Is this a series made to cure BL addiction?

It is already common enough for BLs to suffer from the problem of character overload, but at least sometimes the part for the main couple is done well or there is enough cuteness and sweetness in the side couples to make us overlook the flaws. In Love Area Part 2, however, the part for the main couple (actually the other parts as well) is botched up so badly that it has got to be the work of some evil genius. It definitely takes talent to be able to screw things up this badly with the material started in Part 1.

I recall Part 1 being quite bearable despite its flaws like random digressions to side stories that lack development. But at least we see in Part 1 the conflict between Valen and Kaitoon at the start and how their relationship changes over time, and the promise of a romance between them at the end. Part 1 seems to be going somewhere. I was hoping that Part 2 would avoid the flaws of Part 1. However, the flaws are accumulated and magnified instead.

In Part 2, there are even more barely related characters; love triangles become squares or some other polygon. The worst part of the story is the "development" of the relationship between Valen and Kaitoon. They become a couple and enjoy some sweet moments, but there really isn't much of a story to speak of here. Perhaps to add spice to the thing that isn't much of a story, the evil genius lurking around decided that the love triangle with Valen, Kaitoon and Non (someone with a crush on Kaitoon) should be turned into some bizarre love polygon. So while Valen is in love with Kaitoon and getting jealous of Non for childish reasons, he inexplicably also gives some girl flowers, behaving like a shy teen with a crush. (Huh?)

But of course that is not enough "conflict" for the evil genius hiding in the production team. There must be a misunderstanding between Valen and Kaitoon that leads to a break-up before the series ends, right? This is predictable fare except that the evil genius makes Valen's behavior totally illogical. Valen sees Kaitoon's group mate (Sean) being a third party in King and Pete's relationship (King is Valen's friend) and somehow assumes that Kaitoon is in cahoots with his group mate to give Pete a chance to cheat on King. (HUH?)

Speaking of King and Pete, Pete's behavior is about as absurd as it can possibly get. First, his jealousy when he sees King with another guy is practically at psychopathic levels, suggesting an unhealthy obsessiveness. Next, his claim that he has suddenly disappeared and left King suddenly (Part 1) because of his struggles with depression is exposed to be bogus. Even by the end of the series, the reason he has simply disappeared is unknown, just like his reasons for suddenly wanting to make up with King again. Yes, he has been in a relationship with another guy during the disappearance, but is this other guy the reason for his disappearance? Couldn't he have simply broken up with King if he had fallen in love with someone else? And if he is such a jerk, why does he seem genuinely sorry for what he has done?

And, trust me, there is more in all the main characters' behaviors in Episode 7 that will leave you stupefied--if you don't fall asleep watching scenes that look like some advertisement for a tour or the work of a travel vlogger. (They are actually visually appealing but not exactly interesting.) I don't have the ability to describe the mess without using a few hundred words more, and I'm just too lazy to do it.

There is also the addition of at least two more love triangles just so that the scenes can jump purposelessly from one love polygon to another and alienate viewers. The introduction of June, Bill and Sonya into the series appears to be devoid of purpose. (And also: more illogical behavior thrown in.) Then there is also a (straight) love triangle involving Valen's sister that gets added in without development or resolution because -- why not? We are trying to make the series as bad as possible, right? And maybe there can even be a Part 3, right?

By Episode 7, it is clear that even if Episode 8 (the final episode) salvages things a little, it cannot make up for the experience of watching Episodes 1 - 7, which is by turns boring and infuriating. Indeed, Episode provides a bit of a closure. I bet the evil genius behind the mess was disappointed that he could not continue having fun. Do Valen and Kaitoon make up? I would love to give a spoiler, but I can't really tell. It is not because we have an open ending. It's just that I can't be sure if the "ending" is just another daydreaming/imagination scene (like Kaitoon and Non's at the end of Episode 7).

It's sad that Part 2 destroys: (i) the King/Pete pairing when there is potential for a much more moving story for them, and (ii) the character development of Valen in Part 1. It's also saddening that things don't end well for Non, who is a likable person and possibly the only sensibly portrayed character of any importance. Maybe Love Area is secretly The Tragedy of Non. While heartbroken King has friends who care (and even a possible new love interest) and June has someone to cry to, our poor Non does not even seem to have a friend around to console him.

Yeah...I shouldn't have watched this season

The first season I gave a 6.5. Now, I don't know why I decided to watch the second season. Maybe I thought that it qould have been better than the first. But it wasn't.

