Hi everybody, and welcome! I'm Skuld, your admin for this comm. I decided to start this, because my friends suggested it on Twitter, and I think we have reached a critical mass of Dreamwidth folks who might want a comm to squee about Trapped!
How I came to watch Trapped I watched it on Viki sometime around July 2019, at the insistence of naye, who had gotten word of it via xparrot and gnine, as a low-key, short BL drama, where the characters are actually allowed to be out and gay because it's Taiwanese. We were told it has ALL THE FANFICTION TROPES, and boy, was that true or what?
My favorite scene in Trapped It's a tie between Meng Shao Fei tripping over a tree trunk and falling into Tang Yi's arms (which was telegraphed way in advance, shown in slow motion, and replayed from three different angles), and Zhao Zi falling off the ladder into Jack's arms and into the swimming pool.
I don't think I'd howled as loudly with laughter and delight since Yuri!!! on Ice had aired in 2016.
I like Trapped because It is absolutely unabashed about what it is. It's a trope bingo blackout that delivers on the relationships you came here for. It features larger-than-life disaster adults in silly situations, and they get their happy endings, with just enough left up to the imagination that there's plenty of sandbox space to play around in for fanfiction.
Oh, and Andy Bian and Kenny Chen are great kissers too. That helps.

Jack/Zhao Zi are my current OTP, so you may have already seen my Jack-centric The Divine Art of the Househusband series and my other fics in the same universe on AO3.
I am also found squeeing about Trapped on Twitter (buttonthemdown), and Tumblr (the-wintry-mizzenmast).
