The saving grace of this show was the side characters, or who I'd thought would be the side characters at first. The drama seems to acknowledge the fact the main couple had absolutely no chemistry and dedicated the last few episodes of the show to its best couple: tutor and fighter.

I gave the main couple a try, I really did. They started off as what must have been an attempt at an enemies to lovers, except it was one-sided and the supposed hate kinda fell off from one episode to another. The show then started a series of convoluted attempts to have them interact that didn't really feel very genuine and at some point I even forgot what their goal was in the first place. They don't even seem to have any individual personalities, much less any chemistry together.

The side couple though, oh boy. Now THAT was an enemies to lovers. If the show was only this couple I'd give it a 10/10 because nothing about them was forced. Unfortunately since this drama involved two couples, they were a bit rushed towards the end but nevertheless the process of their hatred evolving into them tolerating each other to them liking each other's presence to friendship to LOVE was SO satisfying. Not to mention they're their own people outside of their relationship which is a big plus.

(Thank you thai dramas for your exquisite kiss scenes. I love you thai dramas. Thank you for doing god's work.)

If anyone were to pick up this drama I'd recommend skipping the scenes involving the main couple if you don't like them after episode 3 but that also might just be me.