Story-5/10
This story confused the bejesus out of me. To begin with in the first episode, you give a very long recap from the first season. AND you changed Valen and Kaitoon's story progress from last season in the very first episode.

Now Valen and Kaitoon relationship did progressed but then there was an unnecessary issue which annoyed me. And believe it or not, I was actually glad with the final minutes of the final episode...until the last few seconds. That pissed me off A LOT.

And then we got these side characters that were ot really contributing to this series with thier unnecessary drama. I honestly think they were added to give this series the eight episodes that it received. I mean, they really didn't resolve some of the secondary characters issues. Like, the majority of them had crappy endings

I also felt that at some parts it wasn't flowing well, making the series to be a bit choppy and just jumping randomly all over the place.

Oh, yeah! And the continuous changing of hair length on the actor who plays Valen- that annoyed me as well.

Acting/Cast-4/10
With the wack storyline, the actors could not save this series. I'm sorry...they just couldn't.

Music- 7/10
The music ia only the good thing in this whole seires.

Rewatch Valu-1/10
A big fat NO. I will not be watching this series again.

Overall-4.5/10
I give this series a 4.5. I hope that this is it for this series because people in the comments section are talking about a season 3. I personally think that it's not needed.

Team Non (even though I shouldn't be....)

Surprisingly, I was more enraptured in part 2 than part 1. I know, I shocked myself too, but I found myself overwhelming excited to move on to the next episode. I won't lie, however, the first few were kind of tedious. We take a spin back into the first season, for no apparent reason, and we're also introduced to a potential new pairing (literally the duplicate of Valen, Kaitoon, and Non, just in smaller font) that felt very half-assed as we don't see very much of them. There are some inconsistencies and a few bits that can be labeled aggravating for sure, but overall, it was a good watch.

Let's Dive In.

Love Area Part 2 is the continuation of the first. Valen and Kaitoon continue their little quarrel until Valen finally grows some balls and confesses to Kaitoon, with a lovely kiss. They go through their own trials and tribulations (most of those being aggravating) and again, Non is like the sad little puppy nobody pays attention to on adoption day. King and Peat's story is just utterly sad and raw. I think they're why I enjoyed the series so much. We're introduced to a new couple, June, Bill (forgive me if it's actually Win, but I forgot names and lowkey faces, so I'm just gonna go with Bill), and Toy. As I said, the literal duplicate of the main leads in which Toy pines for June but June is so oblivious and in love with Bill that Toy just has to roll with the punches. I didn't care for them all too much, on top of the fact that their story was given very little development or attention. All of this combined into one little 8 episode series was a lot, and yet, so much was left unsaid.

Getting into what I like. Ohm. Period. Ohm blew me away in episode (whatever episode Peat cheats with Jeff's character). The emotions in his voice, his face, his posture, urgh, it was amazing. I found myself sitting there and weeping with him when in the beginning of Part 1, I could've cared less for him or Peat. But I was invested for sure. I liked how they portrayed a love so unhealthy, yet there's something so compelling that they believe getting back together would work. And we see their faults. We see the way Peat is with Ice and how secretive he acts. We see King have a hard time differentiating if what he's feeling for Peat is love or lust at this point. For it all to come tumbling down (and Jeff is *chef's kiss* a bad person, but so good at it). That turning point in his dynamic is when we see him stop caring, and we see that in the way his apartment is covered in filth and the way he loses motivation in doing anything. I think they treated this couple with the most realistic outcome. Yes, there were some nit-picky things, but they really outdid themselves this season. I also like how Ice wasn't used as King's rebound and felt more like a really good friend. A big step from season one when they made me highly uncomfortable with how they were portraying his character. Granted, this could all change if we get a part 3, but as long as King and Ice's relationship isn't explicit or rushed and shown to be slow and patient, then I think at some point I could come to terms with it.

Again, I fucking loved Non. He still was treated dirty, but I think (..?) I'm satisfied with where he is right now. I was at least happy that they kind of sort of gave us a little look into what a relationship between them would look like, but of course, when you look at it for what it truly is, you see that Non is the only one in it, and Kaitoon is just hurting. There were some weird pauses and some awkward staring in some parts that threw me off of the KaitoonNon love train. It just made them feel like strangers, and it's obvious the connection between the actors is not as strong as it is between Kaitoon and Valen. I really hoped for something different this season, but, oh well. We got a very sweet kiss, a cute little vacation, and some really nice Non-caring-for-Kaitoon scenes, so I'm okay. Hopefully if there is a part 3, Non can be given his own love interest who's actually interested in him.

