The story of two side couple puppy boys who stole the damn show!

Note about rating: .5 of my rating is solely due to the side couple's storyline. Know that if I could rate them separately from the main couple, I'd be giving them an 8.5/10.

It started so well, with a high production value lending itself to making segments from the past idol survival show feel real. And the main couple was intriguing. Torn apart in the spotlight at their most connected. Then they ended up reuniting. Tensions high and words unspoken. An idol image to maintain and a dream not realized. Promising, right?

Well, unfortunately, they quickly failed to live up to expectations!

This drama's episodes are so short you'd think they wouldn't drag their feet with the main romance, but, Lord, did they ever! And despite the chemistry they had at times, their romance felt surface-level. After just a few episodes, I found myself completely disinterested in watching them avoid, misunderstand, and dance around their feelings for each other amid company strategies and scheming surrounding the forming idol group. Not to mention the lackluster ending they got.

The saving grace of Love Class S3 was the side couple who stole the show, Khun and Jae Min.

How my eyes strayed, and my attention was captured and never returned!

Their double meet-cute was nothing short of cute. They were pure yet cheeky. And, to my surprise, they ended up with real stakes and obstacles to overcome together and apart. And, somehow, they balanced an idol/campus love story along with a language barrier and cultural differences. Somehow, they made the interchangeable use of Thai, Korean, and English blend cohesively. Somehow, the cinematography in their scenes was better!

I could not believe how moving and intriguing their love story was compared to the main couple's. It's legitimately INSANE how inconsequential the main couple is in comparison!!!

The pacing, the tension, the sweetness, and the chemistry were all spectacular!

My recommendation? I think if you're going to watch it, it's better as a binge/skip forward until Khun and Jae Min are on screen.
