KinnPorsche

Incredible

For me, the wait was totally worth it.

Kinnporshe is the type of show that some people are going to love others are going to hate. I personally love it. The cast is on point, and the acting is really good. Even though some things done in the show are not that necessary it doesn't affect the show itself. It is essential to know that most relationships in Kinnporshe are a little or very toxic. You can't watch this series and expect the healthiest relationships.

The plot was very interesting and honestly, I only completely understood who did what to who in the last episode. Which is very good for a mafia show, they were predictable on some points but still the ending leaves you stunned.

Can't wait for more coming from them.

above all, the PERFECT CASTING*

*especially for the main leads

Hello, it's my first review for a BL drama, I hope you love it!
It will be quick in titles but long in descriptions since I'd like to refer to many things.

As a sum of my review; I think this series/drama will be a lead/guide for many other dramas. However, there are things that need to be changed/improved asap either. Here it's why:
+Great example for its production, character developments and casting (especially)
-But needs help with story details, character representations and scenario stages
*Still one of the bests of this year, so enjoy the show, honey!

+Character-ing
Well, I cannot say I'm so familiar and advanced-experienced with BL dramas but actually, real-life BL stories are not far away to me. (it as natural happens around us.) As far as I observe and believe, this is love above all; and the one harder to find, precious to keep. That's why I love how each character is unique/built differently--till the point they are and during the process we watched. In simple words, It's awesome that each one has changed, developed and the story base didn't fail while introducing them to us, unlike the other dramas putting labels like features-making leads noticeable for their sexual choices.
I always appreciate the diversity of couples in a drama when they are built as nicely as the lead couple.
Well, I actually love all, even though I personally had some doubtful thoughts about each, judged and questioned at certain points but it's understandable when you see them as the representation of types of relationships and the drama shows how personalities differ the relation, not sexes/genders.
Disappointingly, the development of the character Kinn wasn't enough or not shown enough; neither was their relationship with Porsche. It developed for Porsche, for his side, his character and his way. Not gonna give spoilers but trust issues are essential for every relationship, regardless of sexes and sexual relations; how deep it can go and how confusing/compelling it might lead the relationship is the deal for a drama, and I wanted to see this dilemma in the lead couple, how Porsche handles his first boyfriend and how they struggle but get over the trust issue.

+As the topic goes for the Story...
Just, in the beginning, I'd like to say that making a drama full of BL romance doesn't make it 'a great example of how homosexuality should be presented'. As we portray this in its own prepared environment, it will still be seen as alien, different, and far to the people-community-society. Not because we need the approval of all, but we in fact need to convey some essentials to the next generations who are risen by screens not parents anymore. And serving a BL lead couple within an environment where everyone is into far-less same relation, not helping. We should have seen some women characters or better -sisters of the characters, regardless of their sexual orientations, some heterosexual couples as friends or family quarters not just as parents. But well I think this is a common approach for BLs, yet this drama had great potential for this variety of relations and it would have been awesome.

As the continuation of the lead couple development conversation 1 paragraph above, additionally what I've mentioned there and as a reference to the right above paragraph about how we should portray this topic for the next generations; the drama should have been expressed with less sexuality then it tended to be seen. Not to say decreasing it, nope, if the director wants; just increase it; doesn't matter. But it should've been careful about how the sexual climaxes are built within the scenario. It got better in the last episodes when it's served with the action-based stages but still... It's understandable that characters are shaping their relations first with sexual tension when you think how hard it might be to find the right one/love for you as for many aspects in a community like that (even though it portrayed as it's like a piece of cake...)
-wanna add something real quick: for all characters in the drama, it's like they are all open to homosexual relationships since you know it's a BL drama and you expect that but actually if you look objectively, they are just how they should be, they found love first-then the gender comes... an important but hard to achieve tiny fine detail

+After story-sexuality is mentioned, the Production and Cast&Acting...
I guess this is the best part!
I mean this is why I watched actually.
The production with its cinematography, scenes, clothes, details, setting, colours, casting... just awesome, felt advanced-professional lead-high quality; a great example!
Not even a scene was dumb, despite the hard scenes like action and sex.

