I’m officially done with this drama. Tapped out. Clocked out. Logged off. The first few episodes? Insane—in a good way! I was hooked. SYM had my sympathy too—she read the novel, saw the original SYM’s fate, and did what any self-aware queen would do: run from NH like her life depended on it (because it kinda did).

But as the episodes went on… oof. I kept thinking, “Surely SYM will grow after all this truth starts raining down on her,” but no. It’s like the truth was the rain, and SYM brought an emotional umbrella and noise-cancelling headphones. Girl wants an explanation from NH, but the second he opens his mouth, she’s like, “Shhh.” Ma’am??? You asked!!

And don’t even get me started on the logic—she supposedly hates NH but can’t recognize LSL’s voice or eyes? We’re not in a Scooby-Doo mystery; it’s literally the same guy. I kept watching, hoping something would click for her. It didn’t. What did click was my “exit drama” button.

Honestly, I only stayed this long because I was invested in SGH and SYT. Their chemistry was doing more for me than the main couple. Sorry not sorry. I love LYN and LYT, but this drama just wasn’t it. I know some folks will say “it gets better,” but I can’t keep watching out of hope and caffeine.

Anyway, no hate—just my opinion. If you love it, I love that for you 💅
