All That Build Up for an Ambugious Relationship with "No Real" Happy Ending.
The drama itself was a fun watch. The actors were great and even the story was amazing... Until they had Sota leave for the UK while their relationship was left ambigous.
•❅✧❅✦ STORY •❅✧❅✦
The story is great. A younger brother falling for his sister's boyfriend after he starts tutoring him. He and his tutor hit it off instantly and they become close friends. However, the more they meet, the more he realizes he likes him... But he shouldn't because his tutor is his sister's boyfriend.
All of this heartache and struggling is interesting to watch as he clearly likes him, but makes excuses for his feelings. But the story starts to go downhill when we actually learn that his sister's boyfriend was actually her boy-friend, as in male friend, and they are not dating. Theoretically, this is where they should start dating and the real romance begins, but that is not the case. Their relationship starts to fall into the "I don't know if I like you as a lover, friend, or if what I have for you is admiration" category. Which isn't too bad if they actually end up dating, but in the last episode, Sota ends up going to the UK for 2 years to study abroad and there is no epilogue for his return. (IDK if there is one in the special ep as I haven't watched it yet.) Natsu also makes a speech about "it's okay if their relationship is ambiguous" which leaves us wondering if they really will end up dating in the future. But there is no certainty as Sota leaves for the UK and nothing happens.
•❅✧❅✦ Overall •❅✧❅✦
The drama was great until the ending ruined it. I was invested and cheering for them up until the end and felt betrayed when Sota left for the UK. It was so sudden and random. It also ruined any great image I had for him because I would have thought he would have treasured his new relationship with Natsu and his family because his own family seemed to be messy. But anyways, the ending was disappointed. It's a real waste of potential because the actors were amazing and they had me hooked.
