Shallow Plot, Unbearable Characters, and a Waste of Time to Watch

Actors

Both lead actors look great, and one of the reasons I wanted to watch was because I like the lead actor.

Music

The music is terrible.

Plot

The plot is shallow and particularly irritating.
It feels strange from the start, with no real context or realistic elements.
Instead of facing new challenges, the story keeps bringing back past characters, especially exes.
The constant reappearance of past characters is very frustrating, as it avoids dealing with other difficulties and challenges.

Characters

Both main characters are unbearable.
The female lead is a pathological liar, making it hard to understand why anyone would fall for her. She's a people-pleaser at any cost, which I find completely unappealing. I have no patience for such characters.
Her character doesn’t wise up or grow, and from what I gathered, she keeps lying, so it didn’t interest me.
The male lead is equally insufferable due to his passive nature—he never takes responsibility or direct action, always relying on deception.

Overall
The first half is decent and somewhat entertaining, but from the second half, when the ex returns, it becomes unwatchable unless you skip most scenes. I would have skipped watching it altogether and wouldn’t recommend it.
