I really like it it was a good watch but it had so much potential to be better. Both the main ship and the side couple were actually done well when it comes to character arcs but again the only problem for me was they were going way too slow, and this is coming from a slow burn lover but the main couple it was somewhere between love at first sight and slow burn. Which wasn't the best way to write it.
The way everyone deals with the ep 10 conflict was something that came out of nowhere because especially from Patts side he was lashing out in a way that he was only talking about in dialogue with the ex only once he was thinking her for dealing with his anger but I feel like instead of having his character be so completely different from what it was before they should have had him show some of this anger at Tai at some point earlier too even if it was that tiny inkling that should have exploded in ep 10 instead of just doing it out of nowhere all of it in one episode when before he was being too chill too patient like wtf
Also Tai pretty much apologized to him in the end, bruh you just saw your boyfriend kick the shit out of some guy who tried to kiss you and fine it's his fault for lying to him about meeting Fon but Patt could have chosen another way to lash out he could have broken up or something!
After that scene Patt's behavior was pretty much TOXIC and no one loves a hot red flag guy more than me but this show was actually trying to prove that Patt wasn't toxic that he was just drunk/loves Tai too much that's why he was behaving like this, that was his excuse for everything!
So even his own father was clearly telling Tai to get back with Patt like everyone else so it was a lot of normalized toxicity for a story that was supposed to be about progressive love
Despite these issues though and despite me becoming more into Tien and Fon arc after this point and I really like the way they did the soulmate ideas too but for the most part I really enjoyed it all except for the very ending for Patt and Tai but was really happy watching the two idiots Tien and Fon in the last ep was what made the last ep somewhat salvageable.
My personal issue is that love a hot rich red flag guy all you want just don't apologize for the shit you did in reaction to his toxic behavior.
Even if there was a single line towards the end from Patt or Tai that alluded to this this show would be a lot higher rated for me .
