I liked it and would like to see the series completed.
It feels a lot like a Youtube series than a studio production, not that there is anything wrong with that. If you don't compare this to large budget and major studio productions, it is fine. This is a low budget drama with beginning actors and actresses, or maybe more accurately the first professional acting job for for most of them. I thought the acting was actually pretty good for them not being seasoned actors and actresses.
I liked the basic idea of the two characters that were buddies all through school (college?), and how they sorta had a crush on each other, or just felt comfortable together. They even worked together and did everything as a couple. But they weren't a couple, and couldn't talk about it or express their true feelings. Then you throw into the mix a new guy co-worker who pursues one of the pair, and chaos ensues. It was an interesting story in general, but not much gets resolved in the end. (But might be in a sequel?) I think the story was a lot more realistic and relatable than the crap we get from Mame that is wildly popular for some reason.
There are definitely some issues with various parts of this series from the music being louder than the dialogue at times, to some aspects of the story being a bit confusing. That being said, I have occasionally seen as bad or worse from the major studios. Even GMM and the other large players have put out some pretty bad stuff, not everything is SOTUS or Tale of a Thousand Stars. I think many people are way too harsh on their ratings of this series. The same people who are disparaging this series also seem to be very critical of other series, like if it isn't perfect in every way they can't get over it. So maybe take some of these comments with a grain of salt.
This was pretty short and you don't have to invest a lot of time to watch it. It doesn't drag on for dozens of episodes which is a nice change. You can binge watch this in an afternoon, and maybe it is best done that way instead of spreading it across days or weeks. I liked it and would like to see the series completed. I also would like to see more from this studio to see if they can grow and fix the few things they got wrong.
