They exchange a lot of fluids

I DID NOT expect to like or even finish this cdrama. From the beginning the writing looked childish, cringe and over the top with plot holes, needless teen angst and not so convincing characters.

But this is my first xia-xia (I think?) and maybe I was drawn to the tropes of the genre? I need to watch more to decide I guess.

So here are the reasons I ended up binge watching this: there is a fairly developed world building, many side characters that are interesting and have actual arcs and relationships between them, the angst between the protagonists is real (I felt so bad for poor ugly Kui Mulang who was constantly rejected by his love interest) and I think they approached the story as a spoof. The whole affair was so fluffy and unserious that made the series a breeze to watch.

Cute story and some intense moments, hot protagonists but borning last episodes

I watched it for the ML and the simple but well executed story. I started it because I had seen a drama years ago with Yoona and I remembered I liked her but it was Junho’s hotness that kept me going. Some episodes were really intense, like the one where they first kiss or funny, like the initial ones where they hate each other. The Thailand episodes were nice too, haven’t seen many dramas shot abroad. But I was disappointed by the ending, there were so many opportunities to heighten the tension with all those family issues going on but they decided to serve us a half boiled soup.
