When you see the names "CJ ENM" and "Studio Dragon" flash across the screen in the opening credits, you know you’re in for a visual and technical treat. True to form, Love Your Enemy delivers on production quality, with polished cinematography and meticulous attention to detail. The music, too, is a standout, boasting contributions from some of the biggest names in the industry, making the OST a highlight of the drama.

The series starts strong, peppered with laugh-out-loud moments that genuinely catch you off guard. The humor, especially in the early episodes, keeps the tone light and engaging. However, as the narrative unfolds, it becomes clear that Love Your Enemy is, at its core, a textbook romcom.

Unfortunately, the drama leans heavily on tired tropes. The depiction of characters—despite being in their 40s—sometimes feels juvenile, bordering on cringeworthy. The frequent reliance on the "adults acting like middle schoolers" cliché detracts from the emotional depth that one might expect from a series with mature protagonists.

Midway through, I found myself hoping for a pivot—a moment where the story would rise above its predictable beats and offer something refreshing or profound. Sadly, that moment never came. While it’s not a bad drama by any means, it fails to leave a lasting impression, playing it safe within the confines of its genre.

Love Your Enemy is an easy watch for those seeking light entertainment with high production values and catchy music. But for viewers craving depth or a fresh take on romance, it might feel like a missed opportunity.
