Story thrives part because of nostalgia and part because of the high school romance setting
I remember being obsessed with wattpad back in the day, particularly with books that had stories like this (The Bad Boy's Girl FTW). this story is old and wattpad back then used to be problematic but the director could have tweaked the story a little to make keifer lesser red flag and be more suitable to today's audience. in this day and age when everyone is very aware of boundaries and what behaviour counts as red flags, how am i supposed to ship the FL and the ML when the ML has literally broken her nose? and the acting of the ML is so bad, even scenes where he is supposed to be feeling emotional and stuff, it's difficult to believe it.
The SML, according to the ones who have read the book, is supposed to be a horrid manipulative guy and I waited patiently till ep 16 to start hating on him. But I couldn't. How can I? Till the end he has been portrayed as a guy who is just trying to protect the woman he loves from the bad guy. After the last episode, one can't even root for JJ for uniting (somewhat) with the guy she loves. It looks more like she is an idiot and that Yuri was wronged and since Yuri's acting is better, it's more easy to feel bad for him because you can feel the emotions somewhat.
Andres somewhat redeemed himself in the last episode and his acting was a bit more convincing but absolutely nothing will erase the way he said "are you deaf? leave" in the initial episodes. Acting as bad as that can make anyone turn in their graves.
