A chaotic, star-studded romance.

This honestly seems like fanfiction where everyone falls in love despite the need for professionalism in the entertainment industry.
Plenty of heart-fluttering moments, along with some cringy ones. The main characters seem to have fewer scenes of bonding at the beginning, due to which their romance seems rushed. But when they do get together, it is absolutely adorable! The actors seem dedicated and passionate about their roles which is really commendable. The plot is not heavy on action, except for a few conflicts introduced later in the show, most of which are predictable. Yet, it still does a good job of keeping you engaged and curious. The direction of the scenes has been very thoughtful, especially in terms of the set design and colour tones used in certain frames. I think this drama could have been wrapped up in 12 episodes but by extending it to a 16-ep run, they invested in building the relationships of all characters alike. That's beautifully done.
I would definitely recommend it if you enjoy the enemies-to-lovers trope!

While this drama exceeded my expectations, I do have two points to critique here: *MILD SPOILERS, BUT VERY IMPORTANT*
1. The representation of African people was inaccurate, or controversial even. Portraying it as an underdeveloped continent only functioned as a device to further the storyline of the male lead.
2. There is a scene in episode 2 where the male lead almost unbelts his trousers to prove a point in front of the female lead which feels too exhibitionistic and icky.

Also, please be mindful and grounded while watching if mentions of suicide are triggering for you.
