Why did I actually complete this?

if i could give step by step love a 0/10, i would. that was probably the worst drama i have actually watched, and I'm being serious. i would take a show with horrendous acting over this. idek why i continued watching it but my goodness that was horrendous.

it's like everybody and their mom were out to get the leads and break them apart. even the leads themselves. like oh my gosh. how can someone be so short sighted? the ml was pissing me off half the time, the fl should've stood her ground and called people out earlier but she was the only one i didn't have a ton of problems with

The sml oh gosh oh boooooooy, absolutely not. red flag red flag red flag. BUT THE THING IS... i actually rooted for him at one point. that just goes to show, i hated the ML SO MUCH at some points, that I AGREED with the FETCHING SML
The sfl who is obsessed with HER LITERAL BROTHER, idc if he's adopted and y'all are not biologically related THAT IS DISGUSTING. you guys grew up TOGETHER. +she was so confusing half the time, her character wasn't consistent at all. like girlie you're terrible, please stop.

the fl's family was a riot, like c'mon... there's no way y'all are this obsessed over somebody living their life separately. you have literally disowned her part of the family so why are y'all still coming for her? ridiculous.

the storyline was an utter trainwreck. it was like somebody set bombs on every part of the train tracks. it was extremely messy, did not have a single intelligent thought put into it. literally NOTHING was good about it. they thought they could throw in a few "kissing" scenes that were "steamy" and call it good. and even if you were just there for the "skinship" you literally had to wait 17 or so episodes for it to even happen. it was also disgusting to watch those scenes bc they were just going at it and it didn't even look comfortable. their poor lips were probably swollen after every scene and not bc of "steamy" kisses but bc of chafing. +they were making out in public, in a freaking ELEVATOR like please have some decency and respect for those poor souls who just want to take an elevator and get greeted with their boss's and coworker's lips bright red. NASTY.

this whole show was a mess. the acting wasn't even that good. every character, i hated at one point in time which just goes to show how bad this show was bc I'm pretty forgiving of characters' actions but NAH SON they were B.A.D. Actually ykw, I liked one singular character. The plant man who just watered his plants and gave good advice. He was the only one keeping me sane watching this. Hallelujah to him. Oh and the dad and the mom, they were the real ones in this show.

omg i actually hated this drama so much. maybe it's bc i watched this at 2am or just I'm in one of those moods, but nothing could save this drama. was it a hate watch? definitely. was it an enjoyable hate watch? absolutely not.
it's been more than 3 years since I've written a review, but this drama was so bad, I was forced into writing a review.
