I didn't have high expectations for this series, so I'm really positively surprised by the first episode. The acting isn't cringe, there are no funny sound effects, the OST is nice and the characters are not forcely over the top. And I really appreciate that we get to see more of Thailands beautiful countryside š I'm really looking forward to the next episode.
I don't understand why people say they don't watch it because they've seen some spoilers which are not like they want the storyline to happen. Yes, spoilers may influence you but they never tell the whole story and perhaps there will be changes you didn't expect before.
In my opinion, the Special Episode was okay. It was definitely not what I've expected but that is okay for me. I like being surprised. But for me the plot wasn't really well designed... there are so many plotholes and especially the beginning felt so rushed. They wanted too much for one episode. I really liked the series itself but they could have made this special Episode better.
But I really liked that they gave every side character time to shine: the little girl with her speech, the dragon dance of the granny, Tattoo and Aran had their funny and cute little scenes, Hope and Save too and even Nang and Hoy got their special time. I really appreciate this.
And of course YinWar did a great job, too. I felt so sad for Jacks disbelief and mental problems at the end.
Enjoyable show, but the last two episodes were my least favorite. 11 was kind of dull and 12 fell flat with the…
For me, I really liked especially the prison-time. I get your point that this time didn't add something to the whole plot but it was worth for the character development. Actually you know that a time in prison feels long and you have fears of being forgotten etc. But it is something else to watch and witness their fears and doubts during that time. That is one important point that I really appreciate in this series. They give the characters time to doubt, time to love, time to trust and time to grieve so that the audience can follow their growth. Maybe the plot isn't for everyone (I loved it too) but the characters are very well written .
Very nice list of the details you observed in this BL drama. Yeah it's great that they take care in adding little…
I totally agree with you! FadelStyle will be one of my all time favourite characters š like you have already said they are both like the contrary of each other but this is what attracts them. I really appreciate that thk gave the characters the chance to show their character development. You get their background history, they show their fears and doubts. They gave us to characters who hide their inner feelings and weakness behind a curtain like it's unfortunately often in the real world too. I think that many of us can relate to this Situation that you have to smile even if you want to cry or that you have fear to show your emotions because you fear the reaction of others. You don't want to bother your closed one so you build up a wall. I think that is also one of the reasons why many fans say that they came for FirstKhaotung but stayed for JoongDunk because they've got the more interesting and relatable dynamics

Thank you š„° I really like it when series pay attention to details and we get well developped characters š
I only feared that people might be scared of my long comments. When I love something I'm always a little bit over the top š I want to talk about it and share my thoughts š
We have arrived at the final episode and I canāt believe it that there will be no FadelStyle and KantBison next Wednesday who will cheer me up in the middle of the week :( I donāt know how to feel about this episode because on the one hand it was a well-deserved ending, on the other hand Iām so sad that itās the end ^^° Here are my thoughts about the last episode of the Heart Killers: What I liked: - That we didnāt get a time skip! Normally the final episodes have often a time skip but now we could see their struggle in and out of prison during the five years. It felt really refreshing and it supports the emotional connection between the audience and the characters. We see and feel their fears, their hopes, their despair and their longing. - All the red threads dissolved (see below) - Many kisses! I donāt only like it because I think itās hot but also because for me, you want to kiss and touch your partner in a relationship! So it feels natural that you kiss your partner and donāt hide shyly under the blanket like in many other BL series or hardly kiss at all. - Bison who beat the prisoner with the toilet dipper confirming that he himself is cute but wouldnāt sleep with anyone even more not with someone who isnāt handsome XD - I really liked the prisoner who āownsā the ātowel motelā for the āspecial needsā :D His gaze was so dreamy and I felt a little bit sorry for him. I want to give him a hug <3 - That we really could understand the fears and insecurity of Fadel and Bison during their time in prison. Fadel who was always very insecure and tends to push Style away because he thinks that he is not worth Styles love and that he only brings bad luck to the people he loves and on the other hand Bison who reflects his relationship with Kant and is willing to give him a free ticket for having fun with someone else when the lust overbears Kant because he knows that there are needs who want to be fulfilled. - Bisons little d*ck pic at the wall XD - I have a faible for Style with his sunglasses in the hair <3 - The warden who nearly caught FadelStyle kissing XD - The little heart burger flag with the origami flowers for Fadel in prison <3 this was so cute!
