KinnPorsche (2022)

My Disappointment Is Immeasurable and My Day Is Ruined

I dont wanna see people I don't like kiss and fall in "love".

I felt it with cutie pie and I feel it here, some characters (or more specifically, their decisions) are just too unlikable to overlook. The leeway given to mediocre plot in exchange for decent, not awkward BL doesn't exist here, because even the BL parts left me conflicted.

If a show is GOOD, like really, sincerely good, I just watch it. Back to back to back until it's done. I was reading reviews while watching episode 2 because I couldn't fathom how this got that high of a rating and I've had fastforward held down since the beginning of ep. 2. I'm skipping forwards constantly because Porsche is so aggressively unlikable. For all that he was wary of the mafias, he starts working for them and immediately begins acting a fool. I was literally rooting for someone to shoot him-- not fatally, though I don't think I'd care regardless, but anything to just restart the brain he seemed to have left behind in episode one. I'm not even done with episode two yet and this is all I have to say about it. The only positive is that episode one was interesting enough to get me to episode two. Episode two might not be interesting enough to get me to episode three, but the reviews implied it'll be worth it to wait for the VegasPete storyline so I'm gonna see how long I can hang on.

If you hate cringe, this one's not for you. By episode two, there's no breaks between Porsche making Stupid Fucking Decisions™️. Every single scene, you can assume he'll take the stupidest, most deranged action possible, without fail. He seemed like a reasonable, serious young man in the first episode, but in the second, we learn he is your average, pos asshole. I'm being so real, it has been four minutes since I wrote the previous paragraph and every time he's on screen the urge to drop this show increases exponentially. It's not even stressful because I KNOW he's going to do something so stupid it feels patently unrealistic. It's annoying in the kind of way that just make you want to leave, there's nothing to be said. I like unlikable characters when done correctly, but this is a type of unlikable that I don't think some backstory can fix. He does something that should end with a bullet between the eyes (because they're the MAFIA, HELLO???? do actions not have consequences????) and all that happens is he gets lightly strangled to sleep. How the hell do you even gently strangle someone??? And everyone else in the room who are literally also mafias are okay with just that??? Sure, yeah, ok, I'll believe it even though me, as a viewer, was as unsatisfied as they should've been.

I cannot properly communicate how disappointing this series is so far. And every new scene I watch, I have to come back to type more because I hate it. I'm STILL IN EPISODE TWO. Every. Single. Scene. Is. Frustrating. I might just start skipping whenever I see Porches face and hope the second couple saves this.

I've made it to episode three with only a single lobotomy, yay. I can't tell if it's Porsche or the author who forgot about the brother he's supposed to care dearly for. He goes out (and thus definitely has service) and doesn't think of him once. Now that Kinn's brother is more front and center, I can see that everything I took issue with in the previous episodes was an attempt at comedy. Not one bit of it landed, including in this episode, but I can at least see where the director thinks I should be laughing.

Episode three marks Porsche taking things slightly more seriously. Unfortunately, I am already rooting for anyone who isn't him AND doesn't like him. He puts himself in more stupid situations that he KNOWS won't go well (and it's also never explained how doing what he wants somehow trumps everyone else's authority. He just leaves his new boss to go work for the old one without consulting either? And it just works out I guess, because it's never addressed 🙂 sure ok. But why write a mafia story?) Someone points a gun and Porsche holds his up for literally two seconds. Two seconds, and then just raises his hand instead? Like bro, at this point just say, "omg babe this isn't you, put the gun down." Wtf is a hand supposed to do against bullets????

Everything's apparently life and death because mafia, but everybody pulls guns out for fun and then doesn't shoot. I thought we were going to get something gritty and real because one dude gets shot for fun in episode one, but that is literally as interesting as it will ever get. The montages of "Oh fun drunk times haha" is literally the most engaging part of this episode and the last. I do not know if the bar can get lower than six feet under, but it's trying. Speaking of the second bar trip, still no sign of giving two shits about his brother. It's like the character from the start is absolutely gone. And they just established its only been a month, so it's not like he should've changed entire personalities.