All the intimate scenes are down so nicely. I was scared that they'd be weak, chaste, forced, but they're natural, and you can feel in the way they stare at one another right before they kiss that they wanted it really bad. Valen and Kaitoon for sure came to show out. So lovely, so patient, so intimate, and so enjoyable.

Lastly, the music was superb. I didn't pay any attention to their music in part 1, but in this, I feel like I thrived in it. The ballad during their tough moments, or even their romantic ones added so much more to the scenes. Toy's actor apparently sang one of the songs, and he does an excellent job.

Onto what needed fixing: Kaitoon and Valen's relationship was good until it wasn't. Again, miscommunication and stubborn characters led to the ever-so-tiring breakup. With just an ounce of communication, all the misunderstandings could've been solved. But then again, Kaitoon did nothing wrong..? He was sitting there minding his own while Peat and Jeff's character decided to get rowdy, I don't see how that's his fault, or even why Valen would get so upset at him the way he does. It's very annoying, and you just can't stop but get even more annoyed as it continues on and you shout to your scream, "let him talk," at the top of your lungs. He also showcases some pretty possessive behavior at the beginning of their relationship. Red flag! They're left open-ended, and I think I liked this better than a last-minute redemption arc for Valen or their relationship.

They introduce this potential new pairing for them to just really give us nothing. Not much to talk about on them since I sadly didn't care much for them. I feel sad for Toy who seems to be a fucking angel, and I don't feel like repeating that sadness yet again. I think this is my first encounter of a trans character's relationship actually being portrayed as real and not some silly, maybe a bit stalkerish thing. Applaud for this series for taking it seriously.

The inconsistency with Kaitoon's haircut is distracting and highly confusing. I kept thinking we were seeing flashbacks, but they are really just the unfortunate timing of Kaitoon's actor getting a haircut. Something that can't really be fixed after it happens, but god, was it infuriating.


Ratings:

Story: 8 - In love with King's story which gets the bulk of the scoring. Valen and Kaitoon are good until they aren't. However, I do think their beginning story is very nicely done. I'll take two stars off for the inconsistency, the bad communication, and the poor writing.

Acting: 9 - King's actor did amazing. Kaitoon is right behind him. Most of the cast did a good job. I think Non is honestly the weakest, but it's not so distracting that it's unwatchable. I'll take a star off for that.

Music: 9 - The highest I think I've rated music, but I really loved it. the ballad is so breathtaking, I listen to it on repeat for hours. However, music is sadly not the saving grace for a series, and a part of me feels sad because of it.

Rewatch value: 1 - I might come back to watch some of those very skilled intimate scenes, but other than that, not a chance I'll actually rewatch. definitely going to relisten to the OST for sure!

I do recommend this. I don't usually think sequels are good, but this and IPYTM are exceptions. I see that a lot of people didn't like this as much as I did, which is understandable, but the pure fact that King's actor did such a fantastic job, raises the bar so much for me. Let's hope for a part 3, cause so much was left unsaid.

Probably one of the worst written BLs I've seen

After part 1 ended, I was left with some hope because the story between Kaitoon and Valen was at least going somewhere. If you remember, Valen tried to rob Kaitoon in episode 1 of part 1 to pay some goons money he owed. Then, out of a miracle, Kaitoon ended up working at the restaurant owned by Valen's sister, Nisa, and Valen was forced to work there by her, he met Kaitoon again and eventually started falling for each other. The six episodes of part 1 had some sort of development because the relationship between Valen and Kaitoon started to blossom and the side couple of King and Pete provided some odd moments after arguing a lot at first but, it was going in some direction as well. Pete left King due to an apparent bout of depression and King was feeling like crap and after some episodes he decided to give Pete a chance and were back together when part 1 ended. As I said before, I was left with SOME hope that part 2 will really develop these two couples with the usual clichés introduced in Thai BLs of low budget companies (GagaOOlala airs the show internationally but I doubt they had any influence in the budget of it) like an unexpected ex-girlfriend, or parents trying to sabotage the relationship, or a love triangle. Then came "Love Area 2" and all hope of at least the usual plot twists, went to hell.

