what could be done in 12, was pushed to 17.

Too long!

Overall I think the story was fine but damn it shouldn't have even passed 12 episodes. especially for a show with no b, c, or runner plot(s). for it is 17, it could've used another couple/conflict, especially with all the wasted talent on account of the other female characters. (we literally see that with Phukan (the actress), she's maybe on screen 5, 7 times and she's on the poster.)

I really hated that they left my homegirl May to just be another conquest and we had to brush over the fact that her best friend ended up marrying the guy! Like homegirl pours her whole heart out to you and in some writing that feels like some guy wrote it, she just says you should've been more careful. Plus after they get married it's never really brought up again. I think this really says a lot about how lacking the conflict is...everyone is so focused on getting this money back that we don't have time for literally anything else.

My absolute favorite part was Jen. there were so many times that I couldn't help but wonder: what's your goal? like do you wanna be with the ML or use his money or keep your job (lol she loses all three). I do kinda love that she really did play herself. All she had to do was stay quiet and play dumb but this b couldn't help herself. I love that she had the gall.

Mew being here made me ask why are you here...to be the other guy? Also, I can't even tell if his acting is just bad here (which is odd since I know he can do angst well) or just the sub-par writing when it came to the two male leads. For the life of me, I truly couldn't tell you what the motivations behind half of these characters were. ...I'm just lost.

You are telling me Jes's character is some kinda of cheating playboy...yet besides Jen and the big reveal (his...not aunt) all of the girls he's been with are primarily one-night stands due to trauma? Like let him hook up with MAY and while I'm glad May didn't do anything... I kinda wish she did? There was some serious favor lacking in the whole cheating escapade plot...they should've just made him a scammer who f's his fake aunt... The cheating (?)/one-night stand phase (?) was weak.

Also...who were the perfumes for? I watch most of these at half speed and I know for a fact they forgot plot lines halfway through cuz the jump from cheater to scammer to oh you guessed it MARRIAGE FRAUD was like one episode to another. I guess that explains the whole harem thing but not really...because the photos provided for his while cheating era were from the same hotel and the whole point of the marriage fraud was that he was doing this thing internationally! I think what makes me laugh most is when the lady who is helping her with her case says that she didn't lose enough money...HUH like it sounded like quite a bit of money to me.

All in all, while I had fun this was kinda a miss. I was bored half the time and now as I've been writing this I've just become mad.