The "romance" between Kinn and Porsche feels forced. And then it is forced, because Kinn forces a makeout on a drunk Porsche despite Kinn himself seeming almost sober. We're in episode four now, by the way. I haven't had much to compliment in this series, so I'll say this much: the opening song is great. No urge to skip it, especially when I know the episode won't be. The episode recaps go over the last two episodes, which would be awesome if anything happened in them, but is instead just entirely unnecessary. Even to this point, Porsche is unlikable, irritating, and just plain dumb. Takhun is currently the most likable character and, if you're watching the series, you'll understand why that's bad. Vegas was on screen for ten seconds and managed to be the best character so far. The best character otherwise would be Pete, but Pete doesn't dislike Porsche, so he gets points deducted. Jesus, this character is so annoying. I'm sorry, every time I press play, he's doing something fucking stupid. The best thing he's done so far is not be homophobic, which is not a high bar.

Have y'all noticed I haven't mentioned the story at all? It's because there isn't one. I have never cared less about a plot and I haven't even been able to locate this one to care about. Vegas just did something so lame bro, I can't breathe, I need one good character PLEASE. It's not as stupid as Porsche or Kinn's behavior so maybe I just forget it happened? I think this series gives me the ick because I'm just unsatisfied with every little thing at this point. Like the diamond auction?? I could understand gold but wtf gives a shit about diamonds???? A secret auction for a rock with no actual value?? Yeah, the ick. If anything else was believable, I'd overlook a lot, but the show never misses an opportunity to be shit.

Remember that forced romance I mentioned? Well now it's literal, Kinn fucks Porsche when he's drugged at a bar 🙃. I knew it was coming and I still was hoping it'd go different. I'm now in episode five (in about two hours since I began, that's how much I'm skipping and fast forwarding) and I think this is the last one. I can't stomach more of this waiting for a better couple, especially because now that I've seen a bit more of Vegas, my hopes are nonexistent.


I have now seen an additional bit more of Vegas and take back my previous statement. The first couple barely exists, the second couple has yet to acknowledge each other... why is there a third couple? They're cute, as in the people who play then are cute. The characters themselves I couldn't give less of a fuck about and they're scenes push me further out of a drama I was already way out of. Imma get into episode six though, because it's only taking 10mims per ep at this point. I don't know if I can still count this as watching, but I also still get what's going on because there's really not much so. Speaking of episode six, if you're stuck outside with no source of clean water, don't drink river, lake, or pond water until day three, when it's urgent. Parasites exist. Also, this shouldn't need to be said, but if you see a ravine, don't jump over it. Especially if you can clearly see the sides of it bro, fr just walk around, was this necessary???

There is no greater pain than trying to fastforward only to realize you've already been watching at 2x. At this point I'm now aware this is like a series of vaguely mafia themed fantasies the author had and then attempted to string together with a hair thin plot. Its actually a really bearable watch if you keep that in mind. That said, now that I'm on episode seven, I understand and agree that Vegas is saving this show. He won't succeed, but now I just skip to whenever his face shows up. Anyway, I watched about halfway through episode eight and then I was abruptly done. Nothing really happened to make it so, I just didn't want to watch anymore, even with all the skipping.

I won't say don't watch this, but if you're thinking of watching it, you should probably try walking your turtle or teaching your pet bird to swim first, it will be more entertaining 🙂

This was, obviously, written as I watched, so please excuse any confusing sentences/sentence structure.

Putting my kp defender hat on (fetishizing? toxic? romanticizing abuse/sa? no plot?)

Okay, this is my first review on mdl so be patient with me and buckle up because this going to be long as i would like to take this chance to clear some "popular beliefs" about this series that have been repeated over and over again in both the comment and review sections, popular beliefs that are actually FALSE which i'm going to debunk thanks to the help of my greater friends: the oxford dictionary and critical thinking! The premise is over so let's get started!

