What Happened to the Plot?

From the mock trailer of this, I was SUPER excited to see GMM try out a sugar baby romance with EmiBonnie. Unfortunately, this one really missed the mark. While Emi and Bonnie did great in the roles, it felt like they never committed to the sugar baby plot in the first place, and fully abandoned it very quickly. From that point, it felt like every conflict was pointless, or had been done in a million other shows.

Chan (Emi) is a rich hotel owner, and Key (Bonnie) got a job performing in the hotel restaurant. Key is determined to get close to Chan after their one night stand. Since it seems Chan isn't looking for a girlfriend, Key decides to pursue her as her sugar baby, despite being in no need of money.

If you're going to give me a sugar baby plot, it NEEDS to be a real one. What was the point if Key wasn't in need of money? This show would have only made sense if Key was purposely pursuing Chan because she needed the money, and then falls in love with her later, giving us the conflict of "oh does she love me or my money" etc etc. Instead, they came up with a plot that makes so little sense it's baffling. Then, I was excited about the whole ex girlfriend coming back into the picture, but that felt half baked too! I don't know what happened here with the writing, but I hope EmiBonnie get a show with a better thought out plot next time...
