This is a show that started off strong enough, the fake dating trope was fascinating, there was a certain sweet chemistry between the leads. But as it went on, it was increasingly obvious that there is no substance, no depth, no plot to this series but glamor shots of leads and some isolated cutesy moments. The plot never made sense from the beginning and their relationship essentially ran on forced jealousy conflicts but the isolated cute moments between Sarawat and Tine were enough for the viewers to overlook those issues. But once they actually begin a relationship, every bit of chemistry between them is sucked away. These characters have no arcs, no growth, no development, no motivation, no family, no ambition. There is nothing to this series but the visuals of the leads. Side couples are never given enough space to develop, they are just used as fillers.
Many sins of this series would've been forgiven to a major extent if they could only deliver what a romcom is supposed to do: create a cute, well-rounded love story. But they fail at doing even that. This isn't a love story, there is no sense of togetherness between the couple. Intimacy isn't kissing. Intimacy is the natural ease between two people who are supposedly in a relationship. That sense of ease, that natural chemistry is completely missing between the two. Ever since they became a couple, they just looked unhappy and distant. Even at the ending, they looked dissociated from each other. It was uncomfortable to watch. There are bromances that deliver significantly better love stories than this. If a romcom fails at such a basic thing, it doesn't deserve high ratings.

Acting: Mediocre to okay. Win was better, Bright is good at fond gazes but he seems constantly disengaged to me. Side actors were better.

Direction/Plot: Direction wasn't good enough and there isn't a plot. This series ran on forced conflicts and the most basic writing. Dialogues were consistently terrible too.

Music/OST: I liked the OST and the music used throughout the show, best thing about it really.