-Story is a solid 8.5. While my biased ass would like to give everything a 10, i believe that one of the purposes of writing a review is to give a truthful glimpse of what future watchers should expect from the series reviewed, and since i believe honesty is the best policy, here are my thoughts about the overall story and what i think could have been better. Contrary to what a lot of people have been saying, this series has a plot, a plot that works "undercover" since episode 1 while we discover the main characters of this story (WARNING: this is a character-driven series which means that through the developments of the characters and their relationships the story unfolds, so if you're not into that and prefer series packed with an overbearing amount of plot each episode, this is not for you). Our main protagonist is Porsche who is a 50% unserious, unhinged, and reckless university student on the verge of dropping out and a 50% loving and kinda absent (due to circumstances) brother to Porchay whom he's his everything: the last thing his parents left him to take care of (yes, spoiler but not really he's an orphan) along with the house. Every decision being taken by porsche, decisions heavily criticized by some reviewers and labeled nonsensical, is actually in character with his persona and the lovesick fool is going to become once he falls in love with his forever-worthy foe, Kinn, the heir of the Theerapanyakul clan aka the main family. Kinn, unlike Porsche, is presented to us as this domineering, serious, cold, rational mafia prince (spoiler: he's actually husband material once he falls in love) who is only obedient and second in power to his father, the leader of the clan or as i call him the master puppeteer, Korn, a character and a relationship that will play a big role in understanding the reasoning behind kinn's choices, keep that in mind! What is interesting about their relationship and how it works so perfectly is that, both kinn and porsche are presented to the viewers as incompatible in every single way but as their story progresses we slowly start to understand that they have much more in common than they initially let in. Their inherent understanding of each other, which seemed inexplicable (and some people still don't understand), actually comes from them bearing the same type of burden, the family burden, hence they find solace and understanding in each other something that is never going to change even with the many miscommunications they have going on and that they will continue to have because they are just humans and people don't change that easily like all these bl series want you to believe. I'm not going to explain step by step what's going to happen but the focal point of the plot is Porsche (why would a mafia leader hire a street-tough with 0 experience and relation to the mafia world? What is the reason? And that reason is slowly but surely given to us along with the budding relationship between Kinn and Porsche). Their story is what start the engine of the plot, a plot that moves forwards with them. Again, this kind of character-driven series is actually the most common one, let's think about all the popular bls out there such as i told sunset about you (one of my absolute favorites), bad buddy, not me or until we meet again, every single one of them is character-driven, "the plot" comes second and moves with the relationship of the main couple which is the main focus, the main entrée, the main engine of these series. So why do a lot of people who enjoy this type of character-driven story consider kinnporsche's plot weak? Simple, unlike all the bls i've just mentioned kp has what people deem "toxic" characters (but i'm going to further explain this below and why it's bullshit). Also to have a bit of context to what i'm trying to say you should go take a look at the numerous interviews with the all crew, particularly you should listen to what p'pond, the main director, said about this series and what is the main intent of it. This is first and foremost a LOVE STORY about flawed characters, human beings who struggle in the unusual setting they have found themselves in, it's about broken humans who find solace in each other. The mafia is just a setting, the mafia is just a background that plays a role in the story but it's NOT the main focus and they have always been clear about that.
Now, what i disliked. One criticism i agree with is the fucked up pacing and the time laps that unfortunately they failed to properly show us: kinn and porsche first kiss was like a month into Porsche's new life as kinn's bodyguard and we know that because kinn mentions it otherwise we wouldn't have been aware. The pete and vegas storyline seems very rushed and that is because they failed to show us proper time lapses because there are many hints that pete wasn't held hostage for just a few days, but the way they decided to go with it wasn't it and it's the main reason why i think not a lot of people felt the deepness of their feelings, and i blame it all on the "time management". Also, there are some technical and logical inconsistencies that could have been easily corrected which remind me a bit of all that hollywood nonsense, just to name a few: the lack of bulletproof vests for the bodyguards, the dusty blood every time someone is shot (i guess that red dust looks great on camera and it's visually appealing but doesn't make much sense irl lol), pete's bruises that keep appearing and disappearing like they have a life of their own lol (i.e when pete returns to the main family his arms appear to be free of bruises but then in the bathroom scene they magically make a comeback). Since we are on the topic of inconsistencies, i want to give my two cents, i've seen people a lot of people in the reviews mentioning plot holes but never actually explaining what these plot holes are or when they point them out it's just a lack of attention to what's happening on the screen and the details that, to be fair, could have been easily missed. Overall, the story to me is pretty consistent and solid and makes for a good entertainment, so don't be fooled there are not THAT many plot holes, there is a just amount of them like in every other series.

