Cute RomCom with little com and no follow through.

This was a fluffy, slice of life Rom-Com. The second half of the series is at least consistent with its themes over the first half which can't really seem to land any of the jokes or complete out a subplot.

The story revolves around the love story of Si Tu Mo (Momo) and Gu Wei Yi - two college kids who end up being pushed together when they both end up as apartment mates in an off campus apartment owned by Gu Wei Yi's mother. The story's main conflict is that Si Tu Mo has been in love with their mutual friend Fu Pei since high school but he's too scared of his father to confess their mutual attraction so he treats her like a pseudogirlfriend, possessive and needy but also emotionally unavailable. It's a cute little slice of life about being in school, trying to land internships but also the misadventures and misunderstandings of first love and dealing with first relationships. If you want a show that's just mostly fluff with a little bit of drama - this would probably fall right up your alley.

Cons:
- the show cannot for the life of itself land a joke or a subplot - it's constantly embarking on these tiny stories that don't really have a conclusion - Momo's boss steals her work, Momo quits her job, the internet finds out what Momo's boss did and the boss gets in trouble - does Momo land another job? Or get her job back? TBD. The audience is not told the resolution, at the end she's still unemployed and then there's an epilogue so we have no idea. This seems like a running theme in like the whole show. It just cannot land a punchline and complete the ending. There are so many times where I was confused at the point of the last 30 minutes of scenes for it not to progress the story forward and end up getting completely dropped in the next episode.

- the SML/SFL do not make any sense, it's such a one-sided relationship. The SFL (Wang Shan) is such a cool, hot, smart person and for some reason she's madly in love with SML (Fu Pei) who is sad, tall and hot but mentally a child? He grows into a better person by the end of the show from where he started but if you go from -50 to -10, you're still a -10. Fu Pei really sucks as a SML. He really only cares about himself, he has very little ambition and the ambition he does have - he doesn't care for follow-through. He asks the SFL out by saying if she doesn't go out with him, he'll hit himself with a rock. What?? Meanwhile Wang Shan is HOT, she's the third smartest person at their school, she's accomplished, she's sweet, respectful. What is her flaw? Oh, she's from a poor family ??? GIRL PLEASE. Meanwhile she's running after him registering him for his exams, tutoring him, reminding him to apply for bank loans for HIS business, keeping the lights running in HIS business. What is he doing to make her life better? NOTHING.

- the communication trope between the two main leads where the FL is passive aggressive and the ML runs after her all the time is SO frustrating. This is a first relationship show so I'm not even mad at the FL for being passive aggressive, I'm mad at the writers for never correcting it and asking her to grow as a person. This would have made for really good tv for the FL to understand that her bf is not a telepath and she needs to understand how basic communication works. There was a lot of growth and development given to the ML but the FL really doesn't get any emotional or character growth - she is the same through out and that really harms her character in the second half when she is the one being emotionally stunted and block headed.

Honestly I'm glad I watched this because I needed a reason to get over Legally Romance and this was a good palate cleanser but I would not watch this again.
