Most Boring Main Male Lead Of All Time

The whole story was just very all over the place. The supposedly evil scenes and this mysterious guy just randomly pop up after not being relevant at all in certain episodes and I felt like it was more of an add-on and a nuisance to the story rather than something actually interesting. The concept was great the execution was not so much.
The main issue with the story is how the Main Male Lead had zero build-up with the Female Lead and still got her. I had no problem with him winning since the Second Male Lead wasn't much but at least he tried and had decent chemistry with Female Lead. The Main Lead did absolutely nothing and still won. Especially in episode 13 when they were on the date he messed up in every way possible, had negative rizz, and then she called him annoying even though he didn't do anything and he got a kiss???? That had zero build-up and was just terrible. The Second Male Lead wasn't great and didn't give me second-lead syndrome but since the Main Male Lead was so bad honestly the Second Male Lead would have been better even though he was just alright

The supporting cast was much better as their romances had some buildup and were solid nothing exceptional though. The Female Lead is very outgoing and I feel like people would enjoy her character but the Main Male Lead was just not good in terms of story (Not hating on his acting) it's just the character they gave him didn't do anything and won which still confuses me.

Overall I don't think this drama is worth a watch due to the Main Male Lead being barely relevant and randomly decided he was gonna be the male lead on episode 13. The Second Male Lead wasn't anything great either so he's not worth the watch, The story was a mess although great in concept was not done greatly. I did enjoy the FEMALE LEAD though as she made it bearable to watch and enjoyable at times but still, the Main Male Lead made it hard to watch. Overall this show is not worth the watch.