Last but not least... acting.
I'm speechless.
How perfect each actor suits their characters and how good they performed...
You can truly feel them, understand and question.
Especially the chemistry they all have... You know in some dramas you feel -the friend group's- their energy and that's what makes you closer with the drama as if you're there or you know them personally. If the acting wasn't good that and the chemistry I felt in the drama among them and between the actors and their characters, I don't think I'd keep up with that storyline.
And even if I decided to watch again in the future, as if I miss let's say, I'd do that just for the perfect acting. And of course, I'm planning to watch the other dramas of the actors.asap.

Enjoy the show!

It's entertaining, but looks like a fanfiction.

You know I remember when the first teasers started to get out, around December 2020, it was almost 1 year and a half to be released and it took me months to finish because it was so... weird. The main storyline around the end started to look so confusing like they tried so hard to make a plot twist that end up being pathetic.
My personal opinion is that VegasPeat could have been bigger, their story was so interesting but was very hushed, in 3 episodes everything happened, just seemed off. And talking about VegasPeat I can't help but pinpoint that Bible and Build acting most of the time were better than Mile and Apo, especially Mile's.
But I have to say, Be On Cloud did an amazing job at the promotion, the cast is very attractive as a whole and that helped, the absorb time of teasers and pré release promotion and now the KinnPorsche World Tour makes it so fun being in this as a fandom. So yeah I can easily tell 3 thai BLs from the last 2 years that's better than Kinnporsche, but none of them is as fun to follow as a fandom as Kinnporsche is.

Problematic yet impossible not to like (?)

Okay, this series is very well produced, their acting is flawless, the soundtrack is amazing (Jeff Satur did the best job), the story is appealing, the characters are absurdly hot. I know that a story that happens in the mafia is not supposed to be all flowers and cute romance, but the couples are WAY too toxic with each other. They hurt each other phisically and emotionally in all ways possible. ALL WAYS. Most characters suck, meaning they are complete manipulative assholes with everyone and the rest are very naïve and suffer a lot. But somehow, even though you know it's all wrong, you can't stop watching it. At least this was my experience, because I've seen a lot of people romanticizing all that problematic shit but let's get to the point: I recommend it for those who can understand that some things are very, very wrong in this show, but can appreciate the rest which is handsome gays, fighting scenes, good romantic scenes (ok, I mean sex), plot twists, guns (ok, I mean sex) and Jeff Satur (and I mean his voice and his hotness).

I'm on your side

First BL i watch and i think the bar got to high. I love it. I was completely obssesed with them from the end of episode 1 and i almost spoiled myself on social media because i really wanted to know what was going to happened and that only happened to me with "Alchemy of souls" (I got spoiler so hard on this one lol my own fault)

Kinn and Porsche have beyond this world chemistry since the first minute when Porsche takes Kinn's watch and Kinn is done for. After Vegas tried to kiss him in that bathroom we got one of the hottest and best scenes ever when their relationship really started. As usual when the main leads got together the tension between them dissapeared and could make the drama drag a little. That doesn't happen here because, besides the main story full of plot twist, we got something in the last 3 episodes that got me in a chokehold: Vegas and Pete relationship.

I'm still processing everything about them. I'm not sure how to really feel. At the end they seems to be ok together and of course their sex scene is incredible hot but... is Pete really mentally ok for this? it could be stockholm's syndrome, Vegas tortured him during days and got him prisioner. Before being able to escape, he seems to regret everything that happened between them. He even wants to die.

If i could really try to make a point for a happy ending with them, maybe Pete was confused with his feelings and seems to regret everything because, why are you wanna be with someone who torture you? At the end, he decides that he loves him no matter what so he is not going to think about it anymore, it is what it is. Vegas also seems to understand everything he did wrong when he tell him that he can go if he wants to. So idk i think i will keep thinking about this for a while, it was that intense.

Tankhun could be crazy but i was cheering him up when he was the only one trusting Porsche when Tawan try to make him the mole and after when he knew something was happening to Pete. In both this times he seems the only sane one tbh.

Another great point? The main song is sooo beautiful and the moments we hear it were so well chosen. I already got it on my playlist.

So after all this why i don't give it a 10? Well, i try to be very picky with my 10. Everything have to be tight in terms of plot, acting, development and romance to give it a 10. In this case there was some things that makes me takes that half a point:

-The acting was great overall (Special mention to Bible Wichapas who was perfect on his portraying of Vegas, sooo good) but some was a little bad so i couldn't get in that part of the story.

