As always, these are just my personal opinions and not meant to offend :)

I feel like this show fell short of its potential. It started off feeling cheeky and sexy, but then it just sort of felt like it was rushed. So much seemed to happen off screen, especially towards the end of the series and it just felt a little bit cheap.

I personally found Uea very unlikeable; his tragic backstory was sad, of course, but his personality was just too snobby and entitled and I constantly felt like King deserved better. However, King’s character fell a bit flat for me; his whole arranged marriage thing felt like it was going to add to the story but instead it was pretty pointless to the plot and unnecessary.

However, for me, the worst character was Jade - oh gosh, every single time he was on screen and opened his mouth I wanted to close the tab and never watch again. I can honestly say I won’t be watching Middleman’s Love because this character is just grating.

The show wasn’t awful, but it felt more like a cheap copy of Big Dragon, if I’m honest.
