I dropped the show almost reluctantly at episode 7 but i had no choice, i was bored.
While the show had its charm, it ultimately couldn't hold my attention. The handsome male lead and surprisingly realistic gym scenes were definite highlights—it’s rare to see fitness depicted with this much authenticity in a rom-com setting. The show balanced hilarious, over-the-top humour with heartfelt moments in the beginning, and when it clicked, it clicked.
However, that spark wasn’t consistent. The tone started to feel forced, and what initially felt like conscious exaggeration for comedic effect eventually became repetitive and boring. The female lead, despite being written as quirky and passionate, just didn’t land emotionally for me—something about her lacked appeal or depth. It felt like the story was trying to do a lot without fully committing to any of its threads.
Overall, it was a fun concept with a strong start, but to me it was a missed opportunity in execution. With tighter writing and more balanced character dynamics, this could have been a standout.