Acting/Cast 10/10
I know that a lot of people might find a 10 exaggerated and biased since it's not like there are any oscar worthy performances and i agree, it is exaggerated but it's a ten that needs to be put into context, i'm reviewing, and rating this as a THAI series and if you know a bit about thai series you would find the 10 kinda reasonable. I've seen a lot of people calling out the "bad acting" in kp and to that, i'm going to copy and paste a comment i wrote some days back because i know that most of these people rating the acting less than 7 or calling it bad have actually no experience or a very limited one with thai series, bl or not.
"Being the noisy individual that i am, i always look at the profiles' of the people because i'm interested in understanding where the criticisms come from and let me tell you that i wasn't surprised in the least that for most of these people it was their first thai series and approximately 7 out of 10 had come from kdrama watchers. I'll introduce myself: hi everyone! I've been a tv series watcher for most of my life and an asian drama enjoyer for the past 15 years and let me tell you when i say that the first time i watched an asian drama (i started my journey with the kdrama winter sonata) i was weirded out by the acting is an understatement, especially because i was mostly used to classic american series. I immediately found the acting really "bad" only later to realize that it was not the acting that was bad, it was just different, a different way of acting (as in mimicking daily behaviors which i was not accustomed to), very different from the ones i saw in american or more westerns series. When i got used to korean dramas i then jumped on the dorama train (precisely i started with the iconic hana yori dango), and let me tell you that i was once again weirded out by the acting, the way they acted was very different and while they had a "similar" vibe it was still a totally different way of acting (as in behaving) and spoiler alert that was because cultures and societies influence they way one's acts, behaviors that are later on mimicked in tv series. Well you got the drill, this "culture shock" in the form of acting happened to me every time i jumped on a series from a different foreign country, but the worst shock i got was probably from my first thai series which threw me into a completely different setting from the ones i was used to: the "weird" humor, the dramatic antics, the acting, each of them totally different from all my previous experiences. In the beginning, i also considered it bad acting but then watching more thai dramas (bl and not) i understood that it's wasn't bad acting, they were just different behaviors from what i was used to (NB: not saying that bad acting doesn't exist in thai dramas, it does and it's kinda everywhere nowadays as companies prefer cute faces over talent, but i feel that to really call a performance bad acting you must have some kind of "benchmark", something that some kp watchers have not hence why a lot were weirded out by the humor, the cheesy acting and others behavior). The thai drama industry is VERY different from the korean, japanese or chinese ones which is why when watching a thai series i try not to compare it to other asian dramas because they follow different parameters. Kinnporsche is great series THAI style and has a lot of great acting moments. This not me trying to stop future critiques of this show, everyone's thoughts are valid, this is a message directed ONLY towards the ones who have a limited experience with thai series and uses drama from other countries as their "benchmark", just a reflection in hope to make you see things from another perspective."

Music 9
I'll keep it short because i have much more to say. The soundtrack was ALMOST perfect, very fitting to the scenes, and very telling, music set the mood and made some scenes more enjoyable. The ost is actually also great, my favorite out of all thai series, c'mon slot machine and jeff satur, do i need to say more? The only thing i wish there was more variety, some tracks while being good where repeted too much for my likings.

