My Dear Gangster Oppa (2023)

ALGO INCRÍVEL QUE POUCO A POUCO FOI INDO LADEIRA ABAIXO

Vou começar dizendo que eu sou apaixonada pela química entre os protagonistas pois eu já amava "Ai Long Nhai" quando comecei a assistir essa série, mas aqui eu sinto que desperdiçaram um pouco da boa química entre os atores.
Os três primeiros episódios são impecáveis, são bons de verdade e eu não mudaria nada mas depois disso parece que o tom da série muda, Guy é um garoto muito mimado e todas as iniciativas partem do Thiu o que deixa os acontecimentos cansativos e se você junta isso com o fato de que o triângulo amoroso dura a série INTEIRA (mesmo a gente sabendo com quem o Guy vai ficar no final) a coisa se torna quase insustentável.
Do nada o personagem coadjuvante do triangulo ganha muito tempo de tela e mesmo depois de tudo que o Guy passou com Thiu ele ainda está confuso se ama o amigo. É INADMISSÍVEL.
Essa é uma série razoavelmente curta levando em conta tudo que temos no mercado e mesmo assim perderam tempo com coisas que ninguém estava interessado ao invés de focar no desenvolvimento do casal e no casal secundário que foi totalmente deixado de lado então as cenas deles pareciam bobas e rasas.
E uma das premissas da história que era os jogos que eles jogavam também foi desperdiçada.
Eu me mantive aqui até o fim porque gosto muito dos protagonistas mas foi triste ver algo bom se perdendo com o passar dos episódios.
Eu detesto triângulo amoroso e aqui ele se manteve até o final, o casal principal foi pouco desenvolvido e com poucos momentos realmente românticos, o casal coadjuvante foi uma piada e só o começo vale realmente a pena.

Don't watch for the mafia plotline...

I almost wish I could rate this lower. The "gangster" aspects mostly involved a loose mafia plotline, complete with poorly choreographed fight scenes and a rivalry that made no sense. However, despite the lackluster gangster oppa plot, I found myself enjoying every single episode WAY more than I expected.

This show is fun. It's light, an easy watch, and unintentionally goofy. There's not too much drama between the couple over the course of the 8 episodes, which is ideal in a show like this. Tew (Meen) and Guy (Ping) meet while playing online games together and decide to meet up. The two totally hit it off and start hanging out together more regularly, which of course leads to them falling in love. However, Tew's attempts to hide his "gangster" identity don't go well, and this could put Guy in danger. I find mafia BLs to be hit or miss, especially when it comes to the action scenes. I don't typically expect a lot out of Thai BLs when it comes to that, but if you're going to do a gangster concept, I do think that's pretty important. While it may have missed the mark there, it made up for it in the cute and fun romance, which is worth watching.

Not the Master piece but worth watching

Series was so good, Thier acting was good i would surely recommend itt. So let me be honest here MeenPing has been one of my favorite bl ship since Ailongnhai. Lol the story was so good even though the series only had 8 episodes in total they could have been portraying the story so well but they kinda rushed it lmao which got kindaa messed up and confussing at times. Even though that gangster kinda vibe didn't suit our Meen(My opinion) he still played it well tho. The character GUY loll i felt like even he wasn't sure about his feelings at times(that really pissed me off) Ping played his role so well his acting was on point. Well well overall i loved this series even tho i loved this series and MeenPing has so much of potentiallll rooting for them <3

My dear MeenPing has the chemistry but not consistency

It is my second drama wherein Meen and Ping are the paired couple, and as expected, both of them still have the chemistry that wins the audience to continue consuming their show. When Ping’s character was introduced, I was in awe of how cute this man is. His acting may be totally below average when it comes to heave scenes but whenever he has a youthful and joyful mood, the whole scenes are just like a ray of sunshine full of fluffiness and majestic smiles.

