KinnPorsche (2022)

TOTALLY WORTH IT!

I'd like to point that this serie is not for everybody. If you like action or thriller, you'll love it as I did. However, I warned you that it displays sensitive topics that are not suitable for under age people. Also, I think that the story could've been better because this created world is really interesting. I am not saying is not good, it is just that it feel a little rushed at times. The best remarkable aspect is the cast and their acting. Wow they are amazing actors! I am so impressed by their acting! And also, it was by far the best production and quality of filming I've watched in BLs!

complete waste of time

TLDR; not worth watching if u came to watch it after hearing about its mature content, just look up the content itself and skip watching the series to save your time.

Having recently gotten into the world of BLs, i didn't have a very high standard since i was just getting a gauge of the acting and whatnots. This series lowered the bar by at least tenfold. There were good scenes that kept me watching in the first 1 or 2 episodes but after that it went down so fast. I did finish the series but i skipped through a lot of plots simply because it was so unnecessary.
Those Wattpad mafia stories u read written by those twelve-year-old kids is written better than this sorry excuse of a script. I also have no problem with the mature content but this drama was inputting the mature content because sex sells and not because it provided some context or to show intimacy between the actors. It was just very off putting in general. If u r looking only to view the mature content u can easily search it up on youtube and just watch that part and save a LOT of your time.

Not a lot to say for the story it was very cliche but also poorly written so while i could tell what was going to happen next the scenes itself did not have an element of wow in them that would have made the series a treat to watch actually. Actors were good, relatively hot and good-looking cast who are able to showcase various expressions but emotions were not grasped wth the conviction that could have been reached in this story for me personally.

Started off great!

The show started off on a great account. At the time I had huge expectations from the production team and the story. It was very interesting and exciting till a certain point. After a little more than half, the story started taking strange turns and by the time it reached the last few episodes, it became something totally different from what it started off as. It felt like the writer seemed to have lost his way in between. I was not a fan of the ending, it just became too confusing. And Nampheung's story was pitiful. It felt cruel, almost heartless.

The casting though, was great. Each and every actor justified their role to the fullest. Nattawin (Porsche) displayed his acting prowess too well. His character (Porsche) is one of a kind. It felt true, heartfelt, rational and strong. Another actor worthy of praise is Wichapas Summettikul (Vegas). He too portrayed so many shades with such ease that he made acting look like a piece of cake.

My favorite couple would be Vegas and Pete. My heart went out to them in the end.

All in all, I would say it was a good show. It isn't a very easy watch because of some mature themes in it but if you want to truly feel something deep then it's a good choice.

Not a 10/10 serie but definitely a memorable one that the BL industry won’t be able to forget.

Boy..what a ride. I’m feeling so empty because I loved watching this bl and I really like the actors as well. After ITSAY I thought I wouldn’t see a BL so well made but KinnPorsche really did that. The acting, the OST, direction, photography, everything was SO WELL DONE. It was the same level as ITSAY for me, although it’s not perfect. So well, be prepared. This review will be a loooong one.

First, What I didn’t like:

KimChay didn’t existed in the novel and although I liked them here, I think they weren’t that necessary, especially because we have much more complex and intense couples to develop. They were pretty cute. Also Kim is SO HOT. But I think some of their scenes could have been released later, with a spin off video.

Also, what made KinnPorsche a 9/10 serie instead of a 10/10 for me is that they wanted to adapt a long story, with too much characters and complex couples with only 14 episodes. They also wasted their time with some unnecessary scenes and when we needed a more time for the important parts, they rushed a little. A lot of people complained about too much scenes of KinnPorsche but they are the main couple and main characters, they need to be well developed. Instead of them, we had much more unnecessary scenes as the whole ghost thing with Tawan, like please. Kim’s scenes investigating was for what? Also Porschay is cute but he had more scenes in the end that he should. VegasPete were the most damaged with all of this as their story were complety rushed.

As VegasPete were rushed, their story looked even more problematic. Pete was a difficult character to understand, his choice was difficult to understand and it’s hard to believe that he fell in love with Vegas with so less scenes of them. Vegas changed too fast as well. He was beating Pete in one episode and in the same episode worrying for him. Vegas said he saw in Pete’s eyes that Pete liked when Vegas lose control like i’m sorry…when he saw that? I couldn’t see this lol Like everything about them happened too fast and it shouldn’t because they are really complex.

