Focused on the wrong things

This is my first republican era short drama. I feel like this drama had the potential to be pretty good. But it kind of flopped…

Story:
Pros:
-the only sensible character is the fl. I have no issue with her. The woman was just trying to do her job as a tutor
-the kid who gets tutored is cute and hilarious

Cons:
ML:
-this guy is all over the place (in a bad way)
-he had love at first sight with the fl. Heck, he thought she was a prostitute when they first met 🤦‍♀️
-extremely violent in the first few ep
-overly flirty
-but we soon learn his awkward cute side
-every issue in this drama always seems to come down to him.
-I hate how he used the fl to get this crazy 2fl to get away from him.
-throughout the whole drama, whenever the fl would set boundaries, he would make it his business to break them (which is so damn toxic, ew)

-this drama has a few strong points. The chemistry between leads and the kid. But instead of focusing on those, they focused on the 2fl and the 2ml (who aren’t the 2cp, they are both just trying to get a jab at the ml)
-we had a total of 4 kiss scenes. One was when the fl was drunk. Another when the ml was dreaming. Another when they actually got together. And the last was when “all was good in the world” aka the ending
-mind you, they got together at ep21 only to breakup and other shenanigans. But yes, they do get married and have their happily ever after and whatever
-but the lack of screen time for the leads and the kid actually is the downfall for this drama. It wasted so much of my time. I watched a lot on 1.25-1.75 speed, mostly at the ending eps

Acting/Cast:
-gorgeous ml
-innocent looking fl
-cute kid
-pretty good romantic chemistry, but even better kiss scenes

-sets were boring and repetitive
-coats were nice

Music:
-oh God, the background music was… it was sooo overdramatic. It was funny at first but then it kind of lowered the quality of the whole drama
-the ost itself is nothing interesting

Rewatch:
-no
-maybe just the scenes with the leads having chemistry through YouTube shorts

Overall:
-I didn’t drop this!
-ml is gorgeous, so just seeing him on screen is satisfying
-fl was a nice character

-really don’t recommend. Definitely a waste of time
