In terms of acting. I enjoyed it very much. The music was okay. The plot was a little interesting as well. What I enjoyed the most was the ML role. So often in these like lai horns you see the ML act oblivious to the main girls feelings and being ridiculous about trying to manage multiple relationships. In this on, what stood out to me the most to me was that the ML did not allow the 2FL to drag him around by the nose. He wasn’t ignorant and he was not a pushover. I enjoyed his firmness the most. In terms of the FL, I liked her character in the beginning but after the halfway point, it got boring. She was smart, strong but I felt just a bit to depressing. She rode her feeling from an insult in episode 1 all the way the the 2nd to last episode. That’s just way too long. For me it’s not romance, it’s torture. Her feelings were initially hurt and the writers rode that out almost to the very end.

In addition I’m a sucker for great romance series even the ones that involve some complexities and little triangles but this one was unique in the sense that there was definitely love involved but there was really no romance. Don’t get me wrong I’m not talking about making out or anything what I mean is that there was no togetherness or unity or any sort of agreement until the last 10 minutes of the series. So you never really get to enjoy them excepting each other‘s feelings or officially dating or officially saying that they love each other. What you will get in the series is a matter of pushing and pulling for the first few episodes and then at that point it is a matter of stubbornness and pursuit. There’s no real relationships that take place between the two leads until the last 10 minutes of the series. So if you were looking for like a sweet romance where people are dating and fighting all odds and all that good stuff this one is definitely not it. They do seem to have OK chemistry but the FL had for her stance of a brick wall against the ML up to episode 14 so it wasn’t really that swoon worthy. Enjoyable somewhat if you can put up with a deranged girlfriend.

If I can described this in a few words, I would say “a person carrying hurt and insult is not entertaining.
