No chemistry between the leads at all. FL acting is especially disappointing.

There's no chemistry between the ML and FL at all. I absolutely feel nothing in their love scenes Even when they kiss. The FL seems to not be able to act in this kind of relaxing, comedy drama. I've watched her in Royal Nirvana and admired her a lot, but her job in this one is very disappointing. All of her kisses are blocking. All of her smiles as well. You can see she kiss and smile in the same way in every scene. There's no specific feeling in her smile or kiss. Even the eyes, the ways she glances or looks are obviously not spontaneous but meticulously designed. It's not wrong to design or choreograph in acting but the actors/actresses must act as if it's spontaneous so that it'd be called natural. To sum up, all her acting is highly blocking. Nothing feels natural.

On the opposite, the second male lead does a really great job. His acting is all that keeps me watching until I can't anymore. The worst thing that happened is that I started to skip the ML+FL scenes to just watch the second leads' scenes. That's how failed this drama is.

*Watched the whole episode for 12 ep. After that, I hopped between scenes. About halfway through, I decided to watch only the important scenes.
