rape is not romance.
Rape in a romcom and fandom. Male lead's motivation not an excuse. The female lead's reaction is not open to interpretation. The more watchers debate, the more I want to point out sexual assault by the male lead is not punishment, or love, but criminal. To think a character (FL) has it coming to right a wrong, is an odd way to defend a drama. Both the writer and director should have adapted; rape is not romance, and does not belong in the romance genre. Avoid.FL: "Saying sorry will it make it any better? If someone were to rape you and say sorry. Will you forgive them?"

They deserve each other
Like many others say, this one had both the leads being morally questionable, which is interesting. Hes a playboy shes a scammer.I have to say tho i got bored. It took long screen time for their hate. Like playing with each other kinda funny, i see it, maybe im just not in the mood, so i was just over it. I also watched in a site where it was 31 for some reason, so they were cut in half and that just made it seem even more slower. I wished they moved on to flirting vibes when tricking each other sooner. When it got there it picked up. There was however *that* scene later on so... but i will say compared to other thai dramas it was kinda in a different tone, but still. I was anger, n then the fake *that* scene was even more anger for me.
The villians rlly threw me off. I thought they would be the stupid goofy kinda like lowkey more realistic jealousy bs in a sense that they were all lowkey petty, but then it went off n got serious but the tone was just like goofy annoying second lead so it was weird. Like the actions are like serious but the tone was not. Idk i didnt like that. It was so stupid imo.
The second couples well i didnt rlly get why they werent together sooner. They’re literally too pure for anyone else like they are for each other. The best friend stuff i skip.
Acting wise i rlly cant say i watched in 2x speed. I prob wont watch this again. Just cause. But i still did finish. I also wrote this just bcs i saw no one has before so. Not bcs i rlly dislike it or like it in a particular way. My 7 just means its eh. Like not smth i would recommend or watch again, but im not sure if i would chose not to watch it if went back in time, uk what i mean.