What I liked:

They really made a good adaptation for Kinn and Porsche. They made Kinn a more likeable character, they removed most of the SA scenes and instead we had much more cute and likeable scenes of them. I wish they made Tawan plot different because this part really made Kinn look stupid as a character, but well, I won’t complain too much because at least I liked him waaaay better here than in the novel. Actually, Kinn was a very attractive character for me here. He loved Porsche but also gave a choice for Porsche to follow his own path. Kinn in the novel wouldn’t do that and that’s why I loved him here. Porsche as well is more likeable here because in the novel he was really annoying and also very homophobic. Also, Kinn and Porsche scenes were so well done that it was insane, looked so real most of the times. They were like a hot and cute couple and ApoMile killed with their chemistry and good acting. I didn’t like Kinnporsche in the novel but loved them in the serie.

VegasPete scenes were too heavy for me in the novel so i’m glad they removed the multiple rape scenes, this made the couple look more likeable for me, although still problematic. Also, BibleBuild had a awesome chemistry as well and omg Bible KILLED this character, he was made for Vegas. It’s hard to believe that it was his first job as actor.

I think all characters in KinnPorsche are really charismatic, this is one of the most positive things in the BL for me. I LOVED THANKUN!! Every one said he was crazy but he was the most intelligent of them all. Arm, Tay and the others were good as well, unfortunately we had less scenes of them. But my favorite ones were definitly Vegas and Kinnporsche tho. Vegas is really hard to not like. He was evil, smart, manipulative, charming. A true mafia. His story is also likeable, although a little cliche. I think it’s obvious to say that he is the best character in KinnPorsche. But I also liked Kinn and Porsche. They were pretty attractive for me, even with their dumb scenes.

Also the ACTING. Almost all actors here did a pretty decent job, especially Bible, Apo and Mile, they were phenomenal. The CHEMISTRY is also a good point. ApoMile were insane and BibleBuild were also really good.

As I said before, it’s also a pretty well done serie with beautiful scenes. The cinematography was on point and they made use of colors to give meaning to the characters and their scenes. They also made use of a lot of symbologies, they knew what they were doing here.

The plot is also interesting, although the mafia part it can be not that used. The story about Porsche’s family changed here in the serie and althought it may look forced, this for me it was clearly a tip that we may see a S2. Also, I think everybody could see that Kinn’s father it’s not that good as he want to appear and I think S2 will be about that. He’s a very smart and manipulative guy. But probably Porsche will find out the true and Kinn and Porsche will fight about that. Could Kinn trust Porsche, betray his father and be at Porsche’s side? We will see.

In the end, even not being a 10/10 serie, KinnPorsche is definitely a memorable one that neither I nor the BL industry will be able to forget. If you didn’t watch, I really recommend. It’s not perfect, but definitly enjoyable. Almost perfect.

PS: I will miss the cast :( let’s hope for S2.

Ok, I'm here because of TikTok

The plot is nice, not to complex but still keeps you interested. However, some of the plot twist felt a bit forced and not built into the plot (Could never really guess them on your own until they wanted you to). But I can't lie... I gasped more then once. The dynamic between the characters is great, loved the friendships and almost all the couples (Can't love them all). The cinematography is surprisingly nice, felt a bit out of place at times but still looked wonderful. One of the things that annoy me the most is the lack of music. You can't use the same song slowed down or speed up....It's still the same song!!!!!!!!!!
In conclusion, I received what I came for but not much more.
P.S Pete & Vegas deserve better!!!!!!!!!!!

MILEAPO AND BIBLEBUILD DELIVERED

One of the most anticipated BL series and it did not disappoint me at all. The acting from the cast members was exquisite. You can tell they breathed life into their roles. One of the best cinematographies I have seen in Thai BLs. Definitely a romance story with a mafia theme and not the other way around.





I thoroughly enjoyed KinnPorsches story line especially episode 6 and 8. Mile and Apo delivered stellar acting. "Real acting with real feelings" There were some issues that definitely needed to be addressed which weren't at the end. So hopefully side stories or a season 2 will cover all the bases
VegasPete arc was a bit lackluster for me at the beginning but definitely enjoyed watching them as they progressed. Bible and Build did not disappoint me towards the end. KimChay definitely grew on me. Lastly we were robbed of TayTimeTem.

A great series. Definitely rewatching multiple times.

