Up to episode 11 -

I, like most of us, had no expectations for this. The elephant in the room is the bad subbing, but hopefully it gets properly subbed really soon. However… it's good. Like seriously good.

It's not reinventing the wheel, but it's taking all the good and bad parts of romcoms and mixing them together in a funny, cute and chemistry-filled hotpot of pure goodness. Furthermore, thus far misunderstandings aren't driving the plot, and it's not depending solely on plot twists to build suspense or character arcs, which makes for a cleaner and more enjoyable watching experience.

The main leads are solid, believable and lovable characters. ML isn't a block of stone that suddenly grows a personality after meeting FL. FL isn't ditzy and naive, and doesn't always need the ML to rescue her. And the smooth chemistry between the characters and the actors playing them is awesome.

The second and third couples are frankly just as interesting to watch. I honestly adore how FL's best friend, the SFL, stands up for her (because many of these drama besties are very questionable) and has a personality and obviously sense of self, rather than just existing to be the FL's cheerleader. I would love more scenes with the second couple that focuses on them (episode 8 answered my prayers), though the way they are written still alludes to them focusing on their relationship, but also aware that they need to focus less on FL&ML.

Can see the TFL developing feelings for TML, so hopefully we won't have to wait long for them to figure themselves out.

Thus far, there is only one character that may get seriously annoying, but hopefully (fingers crossed) they won't ruin the story by making him a big obstacle. (he's been gone for the last few episodes, so hopefully he stays gone).

Looking forward to the next ½ of the show.
