Surprisingly terrible for how highly rated it is

It’s rare for me to drop a drama this far in, but I simply cannot make myself slog through any more of this. The show is what it is and I don’t expect anything will change.

There is very little plot here, and it’s straight up boring. But worse than that are the characters. The FL is set up as some genius rockstar gamer girl, but absolutely nothing on screen supports that. She is naive, simpering, weak-willed, and easily pushed around. The ML is supposed to be the campus hot guy, but he is essentially a block of wood. He displays little emotion other than arrogance, condescension, and occasional rye amusement at how silly his girlfriend is.

The main actress also seems quite uncomfortable performing intimate scenes (or she was directed to be that way, who knows). The kisses are ridiculous to watch - the lead actor is actually trying to perform passionate kisses (and is quite good at it) while the actress stands stockstill and pinches her lips together tightly, looking like she can’t wait to get out of there.

There were some side characters and potential romances that I was mildly interested in, but they didn’t get enough screen time to keep me going. If you want a modern cdrama romcom with video game elements I suggest watching You Are My Glory instead.