Amazing and refreshing

If you are looking for a love story with mafia theme i think this is best. All scenes are worth to watch. Undeniable chemistry of both leads is cherry on the cake and you can feel it. I want to thank mile phakphum and apo nnattawin for portraying kinn and Porsche. The cinematography is amazing you will feel like you are watching Hollywood series. And music is amazing. I want to recommend it to everyone. Because love is love
💕💕💕💕
Kinn- head of main family . Who wanted to lead a simple life but he had to become a leader and he falls for Porsche
Porsche- a university studentand a bartender who loves his brother so much. He had to become bodyguard of kinn

Worth the watch, flaws and all. Not perfect but very enjoyable.

I thought the story plot was mediocre with great potential. I don't dislike sex scenes but I also agree with other reviewers who say that it gets a bit too sex oriented throughout the story. I also read a few reviews complaining about the glorification of abuse, manipulation, betrayal, and toxic relationships. In response, yes, this show has a lot of these themes but I personally don't think it was glorifying them. In the end, each of the main characters seems to grow and become healthy, same with the relationships. I do have to say, I was a little disgusted at the end. The plot twists were unresolved and I thought that they did a bit too much. If they had extended the series, I think they could have made it work very well. However, they did not build up to it in a consistent and gradual manner and the series was too short to allow for the plot to progress proportionally. I think the concept is great and I think the heavy dynamics in the story between the couples is also great. Yes, the relationships all have toxicity but, they all grow to be better and...what do you expect from a drama? It was well written despite being crammed into such a short series.

I loved the actors and acting. They all seem really determined to act well and dedicated to the series. I thought they all did very good jobs at playing their parts and portraying complex emotions of the characters. This in some way makes up, a bit, for the quick and erratically paced plot. There is also great chemistry between all of the actors. Even non-couple character dynamics are very good. Well written and well played. I am grateful for their hard work, the crew, the castors, and the writers.

Overall, I might rewatch this series a few times within the next few years however I will not be binge watching it over and over within short periods of time. This could be because of it or me, I am not sure. Perhaps it is both. I thought the music was very good. I nice bonus to watching the series. I love to listen to the OST outside of the series and sing along with some too. I love the theme song, Free Fall by the Slot Machine, and I love the other bits like those of Jeff Satur. I am now a separate fan of both musicians. The bonus material is really great as well and I recommend watching the actors' reactions to episodes and so on.

Brilliantly Directed, And Amazing Performances... But Full Of Inconsistent Storytelling

