Episode 1: For a Thai show, this is surprisingly not terrible. I find Yok intriguingly attractive, even though he's not classically handsome. And I haven't spotted any plastic surgery so far, so that's refreshing. And if I have seen plastic surgery but didn't notice it, congratulations to the patient and his surgeon/doctor. Thai directors have gotten much better at making 15 extras look/feel like a jam-packed nightclub. 😂
Oh good!I was looking for a reason to give this one a try. 😅Perhaps you have issues with dramas featuring consent…
Should I google "188 gong series?" I don't know what that is.
I'm about 3/4 of the way through ep. 1 right now. Considering it's a Thai show, it's not terrible. 😉
But whoa...I just noticed this show has TWENTY episodes. It takes a lot to get to watch a series that long. Usually, there are tons of filler in such shows.
Question for all the "where's the intricate plot I was expecting" people below:
What led you to expect an intricate plot here?
I see plenty of plot for a very short series: Mr. Kang is a cock-teasing perv who knows what he likes and enjoys toying with people. Mr. Lee is a naive but horny young dude. Mr. Kang enjoys pushing Mr. Lee to pass boundaries, and then sternly reprimanding him for doing just that; not only sexual boundaries, but emotional/psychological boundaries, too. Me. Lee has quickly developed romantic feels for Mr. Kang; feels which Mr. Kang has deliberately brought about. But...does Mr. Kang also have feels for Mr. Lee (I think so)? There is an obvious dom/sub/discipline mind-fuck, psychological vibe going on here, and that's just in the two episodes I've watched. That's a lot more plot directly related to a romance than we get in any two episodes of a 12-episode, one-hour Thai Yakuza BL.
I suspect the usual MDL suspects are whining about "no plot" so they can look down on a show they hate themselves for enjoying. 🤣
Genuinely how ppl rated this bl so high... 0 plot horrible makeup bad acting. The only good things about in this…

Basically this is a series made for guilty pleasure, people who loves some deep, dramatic plots better skip this…
Well-put. It's honestly amusing to read these "where is the intricate plot I was looking for?" comments, when most BLs that have heavy plots are 100% ridiculous. I'm looking at you, Thailand.
From first ep, this show gave no indication it is anything other than what it is. Can you fault a show for not being something it didn't attempt to be? Not to me, you can't.
“I’m leaving my stomach empty for a reason” I'm going to use this line next time I have the chance. Though I'm not sure why you need to leave your tummy vacant for two or three TBSPs of spooge.
This series is such a fever dream. Someone really wanted to make a horny BL, lol
This. 😉And it's not as though there has been anything even close to explicit on screen. People's private bits have been covered and all that, so as not to scandalize the prudes...so, what's the problem? Guess I'll keeping reading down in comments and find out.
Let’s be honest here. People aren’t dumb. People know there is plot. The commentary is the lack of substantive…
Interesting...why are people expecting something here that the show, from early in episode 1, made obvious it was not going to be? There's a fun, little plot, some good comedic acting, some bad makeup, and a low budget. Are people expecting The Untamed?
Episode 2: Holy shit. This is hot, sexy, and...funny, too. I love it.
Both leads are doing a great job. The only problem I see is the "casket ready" (thank you, Mila8o0 😅) makeup and the over-the-top AI-generated opening credits sequence.
They were my gateway into BL.
Since 2020., however, I have enjoyed a bare handful, so for me, "not bad for a Thai show" is exactly how I feel.

Perhaps you have issues with dramas featuring consent issues and thus should stop watching.

How much more do people expect in two episodes?

But really, who could be honestly shocked that Mr. Kang is a big ol' ho?
It's making me lol and also making me horny. 😅
Holy shit.
This is hot, sexy, and...funny, too.

This is a hoot! 😅😮
This is indeed twisted...and toxic...and I love it. 😉🫣
