EPISODE REVIEWS

There were cute moments this ep, but it was quite boring. The pacing is slower (in a good way), we can see how each couple develops. Special appreciation to the girls' friendship, I really like how they share their relationship troubles. Marin is best girl also! Still an okay watch.

As expected, I was much more drawn to the other main pair's chemistry, as their subtle development was extremely engaging and interesting. Their conflicting dynamic certainly mirrors real world scenarios, showing a classic cat and dog relationship from the last episode and also this one, which made for a very romantic interaction. Aside from that, kudos to Marin!!! Her somewhat mature character was a great addition to the series.

Another cringey and shy episode was this. The awkwardness was all around in that little cringe romance with the characters' first name-calling. The ep was exaggerated to the sense that the tone was becoming bland but, at the same time, compelling. The best supporting character here was Marin. Totally the heroine that saved this ep.
