Disappointing as a romance
The ML is by far the best thing in this story. I adored him and I think he played his role very well, considering the script. I'm not mad I watched it just to see his cute face. The ML is however the only reason to watch this.
The FL is a workaholic who catches the eye of a sweet, kind and very pretty man. He immediately (for reasons we will never know) falls for her and tries to have a relationship with her. I don't know if he spent more than a few hours with her in their first 3 months together.
I was expecting character development and that the FL would learn to have more balance in her life. I did not get this. In fact, if I watched a show were a ML treats a FL the way this stories FL treats the ML I would have seen him as a user. The FL knows she is a bad girlfriend but is okay with this, so she clearly doesn't care for him.
I don't understand why the ML is so infatuated with the FL. She knowingly ignores him 99% of the time (I'm not even exaggerating) and when she sees him she gives him minimal amounts of affection. Maybe its the old "Treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen" adage. This is one of the few (if only) stories I've watched were I really hope they break up in the future.
So the MC's have a very depressing "relationship" and it doesn't get better. If I wanted to see crappy relationships I could just look around IRL.
The story ended on a heartbreaking note when he realizes he won't see her (again) for an undisclosed amount of time (again) and tells her to just call him when she wants to see him again - he will rush over when she remembers his existence (last 5 words added by me). Ugh, I lost some respect for him there.
If you love romance, skip this story. On the other hand maybe put the sound off and just look at the pretty ML for a few hours.
