Other than the main leads, I liked the acting of the two actors who were going to have a fake marriage with the main leads.

Acting appears to be well done. Story or narrative disappointing
This series’ story started out in an interesting direction then collapsed. Trust is fragile. The series portrays the negative effects of dishonest communication and of toxic and exploitive parenting on adult children.
The MCs and a supporting character all came from dysfunctional families where parenting was toxic and in the case of one female character exploitative. The FMC and the MMC naively avoid honest communication: both characters made faulty assumptions leading to misunderstandings which created conflict in their relationship. The MMC was portrayed as an unsighted emotionally distant and cautious person. The FMC was portrayed as a petulant immature young woman who was inexperienced in dealing with the MMC. The acting appeared natural. The story was disappointing. It glossed over the exploitation of the mother of the supporting female character; she was given an invitation to her daughter’s wedding. Also ignored and not addressed was the explosive, manipulative and controlling behavior of the FMCs mother. She hid her husband’s serious condition from his daughter and more. Finally the narrative floundered in the last few episodes and the events were predictably trite and both MCs continue to behave immaturely even after they marry especially the FMC. Turning to alcohol to assuage pain or to openly reveal truth is an overused trope - isn’t there another way to express disappointment/sadness and an unwillingness to speak honestly about feelings?

Ceritanya menarik walaupun hanya cerita pendek
Pengorbanan seorang kakak sekaligus kekasih yang selalu melindungi wanitanya adalah sesuatu yg luar biasa
Yg sy suka setiap drama adalah akhir dari ceritanya selalu bahagia
