Reviews
Storyline is string thin but watch for the comedy value
I was brought to this as a We Best Love (a BL) fan so needed to watch for the MLOk I think you need to approach this with a certain attitude. It's a comedy with a little drama as opposed to an original story or deep plot . It centres around couples where there is an obvious societal difference or value which they each have to work through.
There are 4 couples. The main 3 couples and 1 side. No spoilers so I won't say who gets with whom. One of the couples has a sexy ML and another couple give the most comedic laughs throughout.
There's the obvious family relationships, some good, some bad and some really annoying. Obligatory evil characters are thrown in for good measure.
Still watching so will update accordingly but with 3 episodes to go I am struggling with the FL . Her facial expressions and views just grate. Let's hope she bucks up.
Ok so I'm finished and the ending felt a bit rushed as it neatly wrapped up each couple's story and the parental issues in ep 24. Felt like it could have done with one more episode
It's a sweet cupcake kinda watch and I think forgettable so rewatch is low
Enjoy

Cute, but super cheesy
Love on Shoestring was a cute drama that I enjoyed watching., but it had some definite cringe moments. The acting was sometimes over the top, there were tons of cartoonish sound effects, and the plot wasn't all that complex. That said, it was fun to watch. I enjoyed the romances in the drama (there were many), and the actors did a good job (despite the over the top moments). I was a bit disappointed by the last two episodes because they wrapped everything up super quickly, but overall, this was an enjoyable, light, fluffy drama.Was this review helpful to you?
