The chemistry is off the charts but the story left much to desire

Honestly, I was really enjoying the first half of this drama. I loved the flirting stage and the chemistry of the two main leads was really off the charts. However, the back and forth regarding getting together was annoying and I feel like it dragged there. There were all these misunderstandings, and if they just communicated, it would've been solved. Then once it got into the second half of the drama, I found that I was slowly losing interest in the drama as a whole. I would've liked to see more of a honeymoon stage between the couple, but maybe because the whole getting together portion took too long, it just gave them trial after trial. I get that they're supposed to have all these problems, but it was starting to get old. And again, communication is just non-existent and the main leads kept holding back their troubles from one another. So even though I loved the hot and steamy kisses and the fire chemistry between the two, there is only so far that the chemistry can take you. I started 2x-ing the last 5 episodes of the drama just to finally be done with it. It was quite disappointing because I feel like they had such a good foundation to create a drama that had both an amazing, hot couple and a substantiated story. But instead, we got a useless secondary couple that dragged on way too long that I really didn't care for in the end and a seemingly-strong female main lead who ended up always needing to be saved by her knight in shining armor. I really thought that our princess would've been a lot more bad ass, but she was a let-down. The whole Ashers reveal was also anti-climatic and again, they waited way too long to reconnect those dots from the first episode. On top of that, whatever happened to her flashbacks to that accident that, I'm assuming, her dad was in. She had a pretty emotional reaction to those flashbacks but they never addressed it for the rest of the drama.
Overall, if you want really strong chemistry between the leads, and you really won't look too deep into the story, this is a drama for you. Otherwise, I would say pass on this one. I was quite disappointed honestly. I was so excited to watch it only for it to be a bit disconnected and just a let-down. If you made it this far, thanks for reading, and bye for now!
