Poorly executed and underdeveloped plot lines

This series comes under the genre of war of y and has similar behind-the scenes kinda story.
I will be honest here, they had some good ideas for a series with potential. But the main issue with this one is that the script is so poorly written with lots of loopholes and weird scenarios. At times ,which is a lot of times, things doesn't make any sense. None of the characters are explored enough and makes us feel disconnected to all of them.
Coming to the acting part, except for the actors who played Zo and Gun (they really did well), and almost phawin, the rest of them have no acting skills whatsoever. It looks very shallow and artificial. All the characters have complex emotions and plot lines, but none of them were utilized or expressed.
....
Spoiler ahead....

I can probably get my head around most of it, but the part where the sasaeng (stalker fan) who does a lot of scary stuff and threatens to harm one actor's life was invited to live with them rather than being handed over to police baffles me. Like, in what world does that happen!!!
..
There are two love triangles (one of them isnt actually a "love" triangle) and both are poorly developed in a deeper level.
The story if it were given in the hands of a better director and scriptwriter, would have made a drastic difference, because it had potential ....but sadly it didn't work.
Watchable, but not really worth your time.
