this will forever be one of my favs. does it have its flaws? yes definitely. (the car scene with qiu ying and zhao yang will never ever sit right with me).
but something i also love abt this show is that the story portrayed two people trying to achieve their dreams and did it pretty well for a chinese e-sports themed rom com (trust me check the others ones out this will at least come in 2nd place, go go squid, yes ik her outfits but please it was a good one). i really like how the character arcs of all everyone is explored at least to a certain extent. the cliches, the over the top evil villain, and ofc the 'valuation' of a woman being her vulnerability to public perception will not sit well with everyone, but this is a 2018 cdrama so yk.
i still love that this show gets this much discourse though, love to see the good and the bad, okay i have rambled on for long enough byee
🤣 I know where you are coming from. I guess the director is to be blamed too. I still like it tho. Despite…
haha it has its own charm ig, i still enjoyed amnse sooo much even w the over the top acting. but also good acting is just the cherry on top for a show (seriously recommended seducing draka palma, rabin and angela and the entire cast are doing a great job). also i am indian so ik a thing or two abt bad soap opera acting haha (i dont recommend hindi serials guys)
i like this show, but the one thing that bothers me is seo myeong ju always being one step ahead even when it doesnt make sense. like im just not satisfied w the consequence