In this drama, they gave a second lead syndrome in which, Whal played by Winner, absolutely caught my attention to the next level. This guy is a total hottie and at the same time a softie. I can’t blame Guy for falling in love with his best friend Whal as this man knows how to take good care of someone by showering them with utmost care and attention.

Another thing that ticks my attentiveness is the unexpected pairing of the mafia assistants. I must say that I love how they shaped the non-toxic masculinity with Tul’s character, who seems manly and macho.

However, I noticed that MeenPing drama is great during their first few episodes but not that consistent as I felt a little bored during the last few episodes. I also experienced this kind of emotion during their first major acting as a pair and maybe it was their acting or the storyline that gets too draggy at the end.

Nevertheless, I can’t hide the fact that I have a good time watching the show and despite the flaws it has, the drama itself managed to be an average BL one for me.

Maybe contain spoilers ..Heck I don't know

This was good overall but there was a lot that didn't make sense. When it came
right down to it the mob boss was really a weak character. For someone in that
line of work to make someone you know not wrapped to tight your right hand
was just ridiculous. A mob boss is to be a take no prisoners kind of person.
Just because Kenji stuck a gun to his mouth means nothing as a supposed test of loyalty .🙄
Also about the Kenji character 🙄he was so unnecessarily over the top and looked like a
clownish fool to be honest. No offense to the actor but that was just bad on epic levels.
I also don't get why Tew didn't kill the guy when he was supposed to. Why keep giving
him chance after chance letting him live was beyond me. Unless he wanted to stop killing
because of Guy is the only explanation I could come up with. In the end I'd rewatch this again
from time to time though.

Watchable but not re-watchable

I finished the episode and I must say that I hoped I had forgotten more emotional. From the first to the sixth episode the enrendo had been remarkable.

Overall the series was good, but I confess that there are points that left something to be desired..

Starting with the good ones.. I loved the friendship created between P'Tew and P'Tul. I wasn't expecting it, however, it was so refreshing to see the moments shared by the two, both in work and in personal life.

When P'Boss appeared I expected there to be some development between him and P'Tul. Even though I knew it wouldn't be with the same depth as the main characters, but they are a couple immediately following the main one.

And is it just me or did you also feel that something was missing... I'll explain, in the scene where P'Tew rents a store to make the disguise P'Boss and P'Tul spend a lot of time alone, but NOTHING happened between them, how is it possible? I don't know if it was their intention to make P'Tul insensitive

And we saw P'Boss spending most of his time apologizing, even though he proved with his actions that he was sorry. It left me heartbroken

And suddenly at the end of episode 8 we see the two interacting with the group...as if nothing had happened between them, it was strange

And then we have P'Phai, who is part of the common group of friends of P'Tew and P'Guy..and is the only one who has a very fast character development, suddenly she is police and does not appear at the last moment that they are all gathering together?

Without forgetting something that gave me a lot of fun about P'Guy...P'Tew had told him that he was a gangster so how is he going to contact P'Phai who is a police officer for the attempted murder of his boyfriend's former boss knowing that they deal with illegal matters and that they are in possession of illegal weapons?

Apart from the logic of the facts, I think that if they had lengthened a little the story would be better, because the story was a little more complex. 8 episodes is very little and many characters did not have time to develop as it should be, such as P'Guy. In the last episode, even explaining to him the situation that is of life or death to another human being he is insensitive

Depois de terminar, posso dizer que começou muito e bem, mas foi dando uma ligeira "caída' no final. Como é segundo trabalho do ship principal, eu sinceramente achei que deram uma grande evoluída como atores: amadureceram e melhoraram bastante. Mas acho que perderam um pouco da "fofura" da primeira atuação (claro que o enredo desta história é bem mais denso e complexo, e até um pouco cruel as vezes, mas muito realista). Mesmo assim a produção foi boa, a história é legal, e os meninos continuam fofos juntos. Sempre vale a pena assistir se você curti o gênero.

