In the doghouse: A howling mess of cringe
Neither of the main characters are likable. Duang is borderline stalkerish and his "golden retriever" energy crosses into actual dog behavior (the sniffing? seriously?). TeeTee overacts the cute shtick so hard it gets annoying by episode 2. He does literally 100% of the work in the relationship, basically worshipping a guy who gives nothing back.
On the flip side, Qin is a total jerk. The script tries to excuse his awful behavior with some vague childhood trauma, but it’s a flimsy excuse that gets magically resolved in less than 10 minutes near the end. Por looks bored, sleepy, or completely zoned out in every single scene. I think his facial muscles moved maybe a dozen times the entire series. Because of this, the leads have absolutely zero chemistry.
The writing is just lazy. Instead of actual character growth, we get dragged-out, boring student life filler, deeply cringy dog sound effects, and a totally pointless side couple that gets zero screen time. They couldn’t even blend the comedy and drama right, so the tone is a complete mess. Plus, the blatant in-your-face ads (like that random, unnecessary trip to Japan) were super annoying.
It’s just a cringe-fest disguised as fluff. Save your time and skip it.
