Every time my friend says she would like to recommend a bl I ask her one question: Is it Taiwanese or Thai? If it’s the former I will definitely watch it but it’s the latter I will be hesitant to because for me Thai bl is usually just cute boys being cute. ?

Note: First time writing a review I will probably mess this one up. ?

When recommending KP, my friend convinced me it’s not typical Thai bl, it’s way different and it will blow my mind( surely did but not in the good way though). When I saw the trailer and boooy I was hooked couldn’t wait to start watching it. The trailer promised mafia stuff what could possibly go wrong with that? Later found out, the series is titled KP for a reason, yeah everything is about Kinn and Porsche. They get at most 80% screen time. You don’t get a chance to know the other characters better so much that when they are killed off you don’t know whether to feel sad or say good riddance, coz you just don’t care about them. Don’t get me started on the pacing. I keep asking myself why so many unnecessary scenes take too long.

Plot
If you are expecting one solid story that makes sense nah you won’t get that. But if you are looking for hot men doing it there is surely a lot of action ? you would like. ?

Characters
Porsche: I’m sorry but he is just stupid. He claims he is a heavy drinker but gets stupidly drunk after few drinks and makes himself susceptible to rape( except when it’s Kinn his love interest doing they make it seem it’s anything but that). He is so kind and forgiving, he will forgive way before you even apologize ?. No matter how many lies Kinn tells him, calls him a slut, Kinn just need to hug and kiss him and all is well. IMO there is nothing more to Porsche than being Kinn trophy bf.

Kinn: The son of the main family which is supposedly the main mafia family. Except for a few occasions I don’t see him doing any mafia stuffs. His cousin Vegas keeps complaining that he can’t measure up to him but I keep asking myself measure up to what exactly????IMO Vegas mafia character is way more believable than him. He sometimes also make the most nonsensical decisions and don’t tell his boyfriend what’s he doing and later blames the bf for not trusting him ??‍♀️.

VegasPete: The more I watch the more I prefer this couple to the main one. Their love story is nonsensical to me but it’s more interesting. There is at least tension but with the main couple everything is so easy. The main couple’s conflicts like I said earlier on they are resolved way to easily with just a kiss.

Porchay: awww what a sweet child. That’s what he is. Typical teenager head over heels for a stranger. Even when he later on founds out that this stranger lied to him, got close to him just to investigate his family his only concern is whether or not this stranger ever loved him.

Kim: Kinn’s brother also Porchay love interest. This one na detective of the main family, his investigation makes up just 1% screen time. You would think someone doing sth that actually matters to the plot would get more screen time but noooo.

Anyhow: With all this complaints I should have dropped it by now but I won’t. Such strange loyalty but I always finish what I’ve started. Besides I have fan fic to run to for canon compliant stuff so I can get more character study and whatnot. Fan fic has a way of making these bland characters seem more interesting.

Won’t be fair to not add things I liked.
I think the actors did their best. As compared to other Thai bl I have seen they are more talented and their chemistry is amazing.
I also like how on screen they do seem comfortable with each other during intimate scenes.
The sex scenes are hot. ?
The music is fine too.