Could be Better - but MeenPing ❤️

I was so excited for this series. I will watch Meen and Ping in anything they do and enjoy it. They are such a perfect couple and have great chemistry. Both are adorable and the differences in their personalities just works. Meen plays a great gangster and, as always, Ping is cute as a button. Wish there were more steamy scenes!

The story was pretty good but it was no “KinnPorche” or “Manner of Death”. I would love to see them in more serious roles. This was edging that way but had a little too much slapstick for me.

Was not of fan of TulBoss couple. Tul was too old for Boss and Boss was just a terrible actor. I was too distracted by his weird facial expressions.

The ending came out of nowhere. No one mentioned doing that and seemed very unrealistic to me. I’m sure it was explained better in the novel but seemed very rushed in the series.

Believe it or not, it is better than their previous BL together

I originally was not going to watch this series. Why? Because of the MC's Meen and Ping. Last year, I watched another series with them called 'Ai Long Nhai'. I gave that series a 1.5,0.5 for the two actors who played Meen's father in the series. So, when I saw this, I told myself not to watch it. However, I caved in and watched it. And I must say, it is actually a lot better than their previous series.

The first three episodes of this series were phenomenal for me. After, that I don't know what happened. I just felt that more episodes could have been used to properly explain this series- and not twelve episodes but like just one or two more to just flesh out the storyline. Pacing is an issue for me in this series, especially at the end when a few weeks have passed, followed by a few months. Also, some of the supporting characters annoyed me a bit (Wal and Kenji). Because of all of, this I give the story a 7 because Meen was actually good in this.

As stated previously, some of the acts stood out to me in their acting skills prepare for others. I have watched other mafia shows (some good and some bad) and the acting here by Meen and Tien (the actor who played Tul), is good. I also liked some of the supporting characters in their roles. Because of this - I will give the acting a 7.

The music is memorable, and I know that I am going to miss hearing it every Thursday. so, I will give that an 8. For the Rewatch Valu, I will give a 7.5, because I really did like them, and the story and I don't mind watching them again.

So, it can be seen that this series is not perfect. But this second outing of Meen and Ping as a couple shows us that the actors have improved (for me), drastically as I rated their previous series a 1.5 and I am now rating this series a 7.5.

Lovable series

I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of this series, from the captivating storyline to the palpable chemistry between the characters. Compared to their first series, I must admit that this one was more enjoyable and showcased their improvement. The storyline was engaging and intricately woven, keeping me hooked from start to finish. The character dynamics and their relationships were portrayed with a finesse that added depth and authenticity to the narrative.

One of the standout features of this series was the impeccable chemistry between the characters. The actors' performances were not only convincing but also created a magnetic on-screen presence that intensified the emotional impact of the story. The nuanced interactions, heartfelt moments, and subtle gestures contributed to the overall authenticity of the characters' connections, making it a joy to watch.

The evolution and development of the characters were also commendable. Each one underwent significant growth, adding layers to their personalities and making them relatable. The character arcs were thoughtfully crafted, and the cast members' performances brought them to life in a way that resonated with the audience.

Furthermore, the production quality of this series was good. The cinematography, set design, and overall visual aesthetics contributed to the immersive experience. The attention to detail in recreating the world of the story was evident, and it enhanced the overall viewing pleasure.

In terms of pacing, the series struck a perfect balance, allowing the plot to unfold organically without rushing or dragging. The narrative twists and turns were well-executed, keeping me on the edge of my seat and eager to discover what would happen next. The seamless integration of suspenseful moments and poignant scenes created a rollercoaster of emotions, making it a truly memorable viewing experience.

In conclusion, this series lived up to the expectations. From a compelling storyline to stellar performances and remarkable chemistry between the characters, it showcased a level of quality that is a testament to the dedication and talent of everyone involved in its production. I eagerly anticipate Meen Nichakoon Khajornborirak and Ping Krittanun Aunchananun's future work, as this series has undoubtedly left a lasting impression on me as a viewer.
