Ok, things are starting to get really interesting. If what I think is happening with An is actually happening that would be one hell of a twist. I'm also happy to see that Third is recognizing that he doesn't need to put up with mistreatment, and I applaud the fact that while he has feelings for Khai it's obvious he's not blindly in love with him, he completely see's his faults he just can't help his feelings. I feel like most people have experienced a love or infatuation where you feel like an idiot for continuing to go back, until you finally reach the point where you just can't take it anymore. It's painful to watch, but I can relate having been there at some point in my life before I realized I was worth way more than what I was putting up with. In the end if Khai and Third end up together Khai is going to need some serious character development and groveling before I think he's worthy of Third. I applaud the acting, it's been gut-wrenching every time. This episode was really good, that scene in the cafe where Two and Bone stood up for Third was the best, at the very least he has two good, supportive friends who love him and just want him to be ok. Also can I just say Third getting bitchy is everything, you tell that mofo where he can stuff it Third.

I enjoyed the first episode so we're off to a good start! Still quietly anticipating more MingKit lol but I'm starting to fall in with the other characters too. There was a point where I started feeling like it was dragging a bit, but I think that's just how it's written because I remember feeling that way reading the novel and watching the first season with PhaYo's storyline. There's something about it that just doesn't sweep me away, but I think the series is going to be a good one. There was some stiff acting here and there, but since everyone is pretty much rookie actors (from what I've heard) I wasn't expecting all that much. One thing I do wish they'd stop is the overreaction by anyone in the room, any time Phana walks by lol it's too cringe and pretty distracting. While Ben is handsome in his own right (his looks are growing on me), he's nowhere near the level to inspire that sort of reaction. Sorry if this is coming across too critical, I'm wanting to come into it with a discerning eye since this is the second attempt at this, imo it should be held to a high standard.

I mean...just don't watch it

The only two who don't seem to really fit for me right now, are the person that plays Phana and the one that plays Beam. They really don't make any sense to me based on the novel, and I'm slightly concerned by the fact that when Nong Noon and the directors kept talking about casting they kept describing the way the actors "looked" not that they blew them away with their acting skills which was - I thought - the whole reason they re-casted. If they were just going to put everyone through acting sessions, they could have just done that with the previous cast and only replaced Godt. I'll reserve my judgement until I've watched the series, but I don't know how this is going to go. I think I'll be pretty annoyed if the acting is subpar after all this mess. I can already tell that MingKit is still going to be my favorite couple by far hah.

This is a very good example of the reality that you can't help who you love. Unfortunately in the real world, love is all too often not a fairy tale. I've had friends be in relationships that I didn't understand at all, but they still for some reason loved their partner. Sometimes the reasons you love a person don't make any sense to other people, it would be nice if every person had the perfect love story or the perfect partner but that's just not realistic. I'm not saying that Khai's behavior is excusable, or that I feel like Third should put up with it, absolutely not. I'm just saying love can be this complicated and frustrating in reality and perhaps the writer was trying to depict that.

I'm really sad this is ending, I enjoyed the whole series so much! One of the best to be released this year. I can't wait to see what's next from the HIStory world.

I'm excited. Based on the teaser the production value might not be stellar but I think it will still be good. Mew is so adorable in the teaser already lol

Thank you for the work you put into this!

Fellow ARMY! YoonJin are my two ults lol it's hard to only have one bias. Well from my pov no plot is perfect, so I'm ok with that. I'm so glad this wasn't all fluff (even if I do enjoy a good fluff now and then haha), or all silly comedy I felt like the comedic elements were smart and well-placed, it was a good break from all heavy drama. They put serious effort into making this a story with depth, not only with the characters but with the evolving mystery as well. There are some plot holes for sure, but I definitely applaud them for the effort of continuing to improve and develop a different type of BL. I appreciate so much that they steered clear from the usual dramatic plots that interfere with the actual relationship of the characters. They tend to be more realistic about how their characters come together and fall in love, and I appreciate that a lot. I'm also personally not bothered when secondary characters don't get developed fully, as going into a series my main focus is always on the main characters as I know that's the story they're wanting to tell. So I get the complaints, but unless the MC sucks, I don't invest too much in the secondary characters, they're only truly there for plot-fill 99% of the time. So not perfect, but leaps and bounds above any BL we've had come out since probably Boundary Crossing and LBC haha.

Wow, the last two episodes were amazing. The storyline is so riveting and compelling, the emotional quality from the actors is outstanding. I can't wait to see what's next for History, because Trapped definitely took things to a new level. I'm sad it's ending next week, but I'm excited for a conclusion.

Great first episode. They already have me intrigued. Plus the actors are doing so well. Gun as always is excellent, but I know Off is doing a good job or I wouldn't want to kick his ass so damn bad lol luckily from what I've seen in the teaser the time will come when Khai pays for all the hurt he's causing now. I really hope I don't get second lead syndrome though, usually when the lead is a jerk I like the second lead for the love interest.

I was thinking the same thing! Though I also thought what if it's revealed that Sir Tang was really his dad. Another potential storyline is that Li Chen and Sir Tang were together then separated due to her being police and him a member of a gang. She found out she was pregnant and put her baby up for adoption. Then years later they reunite and get back together because Sir Tang is trying to move away from the illegal parts of gang life and he regrets loosing her (he always tells Tang Yi to not throw away his life and the idea of falling in love, that that's more important than anything). If she gave Tang Yi up when he was a baby it could be that none of them knew he was actually their son.

That's unfortunate.

Not a sequel

Wow. I'm so proud of the History staff and production team. They really utilized their resources and have done an amazing job on this series/season so far. I've always loved History but they've steadily grown and gotten better with each new season. Everything about Trapped so far is A+. I haven't anticipated the next episode in a series this much in quite awhile.

I just can't get into this. Maybe I would if I were into the leads, but they make the series really hard to watch. While there's some pretty good writing interspersed, and some great comedic timing, for the most part it's a slow slog with not much to keep my attention. I wish if they were going to do parody, they'd go full parody. Or if they were going to have a plot, they'd have an actual plot. Instead there's this strange half-assed attempt at both. My two favorite characters are Migel and fake Tiger which should tell you how I'm feeling about the series as a whole considering we've barely seen either lol

I don't know. I'm so hesitant about watching BL series that come out of China. They usually leave me gutted.

What I'm most excited about and hope they to focus on, is developing August's storyline. While I love NewYear as an actor, and his character was fine, I was most intrigued by Mark/August. I think his character had a huge amount of potential and depth. And it was something new for sure, they don't usually portray characters who cross-dress all that often, and they were showing it in a positive light which is an extra plus. I really want August to get a good resolution, I feel like he deserves it after last season.

I also hope they keep the original cast, I would be pretty bummed if Mark doesn't come back playing August as I truly enjoyed his acting (as usual).

I wrote this before I watched the last episode. According to subbers who speak thai, they've been saying they are actually brothers. I wanted to wait until I had confirmation they were brothers, before passing my judgement on their roles in the series.

Pretty sure they were brothers. Some subbers who speak thai have been confirming it (and rightfully freaking out) on social media platforms.
