This show started off decent and honestly just went downhill from there. The first half or so was fine-- the acting isn't great throughout, but it's forgivable enough-- but once they actually got to the beauty pageant, it got so muddled and confused.

It was like the writers didn't know what story they were trying to tell, and in trying to tell a lot of things in a short amount of time they ended up telling us essentially nothing. There was a lot of focus on side characters that didn't matter and not enough focus on the ones who did, there wasn't a lot showing the actual beauty pageant or anything other than catty behavior that didn't really do much for the story. The timeline started to skip forwards and back, and we seemingly skipped over some important parts of Meena and Cherine's story. All in all, none of this felt cohesive. Many scenes just felt cobbled together, and often it felt like the writers forgot they were writing a romance. It was very clear that this was just a cash grab to capitalize on the Engfa and Charlotte's fans, and really there wasn't even an attempt to make it anything else.

Honestly, my rating should be lower, but it hurts my heart to rate one of the few GLs out there so low. Actually, I really wouldn't have stuck through this if it weren't a GL, or if it wasn't such slim-pickings when it comes to GL. It really wasn't worth my time-- honestly I wish I had just dropped it.

I would suggest people just skip this one and wait for 23.5 or Be Mine the series to air.
