Not a 10/10 serie but definitely a memorable one that the BL industry won’t be able to forget.

Boy..what a ride. I’m feeling so empty because I loved watching this bl and I really like the actors as well. After ITSAY I thought I wouldn’t see a BL so well made but KinnPorsche really did that. The acting, the OST, direction, photography, everything was SO WELL DONE. It was the same level as ITSAY for me, although it’s not perfect. So well, be prepared. This review will be a loooong one.

First, What I didn’t like:

KimChay didn’t existed in the novel and although I liked them here, I think they weren’t that necessary, especially because we have much more complex and intense couples to develop. They were pretty cute. Also Kim is SO HOT. But I think some of their scenes could have been released later, with a spin off video.

Also, what made KinnPorsche a 9/10 serie instead of a 10/10 for me is that they wanted to adapt a long story, with too much characters and complex couples with only 14 episodes. They also wasted their time with some unnecessary scenes and when we needed a more time for the important parts, they rushed a little. A lot of people complained about too much scenes of KinnPorsche but they are the main couple and main characters, they need to be well developed. Instead of them, we had much more unnecessary scenes as the whole ghost thing with Tawan, like please. Kim’s scenes investigating was for what? Also Porschay is cute but he had more scenes in the end that he should. VegasPete were the most damaged with all of this as their story were complety rushed.

As VegasPete were rushed, their story looked even more problematic. Pete was a difficult character to understand, his choice was difficult to understand and it’s hard to believe that he fell in love with Vegas with so less scenes of them. Vegas changed too fast as well. He was beating Pete in one episode and in the same episode worrying for him. Vegas said he saw in Pete’s eyes that Pete liked when Vegas lose control like i’m sorry…when he saw that? I couldn’t see this lol Like everything about them happened too fast and it shouldn’t because they are really complex.

What I liked:

They really made a good adaptation for Kinn and Porsche. They made Kinn a more likeable character, they removed most of the SA scenes and instead we had much more cute and likeable scenes of them. I wish they made Tawan plot different because this part really made Kinn look stupid as a character, but well, I won’t complain too much because at least I liked him waaaay better here than in the novel. Actually, Kinn was a very attractive character for me here. He loved Porsche but also gave a choice for Porsche to follow his own path. Kinn in the novel wouldn’t do that and that’s why I loved him here. Porsche as well is more likeable here because in the novel he was really annoying and also very homophobic. Also, Kinn and Porsche scenes were so well done that it was insane, looked so real most of the times. They were like a hot and cute couple and ApoMile killed with their chemistry and good acting. I didn’t like Kinnporsche in the novel but loved them in the serie.

VegasPete scenes were too heavy for me in the novel so i’m glad they removed the multiple rape scenes, this made the couple look more likeable for me, although still problematic. Also, BibleBuild had a awesome chemistry as well and omg Bible KILLED this character, he was made for Vegas. It’s hard to believe that it was his first job as actor.

I think all characters in KinnPorsche are really charismatic, this is one of the most positive things in the BL for me. I LOVED THANKUN!! Every one said he was crazy but he was the most intelligent of them all. Arm, Tay and the others were good as well, unfortunately we had less scenes of them. But my favorite ones were definitly Vegas and Kinnporsche tho. Vegas is really hard to not like. He was evil, smart, manipulative, charming. A true mafia. His story is also likeable, although a little cliche. I think it’s obvious to say that he is the best character in KinnPorsche. But I also liked Kinn and Porsche. They were pretty attractive for me, even with their dumb scenes.

Also the ACTING. Almost all actors here did a pretty decent job, especially Bible, Apo and Mile, they were phenomenal. The CHEMISTRY is also a good point. ApoMile were insane and BibleBuild were also really good.

As I said before, it’s also a pretty well done serie with beautiful scenes. The cinematography was on point and they made use of colors to give meaning to the characters and their scenes. They also made use of a lot of symbologies, they knew what they were doing here.

The plot is also interesting, although the mafia part it can be not that used. The story about Porsche’s family changed here in the serie and althought it may look forced, this for me it was clearly a tip that we may see a S2. Also, I think everybody could see that Kinn’s father it’s not that good as he want to appear and I think S2 will be about that. He’s a very smart and manipulative guy. But probably Porsche will find out the true and Kinn and Porsche will fight about that. Could Kinn trust Porsche, betray his father and be at Porsche’s side? We will see.

In the end, even not being a 10/10 serie, KinnPorsche is definitely a memorable one that neither I nor the BL industry will be able to forget. If you didn’t watch, I really recommend. It’s not perfect, but definitly enjoyable. Almost perfect.

PS: I will miss the cast :( let’s hope for S2.