-In the last episodes, Porsche calling Vegas for help and trusting him more than Kinn pissed me off. Specially because it happened after Kinn ask him for a fresh start without secrets. I found it out of
character tbh.

-I didn't got hook up in the first episode, the end of the first episode makes me keep watching because the chemistry but i wasn't so sure about the rest. It pick up after through, but all my 10s i
was done for in the first episode minute 1 lol.

overall, it was a fantastic and thrilling ride and i recommend this drama to everyone. I'm going to miss them a lot ♥♥♥

Intense

When I first heard of this drama coming out, you best believe I went nuts.
The cast looked great, the trailers looked delicious, and some things felt like I shouldn't have even been in the room watching.

This BL is downright filthy (in the best way).
Very adult, and not a soft BL like many of us are used to. Touching, sexual tension, fighting, budding romance, but with darker topics (a trigger warning to many that don't like said topics).

Trigger Warning: Drugs, kidnapping, violence, etc.

Aside from some questionable story decisions, I was absolutely hooked on this drama and left wanting and craving more.
It's been a year or more since I watched this, and I still think about them.

SO so steamy. And worth it.

Was not what I expected.

This series to me had a lot of potential the moment the first trailer was aired.

A lot of BL fans loved the idea of this new series with it's new storyline that we hadn't seen before.
The storyline of a BL couple that wasn't focused on university but a storyline with a bit rougher background: The mafia.
The first trailer showed a series that not just acting wise but also set wise was really well thought of. I kept rewatching the trailer over and over again.

Sadly they had to postpone shooting the series itself because of Covid. In that time period the series became a bit less of a novelty because more companies realized that BL focused on university was good and all but there were also fans who wanted something different. More BL's aired with different storylines and by the time that Kinnporsche was going to air it wasn't that special anymore.

The final trailer of the series came out and I had to do my best not to dislike the series based on the trailer. Because I couldn't dislike a series because I liked the first trailer more than the new trailer. So I did my best to watch the series with an open mind.

The beginning was really good and I can't say a lot of bad things about it.

I saw a lot of people ranting about the non-consensual scenes in the series and I have to agree that: yes it is messed up and if that would happen in real life that person belongs in jail but this isn't real life. It is a series. A series supposed to be focused on the mafia. It was a bit romanticized how the mafia worked. There were in the end some scenes that were a little bit more realistic but overall the series was really romanticized. So that people were all discussing how the kissing etc. was non-consensual didn't really faze me. I had actually expected more mafia-ish things in this series but it wasn't that present. There was one scene of Vegas, that if you have watched the series you will know, that I really liked that showed a bit more of what the mafia family was capable of.

I have to applaud the actors for their acting though. They really gave their all, literally and figuratively. I think overall it is a matter of personal tastes. I feel that they were trying to make up for not being as 'original' anymore with the large amount of sex scenes and nude ness if you can call it that. They went really naked and despite me not really liking that they really went far for this series I have to give credit where credit is due.

It was also nice that most of the cast stayed in the series despite the delay. Some actors' roles were changed from what they were originally supposed to be but other than that I was really happy to see them staying on.

The storylines from the side characters were really interesting and some were fun to watch and others were heartbreaking. When you know, you know.

I have read the original novel and I can say that the series is less bad. In the book Porsche has a big temper issue and gets angry really quickly. Kinn isn't much better in the book.

All in all I did like the series but it is definitely not my favorite one of this year.

Having read the novel, Be On Cloud did a great job in adapting the story to a series it is much darker intense and greater than the actual novel. Other people might say that some only watch it because of the sx scenes but it is much more than that. The casting is also perfect Apo did a great job portraying Porsche. A character whos strong on the outside but has a weak spot for Kinn 👏🏻 what really shocked me is Bible. When i found out that this is his first acting gig i was dumbfounded like he did a good job. His emotions when he was begging Pete to stay on ep 13 was so raw i thought he had some acting experience but i was wrong 👏🏻 I usually get cringe with other Thai BL series because of cliche scenes and chessy lines but this series is a breath of fresh air. The ost also is stuck in my head especially Jeff's song. His voice is just wow. The musical scoring for the instense scenes were also on point. Cant wait for season 2 hopefully they keep up with the hype and expectations 👏🏻
