TBH i started watching this show with very very high expectations.. but in the first 2 episodes i wanted to throw my remote at the TV and stop because of the acting.. The cast looks good no doubt but in the first two episodes, the acting was wayyyy too stiff and i felt like even a 5 year old could show better expressions than that. However, the cast redeemed themselves starting from the 3rd episode.

then their personalities came through, and better acting was noticeable. The buildup is steady and not rushed or slow. im on the 11th episode rn and some swoonworthy moments already occured and i had to control my scream because dvkugswhbuo ? This series wont disappoint. The animation and portrayal of panic, anxiety and hard work (tong yao) were on point too. Not to mention the rest of the cast is also their own person. no one is present to make the leads look good.

ALSO, the one thing that pushed me to write this review is, if you're a die-hard fan of the untamed like me, and will watch anything that has even a SEMBLANCE of it in it, then watch till episode 11. 22:08 is the time stamp. It's shown as the main poster being kept in a photo frame and i almost choked on my food when i saw it. It's not even talked about but since a blurry angle of it was there, i like tong yao wayyyyyy more now (she likes the untamed what do u expect??)
