Ratings & Reviews

On rewatch the plot armor stands out even more, the mom's entire scheme collapses if any two characters talk for five minutes.

Painfully wooden acting from almost the entire cast, and the constant cussing feels like a teenager punched up the script. The leads are pretty and that's about it.

Watching this of my own free will 💀 the acting is painful to sit through and yet I'm fully invested in the story 😭

Hot take, she never actually set Caroline up, if anything she helped her 🤭 rewatch it and tell me I'm wrong

Decent chemistry between the leads but the mom villain has zero believable motivation, and the whole scholarship crisis stops making sense the second she starts throwing money around.

Episode 1 might make you go "what IS this lunatic" and bail. He's my favorite short-drama actor and even I hesitated. Please stay with it!! The acting is unreal, the way his eyes go, the way he smiles, each one gets me >_<
