Great production quality and romance... but the story? it's a no for me.

This show has been on my list for well over a year, and it was very disappointing to see how it all went down. I was super excited to finally see a drama moving quickly (leads together within the first 10 or so eps!) but that was soon met with utter boredom and frustration as the episodes dragged on.

Our leads did excellent regarding their scenes together and their chemistry, and a big shout out to Song Wei Long for doing such a great job at such a young age! That did make the drama a bit more tolerable later on. Additionally, there were so many well known actors and actresses that had roles in this drama, which made it all the more enjoyable when they came on screen.

But here's where everything seemed to go wrong in my view. In typical c-dramaland, our Second Lead and Female Lead tend to never *officially* be together. This drama decided to change that narrative. Our smart, sophisticated FL spent 1/2 of the drama dating one lead, and 1/2 the drama with the other - which was ridiculous and frustrating because she clearly never liked the second Male Lead. I thought her character was not as selfish as that. It was clear that the ML and FL still were not over each other, and to make matters worse it was clear she wasn't happy with the Second ML either. That was very off putting, and I ended up skipping most of their screen time in the second half.

I did appreciate the humorous aspect to it, and those few laughs in the beginning (and throughout) really helped me keep watching. Also, the second couple was very cute, and so was the third. So I stayed for them. Overall, the only thing that brought the drama down in terms of its rating was the storyline. Everything else - from the sets to the costumes to makeup even - was flawless and well done.

This is definitely something for viewers who don't mind having 2 male leads (not a ML and a 2nd ML), and who don't mind seeing the FL visibly uncomfortable with who's she's dating for nearly 20 episodes.