The unexpected plot twist: - I really didnāt expect a comeback of Lilly. In my last comment here for Ep 11 I was asking with which storyline they could come up for the last episode because everything seemed finished. I admit that this sequence with Lilly isnāt necessary but nevertheless I appreciate it because Lilly is still the top villain of the show and her arrest at the last episode felt rushed. So she gets another chance to āshineā in her cruel way. And I like it that they didnāt shoot her, so she basically killed herself by drinking the poison (see below).
The red thread again: - In ep 4 we had the talk between FadelStyle that you never show/give your 100% to anyone. Style assured Fadel that he already gives his 100% and in the final episode Fadel finally confirmed during their little ākiss ā ask ā kiss ā playā how much Fadel loves Style that Fadel loves him 100% too now. On top it was the first time, that he really TELLS Style that he loves him. (I donāt count the confession at the end of ep 6 because that was a āfakeā one at this time) - Also in ep 4 Kant gave the promise that he and Bison will travel to Iceland to see the northern lights while listening to Bisons playlist and in ep 12 they really travel there š - Ep 11: Styles dad was talking about gay marriage and Fadel promised that he will come back 5 years later and then talk with Styles dad again about this issue. Even if he hasnāt talked with him yet itās still mentioned during the last FadelStyle scene and itās not forgotten. - In ep 1 Fadel removed his Heart Burger Button from Styles Shirt (and his sensitive nipples :P). In ep 11 he gave it back to Style. In the final episode Style gave the button back to Fadel together with the whole burger joint. - In ep 7 Fadel had prepared a cake for Bisons birthday even if he was so mad at him because Bison backstabbed him by coming up with the idea to āhireā someone to get close to Fadel so that he could be with Kant. And also in prison Fadel prepared a little Muffin for Bisons birthday š - The deal from ep 1 that Style would get Kants car when Fadel is head over heels in love with him is finally finished and Style got the keys. - What started with a safe-word for their little kinky BDSM plays, became a safe word during Bisons emotional break down on the island, later a tattoo and is now the term of endearment for Bison #penguin - In ep 12 we get again Fadels character trait that he canāt stand it when someone is messing with his routine. First, it was in ep 4 when Style stalked him everywhere and then suddenly didnāt show up anymore so that he was so confused and stressed that he confessed that he misses Style. And now he was stressed again when Style didnāt come regularly to the prison anymore, but now he was sulking. - We get an explanation again about traditions and legends in other countries. In ep 11 Bison talked about the different legends concerning the milky way. Now we get the myths about the northern lights - Again Fadel was talking about the case that he thought he would die alone (ep 3 + 11) but now Style will always be at his side <3 - Lilly was killed by poison like the same way she used to kill during her time as hit(wo)man
With attention to detail: - Fadels dish at the āDinner with Momā was a burger :D
My personal highlight: - Actually I liked the whole episode even if itās not the storyline I would have expected and somehow it feels weird for a final episode but I think itās the perfect ending for the show! But if I have to choose I would say that I love the first kissing scenes of KantBison and FadelStyle in prison. I like how Kant has lifted Bison on the table and I looove~ how Style was putting his hand next to Fadels head at the wall while the other hand was grabbing his hair and they were kissing. In both scenes I could feel their longing for each other. It was acted so well by all of them!
