BEST Thai BL show EVER!!!!!!! Stop what you are doing and go WATCH IT!
Let me tell you, I loveeee this show!!!!!! This show gave me Squid game, Alice in Borderland vibes, and I ADORE it! It is very different from the generic college students drama love stories that thai bl shows tend to overuse. I have watched over dozens of Thai bl dramas, but this show is literally at the top of my list. There are so many Thai bl dramas that I thought I loved before, but after watching this show, none of them can compare. Now that I have finished the show Jack and Jocker, I am in a slump. Literally, every other show now seems boring to me cause Jack and Jocker has elevated my standard so highly.
Mind you, that was my first introduction to Yin and War. Their acting is so good. War's facial expression is sooo good. when he is happy, I'm happy; when he is sad, I'm sad; when he is hurt, I am hurt. His acting feels so natural that I keep forgetting he is an actor. I've watched actors from countless different dramas, but his acting is literally all the way at the top. This guy was made for acting. I loved the characters in this show. This show was all about redemption. Even the evil boss at the end was given a shot at redemption, because he felt remorseful, and shameful, and was given a life outside of jail with the opportunity to start anew.
Jack and Joke's relationship reminds me of this tiktok song "I'll let the world burn, I'll let the world burn for you" by Chris Grey, cause joke could have done ANYTHING and EVERYTHING for jack. He loves hardddd and selflessly. He put jack first and this is shown even during their sex scene, Joke wants to be on top to be the one to pleasure Jack. Jack had to turn over him on the bed a few times and had to indirectly ask him to stop and let him be the one to be in charge for him to let Jack pleasure him first😂. Joke is such a devoted, caring, and loving partner, I want my man to be like him tbh😂. It's sad that his dad thought he was a bad kid, when in reality he has so much heart. The way he cared for Jack's grandma was so wholesome. He was at her bedside every day, more than Jack, her own grandkid, ever was. He swallowed his pride to ask help to his estranged dad for her. This man is such a husband material. I heard a special episode of the show is dropping sometime this year, I can't wait.
I've watched slow burn before but this show is the only show where I was dyingggg for them to hold each other and kiss each other. The tension was electrifying. I have a very short span attention and most of the time in thai dramas I tend to skip some parts in the episodes, especially when it comes to side characters I don't care about. However, this is one of the RARE shows that was able to keep me sat and hooked. I watched EVERY episode without skipping and felt even sad that an episode had to end. Now that the show is over I don't know what to do with my life anymore.
This is the first time I ever gave a show a 10 out of 10. Just to show you how great this show is.