AND now onto the real thing i want to discuss, if you're easily pressed read at your own risk:
i've seen too many times the words "romanticization" and "fetishization" being thrown around carelessly, without any proper explanation of why they feel it is so, and this is something that really irks me because these words are slowly starting to lose their meanings to become umbrella terms for whatever people feel like they mean. So let's go take a look at what the oxford dictionary says but before that a reminder of the warnings given at the beginning of every episode: "Characters, behaviors, places, agencies, occupations and events in this series are FICTIONAL and for ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY. IT IS NOT INTENDED TO PROMOTE ANY ACTION IN THE SERIES. VIEWER'S DISCRETION IS ADVISED" These are the warnings that appear at the beginning of every single episode and they are the same warnings that some of y'all like to disregard every episode just to say "this series promotes..." No, this series has no educational purposes which means that it does not promote anything, and it has been written, said, and repeated over and over again by everyone at this point, directors and viewers alike. Do you take fiction too seriously? Are you one of those people who think FICTION has a direct impact on reality? Well, i'm sorry to inform you but that's on you, it's not the series' fault, and this is also why there's literally written "viewers' discretion is advised" a warning that you consciously decide to ignore just to complain about everything that you have been warned about (also, it's a MAFIA themed series, what the hell did you expect? pls someone enlighten me because i still don't understand the expectations you have for this series. The portrayal of high moral standards, standards that most of the time are also unreachable in real life? Pls don't make me laugh). If you see a warning that says "don't touch" but you decide to ignore it and proceed to touch it just to get hurt, whose fault it is? Exactly.
Now onto the definition of these 2 words:

- People claim that the series romanticizes abuse, rape, sa and so and so forth. Setting aside the warnings, let's take a look at the definition: "to romanticize means to make something seem more attractive or interesting than it really is" So by this definition and your claims the show makes abuse/rape/sa better and appealing than they actually are. Sure, but may i ask you where this happens? Are we talking about the dubious consent/sa/whatever you consider porsche and kinn's first time? If so let's talk about it. Some people say that it romanticizes abuse because they played some sort of romantic music in the background which might be true if context wasn't a thing. Was the director's intent really to romanticize sa? Or they were just showing what happened through porsche's eyes? The colors, the focal lens, everything gives a blurry, discontinued, an almost dream-like vibe which is related to porsche's state. The music and atmosphere were in tune with porsche's emotions. Also, are we forgetting that episode 5 exists? Are we forgetting that they clearly showed both porsche and kinn struggling with coming to terms with what happened and all the repercussions brought by that night? How did the series make what happened in episode 4 better when we see porsche literally breaking down? Because it clearly does not, you don't see what porsche has gone through because of that and say: "yeah i want that too! it's so cool!" I would have agreed on the romanticization argument if they left it at that and made it seem like nothing happened, but they did not because episode 5 exists for a reason. You can't take such a scene and ignore what it follows because what happens after determines if the intent was to gloss over the issue or not. Or are we talking about the abuse against pete perpetrated by vegas? Even that, how does the series make the abuse better or good? Can someone elaborate on that? And since we are on the topic, the vegaspete storyline is really complex, and no i'm not saying this to sound elitist or to make it seem deeper than it actually is, both vegas and pete are two very flawed and broken individuals (just like everyone else in the series) and as weird as it sounds they found a bit of "solace" in each other, something that does NOT stem from the abuse and if you think it is then i believe you missed the point of their whole story (and i'm sure y'all are also the same people who believe that vegaspete are in love when if you paid attention you wouldn't call that love, at least immediatly). So in conclusion, however you want to look at it, the show does not make anything better or more appealing, for every action there's a consequence and that's life, people make decisions, and sometimes they make shitty decisions and go along with them but it does not mean that the show romanticizes those decisions.

