Disappointing

I feel like I had a different experience watching this than many other reviewers did.

At the start, I did enjoy parts of the show, even though it was a bit more 'slice of life' than I usually choose to watch. But then the cracks started to appear.

The FMC's mother annoyed me. It was distracting and frustrating how calluses, controlling, shallow and unsupportive she was. And the show moved on from that pretty quickly.
The romance felt one sided. I didnt feel a lot of chemistry coming from the FLC.
The MLC's mother could have had an interesting storyline with early dementia. But instead they showed her being "forgetful" and then didn't mention it again, like it had cured itself.

There were probably highlights and good moments but by the end it just became a drag watching this. I had to force myself to finish the last few episodes.
