Not bad, just a bit boring

I finished it, probably will only rewatch Neo and Aungpao’s scenes if I rewatch. It’s not a bad series, just a bit boring in my opinion. There are a lot of scenes where I found myself losing interest and waiting for it to switch up. I needed more excitement and Comedy in this RomCom.

I think my main issue was the portrayal of Prem. He is a person who is so flat and boring that the scenes were also flat and boring. When a character is so non-descript then the plot really needs to carry the show, and it was to me way too predictable. Even the «plot twists» they introduced in the last couple of episodes made me roll my eyes instead of introducing any «drama» or excitement.

The love between the characters were believable, however the OffGun chemistry did nothing for me. It’s trying to be a wholesome series, and it does manage to be that. It was sweet, but it did not make me giddy. Although the main couple did have some shining moments that I liked, overall in my opinion, half the scenes with the cooking were too long and could have been left out.

The couple that were making me feel things were NeoAungpao. The side-couple carried majorly. I found myself tuning in each week for them and not the main couple. Without them or the friend characters introducing some personality into the show, I would probably have dropped the series.