-Some of y'all have accused the show to fetishize m/m relationships but let's take a look at the meaning of the said word "to fetishize means to get sexual pleasure from thinking about or looking at a particular thing" (in an obsessive way). If you think that the series fetishizes m/m relationships just because it shows two grown men with a high sexual drive/libido acting according to it and having sex and showing their affection to each other physically, then there's the door, go back on twitter where nonsense is normalized. And also if the only thing you got to comment about from 14 episodes is the 5 nc scenes which are no longer than 2/3 minutes each, then i have bad news for you, because maybe you're the ones that watched it for the sex. Not to mention that every nc scene has a purpose, they tell us something about their dynamic, their conflict, their inner feelings, etc, they ARE important. I know that having multiple nc scenes that are not straight-up in yo face fanservice is strange but believe me when i say that if you left those scenes out, their story would lose something, and we as the viewers we would have lost some understanding of these characters. If people after watching this show decide to fetishize or overly obsess with m/m relationship irl (which is gross) that's on them, the show does not carry that responsibility, not when they were all very clear of the aim. The show is not responsible for people's actions and thoughts.

In conclusion, if you want a show with great cinematography, acting and a story that is character-driven then kinnporsche is for you (however keep in mind all the tw and the mature nature of it), if not that's completely fine i'm sure there are tons of series out there that can satisfy your taste <3

Worth waiting

Must watch drama... it's been a long time the viewers were waiting for the drama to air bcz of their trailers...since the drama has started it feels like a dream...till now (6th ep.) The drama has been on the perfect level...acting of every character is so good and unique...i know it will be great in next episodes too...so you must go and watch the drama... it's worth watching i really think Porsche is the best actor in Thailand...his acting his emotions are so surreal...so does everyone's

I'll come back to this comment section once i complete it...but till then I'm hoping for much more of good content in the show...i wonder what else would happen ..these thoughts always cover ny mind

Amazing show. Beyond my expectations and mind blowing.

Where to begin. Excellent cast,cinemtography and production. It is a fast paced ,funny,Action packed and Romance BL drama.The chemistry of Kinn and Porche is top notch. The plot was interesting from the beginning without any boring moments. We not only root for main couple but also the supporting cast who have done wonderful job.
Porche was a relatable character as he struggled to make ends meet but fell for his boss Kinn .Mile and Apo's performance is praise worthy. Not only that but,Apo's performance makes me feel that no one could have been a better choice for this role .
Mafia boss Kinn was intimidating in the beginning but we soon get to know that he is a gentle vulnerable soul. His skilled bodyguards come handy in dire situation but at home they are goofy and relaxed. Porche's friendship with other bodyguards and his drunk moments are memorable scenes to watch.
Tankhun is a funny and weirdo brother but he is the MVP of the show. His scenes are filled with drama and funny banter. No actor could have played Tankhun better than P'tong.
Thats the beauty of the show we cant imagine some other actor playing these characters .Props goes to the casting director.
I am short of words now. So go ahead and watch this amazing show.

Expectations fulfilled

When the trailers were released initially, the storyline was action filled and intense. The actual end result is still very intense with more comedy involved than originally projected. The acting is excellent. The comedy interjects a change of pace between the more intense moments. I understand employing Porsche as a fresh element hopefully not influenced to spy on the "main" family. The first kiss and the first sexual encounter were both under the influence of alcohol and later drugs. The lack of clear consent in the sexual encounter was concerning, but the sexual tension and sensuality were intoxicating. Porsche's frequent drunkenness is somewhat unbelievable since his role of bodyguard is so critical to Kinn's well-being. However, Porsche's playfulness and mild contempt for authority is an appealing part of his character. Kinn seems narcissistic but occasionally the storyline gives an impression of a deeper story. I'm only 5 episodes into the series, but I'm definitely hooked.

One of the best BL watched till now...

I love beautiful BL stories but not always the fluff. This BL series gives you butterflies with its stories, production, action, and its executions. All the actors are great. This is the first time am like stuck in a BL world and can't do normal stuff...It's always on the mind. Highly recommended but make sure you read the tags as it has mafia, action, and many other such tags which many times can be not your cup of tea. But it's a fictional story which I enjoy as I enjoy reading any story/novel But seeing it on screen is on another level experience. Hats off to the whole team...