This has to be one of the worst written BLs in many many years, and I've seen disasters like "My Tee" with Frank and Drake that had a plot that was simply not plausible or "Love By Chance 2" that had 6 episodes that worked as a "recap" of season 1 only to compensate for Saint's absence. "Love Area 2" takes these two series and raises the stakes of poor writing by providing us with confusing scenarios, unneeded actors in useless scenes, choppy editing and an ending that makes me fear there could be a part 3 in the works.

I'll summarize part 2 with a WTF! and here is why:

1. Kaitoon is one of the most mature (sometimes, as he does have a few childish moments as well) characters I've seen in a Thai BL as he tries to deal with the volatile Valen and his never ending moody behavior through 8 pain-inducing episodes. Valen can be warm and caring like when they take the day off at the beach or when he buys Kaitoon new tennis shoes or dries his hair with a towel. But, Valen can be a mean bitchy whining immature baby like when he thinks Kaitoon somehow is involved in the Pete affair with Sean and decides not to listen to Kaitoon, throw a tantrum and end their relationship and then start flirting with a girl when he sees Non and Kaitoon together. I don't know what the writer and the director were thinking but they over-complicated the relationship by having so many messed up plots around them which, sadly, weren't properly done and ended up with a writing mess.

2. King and Pete are polar opposites as King acts like the suffering martyr through all of part 2 as Pete is cheating on him and lying about his depression only for him to reveal that he already knows about the depression part but didn't say anything and kept trying to live like a happy couple. I mean, you know the guy lied about being depressed and still tried to be together? And, we actually never know the REAL reason for Pete to leave in part 1, come back, try to win King again, and cheat... was it his relationship with Sean? was it something else? Pete, on the other hand, is just a manipulative and borderline sociopath who tries to control King by making him not talk to Ice, by taking away the puppy both Ice and King were taking care of, by getting angry if King doesn't do what he wants, etc.

3. Non is simply such a bland character, he likes Kaitoon but always has bad timing and things never really go his way... and Kaitoon sends him to the "friend-zone" in episode 8. That's it... he never fights for Kaitoon, we never see if he has other friends, family, nothing, just plain boring and dull scenes when he was in them... and even his facial expressions barely changed during scenes.

4. The other characters don't provide much either. Nisa tries to make one of his employees play the role of her boyfriend (what??) when Nisa and Valen's father visit the restaurant but nothing develops there. She also knows that Valen likes Kaitoon but barely interferes and when she does, in episodes 7 and 8, is to scold Valen and tell him to fix things with Kaitoon, but no more advice, no nothing. Sean suddenly appears as Kaitoon's classmate and even more suddenly, he appears as the one having sex with Pete. That triangle (or square if you count Ice) made no sense because there was not even a hint that he was involved with Pete until episodes 6-8 and then in the end, he tells Pete he still loves him but he is going abroad (another very used Thai strategy when having a sad/bad ending) and that's the end of that fling. Ice clearly likes King but being a junior to King and Pete, he normally doesn't voice his opinions that much and is almost as passive as Non is with Kaitoon until episode 8 when he takes some initiative to help King get out of his own depression (this one real) of Pete cheating on him... but again nothing develops between them. And the Bill, June and Sonya triangle provided nothing useful for the story as they barely interact with the lead characters or are connected to them in any way outside of all being university students.

5. The plot makes no sense. Valen/Kaitoon become Valen/Kaitoon/Non/Panggo (the girl Valen flirts with in the final 2 episodes). King/Pete become King/Pete/Ice/Sean and they add the other triangle mentioned above. But none of the love triangle/squares is fully or correctly developed because the lead one is created due to Valen's immaturity, Kaitoon's over suffering, Non's one-way love of Kaitoon and Panggo just being a bystander of Valen's insanely childish behavior.
King is lying to himself about having a good relationship with Pete as he knows he is lying but plays along, Pete is just cheating and lying without a clearly apparent reason, Ice likes King but never gathers the courage to advance their relationship, and Sean magically appears as Pete's cheating partner. Some of the side characters don't have many lines but we see one of them having a key to King's apartment and using it just to find evidence of Pete's lies... I mean, really? where did that brilliant idea came from in episode 6 of part 2 when you did nothing in all of part 1 and most of this part?

