Overflowing with cuteness, but takes two forevers to reach the good parts

The Good:
⌲The OTP's relationship (the timeless frenemies to lovers trope)
⌲ The cuteness
⌲ The fluff
⌲ FL's chubby face
⌲ ML's relatively good acting
⌲ The complete lack of breakups (there is one 10 minutes long quarrel)
⌲ The lack of convoluted problems
⌲ Great secondary couples
⌲ Great chemistry x3

The Neutral:
⌲ This is an extremely silly show.
⌲ It had an OST?
⌲ Archery things
⌲ I've seen far worse triangles, but it's not great.
⌲ Cainiao & Razer product placements. (the Cainiao ones were horrible + Cainiao sucks)
⌲ Cannot believe that FL did not spend 3 hours to open the locked box herself.

The Bad:
⌲ The first half of the drama is fairly weak (instead of the usual slow burn romance/friendship, the FL pretty much dates another guy & there is a lot of time wasted on irrelevant things.
⌲ The FL's parents' situation
⌲ FL's mother's remarriage makes 0 sense based on what we learned
⌲ FL starts to casually rent a luxury apartment after graduation
⌲ The dumbest separation plot ever (why would an archer need to train abroad etc)
⌲ The delusional jealous roommate & she has gotten a quick redemption ark as well.
⌲ The most useless coach ever
⌲ FL's stepsister served no purpose
⌲ The side couples should've had more screen time
⌲ As adorable as FL's juvenile personality was, some of her actions were incredibly stupid
