Script completely changed, scenes cut off and no respect for the actors and fans.
So, where should I begin?
I suppose we all know by now that, during the final episode's screening, Chod (chief executive officer of change2561) told before hundreds of fans that SHE basically changed the script how she wanted (her words were "If we talk about the script, it's an original that I made myself, I can do whatever I want with it. I can make the villain as strong as I want or the hero as weak as I want") alas why this season sucked and some characters' choices and behavior didn't make sense (example Alan). You can understand what type of woman manages this company.
Second important point: the infamous AlanJeff bathtub scene. This scene was and still is one of the most anticipated, showed in the trailer and included in the photobook, many fans bought the tickets for the final episode just to watch it in the theater. Now, you can imagine the disappointment when this scene wasn't shown, because it was decided to cut it off completely from the episode.
It's not the first time they cut scenes off of other couple, but this in particular it's a scam because it was promoted in many occasions and during interviews (that can be found on yt). People pay a subscription to watch a determined content, and when this content cannot be watched in its entirety, it's not fair towards people who spend their money; then we can talk about the complete lack of respect towards their actors and fans. The bathtub scene was filmed for more than three hours, until SailubPon were sore (because did you see how small was the bathtub?) and they were also naked: this tells you how much they worked hard and dedicated they were in giving us, fans, something to be proud of and to look forward to, but to Change matters only the money. Yesterday, episode 13's reaction was uploaded, and we know for a fact that the cast react to it way before the episode it's uploaded on iQIYI or yt. The entire cast knew about the bathtub scene, and when I tell you the faces they made when they saw it was cut off completely, Sailub and Pon were devastated, their smiles faded, they were heartbroken. The company didn't even inform them of the cut beforehand, instead it decided to do this vile thing.
It's been five days and Change hasn't given yet an explanation, answers or most importantly apologised to Sailub and Pon. Change treated them as tools basically, it used them to make and lure fans to spend money for something that, in the end, wasn't shown.
Anyway, I apologize for the rant, but I dislike injustice and unfairness.
To conclude, I feel sorry for the actors that had to read and act a script that wasn't how it was supposed to be, they are not to blame. The only thing that cheers me up is that they had a great time together.
