Disappointing storyline

I don’t know how to start this, honestly.
I was super excited when I heard Rowon and boah would be the main leads for this drama and thus I had quite high expectations.

When the teaser started to release, I thought it might be a bit cliche but I thought, let’s wait until it’s out, and yeah, it’s cliche.
The storyline is basically solely focused on the fantasy aspect that we have seen plenty of times before, and it’s nothing new.
The only interesting part about this was the fantasy storyline; besides that, the romance and characters were barely interesting

I didn’t see a point in it being 16 episodes instead of 12 cause the only thing the drama had going for it was the fantasy aspect, and that was it.
The overall story was okay, but I wouldn’t rewatch it, 'cause nothing interested me enough to keep watching.
The romance was messy, I guess an attempt at making some drama in the hope that it would keep the viewers interested, but instead just made me question it.

The characters were annoying, the most annoying characters I have ever watched in a kdrama so far
The female lead was just annoying and because of the writing, I hated her every time she was on screen. I couldn’t even focus cause the writing of her character made me dislike her so much, and I can say that for the male lead as well. Plus, her colleagues are so annoying that I wanted to slap them and her team leader.

One thing I have to say is that the relationship between these characters really had a lot of inconsistency. I mean, they go from hating her to being friends? And the way they did that is just so bad; there were so many inconsistencies.

Overall, this drama was just not my cup of tea, which was a shame cause I really was excited for a rowon and boah pairing, but the writing ruined it.I hope that they would get cast together again in another better drama, and this whole enemies-to-lovers wasn’t even enemies-to-lovers; it was just badly done.
