The Heart Killers

Those in the writing room… yall pmo

What I liked:
First and Khao ate down as per usual, they are in a league of their own. I loved Bison’s emotions and how he feels everything so strongly and Khao emulates that as an actor so well. From looking in love, to crying, to doing both at the same time he really was the standout in this show. First also did so well and I loved how well he showcased the back and forth emotions Kant was feeling.

Episode 8 was really good because of Kant and Bisons journey to being vulnerable with each other again and that leads me to a probably controversial opinion… I wish the show was only centered on Kant and Bison which I know was probably not possible because it was based on a book I think but a girl can dream.

What I did not like:
Now don’t get me wrong Joong did really well and Dunk’s acting was not as bad as some are saying but his character lacked little to no depth and I get he was meant to be comedic relief but it just got so boring after a while. The dynamic between Style and Fadel was so surface level with little depth and given Khao and First’s performance it was definitely a disservice to the show. I wish Style’s character had more to him something that really grabbed my attention but it was meh.

The show would switch between really good to amateur hour and don’t get me started on whoever is in charge of the music because why is it the one scene we get of Style crying you have this goofy track in the background. That scene also did not match Style’s energy at all and I don’t get the point of it because that man barely showed fear.

Anyway GMMTV continues to piss me off into 2025 so what’s new.

Weird premise, familiar feeling — present but never quite there

The setup is genuinely odd in the best way — an undercover tattoo artist, a burger joint fronting as a hitman operation, and a one-night stand who turns out to be at the center of the investigation. That combination should be a lot of fun.
And yet. FirstKhaotung work well enough together and individual scenes deliver, but I never found my way in emotionally. There's a distance to the whole thing that's hard to shake — like watching through glass rather than being inside the story. JoongDunk as the second pair don't bridge that gap either. Both couples have their moments, but moments aren't enough to build a lasting impression on.

Oh how I regret watching this

Just go and watch any two couple living together and making out every now and then because the story that started very interesting lost it's way half way through and the whole show is about 2 couples talking and having s*x...

It's already very very predictable right from the start but to make it more boring by having a few episodes in the middle full of absolutely nothing at all except for some random scenes of the 4 leads is a bit too much.

I have to admit one thing however, the cast was great and everyone did his job impeccably, but be that as it may that didn't save the series for me.

The only character I was interested in was Fadel, who had the same facial expressions for almost the whole show and when he started to change a bit I had already lost interest in continuing.

I'm not saying this was a bad drama per se but it was boring with no story, however if you like the cast/couple and just want to see them onscreen, you will enjoy because the whole show is the 4 leads acting all lovey dovey together ~~

i love this episode!!!

I really like this episode!!! because there's a lot of cuteness in episode two. still with Kant trying to get Bison, Style is still trying to make Fadel melt to him. i like how persistent Style is in following Fadel everywhere. KantBison also gives us a sweet scene, which makes us feel blushing. when I saw the scene where Kant felt jealous of Bison because Bison was with another man (Tawan) I felt scared because in that scene Kant was quite scary. I really really liked it when the two of them danced at the bowling alley, I felt the cuteness in this scene, I also laughed at it. But, when I found out that Kant was deliberately pretending to be jealous when he saw Bison and Tawan, and paid Tawan for it... I was annoyed!!! but I understood, because Kant was on a mission and it couldn't be that fast for him to really like Bison and I hope bison doesn't fall in love with kant too soon, BECAUSE I LOVE BISON SO MUCH!!! I don't want my son to get hurt because of a man!!!
And in this episode FadelStyle is hot and sexy. I love the scene in the Sauna, I can feel how awkward Fadel feels but also can't resist Style's treatment. AND HERE STYLE IS SO HOT!!! GOOD JOB DUNK!!!
until the closing scene of the episode, I was quite surprised to see Fadel's scene in his room (I can't explain it) but I really understand why he is like that, because... who can resist the charm of Style?!!

