It's so bad...
Hands down the worst plot of any piece of media I have ever consumed.
The resort setting is beautiful, the soundtrack was good, the main 2 actors were super hot, so it takes a special kind of bad to mess all that up so hard. But it is a special kind of bad.
Episode 0 is pretty good. It's not amazing unless you're comparing it to the rest of the series. I suggest watching episode 0, then episode 12 but STOP at the "two years later" transition (that scene was just cringe, not cute).
Here's another example of how bad it was: I suffered through episode 11 and totally intended to watch episode 12, but life got a little busy for a couple days, and then LITERALLY a month later I remembered I never finished this drama. How do you forget to watch the finale? When it's as exciting as watching paint dry, I guess.
I would be totally willing to watch another series with the two main actors. The jury is still out on whether or not they can truly act, but they are cute and had good chemistry once in a while.
I don’t even know where to begin. The constant "LodeStar Productions" transition. The severely unnecessary and triggering behavior of Nine's girlfriend. The way everyone had bouts of going monotone and stone faced. How everyone at the office would just stare into space and stir coffee all day long. The completely bizarre backstory about the theme park.
Oh, one of the best (worst): Nine and Danouea, after their one night stand, get back into relationships with the people they had broken up with prior to the one night stand. They then sleep with each other again, thus both are clearly cheating on their significant others. Meanwhile, Nine constantly admits he has a girlfriend. Everyone including Danouea knows Nine has a girlfriend. But when it's in the news that Nine's girlfriend is famous, Danouea is mortally offended, absolutely beside himself in shock and betrayal that... Nine has a girlfriend. Did I mention Danouea had even MET Nine's girlfriend (although it was Candy pretending to be his girlfriend but that doesn't really matter), she had been introduced to him as Nine's girlfriend, and still... it's a huge (time wasting) plot point that Danouea is heartbroken to find out Nine has a girlfriend (but he knew that the whole time).
And so on with the cheating. All they do is cheat on other people with each other, then Danouea has an entire breakdown twice over Nine cheating on him once they get together. Honey, why are you surprised?
Candy was the only redeeming part of this series. That's all I have to say.
