I was really excited for the trailer and the show, but it didn't show much of the plot development or enemies to lovers scenes, so I wasn't really drawn by the plot of the show. Anyways, I'll wait for the actual show to judge the plot then. I hope the plot is fleshed out better in the show.
Binged the whole show in a day. It was fun to watch and honestly, would've made for a good 12 episode full-length series. Yes, it's cliche and yes, it's overplayed tropes, but we see them in other dramas all the time. I liked the concept, wish it was longer and well fleshed out. Anyways, I think it was a solid 7.5/10. The Ost was a full 11/10 tho, that shit got me so excited for each episode.
Also, the side characters were HILARIOUS, the dad can go fuck off.
I had really low expectations after reading all the negative reviews here, but honestly, this show is so fun?? First of all, let's talk about that AMAZING opening theme song. I'm obsessed! So far, I'm 4 episodes in and it's just a fun show. Yes, it has a toxic male lead but we've seen many of them in k-dramas that he doesn't phase me. I'm not gonna take it super seriously since it's just a trope at this point, so whatever. Green looks so sophisticated and love his character so far. The acting is great and production looks great as well. Of course, my opinion can change as I watch more episodes but so far, I'm loving it.
This was such a sweet, cute, and heartwarming series! All the couples were cute (tho Toy was a bit annoying at some part, but could be overlooked), and even the side characters were loveable. I liked that they discussed important issues like overcoming class differences, and being open when it comes to love. Overall, I highly recommend for a light hearted, cute show.
Also, I was pleasantly surprised at how different Best and Fame's characters were from "My Dream". Totally didn't recognize Best at first, and I mean that in a good way. Definitely an upgrade from My Dream.
I gave this show a 9/10 because yes it has its shortcomings in some ways, it deserves to be given more attention and love. The cast did a great job. Please give this a chance!
Here's how I wish the show actually went: -Kuea's family is going bankrupt so they ask Lian's family for help. Their solution is arranged marriage for easier transfer of assets. They agree to divorce after the issue is settled because the parents don't actually approve bc of their traditional views, etc. -They are put in this arranged engagement but they both don't like eachother. Then slowly, as they get to know eachother and live together, they start to discover each other's secrets (Kuea being Kirin, Lian being a soft, idk just anything), and they start falling in love. -In the end, they both actually want to get married instead of getting a divorce, but the parents are against it and they work together to get over this conflict.
Personally, I would've enjoyed that more. We would get more drama and an actual conflict to resolve rather than miscommunication taking over the entire show... oh, and my fave enemies to lovers trope hehe
The acting, production, and quality is AMAZING. The last scene and Zee's expression when he turned around to look at his dad, oscar worthy. My heart BROKE. But the script itself is shit af and here's why: -They keep dragging the same damn conflict throughtout most of the show -Everyone lying to eachother and not communicating is getting annoying, and is overdone in this show. -A public proposal infront of all these old people Kuea dont even know, giving him so much anxiety is such a terrible idea, and way to take the spotlight from the dad lmao -Yi-Diao dad conflict/back story is still confusing af and I'm over their couple -Nuea-Syn kiss was so nice but again, wish it was a private moment. Having the friends right there took me out of the moment tbh.
I saw everyone raving about this show so gave it a chance, and I can see why. Absolutely wonderful. I liked some sense of realism in the way it was filmed/directed. I do wish Daun shared more about himself with Siwon because it would explain lot. Anyways, I will definitely rewatch for the cute scenes. The actors did a great job! Oh, and the implied relationship between the sister and Yunjeong was cute but I wish we got more of them! They were so cute. More GLs pls!!
It's just a cute, feel-good BL web drama... I don't think I was expecting anything more personally so it doesn't disappoint overall.. yes the editing is wonky and needs improvement but the couple makes up for it with their cuteness.
If you keep watching for a few more episodes, you will see their acting and chemistry are evolved and improved…
i agree! I honestly can't remember ep 1 anymore bc so much happened since but definitely give it another chance if you have the time. It's a good story
Also, the side characters were HILARIOUS, the dad can go fuck off.