I'm really waiting for more scenes between Kant and Babe, Bison and Fadel also Kant and Style. I want to know more about their relationship.

Wasted potential

The idea of the story was really nice but I guess besides the idea not much work was put into making script actually interesting.
Both couples are popular and good looking and they both usually have good chemistry on screen so proper script would make it a hit.
Instead I got kinda disappointed. Either this story doesn't fit them or maybe they didn't have enough time to properly record some scenes but bdsm FirstxKhao scene seemed so cringe that I couldn't watch it. I was actually bored of overusing s*x plots without any build up. It felt like director was just thinking "we need to show them "having sex" a lot and then we will add bdsm so it will sell". I should have checked the director tho. He also made Only Friends and apparently wanted to stick to "sex" concept. Well some people will like it probably but for me it lacks depth. Therefore although both couples are one of my favourites I dropped the series. I hope I'll be able to see them in another one with better story.

I did not like so much

When I found out that it would be inspired by Shakespeare's Taming of the Shrew, I immediately set off alarm bells. I thought, what does this story have to do with criminals and gays? The funny about this is story it's a woman who doesn't want to do what all women were supposed to do at the time: get married and have children.

Well, speaking of the story itself, another story full of holes and boring/weak plots from GMMTV. I hope they wake up this year because the competition is knocking on the door. Another thing is that they should sponsor acting classes for their actors. In several scenes I caught myself thinking I'm better than Dunk. It gets complicated, but I'm glad that's over because there were no more stories to tell. People keep discussing situations that I think have nothing to do with sex. Having or not having kissing scenes doesn't make a story better or worse. It's pure puritanism. Can someone watch two or four gays and want to be a puritan?

Something different from GMMTV...

Sometimes there is a mircale and GMMTV does take a risk and does something different. The first couple Kant & Bison did not catch most of the viewers, because it was not a romantic meeting of two persons. Kant did approach Bison for a reason, because he had a deal with the police and he wanted to clear his name. While Bison was fully in it from the beginning, Kant was just a calculating bastard :) The other couple if different. While Style did it first to get a car and help Kant, he pursued Fadel on his own after a while. Something klicked and he did forget the car and was serious for a change.

I would say Khaotung delivered a top notch performance, while First was mostly solid. Joong did the most usual as in any other show (starting off distant) and Dunk was much improved even when his over-acting sometimes was annoying and cringe. But this is only from the view of their relationsships. As hitmen they did not deliver at all.

Other than that, the story of the "Mom" was a bit shallow and not very indepth. It was over in an episode and I don't know I felt underwhelmed. The rest was ok, production quality was, as usual, excellent. Other than that I had not much connection to the whole show... something felt a bit off. I can't explain it, but I was not really in it. For me it was ok, the NC scenes were of course what the fangirls expected and they did not disappoint. Some people will of course tell you, that this is the best show ever, but of course, it's not. I guess lazy writing prevails which is typically in GMMTV tradtion. It's ok and GMMTV did take a risk, but I guess it payed off. At least for the actors it was a good development not playing the same stuff all over again, which I think is positive, but the story itself is lacking.

Edit: Also the tattoos are lacking... especially when you compare with people with real tattoos, so that was also a cost optimizing option to use foils instead painting.

One of my favorite series!

One of my favorite series!

As a FirstKhao fan, this show met all my expectations in every way. I loved seeing Khaotung as a ruthless hitman who turns into an absolute cutie whenever he's around First's character. Meanwhile, First's character, consumed by guilt, gradually gets caught up in the situation and spends the last six episodes trying to make amends.

Episode 6 is, by far, the best episode of the series for me.

I also discovered JoongDunk through this show and was immediately won over by their chemistry. Dunk, in particular, plays his role perfectly.

However, I have to say that what truly sets The Heart Killers apart is its soundtrack. Every song is carefully selected by P'Jojo and fits each scene perfectly. Even a year later, the soundtrack is still among my favorites on Spotify.

I highly recommend this series without hesitation.