I personally think that the hype around this show is well deserved. Admittedly, at first I was more than a bit skeptical about how the show handled the non-consensual elements (because they were very triggering for me in the novel), but while they didn't completely make it a healthy encounter from the get-go, it was nice watching Kinn get some development and have the courage to accept that he made mistakes, and tried to make up for them.
While most people might find Vegas as their favorite, my own personal pick would be Porsche. I mean- I don't even know where to start; in the novel he came off quite jaded, and somewhat irritating (not in the good way), however, I'm glad that they made his character much more entertaining in the show, and despite what others say, he has been the one who had the most character development, which is to say, negative in contrast to Kinn, who had the positive arc. We saw Kinn go from an arrogant mafia boss with trust issues, to a lover who'd quite literally do anything for Porsche, while trying to solve those trust issues as well. Porsche on the other hand started out somewhat street-smart, but still an adorable ball of sunshine who gave too much second hand embarrassment. The highlight of his character is the love and adoration he has for his little brother, I mean- dude just joined the MAFIA for him, what more could one want? That aside, we saw his development from episode 4, and how broken he was after it, He is a simple and forgiving person, and it is proved again and again, first with Kinn, Vegas, and then Korn., that is his one trait that remains consistent. As much as I love him, some of his decisions were very questioning as seen in the later episodes, I don't know whether they were due to bad characterization in general, or the fact that the writers intended to show how the mafia rubbed off on him By the end of the show, he'd also become hardened, cunning, and extremely selfish. One of his decisions stood out to me was one connected with Pete. It marked one of the first times he'd completely disregarded his value for relationships, and it wouldn't be wrong to say that now he honestly doesn't care about anyone other than Kinn and Chay, he'd probably kill for them or worse. He does what he wants, for his own purpose, and that's what he's become. Apo Nnattawin played the crap out of him in my opinion, and the chemistry he shares with his onscreen partner Mile is unmatched. The best part of his performance for me were in episode 4 , episode 6 and episode 7. He owned his character and no one else could've played him better.
Also, I understand the hype around VegasPete, and while I do like them to some extent, I mostly find myself indifferent to them, they don't excite me as much as the main couple does, but the actors, especially Bible, hold their own quite well. I won't comment more on Build, but his chemistry with his onscreen partner was brilliant, and his acting packed a gut punch (even for an indifferent person like me). I think that maybe I didn't click with them much was due to the non consensual (disturbing) sequence being glossed over, like- I keep wondering how the hell do you want to make out with someone who electrocuted your balls the day before. I like the Pete-heals-Vegas approach, but it doesn't do much for me, I guess.
I think the story could've been written a bit better, especially the way that some characters behaved, it was odd to see KinnPorsche being all cuddly while Big's sacrifice got ignored and shoved under a rug. Then we got a tiny piece of KimChay, with hardly any personality to Kim, like why did he ever ghost Chay like that, and why did he act as if he wanted Chay back so randomly in the end? Also, what was the whole point of Kim snooping around for Porsche's backstory if he never revealed it? If it is to be shown in the next season, then they should've dropped some hints, because all I can say is that it looks a lot like the writers just needed an excuse for Kim to meet Chay as a plot device. Also, Porsche just selling Pete off to Vegas like that disturbed and disappointed me, it felt really out of character to me in the beginning, but I understood that the writers were just intending to show the negative development of Porsche coming from his life spent in the mafia. Still, it was odd, considering Pete went to Vegas just for him, and that's how he repays it. And speaking of Pete, I'm so mad- HOW COME HE DISAPPEARED AND NO ONE BOTHERED TO ASK ABOUT HIM??? Like what sort of boss is Kinn, if he's not even going to ASK about Pete. Porsche, I can forgive, but his best friend went missing, is he not even gonna wonder where he is? It's just out of the place writing there, because in those two episodes, it felt like KinnPorsche were just in their own world, and they didn't give two hoots about what was going around them. And.... The ending...
I'm sorry, but Porsche as the head of the minor family is just killing me. It's so really laughable, but at the same time its a very clever ruse for Korn's benefit.
Also... Vegas did a complete 360 degree in his personality in the post credits, and I can't say I don't feel anything, that was honestly cute.
Almost cute enough to distract me away from- BRINGING PORSCHE's 'MOM' BACK FROM THE DEAD???
*SIgh* feels like a melodramatic soap opera at this point. I don't want to expect a second season because I feel like this 'mom' will drive a wedge between our main couple, which calls for a lot of unnecessary angst. Which is sad, because I really wanted them all lovey-dovey and BAMF together in season 2.
Looks like I'm gonna be disappointed.
Moving on, the entire cast was splendid, Apo and Bible's acting stood out to me the most. Mile was also good, especially in episode 7, where- *Ahem* Never mind. Build also got me shedding a few tears when Pete resigned from being the main family's bodyguard. In short, everyone was well casted. Jeff stole the spotlight for me in the fight sequence in episode 14, Barcode was adorable, but his role wasn't that demanding, though I still wanted to squish him in a hug whenever he cried.
The product placements annoyed the crap out of me , ESPECIALLY the bread. I hate bread now, never having it again. It made me cringe so hard. The only good product placement was the Maserati, probably 'cause Mile was sponsoring it.
Music was nice, I like all the OSTs, especially the opening sequence, Jeff really outdid himself with 'Why Don't You Stay' which I cry over every time I write a fan fiction. Barcode's OST was adorable, just like him and it made me smile.
The direction and camera work was something you don't see everyday in a Thai bl (no offense). It was brilliant and creative, especially using the lighting to portray the mood of the scene, like the green being used for jealousy in episode 7, and the pink and blue representing love and peace in VegasPete scenes together.
Regarding the deviation from the novel, I'd like to say that in most parts the series was definitely better, as seen with how Kinn's development was handled, and how his non-con treatment of Porsche wasn't glossed over (which the novel most definitely did) However, I can't really say the same for VegasPete, but at least the rape scene was removed. I definitely prefer series KinnPorsche rather than Novel, because Novel Kinn was just too annoying and toxic, while Novel Porsche came off whiny and sort of mentally disturbed. However, Novel definitely set up a bigger picture with regards to Korn's plan in the end, while series...
I hope I will be wrong when season 2 comes out, but it seems unlikely. For now, I definitely liked season 1, and I'd recommend it to watch.

