Vegas scares me too much lol I don't know how I will react when the Vegas/Pete subplot will start developing. I'm curious but at the same time afraid lol
I just scrolled down to find countless of comments saying mile and Apo shouldn't be shipped and I disagree --…
Indeed. The fact that people want to dictate what others should or should not think bother me a lot. I think it is as wrong and toxic as people not respecting boundaries when they ship two actors together. It's a kind of new censorship and moral policing.
Imagine this. Porsche leaving in ep 6 and Kinn getting killed. Porsche eventually getting his bar on the beach. Tankhun killing Vegas because Vegas has tortured too much his carps (Vegas cannot help it, he's very bad). No Vegas/Pete anymore. Kim being killed by a fanatical fan who wants Kim as a tutor too (but forever). No Kim/Porchay anymore. Porchay graduating in his university. Porsche and Kim being happy and living a normal life. Both of them meeting nice guys in a new romcom comedy. End of the KP series. 6 episodes. Fans all over the world being happy.
Last scene was really amazing (and really outshines the rest of the episode). I enjoy a lot the episode but the problem I have with the series is the contradiction : sometimes they are too "soft" and "nice" which make them being mafia men not believable and other times they act a little more like mafia lol Oh well this is fiction, I will take it as a nice romance sometimes with dark elements brought by the "mafia" environment. Don't expect the series to be like those dark and violent "gangster" movies.
This series in a way is (almost) as insane as Vegas : - smile, cute, warm, comedy then... BAM ! - dark, sinister, cruel, violent, then... BAM ! - sexy, passionate, hot, etc.
I think they call it hot and sexy because they don't see it as a rape and that Porsche was "active". But we know…
I find the scene well filmed too. But I despise Kinn for his selfishness since he isn't really bothered that his bodyguard was just kidnapped and almost sexually assaulted by Vegas, before having sex with Porsche right away, jumping on an opportunity caused by the drug. This is low-class mafia style lol. He has no consideration for Porsche situation and feelings, as expected. So I don't think Porsche will react well, logically.
kinda hesitating to watch this because of the rape scene because people are calling the scene "hot" and "sexy"
I think they call it hot and sexy because they don't see it as a rape and that Porsche was "active". But we know that Kinn is not really a gentleman even if he hesitates at the beginning. He's clearly taking advantage : he has something offered to him, he takes it. He won't wait Porsche starting to make his mind about his attraction. Kinn deserves a punch lol. Anyways, he's in the mafia...they are not known for being kind.
In answer to some of the points of "that" comment below.
* I think when you fetishize the other, you only see them as an object and not a human being. That's why it's a problem : the dehumanisation. But it is weird that some people are only linking this "process" to your sexual orientation...So I guess in their mind that people who happen to be gay cannot at all fetishize other gay people too ? or that because they are gay, they are free of criticism ? Gay abuser exist. And being gay does not make them less "abuser". Think about their gay victims too...
* But let's stop the bullshit (hypocrisy) with fetishization. Because it is also often (but not every time of course) the ugly word used for shaming women and their desires. And yes, women have as much desire as men. There is nothing wrong with having desire. Because every human being has desire, fantasies, etc. Denying this is similar to the same process of seeing people as objects. You're dehumanizing people just because they have desire.
* Mafia men = queer than people will see queer people as criminals...But the problem is the people making that generalization ? Not the series in itself. Because those people can also think that queers = bodyguards, wear suits, handsome, live in Thailand, drink pink milks. But they chose to see them in a negative light...Of course a generalization is still a preconceived idea : thinking that gay men are often artists is not reflecting a more complex reality for sure. However, it is still less harmful than thinking that all gay men are pedophiles. You cannot control people minds : they believe what they want to believe, what is easier to think and let their animalistic fear dominate their minds.
When I see people complaining about the content in the drama, I can only shake my head. This is a mafia drama.…
"I understand that the drug part triggers many, but I find it amazing that these people judge the drug part, but take the beating of the old man and the deadly shootout in the prelast episode for granted, because this is a mafia drama. I can't really understand that. "
I was thinking the same thing. We are so used to this in movies (killing, violence and fighting, even throwing punches...a punch can kill), that people forget how this is also not a common act...This kind of violence is not at all trivial too.
The actor playing Vegas also surprises me. Very good acting ! He's terrifying, dangerous, insane but at the same time charismatic ! He clearly brings the tension in the series.
- smile, cute, warm, comedy then...
BAM !

BAM !
