Why do we still have child-like leads?
Three completely different dudes randomly at the same time decided to pursue a vanilla child-like lead, after simping from him without him knowing for months/years. What even?
Yoo Do Ha is honestly poorly written. There is a massive difference between being innocent/shy and being child-like. I have no idea why some writers are obsessed with making leads (be it male leads in BLs or female leads in romance dramas) act so much like a clueless toddlers with empty big eyes stare and not 0.000000001% of assertiveness in behavior. It just makes the drama unrealistic.
I am sure there are men who like this type of a partner - there is a type for everyone. But I also refuse to believe there are so many people into this type of behavior to create a love square out of it.
Not that the suitors were any better. All 3 were frustrating for just "keeping their crush a secret" and never doing shit to get Do Ha. Why the stalker behavior?
Not that the drama was tragically bad, but it was also not really good. The first half was better, but only because we did not yet know how shallow all the characters and the plot was - I was still excited to find out more. There was no “more”.
Acting wise we had some good, decent and bad examples. Cha Se Jin easily delivered the best performance. Both Cha Yu Hyun and Lee Do Han were decent in the roles, but Jung Su Bin - my guy for sure has better presence and financial expressions on stage. Maybe the issue was the writing of Do Ha, but the whole characters felt extremely… empty.
Overall, kind of waste of time, kind of decent for a background watch. I wanted to give it 6.5, but the last two episodes had too many weird, random and dumb moments for me.