Itās too bad thatā¦: - ā¦we didnāt get a conversation between FadelStyle and Styles dad and KantBison and Babe after theyāve been kidnapped by Lilly. I mean, theyāre threatened by guns, were nearly killed by poison and theyāve just learnt that their son/brother is dating a hitman and they seem so calm and donāt have any questions? Iām glad that at least Styles dad gave us a little feedback during FadelStyles conversation in the car that he is okay with Fadel by saying that Style need someone like Fadel at his side :D - ā¦we didnāt get any further scenes with KeenNont. After Keen was leaving in ep 11 by saying that Fadel and Bison could call him for help, it felt like he would have another appearance in the last episode. During the ādinner with Momā I was nearly expecting Keen jumping out of nowhere and killing Lilly ^^° or something like that XD
Little flaws I can overlook: - Did Fadel kill Lillys bodyguard by shooting him? So he just killed someone right after leaving prison? ^^° - And where did Bison get this injection for the other bodyguard? - And why did Fadel and Bison have guns at all when they arrived at the dinner? I thought they wanted to quit their job but even after years of prison they still have their guns ^^° - And why the hell didnāt KantBison wear a scarf during their Iceland-Trip? Itās really cold and in Thai BL series when they shoot a āsnowy sceneā they only wear a pullover or a coat but never a scarf XD - Fadel is allowed to cook in prison but the portions look little for so many prisoners ^^°
What felt unnecessary: - Babe wanting a tattoo of Kants name⦠I donāt knowā¦. Maybe I donāt get it because I donāt have tattoos but for me the whole scene and Babes wish felt unnecessary and was more a filler-scene. But perhaps I have this feeling because Iām not so emotionally involved in Kant and Babes relationship.
Hopes for Season 2 or Special Episode: - They didnāt show the actual death of Lilly so⦠perhaps⦠we will get another possibility of her adverse behaviour - Fadel was talking about his promise to Styles dad. So we have the chance to see a wedding! Iām so looking forward to Styles āCrop Top Wedding Dressā XDDD
All things considered Iām glad to have witnessed the rollercoaster of emotions with these two couples <3 I will really miss them and especially FadelStyle will keep a place in my heart <3
The worst crime of this series is not that itās nonsensical, but that itās boring. Campiness, if well done,…
I watched an interview with p Jojo where he said that the heart killers was originally quite dark. But GMMTV didn't like it. They wanted something funnier so he had to adjust the script and the dark thriller became a romcom.
in terms of romantic scenes, this series deserves full marks. like, in every episode, we get them all practically…
I like it that they put so many kissing scenes in the series because for me it feels more natural than being in a relationship an only kissing shyly underneath the blanket. When you are in love you want to kiss and touch your partner!
I get your point that the villain scenes seemed a little bit rushed and for me and my fan-hopes it's just an oppurtunity for a 2nd season that they didn't show her death šš¤
What ending did you expect? For me the ending was perfect und you get a satisfying closure of their wishes.
I generally agree with all the critiques I've seen on these comments already regarding the plot and pace of the…
I get your point, especially because I think that this was by far the most "realistic" adaptation of the Bdsm kink in a BL series I' ve watched so far.
Oh, I'm not ready to let go of the, krub! It's one of these series that get under your skin. š Fucking assholes,…
I feel you š We will all suffer together tomorrow š„ŗ even if there is a happy end it will be sad because we don't see FadelStyle and KantBison anymore š
EP11 is JoongDunk's favourite episode~Dunk:"My favorite EP, *WARNING* might have some tears for this one"Joong:"I…
Thank you so much for always sharing all the background tweets and Informations with us š„°
I remember one interview or live where JoongDunk said that they've shot a scene which was "out of their limits". Do you know which scene they refer to?
And did I get it right that they shot ep 11 on August 22?
But I agree, their communication is non-existant š
In my opinion, the Special Episode was okay. It was definitely not what I've expected but that is okay for me. I like being surprised. But for me the plot wasn't really well designed... there are so many plotholes and especially the beginning felt so rushed. They wanted too much for one episode.
