My Royal Nemesis – Started Strong but Lost Its Way

I don't understand why so many people are calling this the best rom-com so far when shows like Filing for Love and The Perfect Crown exist.
My Royal Nemesis was very promising in the beginning, but at some point the story became completely absurd. The main couple seemed to be fighting almost every single day, and their relationship relied heavily on constant misunderstandings and miscommunication. I find it frustrating when grown adults can't communicate properly, and it became repetitive after a while.
Another thing that bothered me was the female lead fainting in what felt like every episode. It quickly became an overused plot device rather than something that added to the story.
As for Cha Se Gye, he was initially portrayed as a fierce, highly capable businessman who excelled in his field. However, as the series progressed, he came across as much softer and less commanding than the character we were introduced to at the start.
Overall, the show had a lot of potential and a strong beginning, but the excessive conflicts, weak communication, and inconsistent character development made it difficult for me to fully enjoy. It wasn't terrible, but it definitely didn't live up to the hype for me.