The end was not it

I have really mixed feelings about this series so I'll go by positive then negative points (it will be long I'm sorry):

+
The beginning was really good. I remember being so excited during the first episodes and waiting impatiently for the next week.
The story is not just about love, far from it as the plot has a lot of mysteries. It is a really interesting mafia story which has not being done before I think (except by HIStory 3: trapped which I love, but not at this extent)
Therefore I feel it really paves the way for future more serious and dark series not only happening in school
All the couple's had a really cool dynamic and chemistry and I craved for every moments of the side couples
The soundtrack is really good. I usually don't notice it that much but the musics were totally on point and adding something to the scenes.
Tankhun. I loved him, he is not just the basic dorky character which I expected the first time he was introduced, he is the most empathetic, funny and intelligent (in the sens where he catches things quickly) character of the show and the actor gave a wonderful performance. That's why he deserves a good point by himself.
Talking about that, the acting was really on point, at the beginning I found that even though it was funny, Apo did a bit too much with his expressions but his progresses are really visible throughout the series. All actors were really good which highlighted some scenes to the point we're they were memorable because of it.
I liked the message of the end, Kinn's dad is an awesome villain ("the story is written by the victor" quote was incredible) and I liked how the characters weren't presented as black and white but full of nuances and secrets.
The scenning: the light and execution of some scenes were just beautiful, the best exemples are the sex scenes where we could almost feel fingers touch skins, the tension and beauty in it were great.

-
KinnPorshe hah too much screen time. Once they got together the side couples should have appeared more to keep it as interesting. It was good when we followed the development of their relationship because we wanted to see what happens, the tension, the hiding, the teasing..., but once they got together, it wasn't the same anymore. Don't misunderstand me, they were still cute and I loved to see their happy lovey-dovey and every day life moments but it ended up boring me because I was interested in the other couples more than them but they still got 80% of the screen time until the very end. That's too much.
Which leads to my second point, the side couples. VegasPete was luckier than KimPorshay who literally disappeared at one point without completing their storyline but it still felt rushed. They lacked time, both couples did. KimPorshay was my favourite couple but they barely where there and didn't have a proper ending (it wasn't even rushed, it wasn't there). It would have been great if KinnPorshe had slowly got less screen time (with still cute scenes and mafia business to make the story advance of course) to give more time to the other couples. Overall it felt really unbalanced and I waited for the next week always hoping the same: please let it have more KimPorshay (and VegasPete)
If at least the time accorded to the plot (and main couple) was well used then I would be less disappointed but all of it for that much unanswered questions and inconsistencies feel so spoiled. The 14th episode was a huge disappointment, in the extent that it made me mad. I forced myself to not fast advance some parts.
And please don't say it's for the second season to prepare, I know that some questions had to be left unanswered. It still doesn't excuse how poorly the story developed at the end.
First, there was too many twists. I think that at one point they made twists just to try to fit the image of a psychological serious series but forgot the sense. It felt like they tried to be an American blockbuster (for real at one moment a guy is shot, tries to get up, is shot against, that repeated 3 times, then he is not dead and lights up a cigarette?? Like why? Sorry I laughed). It was really good until it became a joke.
Even a season 2 can't explain that, you can create suspense, unresolved things etc, but it's just messy. This last episode felt really rushed.
Not 14th episode inherent bad points now: The characters are sometimes really dumb. For example when Pete got kidnapped, it only took a message of him saying he will take vacations for them not to suspect a thing....the best bodyguard sent to the enemy and dedicated to his job would not do that. Also when Kinn learned his father may not be the angel he is he still follows his orders blindly, even when it implies lying or getting in the way of Porsche. You could say is because he is loyal and loves his dad, I say it's too much. He never questions him, to the point I wondered if he had free will or was just a good dog to his dad (I'm sorry it sounds harsh). But the most raging and incoherent thing is how Porsche still trusts and falls for Kinn's dad manipulative schemes even though he lied to him SO MANY TIMES. I'm sorry but in the 14th episode it got to the point where it was ridiculous. We got 6 different versions of the death of his parents...4 of them are in this last episode, in a laps of 15 minutes at most! All of it to accept the final truth told by Kinn's dad and take the responsibility of becoming the head of the minor family 2 minutes after his mother collapsed in his arms and he told Kinn's dad not to touch her? Come on. It makes the "I'm not on anyone's side" empty. I loved the resolution of Kinn's dad being manipulative until the end but the poor execution spoiled it in part.
Finally, Porsche was one of my favourite at first for being so funny and caring of everyone but he became really unlovable over the episodes; He doesn't care about Pete: was never worried of him when he stopped hearing about him, even when he learned by Tankhun he probably was tortured and maybe dead he was depicted as founding that Thankhun was being over dramatic. That coupled to the fact that when Pete comes back, covered in blood, with hit marks and not wanting to tell, seeming afraid, he still has no problem to pretty much sell him to Vegas in exchange of information for his own interest. It could have put him in danger (Porsche had no clues telling him Pete loved Vegas as his refusal to give his name could have been by fear of reprisal or trauma). They were supposed to have become best friends so it really doesn't sit right with me. But more generally after getting together in Kinn he seems to loose interest in everyone else. Unlike the beginning where Porsche and Porschay seemed really close, they progressively grow totally appart. He doesn't know what his brother is doing and probably don't even know where he is most of the time...


