The friendship is the best part of the drama

I get that this is a romantic comedy but the most beautiful part of the drama is the friendship between Nan Heng and his peers.
The female lead is written beautifully. I can understand that many people don't like her but she is supposed to be a flawed character who is about self preservation and preservation of her family. She has fear of losing which generally doesn't allow her to freely love because love is for the brave.
However, you see a lot of growth in her by episode 30.
As for LYN, I liked his performance here more than Prisoner of beauty if we consider acting. His eyes have been more expressive here and it has helped me root for his character.
I have to admire the second lead/grey character here for being able to successfully make me hate him. I think he could have been a little bit subtle in his hateful gaze but its okay because the script is about three way stabbing 💀 and his acting is in line with that kind of script.
The female lead is a natural at comedy and she didn't seem like she was trying too hard with slapstick humor.
Overall, i liked it better than similar themed dramas like Love game in eastern fantasy.
