Absurd, disrespectful and disregards important issues.

Hated how they made Do Hyun the "bad guy" for not being there whenever Song Yi snaps her fingers. Tae Oh is rich, spoiled, has no job, is not studying, zero responsibilities, 100% free all the time... Of course he can always be there for the FL.

But then they try to make the poor, hard working guy seem bad for....... being at work and not picking up the phone immediately? Fuck right off.

Also I hated that in episode 1 the FL was literally gonna COMMIT SUICIDE!!!! And then that's barely even discussed again. Depression and suicide are VERY serious things, and they're not treated as such in this show.

On another note, the 2 side characters who were supposed to be comedic reliefs were just..... too ridiculous for me. I was just rolling my eyes and cringing the whole time.

Also, why the fuck would these people all go live with Tae Oh in the first place? There wasn't a good reason for that, it was literally just to move the plot along. It's so stupid. Everyone is so entitled and bratty.

Could've been cute but they added unnecessary bullying plotline and then rushed the love story

Things I liked:
- The acting and cinematography
- How organized and methodical Chu Sangwoo was
- Ryu Ji Hye was very adorable and I'd love to see more of her
- Sangwoo setting touch boundries
- Jaeyoung‬ asking Sangwoo for consent to kiss!!!

Things I disliked:
- Jaeyoung was literally a bully and a stalker?? What the fuck?? And they are in UNIVERSITY! This man is in his 20s bullying another guy. It's literally pathetic, and Sangwoo deserved better.
- Their relationship felt rushed
- Their 1st kiss???? Sangwoo kissed Jaeyoung WITHOUT CONSENT?? WHEN HE WAS ASLEEP? WTF???? This was especially weird when the show made sure to show them set boundries and ask for consent in other scenes...... :/
- Jaeyoung being controlling and trying to keep Ryu Ji Hye away... Yikes.

Kinda silly and rushed...

(I've only watched up to episode 9)

• I don't understand why the literal mafia would hire an untrained man and let him have a super important job. It makes no sense.

• Why would Porsche always disrespect the people he works for? At best, he could lose his job that he somehow got and so desperately needs, at worse THEY COULD LITERALLY KILL YOU MY DUDE!! And they wouldn't care either ???

• Kinn and Porsche's relationship was kind of rushed... They talked a couple of times (and their interactions weren't even friendly, ler alone romantic) and suddenly they're kissing and having sex... :/ Idk, I just feel like it came out of nowhere. I wish there'd been more development in their relationship. At some point they're promising they'll ~always come back to each other~ and I'm sitting there flabbergasted that they're at *that* level already lol.

• The "funny" moments in the show are just too silly and cartoonish. Not only doesn't the comedic, romantic and serious stuff not mesh very well, but, additionally, the "comedy" isn't even that funny, no offense. ?

• They play the same emotional song whenever the scene is supposed to be heartfelt lol stopppp c'mon there are more songs out there! ?

• The scene in ep7 where Porsche is lowkey almost assaulted (?) and then Kinn comes in, gets rid of the other dude, doesn't let Porsche leave and then starts making out and having sex with Porsche ????????? Idk I didn't like it. Weird vibes. Also, very inappropriate moment, since Porsche is at the very least shaken about what just happened.

• Speaking of sex scenes: some of the sex scenes in this show are the cringiest I've ever seen ??

• Their date in ep8 was really cute!

• Kim and Chay are the best part of the show by far!! ???

Ridiculous and cartoonish acting destroyed a cute story

This show was so painful to watch. It could've been cute, and there were a lot of elements that I liked, but GOD. THE ACTING!!! The acting was so annoying that it made me drop the show. I gave up.


~~The Worst Part: the Acting~~

Most characters were incredibly annoying. They yelled, stomped around, flailed their arms, made ridiculous faces.... And I'd be okay with that, if it happened occasionally. But no. They do it ALL. THE. TIME.

Literally. The FL is always pouting and making "funny eyebrow faces". She's gorgeous, but I've never been so annoyed looking at someone's face. She pouts while eating. She pouts while walking. She pouts when she's happy, sad, surprised. Sometimes people are telling her serious and important stuff, and everyone is reacting appropriately, and then it pans to the FL and BOOM. *Funny eyebrow pouty face.* It's RIDICULOUS and so infuriating to watch.

Most side characters are like this too. FL's friends, their coach, ML's best friend... All of them were constantly screaming and flailing and being annoying. It was supposed to be funny, but it was literally just obnoxious. I could not take any of them seriously because they were too over-the-top and cartoonish. It felt like I was watching a show aimed at toddlers ages 4 and below.

The only decently acted characters were the ML and his brother and ex-girlfriend. I didn't care much about any of them (and I actually disliked the ex) but at least they were 3-dimensional characters that acted like real human beings and not Troom-Troom actors who need to exaggerate, yell and overact everything in order to make toddlers laugh.


~~Other Things I Didn't Like~~

- There's a lot of "telling" instead of "showing". I hate how they always say out loud everything that they're feeling or thinking. Instead of conveying their emotions or letting the audience pick up on what they're thinking, the characters will just be alone and then start stating all of their thoughts out loud. It's so unnatural, and also really lazy.

- The characters were sooooo childish. Not just because of the cartoonish, ridiculous acting, but also because of the things they did. They're constantly nagging each other and act like children, when they're literally GROWN ADULTS IN THEIR 20S!!! Examples:

---- FL thinks ML stole her clothes. He could've just said "Oh, someone just ran by, must've been him you were running after, he went that way." and their stupid rivalry would've been over.

---- ML always calling FL "chubby" despite knowing she doesn't like it??

---- ML steals FL's tray in the cafeteria and then they just start screaming as she tries to get her food back???? My guy you're a GROWN MAN.

---- FL is in her 20s and lies about everything in order to impress a guy. Like..... you really think that will work? Are you 10?

---- The FL grabbed the ML's head and sneezed on his face to make him sick?? WTF? Are you a child??


~~Things I Liked~~

- The slow burn. I appreciate when a romance isn't "love at 1st sight". It's much better and realistic.

- The cinematography (but then again, most kdramas look pretty to me, so that ain't saying much)

- As I already mentioned, the ML, his brother and his ex were decently acted (unlike every other character lol). I didn't love their characters though.... :/
