I cannot watch anymore of this.

I don't even know what to say if I'm being honest.

It started great. It had been a while since I last watched a K-drama, so I felt very excited watching the first episode, then things started going downhill FOR ME the moment it was revealed to us that the ml likes the fl. I understand why he's reluctant to tell her how she feels, but I've seen this story A BILLION times before! Moreover, I don't like how he started treating her like trash in order to distance himself from him, in response to having realised his feelings. The worst part is that the FL just kept taking all his BS and kept chasing after him, I understand why she did that, but personally, it's not something I intend to tolerate any further.

Another reason why I have decided to drop this show is because of the same old tactic - throwing in exes whenever the candle won't burn any longer. Like, please, can we move on from this guys?

I normally prefer to complete shows whether I like it or not, but at the moment I'm too irritated to do so. I will most probably finish this drama at some point, considering that, as a serial K-drama binger, there's nothing else for me to watch lol, I may even have much better things to say about this drama when I have reached the end. However, at the moment, I'm considering dropping it for a while.

Note: This is not to say that the whole show is completely terrible, as I have not watched all the episodes yet. I may even be venting out all the frustration shared by many viewers at some point who have good reviews of the show. Therefore, watch it or not? It's 50/50.
