A Lot of Potential, but Too Much Cringe
Secondhand embarrassment was probably what I felt the most while watching this series. There were scenes I had to fast-forward through because the embarrassment was so intense that it actually became physically painful. I can imagine it must have been difficult even for the actors themselves to deliver some of those lines.
What motivated me the most to watch this series was the fact that the main character is completely head over heels in love. I really like characters like that, but they need to learn from *Peach and Me* how to write a character who is in love without making him so weird or over-the-top.
A lot of the scenes involving the supporting characters seemed to have been extended in an attempt to create comedic moments, but, to me, they ended up being just bad and tiring. Overall, I liked the characters and I think the series had potential, but they could have been developed much better. Most importantly, some scenes could have been much less silly.
Maybe I'm just being biased, but I also think the two leads still need to improve their acting. I didn't really like them here, and I also wasn't a big fan of their acting in *Love in the Air*.
I won't be hypocritical and say that everything was bad, because it wasn't. There were moments when I genuinely found the series funny, and there were also some really good scenes. I especially want to highlight the scene in episode 9 where the two friends talk and open up to each other. I thought it was such a cute scene, especially when they both started crying.
After all these criticisms, I also have to say that I loved seeing Cooheart playing a character with a personality different from the kind of characters he usually plays. And, finally, I have to mention the opening song, which I absolutely loved.
