Started because Ateez, stayed because Idk why lol
To begin, I am an actor myself so this review will be from the viewpoint of someone who has experience.
The Bad:
I started watching this because Yunho, San and Seonghwa and Jongho from Ateez were in it. They’re all great! My main issue is with Female Lead and Male Lead + bad writing.
The FL/ML have no chemistry onscreen whatsoever. It’s not a believable romance between them and it’s really distracting. The members of Tea Party don’t quite have chemistry either, feels forced and they look awkward beside eachother. Shaxx is okay I guess— Jongho and Yuri being the comedic relief is nice.
But damn, FL/ML just don’t do it for me. The actress who plays FL always looks so tense in her neck area, like shes holding her breath through her scenes. Maybe she’s a rookie or something but idk, she doesn’t bring anything special to the role.
ML always has an angry look on his face, even when dealing with things involving FL (beginning of Ep 10) They are so painfully obvious about their relationship being over, like HOW DID NO ONE NOTICE THAT HE WAS SCOWLING THE ENTIRE TIME SHE PERFORMED WITH YUJIN?! Unbelievable lol
Overall the leads aren’t very likeable or believable in their romance. Second leads (The other two “couples” aren’t believable either) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ bad writing.
Also FL stylist must be nuts or hate her because her hair and outfits are horrendous.
Overall, Idk why I keep watching this. Mostly to support Ateez and because I have no better shows to watch besides Nevertheless.
The Good:
It’s a nice look into idol life, things we may never get to authentically see from the outside even though it’s obviously more toned down for TV.
La Ri Ma is a breath of fresh air.
Jongho and Yuri are cute as the young comedic Shaxx members.
ML is handsome and I can see potential in his acting
Um… that’s all LOL