Ohh My God! Talk About Delivering on a Promise…

I remember watching the preview on Youtube and being completely blown away. Well here we are almost two years later and the completed series is blowing me away. Let's just say the producers are not pulling any punches. They went all out. Four episodes in and the romance between Kinn and Porsche is through the roof. After watching several reaction videos on Youtube I knew the time had come for me to hall out my credit card and pay for my subscription to IQiyi so that I could enjoy full screen, complete episodes. Imagine that…the KinnPorsche series caused me to subscribe to a channel.

The delivery of Porsche's character is so well done. He is a wonderfully, smiling screw-up which makes him completely charming and endearing. And—Kinn's protectiveness of Porsche is making me drool. I simply love it.

I will be quite honest, I am somewhat terrified of the possible ending of this series. It is after all very "mafia-esque" in its delivery so I don't see them happily riding off into the sunset. Though, if I had my own way, that is how I would end the series.

If you have not watched it yet, the end of episode four is a must. I have rewatched it about ten times already. Porsche's doped-up character makes the scene so wonderfully charming.

I am truly looking forward to the rest of this series even though I am apprehensive about the end.

Disturbing and so far pointless.

The acting is the only thing worth watching in this series.

Honestly, every part of the writing from the first episode to the 4th (which I admit is where I stop) has been absolute crap. The only character that feels like he deserves better than what he gets is Porsche's little brother. All the other characters are bad people to some degree. Even Porsche and Kinn, who we are meant to be the protagonists are not characters that I feel much sympathy for. Also, other than serving as a backdrop to our scary relationship nightmares, does this story have an actual plot? So far, no.

The love story portion of this is extremely problematic. I know this is meant to be mafia and therefore not child friendly, but if you wanted to make it mafia and guns blazing, why advertise it as a BL which is supposed to be romantic? There is nothing romantic or even worthwhile about this story. And since other than the violence and sex, I see no actual plot, I can't imagine that this story is intended to be anything other than a romance. So far, all they've done is set up the relationship between Kinn and Porsche, which, again, is problematic at best.

Kinn is a horrible person. Other than the most basic of character arc, where he meets someone who becomes important to him and falls in love (which is questionable, I want to say possessive lust instead), he has no real value as a character. He is supposed to be the protagonist, but if he's the protagonist, the antagonist is Satan himself. As far as I can see, this character has no redeeming qualities and SPOILER ALERT: he rapes his bodyguard. Kinn takes advantage of Porsche twice when he is in a terribly vulnerable state. One time, amounting to rape as Porsche had been drugged and could not in any way be considered consenting. After that, we are still expected to support this couple and hope they get together? Not on the likely.

The story is also amazingly unbelievable. Apparently Kinn's an amazing fighter, but only when the story calls for him to beat up his bodyguard -- the same bodyguard who bested 4 people in order to protect Kinn when he was running away and unable to defend himself. It's amazing that Kinn was able to improve his skills so much so quickly, isn't it? I mean, how else do we account for Kinn being able to beat up Porsche when the story calls for it but need Porsche's help because he's not able to protect himself when the story calls for that?

Knowing what would be in store for the Vegas and Pete couple IF the series followed the actual book, is just another reason that I can't support this series. The only reason this was written was as a backdrop for porn rape fantasies by writers who probably have no idea what it is like to actually be raped because if they did they wouldn't write this garbage. The series itself isn't much better than the original stories, but at least we don't have to be subjected to Vegas and Pete as they were originally written.

For people who want to watch something with a little vague kind of story based on a mafia family full of violence and action -- you have come to the right place. If you want that and a love story, don't hold your breath. The only love happening in this story so far is the love Porsche has for his brother and the deep and abiding love that Kinn has for himself. I am sure some people are going to come back and tell me that they are mafia, after all, so I can't expect it to be all rainbows and butterflies. And you are right, it is a story about the mafia, but let's don't pretend that it's about love. It's about violence and sex with very little other story beyond that. The overall story itself, other than the abusive relationship going on between Kinn and Porsche, is vague to say the least. Is there a plot and a point outside of the violence and sex and abuse? So far, I'm going to say no. (I realize I've said some of these things twice, call it forgetful, redundant, or placing emphasis -- whatever makes you happy.)

