The most insufferable love triangle.
K-drama rom/com writers should be banned from using love triangles in their stories for a few years. The love triangle in this show is so exhausting, insufferable, and time-consuming that it overshadows any positive aspects the show might have had.
Our Universe had everything it needed from the very first episode to become a decent show. A young ML and FL who, unfortunately, become the guardians of their nephew. She is looking for work, he finds a job with a famous photographer, and somehow all three end up living together under one roof. That’s it! If the story had stopped right here and just focused on these characters, the kid, and their working circumstances, things would have turned out for the best.
Instead, a second male lead and a parent is shortly introduced to pivot the show off a cliff. With these two new awful characters, the show forgot why viewers tuned in the first place. The pushiest love triangle I’ve seen recently, to the point you wouldn’t be mistaken if you thought 2nd ML was the main lead of the entire show. Then this terrible parent conveniently shows up, bringing even more problems. What a rat. No one watching this show came for this badly written melodrama. Everyone online is asking if we can return to the family storyline with no hope in site for five excruciating episodes. Big oof.
