Rushed storyline & cringe lines

The story seemed extremely rushed. I felt like the 2 main casts did not manage to spend enough time together to develop their feelings. It seemed like Jae Young suddenly fell in love with Sang Woo for no apparent reason. Jae Young seems to be bi (from his past relationships), but Sang Woo seemed to be straight before he met Jae Young, so to fall in love with Jae Young without having some sort of realisation or conflict seems unrealistic and strange. The two also weren't even dating, or had only realised their feelings for a week, before Jae Young had to leave for this seemingly important 'Dex'. (which was not explained at all throughout the film. Is it a job offer? And could Jae Young actually leave right now for the job if he had yet to graduate?) At that point, I dont think it is very logical to sacrifice your future for someone that is not even your boyfriend.

As a CS major in Uni, I think certain parts of the script were really cringe and difficult to listen to, as they had forcefully added some CS jargon that I had never heard in casual conversation before in all my years in Uni. Things like "I think you are an error". Things like the resolution of the last bug (in the last episode) were also very cringe -- Sang Woo mentioned that "It was because of the wrong return value" -- which is a really careless/stupid bug as it is a very simple fix, so he should have been frustrated at having been stuck at that bug for so long, instead of acting cool. (Also, where are all the laptops + chargers in the Software Engineering class??) I am also slightly disappointed that there weren't any scenes which showed them actually coding or creating the game. I think more research could have been done to make the scenes more natural.
