end. It was interesting watching them navigate their feelings towards each other, especially in that work enviroment (and the power imbalance as well). I got bored of these two repeating the same behavior over and over again. They had their cute moments but at one point I was so done with them that I couldn't even take it seriously anymore. But that meant that I had a great time the last two episodes since I just accepted whatever the writers threw at me and stopped questioning things or getting all riled up over these fictional characters. So, that's that.

The one Theerapanyakul brother that got it the worst is Tankhun. He was one of the comic relief characters that could've been really great. Even though he's way smarter than people give him credit for, he was never allowed to fully step outside of the box this show put him in. He got a moment here and there where he was allowed to be the only one seeing through everyone's bs, but in the end, it didn't matter much.

I was very concerned about the VegasPete storyline, as I only heard a few bits and pieces about it and I wasn't sure if the writers would be able to handle such a difficult topic well. And turns out my concerns were absolutely valid. While the slow built-up was okay, the ending felt rushed. I would've loved to follow Pete a little more and his inner turmoil. How he manages to accept his feelings for Vegas after everything he did to him. I found their scenes to be fascinating, but they would've benefited from more time. Their relationship starts out in a deeply fucked up way and this can easily be ruined if it's not handled with enough time and care.

But credit, where credit is due: Great production. I've read probably around a hundred posts of people making in-depth character analysis, discussing color symbolism, pointing out hints and little easter eggs, pointing out parallels, and so much more. It really shows how much effort went into making this show. The sound is good, the fighting scenes are captivating, the NSFW scenes don't feel stiff or awkward but natural and intimate. I think that it's a really great product. The actors have all great chemistry with each other and seemed pretty comfortable with each other. The music was also fantastic, they had a real banger on their hands and knew it. Also the different version of it and how they used them, chef's kiss.
The only thing that I critique though is the writing.

Content Warnings: rape, attempted rape, drugging, torture, abusive parents, so much blood and death. If you are not comfortable with these things I advice you to skip this show or find someone who can tell you which scenes to avoid.

Very good drama

This drama have one of the spiciest scenes I've seen in BL dramas till now. Actors played it very well and fighting scenes are also great. It's a title I would re-watch because of those scenes and charismatic characters. I gave only 8 in general because I think the story developed to quickly and they would be able to make two seasons of it if only they would spend more time on each character. It would be one of the greatest BL drama of all time then for me. Music was nothing special. Not very good not bad, that's why 7. The comedy, action and spicy scenes were played very well by actors but I've seen better romance scenes that's why only 9. Otherwise it would be 10/10. Still I highly recommend to watch. Especially if someone is looking for spicy scenes.

Beautiful, serious, and full of dilemmas

Kinnporsche is full of beautiful moments, sad moments, serious moments, and a lot of dilemmas. How should Porsche get more money? Should he really join Kinn as his bodyguard? Should he be his love? Should he stay with the main family? There are so many multifaceted problems that make the characters feel alive. On top of this, the acting is top-notch. There is a lot of violence, blood, and gun scenes, definitely the most in any BL. The finale has a lot of twists as well.

Kinn and Porsche's relationship is special. They have a lot of tension and intimacy. The two actors do a great job at portraying them, and they show their love and passion very well on screen. I am extremely satisfied with the ending as well. The whole series is about as long as other Thai series, with 14 episodes of around 50 minutes. The run time is enough so that every character feels real and is realized well. I especially loved the side couple, it was so unexpected and while they were toxic in the beginning, they made each other heal and feel special. It is beautiful to see in a BL. I would recommend this BL if you are comfortable with violence and guns, as well as serious matters. This is not a sweet love story from beginning to end. There are a lot of family dilemmas and the main theme is based on mafias, so take that into account when watching. I personally do not like mafia stories too much and dislike seeing blood, but for some reason, I could bear watching this easily.

The main highlight of the series is the passion, the dramatic family ties, and the growth of their lives. The ending really ties everything together, and after watching the whole thing, It really feels like a big and important entity in the BL world.
