I don't recommend wasting your time on this show...
Overall: I didn't like this show. It's very typical without any creative elements, the characters are not well written, the dialogue is awkward, the story isn't clear and the show is farfetched. I watched the show because people said it was similar to "The Big Boss" (a C-drama that I enjoyed), however, it really isn't that similar. Out of the few shows I watched, this was my least favourite. It's a poorly done enemies to lover drama. The atmosphere of the show feels very off, sometimes I felt unsettled and uncomfortable. The settings are alright, nothing special but I couldn't help but feel the school should have looked a lot different. Despite having luxurious, large exteriors, we only get to see three or four rooms that are constantly being reused. I genuinely couldn't finish watching the show.
Specifics:
Story:
The story doesn't really make sense/is not very realistic. I understand dramas do not have to be realistic but at this point, the drama is just unwatchable. The ML's mother acts very strangely and I can't imagine anybody acting that way. The FL isn't very likeable which is usually a make or break for me. The ML starts showing that he likes FL a little too early on and without proper reason (no room for character development). Plot-wise, it's basically a jerk popular kid who bullies the poor kid until they magically fall in love. The ML has no reason to be as omnipotent as the show makes him out to, they treat him like a god for no purpose. I mainly dislike how the characters "develop". The characters don't really develop, they don't become better or worse personality-wise, however, they will do things very out of character. You cannot exactly pinpoint what kind of character the leads are because they go against what we were led to believe at the beginning of the show. The FL is naive and she ruins other people's lives instead of doing what she thinks is fixing which might be irritating for you (it was irritating for me). There is also an aspect of the show that is easy to forget and seems completely irrelevant to the plot thus far (almost halfway through the show); they kind of just randomly add in how the ML is allergic to kissing women or something like that (not well developed or explained so I'm not sure) at the beginning of the first episode. The story also takes place in a military school but the students really don't do anything related to that, it was only an important part of the leads meeting but then after the leads meet, that plotpoint was somewhat forgotten. The story, plot and characters are poorly paced.
Acting/Cast:
They're okay. There is no connection between any of the characters at all. What's worse is that they wait too long between dialogue before responding which makes it hard to watch and awkward. The leads seem to feel indifferent to each other. I didn't feel any hate, love, friendship, rivalry... nothing! I think this is a mic problem but I could hear them breathing very loudly-especially the ML at certain scenes. That made me very uncomfortable and irritated.
Music:
Not great...I can't say much about it because I didn't hear that much but from what I did hear, it's not very enjoyable.
Rewatch value:
It's so stereotypical I see no reason for you to rewatch it. The show doesn't really include any clever foreshadows or easter eggs that would make the rewatching experience satisfying.
TLDR/summary:
- Bland
- Boring
- Unrealistic
- Characters are poorly developed
- Hard to watch
- Awkward
- Characters show no chemistry
- Poorly paced
- Inconsistent plot/settings
- Poor atmosphere
