A total joyride
I rewatched it multiples time.🔥🔥🔥It is an original story but in gmmtv most bl even if they're original, gmmtv makes a novel for them to make more money. The novel is basically the script but with much more details and story , somethings written in the novel won't come out in the show itself. The novel writers are the script writers.

Captivating plot, intense chemistry and amazing soundtrack.
The dynamics between the couples, friends, and siblings were the highlight. First and Khao—no words! Since The Eclipse, they’ve been showing insane chemistry, in addition to being very talented actors. But the one who surprised me the most was Joong. His character was really interesting, and I think he played it very well. In fact, this was my favorite couple for him, paired with Dunk. Their dynamic, with opposite personalities, was so fun to watch. Even though I think the drama spent a little too much time on Style winning over Fadel, their relationship was pretty funny.Dunk, on the other hand, still needs to improve a lot in acting, especially in the more emotional scenes. Meanwhile, Joong and Khao were amazing as assassin brothers. It was great to see the difference in Bison’s personality when he was “working” versus when he was with Kant. Kant’s profession as a tattoo artist, his criminal past, and the way he cared for his brother made him a really compelling character.
For me, Kant’s big secret was what kept me the most engaged in the drama. I was really eager to see how it would be revealed and how the other characters would react, and I loved the way it played out. Just when I thought the story might slow down, the final episode surprised me. I never expected them to actually show everything that happened during those five years!
Another part I really loved was Dunk’s relationship with his father—it was so sweet. And, of course, I can’t forget to mention the make-out scenes—there were plenty, but they were all pretty unique.
Also, I absolutely loved the songs chosen for the series! So many of them stuck with me that I added them to my playlist to listen to later.
Oh, and after all that, I was left craving one of Heart’s burgers!

YOU SHOULD WATCH
The Heart Killers is a BL series with a unique storyline and some unexpected plot twists. I’ve been really enjoying it so far, especially since I’m a big fan of action-packed BLs. Joong totally nailed his role, his action scenes were impressive! I’m not sure if he used a stunt double or not, but either way, the fight choreography looked solid.Dunk, on the other hand, had his funny moments stalking/chasing Fadel (Joong). Khaotung was amazing as always; his eyes alone can deliver a whole range of emotions. First also did a great job, though I have to say the fake tattoos were a bit too obvious, it kinda pulled me out of the moment.
Production-wise, this series really delivers. You can tell the team put in a lot of effort and resources. The cinematography is clean and sharp, and the OST fits the vibe of the series perfectly.
If you're looking for a BL with a mix of action, romance, comedy, and drama, The Heart Killers is definitely worth checking out.

very interesting, but...
Okay so. It's an interesting premise of hitmen, police officer in disguise and carefree mechanic. The opening song is really catchy, and it's really my first time enjoying an ost so much.Khaotung needs to be applauded for his amazing performance, the way he delivers the emotions, the dialogues and action sequence, it's really worth all the hype he's been getting. First too, does an amazing job at keeping up with his partner and even going beyond during some scenes. He really knows how to cry, i'll tell you that. Joong and Dunk, as much as they've improved from hidden agenda and star on my mind, their acting really does get a bit choppy here and there. Don't read this wrong, I'm not saying that they're making the series bad, but sometimes it really shows that they're acting, you know? How do I say this, for FirstKhao scenes, there's this raw play of emotions and it really feels real, but JoongDunk, I'm personally not able to connect with them as much.
Joong has a really good screen presence on his own, and the action scenes were amazing. Dunk too has certainly improved from a single expression to a wider range of emotions. But as I said, their screentime together wasn't fully enjoyable for me in the recent episodes. The initial 3-4 episodes, I was hooked by them, but now it really feels dull.

Not bad
Story was not bad a bit drawn out but was interesting.I read a review that said some of it was so cringy and was embarrassed for the Actor, omg had to agree. But it still made you laugh.
First and Khaotung are brilliant actors and has bl down to an art. They really held the show together. Bison was a bit to soft but him and Kant was real.
Joong is a great actor and adapts well to his character Fadel. Would love to see him with a new partner to see him shine. Oh the eyes, wish I was younger 😂
Well Dunk he really needs acting classes, he tries but is so stiff, if your not comfy doing bl’s dont do them, no one will think less of you. He cannot even pretend to enjoy the S#x scenes. He is so tense. (Have to say whoever thinks Joong and Dunk are really together in real life needs their eyes looked at, come on, look at the kissing, Joong can kiss Dunk so ridget.). Let them be just friends and get different partner for the set.
Would love to see AJ and JJ in their own shows as main cast, they are good. I liked Keen, would like to see Pepper in more shows.

Fun lighthearted show to watch- though Dunk's acting was cringy at time
I really enjoyed the show. It's very different from other thai bl shows because it has a unique plot unlike the cliche college students plots which is overdone, in my opinion. This show started really strong and kept laughing at every episode. However, towards the middle of the series, it felt like the story was becoming meh and I was bored in some episodes. nonetheless, towards the end, the show picked up where it left off and started becoming entertaining again. Bison (Khao) is probably the best actor in the cast. His face is so expressive. When he cries, I cry. when he's happy, I'm happy. He pours so much soul into his acting that it almost doesn't feel fake. Kant (First) and fadel (Joong)'s acting were okay. I had a hard time however connecting with Style (Dunk)'s character, he obviously still need to do some work on his facial expressions. he's also a very awkward kisser and it's hard for me to feel like he likes Fadel when he's kissing him. I get pissed all the time when he kisses with his eyes open, which is 99% of the time. Don't get me wrong, I like Style/ Dunk as a character and as a person, it still doesn't negate the fact that I found some of his scenes in the show super cringy due to his poor acting. Kant and Bison's kisses felt the most natural and their relationship had the MOST CHEMISTRY. It's very apparent that this pair feels comfortable with one another.other than that the show was pretty good. My favorite episode of the show was the last episode, it definitely ended wholesomely.********Minor Spoiler down below********
The reason why I love the last episode is because the ending was super cute and melted my heart. Even Style's acting felt a bit better. Like, What do you mean your man bought you a whole restaurant because it's your dream???????what do you mean your man let you move in with him, refused to take rent from you nor any financial contribution for the home, then sponsored a whole trip for you to visit your dream country???? HELLOOOOO. we love thoughtful and caring men over here!!!!!Like, really !!!! What do you mean your man not only never missed a prison visit day to see you but also took a job for FREE as a volunteer TWICE a week just so he can spend more time while ALSO trying to manage a FULL-TIME job in the outside to secure a future for you and him?????? bro, I thought this show was gonna end in a wedding but it didnt, however, I still was not disappointed by the final episode. Both couples were super cute and adorable in this episode.

