Welcome to the HIStory3: Trapped 圈套 Community on Dreamwidth

Even the though the fandom is spread around on various social media platforms, I think there are enough people on Dreamwidth who have seen the show to merit a separate community to celebrate our favorite disaster gangsters and their disaster cop boyfriends.

This is a comm for discussing and sharing the love of Trapped 圈套 and its related content, including:
• All types of discussion, discourse, and squee
• Actor news and spam (RPS and speculation is acceptable)
• Fan works (fanfiction, podfic, art, icons, vids, etc.), including your own work, challenges, recs and fanwork finding, beta requests
• Episode recaps

You are encouraged to post content directly to the community so that discussion can happen in one central place.

The Community Guidelines can be found on the profile page.

To start things off, let's introduce ourselves, tell each other how we came into the fandom, and what our favorite things about Trapped 圈套 are.

Hi, hi, I found this comm through a mention at maggie33's post, and I've been excitedly reading through the recaps. Thanks for creating this comm! Trapped is the series that ate my brain last year and continues to do so, even though I got a little side-tracked by the Untamed as well.

How I came to watch Trapped

I was vaguely aware of the HIStory series since 2018, and finally got round to watching both the HIStory2 series, and from there found that there was a HIStory3 series in the works. The trailer was adorable so I started following when it began airing.

My favourite scene in Trapped

Oh where to start.

The lift scene, for the excellent back and forth dynamic between MSF and TY. But the scene that really got me was the one in hospital, with TY's late night visit. I get emotional no matter how many times I see that scene. The two of them having an understanding just through a simple interaction... I could see forever for them in that.

For Jack and ZZ, it would have to be Jack's first visit to ZZ's home, where he examines the possessions left behind by ZZ's grandma: it's like some knowledge slotting into place for him, that this is ZZ, who openly defied him but is like the boy next door. And that look Jack gives to Jun Wei when he goes to pick up ZZ (outside the police station): that look of hey, take your arm off from my ZZ''s shoulders. And Jun Wei is all, okaaay, he's yours.

Why I like Trapped

They're... adults? No, seriously, the previous HIStory series mostly involved high school students, and I enjoyed the change in setup when it came to Trapped. That and the unabashedly tropey relationship shenanigans between the pairings.

Where to find me

I'm issenllo on DW and issen4 on both LJ and AO3. Nice to meet you all!

Hi there!

I just love them scene between Jack and Zhao Zi where he's looking at all Zhao Zi's grandma's possession's so much. And I love it when he says that ZZ's grandma was very wise, it's such a warm moment. And because it's all happening in Zhao Zi's house it's all the more intimate - and sets everything up so well for Jack to turn up bag and baggage and offer his heart to ZZ later on.

Hi, and welcome! I'm so happy to see you here, another familiar name floating around!

And that look Jack gives to Jun Wei when he goes to pick up ZZ (outside the police station): that look of hey, take your arm off from my ZZ''s shoulders. And Jun Wei is all, okaaay, he's yours.

The little grin that Jack shoots Jun Wei, and Jun Wei catching on that ZZ is totally Jack's now is SO FUNNY. I LOVE IT. It's so different from the first time that Jack shows up the station, I love it SO MUCH.