As I said earlier, the only worthwhile part is the talented actors, who have clearly done as much as they could with the poor plot. There is absolutely no redeeming value to this story line, at least up until episode 4. Having learned from the novel what might be coming up, (AGAIN WITH SPOILERS) with Kinn and Porsche somehow ending up happy together and Pete thinking he's in love with the man who tortured and raped him -- I find it disappointing that this series was given the green light in the first place. What does it say about our culture that stories where the worst people do the worst things to each other and end up in love in a hazy pink land of "no, my boyfriend didn't rape me" and also have no real value in the plot department are the stories that are turned into a TV series and promoted to the world?

To be honest, I could be watching porn with no story line at all and feel less shame about my viewing activities. I was conflicted about this story at first, wanting to give it a chance because there aren't very many options in BL, but now I realize that was short sighted. If I want BL to have better options in the future, I have to refuse to support trash BL when it is offered. The only guilt I feel now is that I actually bothered to watch 4 episodes.

KinnPorsche

Every thing about this show is just stunning. The actors, the plot, the music, and the scenery. One of my (and a large portion of drama lovers) most anticipated series. I have had to stop watching it as soon as it's coming out because I can't possibly wait another week for the next episode to come out. So far I have only watched four of the six episodes that have aired. I know that there are novels to go with the show and that the show is based of off them. I have heard that there is a lot of universally disliked elements about the novels, so I don't believe that I am going to read them granted I am still able to enjoy the show. I have also heard from netizens that the producers of the show have fortunately decided to terminate or rewrite most of disliked scenes from the show as they possessed scornful qualities. The novel participated in the bashful theme of romanticizing rape (which is the main reason why I will not be reading the novels) and thankfully the Be On Cloud producers have decided to do away with most of that concept.
Anyway, that is my deal with this show, I am very impressed at how the company has produced the few episodes that I have watched and I am anticipating the next episodes to come.
10/10 would recommend.

Raised the bar immensely for future BL expectations.

Words cannot describe this show's magnificence; I love it. The chemistry between each cast member is outstanding. I love how P'Mile and P'Apo can stand there saying nothing, and you can see their emotions and all the unsaid words reflected through their eyes. This show has raised the bar for what I expect in terms of quality, acting, chemistry etc. I don't know how to watch other shows now if it does not reach the level that Kinnporsche has set. The cinematography is crazy; I cried like a baby in episode six, which extended to the side story we were blessed with. I have never watched a bl show that takes me through so many emotions in different time intervals; it almost feels like I am on a rollercoaster made of emotions. I cannot wait till Saturday for episode seven, but at the same time, I dread what might happen (dread and excitement are the order of the day when waiting for a new episode).

Additionally, the pacing is terrific; it is not rushed but just right. It increases your anticipation (the thirst is real) for more. It's like slow torture, but you are still getting rewarded for suffering. The comedy and switch between scenes are pure genii. The unexpected comedic scene lifts your mood when for example, an episode consisting of a continuous grave situation that has you at the edge of your seat, almost tearing your hair out or even screaming. You forget your pain for a bit, only for another scene to make you cry again (I told you it's torture, but it hurts so good).

Overall, Kinnporsche is a very fantastic show with outstanding acting, a rollercoaster of emotions, a family (as you come to love the cast members and their interactions), and action (it is very thrilling). I am very thankful to the cast and crew, be on cloud for allowing for the showcasing of this masterpiece and the rest of all the fans (including casual viewers, passersby, etc.) that watch the show and let it trend almost daily. I cannot tell you how happy I am that every one of the cast is receiving attention and the crew members who worked so hard for us behind the scenes see the fruit of their labour; they deserve so much more.

The Big Question:
So do I recommend you watch this show? The short answer is HELL YEAH!!!!