I know that after all I said you could think I didn't like it but despite all that I really think the series is worth it.

One of the greatest experiences I've ever had with a series!

KinnPorsche is a series you either love or hate, I loved it.

✨️Story

Storywise, KP seems quite simple, a mafia boss falls in love with his bodyguard and you get to know the lives of the mafia family. However, what looks like a boring story then comes to life with the characters that range from excentric to borderline in a family that is anything but ordinary. The raw emotions in their relationships is something I’ve never seen before in BLs. I have to commend the team for such bold choices.

The family ties and their conflicts serve as the background for the story. There is family drama soap-opera style, iconic fashion sense with Vegas wardrobe/Tankhun wardrobe, comedy, kisses that feel real and sex scenes that are not fan service or unnecessary. And of course, sometimes you remember this is a mafia story, especially in the moments they show torture, headshots or fighting scenes. When the main CPs interact their relationships are both controversial and addictive and you get so immersed, and they pull at so many heartstrings that you have to remind yourself this is mafia and that you should open your mind. Deceit and hunger for power are also shown, but if you analyze things, what you really get is mafia men damaged for different reasons - mafia work, ex-boyfriend, tragedy, fathers - struggling to find answers and love in the most soppy way. The pain is so real and the reasons are so humane that you can’t help but empathize with them, root for them, cry with them.

VP story from the book to the series has really swept off my feet. Some people may feel triggered or that they are deranged, the thing is, they make us feel something. In a world of boredom and plots that feel all-the-same-obvious thing, VP made me feel too much and too many feelings. The fact that I went from ‘this bastard’ to ‘my beloved’ is everything someone can look for in literature and film. Redemption that feels impossible and yet happens, plus love that is meant to have a happily ever after (even when we know that is not gonna happen). The details they put since day one in the eps have really filled my heart with joy and made watching the episodes more than once a must, looking for information about the scenes online a necessity and discussing it with fellow stans irresistible. Watching it while airing was a great decision, because this was one of the greatest experiences I've ever had with a series.

Based on a novel that is even more aggressive and problematic, the team made a lot of changes and the final product is not only more palatable, but also more logical and appealing. I agree that some things could be different, like Porsche's mom arc and, yes, many parts did feel rushed, like the end and VP. I understand those who say that there are some plot holes and unfinished business, but I stand by the fact that some questions were left unanswered to guarantee season 2 hooks. Overall it was a great and enjoyable watch with a lot of angst and some unforgettable moments.

✨️Cast

All my love to the cast. I say we all won big time with the casting work in this series, from Tong and his sunny crazy Tankhun, who stole every scene, to Bible, a rookie who showed a range of emotions and the attitude not even big shots can. I have to say Bible as Vegas was a gift, but VP wouldn’t be the same if Build weren’t Pete - brilliant, he was brilliant.

✨️Characters

There is no saint in KP, every character is flawed and you even hate or want to punch them at different moments. But at the same time, when they hurt, you want to console them and destroy whoever is between them and their happiness (and that is you Korn). I will talk about my favorite ones. I can't express in words how much I loved Vegas and Pete. It is quite impressive how much their story touched me and I'm a proud VP stan.
**Pete** is a fallen angel with all his complexities and insecurities. It was a joy and great surprise to have a glimpse of his background and his dark side. He puts on such a good facade you don't believe such smiley man could be this sad, hurt and emotionally damaged too. What a great character in the series, you see he is absolutely the only one who can stand up to Vegas. Pete showed me many things, that we should forgive and that others might affect us but we can control our reactions and above all, that honesty is the only way.
**Vegas** is my love, he has all my heart even when he is this monster, when he is despicable, cunning, uncontrolable, stupid, a cry baby, a slap magnet, ignorant and also because of all that! He is damaged in every level, he feels worthless, he has been used, abused and wrapped in his father's fingers. His ugly was so interesting, I couldn't help but fall in love with him when he softened up. He caught my attention when he first said things in English and when he treated Macau so well I was even more intrigued. I asked myself 'how could such a lowlife love his brother so much?' Not being a complete monster after all. He made me uncomfortable, made me want him to suffer and made me almost have a heart attack when he was shot.
