Not worth watching
I really tried to give this series a chance, but after finishing it, I honestly feel like it was pure flirting with barely any actual story to support it.
After Episode 5, I was already complaining about the pacing because it felt like the story was going nowhere. Unfortunately, things didn’t really improve much for me. The whole series kept circling around the same thing — flirting, flirting, more flirting — without enough plot development to make me genuinely invested.
Don’t get me wrong, there were definitely funny moments. Some scenes genuinely made me laugh, and the cute interactions between the characters had their charm. But cute flirting alone can’t carry an entire series. 😭 At some point, I was just waiting for something to actually happen.
The pacing was painfully slow, and there were so many scenes that felt unnecessary or repetitive. A lot of the material could have been trimmed down significantly. Honestly, I still stand by what I said after Episode 5: this would probably have worked much better as a movie or a much shorter series.
And then there’s the acting and direction. 😭 I really struggled with both. Some scenes felt awkward rather than naturally romantic, and the lack of convincing emotional delivery made it difficult for me to connect with the characters or take certain moments seriously. The direction also didn’t do much to elevate the material.
By the end, I found myself thinking, “Is this really all there is?” 🥲
At this point, if I had to choose, I’d much rather rewatch Me and Thee than spend my time on this again. Unfortunately, for me, Duang With You ended up feeling more like a waste of time than an enjoyable watch.
I really wanted to like it because the premise had potential, and there were moments where I could see the cuteness everyone might enjoy. But overall, the lack of story, slow pacing, repetitive flirting, acting, and direction just didn’t work for me.
Final verdict: Cute? Sometimes. Funny? Occasionally. Romantic? Definitely. But a good story? Sadly, not for me. 😭