6. Acting also was a problem as Gun (playing Valen) had some issues delivering some emotions to some scenes and Pak (playing Kaitoon) sometimes tried too hard to look like the suffering type. Ohm (playing King) tends to exaggerate his dramatic scenes a bit too much, Tod (playing Pete) missed some chances to really convince me about his acting, especially in the scenes when he had to apologize... he was oddly decent in the psychopath/sociopath/obsessive guy parts which I found interesting. Even Jeff Satur (playing Sean) looked oddly bad in this series after seeing some decent acting from him in "Ingredients" with a crazy look in some scenes, which I hope was due to a directing issue rather than him being a bad actor. Chemistry was not 100% there as Gun and Pak and Ohm and Tod sometimes felt a bit uncomfortable in dramatic scenes, a bit awkward in love scenes and never really felt like they had a connection like other BL couples seem to have.

7. The final episode was a mess as well as all the couples/triangles/squares end up having nothing but sad endings (and I'm not even including the useless June/Bill attempt... Pete leaves King for good (or so he says), Sean leaves Pete to study abroad, Ice approaches King but nothing interesting happens in the 33-minute final episode as they clean King's apartment and then eat lunch together the next day when Pete appears to say goodbye. Kaitoon tells Non that they can only be friends, Non sighs, tells Valen there is nothing going on with him and Kaitoon and then just walks away and later rejects Kaitoon's offer to have lunch together. Valen tries to court Panggo but can't stop thinking about Kaitoon and then both finally meet in the same dark park it all starting back in part 1. They talk, Valen accepts he is a horrible human being but immediately wants to go back to where they were before he threw a childish tantrum... Kaitoon tells him that he can't do it now as he is hurt by Valen's attitude but leaves the door open for a future together... they say goodbye, walk away and during the end credits they run like kids to embrace, which left me more confused... all of Kaitoon's speech about being hurt and needing time to think things ends up being wasted by them hugging like that in the end.

Which is why I fear they could bring a third season of this writing wreck... let's hope "love" will no longer be available in this "area" and this series ends here and becomes a distant memory of a poorly executed BL.

I don’t know what this show wants to be and neither does it

Love Area started out as Thailand tackles love triangles BL pulp style, but by season two lockdown had changed everything. Valen & Kaitoon dropped some great kisses but traded off crazy hair and makeup in a scene-by-scene whiplash that was clearly pickups done months after lockdown, and the second lead vanished. It was... surreal. Side dishes jumped up screen time but tackled mental health... badly. A fantastic new queer side character was randomly introduced, June, who was the best thing to happen to BL linguistics in 2022 but had nothing to do with the rest of the cast, show, or plot.

I’m not saying the kisses are worth suffering through this show, but almost. And if you are intersted in the Thai language June is something pretty darn special. But honestly? What a profoundly big mess yet simultaneously dull show.

In conclusion? Some very good chemistry in a few episodes and June was a GREAT character. BUT. Look, it wasn't as bad as Bite Me, but it wasn’t actually good, either. In the end, I didn’t know what I was watching, and neither did it.

I just love Kaitoon

I am only interested in KaitoonxValenxNon story. I am frustrated at what happened in the last episode. But my sympathy goes to Kaitoon, he's a victinm of circumstances, I felt sorry for his continuous misfortunes , it feels like the director and writer had some hidden bitterness for Kaitoon. 🥲🥲.
Though Kaitoon has a hard time expressing himself or how to keep his relationship with Valen steady, I blame it to his inexperience on how to be properly loved as he was an orphan whom from early years already taking care of his own. I love Kaitoon's personality and character, there's a lot of flaws, he's naive, awkwardly pleasant, have time management issue and thirsty for affection, but he's also industrious, hardworking, empathic and caring. He's not perfect but maybe I love the broken ones.

I don't understand the writers mindset

Honestly this has been a utter stressful letdown for me to watch compared to the first one. I keep forcing myself to hold out to the end. But i hate myself more and more with each episode i waist my time watching due to the all over thr place story. Plus the fact that the main leads could have truely been taken in a better derection than this. We have one episode left and the preview if it turns out like the preview even hints to. I think i may have to swear off bl dramas for a long time. Cause this drama was just truly a all over the place drama.

Not As Good as the first one ...

This drama was not as good as the first one, even though the characters are the same, they just felt really stiff with each other.

Now Valen and Kaitoon relationship did progressed but then there was an unnecessary issue which annoyed me. And believe it or not, I was actually glad with the final minutes of the final episode...until the last few seconds. That pissed me off A LOT. This has to be one of the worst written BLs in many many years, and I've seen disasters.

