The soundtrack was good
I loved episide 0 for the most part and was so excited to find out a series was in the works. Oh the let down ...sigh...Episode One I could accepted begrudgingly, Epidodes 2-9 probably should have been cut in half, a lot of unnecessary filler and back andforth, Episodes 10-12 were acceptable again. An 8 episode series would have been better. That is saying a lot because I usually am disappointed with them but in this case it may have been beneficial!
After all the waiting I expected so much more. It wasnt horrendous just long and tedious. If you watch it just don't expect to much and you may not be as disappointed!

Liked it but....
I usually dont write 1st episode reviews but there were a few things that kinda bug me. I like the overall idea of the story but it isnt very realistic so far.My issues:
1. When Kim and Kamol hook up the first night there is
zero explanation of what is about to happen. Kamol
asks Kim 3 times if he is drunk which is great
because he is making sure he is able to give consent
But does Kim REALLY know what he is consenting
to? Not really sure he does.
2. Can it please be a bit more realistic? The cuff
was so loose not sure what it's purpose really was.
No talk of safe word. And really in both people they
showed a bit more marking than there should be
kinda borders on torture not pleasure and the wrist
marks where did they come from?
3. The kissing was weird. Neither of them looked like
they'd ever kissed before.
I will definately continue this show. I think it has a lot of potential. I may just have to try to overlook the lack of research on the BDSM side of it but hopefully at least the kissing will get better and there will be some sort of plot. So far it was basically an intro to the characters and the BDSM. Keeping my fingers crossed.
UPDATE: Well I finished it. I kept hoping it would get better but it really didn't. Ithink I may have enjoyed this more had I not watched KinnPorsche first. This show kinda seemed like a low budget knock off of that show. The acting was awkward moreso on Kim's part than Komol's. But Kim mostly seemed indifferent even as he was saying he wasn't.
The BDSM that was part of it's billing really only came into play in episode one, kinda mentioned a few times afterward but that was it. So if that is part of your reason for watching this show you will be disappointed. 50 Shades of Grey had more in it than this show.
If you haven't watched a lot of BL's and haven't watched KinnPorsche you may enjoy this series but for me it just didn't check all the boxes.
