Good Comedy but the Romance is garbage
This drama started of good & it would've STAYED good if not for that TIRED cliche of "they met when they were kids" and in this case only ONE of them was a kid the other was like 18 at least. which makes it SO weird.
But let's start over.
The MLs (can't remember his name) team was introduced in the 1st ep as these cool& useful ppl. but they tanked one of the characters right after he was introduced. he was supposed to be this super strong, super fast guy. he was introduced while chasing down a car on foot! yet every single time they need to chase the culprit he's suddenly lacking in speed? are you telling me this random psycho murderer runs faster than a car? The guy just ended up being comedic relief which is fine but why introduce him as smth else & NEVER stick to it?
THEN we have the FL. To start off her & the ML had no chemistry & she had no actual reason to like him other than the fact that she had a crush on him when she was 12 (& he was 18). and a big peeve of mine is that she's a cop, but she punches the ML who's a civilian several times! not even in self defense either, she just decks him bc she's annoyed? She also stalks him for whatever reason??
Now the biggest issue, the romance (or lack thereof).NO chemistry between the leads, the only reason they give for her liking him is bc she had a crush on him when she was a kid & was a full adult with a job! Luckily the ML had no interest in her at the time so he's not a criminal but that's the only foundation for their relationship. And the guy who's the 2nd ML was the PERFECT choice. I'm nktbsaying that bc I particularly like him or anything. but they had a solid foundation & relationship & they didn't meat when she was 12!
So all in all the show isn't horrible, the comedy aspect is actually really funny. but the romance is just garbage and that one character discrepancy. so if you ignore those things the show is tolerable, but I personally just couldn't look past the fact that the ML & FL met when she was 12 & he was 18 regardless of they had mutual feelings at that time. it's just weird and unnecessary. they just had to use one of the most dragged tropes ever in the worst way possible