I am going to go into a breakdown of revisit the first one, cuz second season was just a mess of nothing really, the characters for me had not developed at all and seem to carry the same issues they from the first one. The final episode was a mess as well as all the couples/triangles/squares end up having nothing but sad endings Honestly this has been a utter stressful letdown for me to watch compared to the first one. I keep forcing myself to hold out to the end. But i hate myself more and more with each episode i waist my time watching due to the all over the place story. Plus the fact that the main leads could have truly been taken in a better direction than this. We have one episode left and the preview if it turns out like the preview even hints to. I think i may have to swear off bl dramas for a long time. Cause this drama was just truly a all over the place drama.

I seriously hope there will be 3rd season, cuz I don't think it could get any worse this!!!

Awful

I have seen my fair share of bad sequels but this one was one of the worst. I rather liked the first one and was looking forward to the continuation of the main characters relationship. But it simply turned out to be nothing like the first one. It was as if they had never seen each other or were not sure that they liked each other. What? A relationship was budding in the first series but this one was barely viable before it broke apart like a gust on wind would blow out a candle. The side stories were just as atrocious. This appeared as directionless as you can get. So unfortunate.

Alright Alright Alright

We all know S2 in BL World is risky business because it only goes 2 ways: Terrible or Tremendous. Awkwardly, I found this S2 stuck right in the middle and not too bad. Definitely not something I'd re-watch or recommend but worth the watch (following S1 of course). I think I liked this season more lol There were some sloth slow moments and some emotional roller coaster moments to give it a pretty balanced averageness. Visuals were pretty good and I think the last episode was the best (NO not because it was finally over) but because honestly, I feel everything ended in a pretty realistic and logical way that you can't really argue with.
Enjoy...
P.S. Close call, the ending gave me a twitch and I almost threw my computer LMAO

I know there is one last episode to be aired before this ends, but I don't think it will change my mind about the series.

Love area 2 picks up where the last one left off, and while it is a lovely place to start, they really didn't improve the story any. To me it just fell into a safe place where the romance was there, hot an steamy, but most of the melodrama was not needed for the plot to grow.

The side story of King was probably the best part of this chapter, while he didn't get much screen time, when he did get time. He was the best thingy since pink milk. His acting skills brought the character to life, while King's story exemplified the hard truth about some love-lives. It was masterful to watch his story unfold. His friends also stole the show, because they went the full nine yards for him. That literally was the best thing about season 2.
Non deserved sooooo much better than what he got. While I understood where he stood in everyone's lives. He was such an amazing person to Kaitoon and while it may have been because of some romantic feelings for him... Kaitoon literally never was nice to him. Who would setup such a sweet person soo many times. Not to mention even after all the horid treatment, Non was still an amazing person to him. I mean hats off to you sir, you got a heart of gold. You deserve better.

Valen didn't exactly change for the better, which was disappointing. While he was very sweet and kind, it seemed more "means to an end" than a "I really love you." No one was more stubborn and ridiculous with his logic than him. which upset me greatly, I mean come now nah man, ask a question once in a while. You don't always have to be so controlling, that isn't cute.

Watch this only for the main couple( EDITED)

There is one more episode till the end, but here is my opinion.
This part was totally different from the first one. Story-wise was here and there but you'll get confused when you start watching this part, so I recommend YOU to go back and watch the first one, just so you can have an idea what is what.
This part was only worth watching just for the main couple, witch is honestly my favourite for the last few months.
The side couple are all fine in their own way, but nothing special.
Many scenes are skippable. And definitely you'll notice the weird way of filming this drama, I have no idea why they did not stick with the original idea and continue from where it stopped.
First episode is a FULL SKIP
Second is a SKIP TOO
Start watching from the third episode and you'll be just fine.

---------------------EDIT------------------------
Sometimes I wonder, do I really support toxic relationships or the actors are just that good at what they are doing?
The answer is NO for both. Actually really enjoyed the "growth" of the main couple, but it got annoying the last few episodes.
The toxic part is just boring at this point, and the no communication trope is getting old. I understand that there are misunderstandings between the couples, but c'mon,20+ years old and still don't know that the key to a relationship is actually the communication beside all the cute and fluffy moments. I don't blame the actors, the writing sucks.
At this point I really don't see why you need to watch this show. If you are looking for cute actors, you got that, the story is boring, many dramas are having the same concept so nothing new, the writing is very bad, the way its filmed is honestly the some of the worst I've seen.
You can live without this drama. Don't waste your time watching this shit.