It’s okay positives and negatives
I watched this series after it finished airing based on it being highly recommended on TikTok. I was expecting it to be better than it was. My first mistake was not realizing it wasn’t a NC17. It had all the elements of a great show but still somehow missed the mark. I think the failure is in the script and editing.Negatives:
The editing is sloppy, especially with music. The music often jumps in unexpectedly and cuts off abruptly. It’s jarring enough to take you out of the scene.
In the second half of the show, there are scenes that seem to run on and on to the point where you lose interest. A 10 minute scene that could easily have been 5. I found myself skipping ahead. I almost didn’t finish it.
There are so many scenes where the couple is sitting, side by side, and talking for extended periods of time with nothing else of interest going on. It makes for many boring scenes where the dialog is nice but unbearable to watch. I was bored out of my skull.
Pros
This shows a different path to love than most BLs where it’s meet, struggle, find love, sex. It shows a different dynamic that exists in gay relationships.
The plot is interesting enough.
Nice balance of screen time between the two couples and both couples had good on screen chemistry.

It's a Comedy BL with Action, not the other way around
The Heart Killers promised to bring together a cocktail of thrilling suspense, intricate plot twists, and commendable performances. This drama should have dove into the dark depths of human emotions and explore the devastating impact of betrayal and revenge. It did not do all thatStory:
The storyline, while gripping in parts, tends to meander and lose focus at times. This is one of those series that really needed less romance and more plot. The plot had random jumps which needed more exposition. Despite these gaps, the story manages to keep the audience engaged with its unexpected twists and turns.
Characterisations and Acting:
Pretty good characterizations. As an older sibling, I related a lot to Fadel (also, he was the only one with a brain cell). I liked First's acting best; he seriously made Kant a believable character. Out of all the characters, I loved Style best. We need more crack-headed characters in BL. Dunk's acting is a tad bit stiff in the emotional parts, but he does carry Style's comic-ness very well, and that's not easy to do.
I might have started the show for FirstKhaotung, but stuck for JoongDunk. Will be keeping an eye on Joong's upcoming projects. Also I am on the "switch around fixed CPs" boat now. I wanted to see more of JoongFluke.
This show has some very interesting supporting characters could have been better developed. How did Mother become the villain she is? What happened to Keen's poor boyfriend after randomly getting kidnapped at gunpoint? How did Keen even get into this mess? Did Babe ever find out the shady stuff his brother got into? How was Fadel's ex willing to marry someone he knew nothing of? Can I get some more scenes of Captain Chris, preferably without a shirt?
Music:
While I don't usually pay much attention to series soundtracks, I have to say that the intro song by Khaotung is a bop. It fits the theme very well and adds to the overall atmosphere of the series.
Rewatch Value:
While the drama was engaging to watch, its rewatch value is relatively low . The mystery wasn't that much of a mystery.
Representation:
What I think was the best-done part was the queerness of it. Jojo didn't mince anything. GMMTV BLs used to be very prudish about intimate stuff. When *that* scene came on, my lunch literally fell out of my mouth.
As a queer person myself, I am very thankful Jojo put good representation.
Overall:
The Heart Killers is not a masterpiece, but it is a decent watch for those who enjoy romance with action and a side of suspense

Had me hooked at first, but it fizzled out
Watched this series back in winter when it was airing, but the mood swing from initial excitement to apathy by the end kept me from commenting at the time.Had me hooked at first! Those first four episodes were insane—I was rewatching them before new ones dropped, never done that before. The soundtrack’s banging, the vibe’s super stylish, like some cool action flick. Dunk as Style? Total blast, so fun and charming. Khaotung’s Bison is slick as hell, way better than his annoying role in The Eclipse—dude’s come a long way. First nails that sweet, naive vibe again, and I didn’t think I’d buy it twice, but damn, he pulls it off.
But around episode five, it started losing me. Style’s jokes got old fast, just the same vibe over and over. Bison and Kant are still cool, but they didn’t top their early spark. The ending? Didn’t even feel like an ending, just meh. Loved the start, but it fizzled out.

There's more to it! Just watch and you'll learn.
What "I" like the most about the series is the way First Kanaphan acts so different from his previous roles as well as from what he is in real life (I still can't believe the step up of his character, really!). Aside from that, I'm loving the cinematography, the soundtracks and the direction the series offers as it brings you a classic American romantic comedy personified by the actors chemistry and acting. It might not be great overall since but it's still giving . And definitely, it gives you an idea about prominent figures in history that lured you to know more about them and the literature and psychology part of the series. I can say it offers not just what the eyes can see, the ears can hear and the body can feel but it also open minds on the different aspects of life and love. Simply, my anticipation rise as soon as a new chapter unfolds. It's worth to watch y'all!Was this review helpful to you?
