Story destroyed by TERRIBLE writing.

I thought i could wait for the cute moments and it would do it, but no, it just got worse.

The story had potential. The 'trying to impress my crush by learning chinese from the guy that likes me' was interesting. I liked the chaos of the main leads at first. I wish they kept them "enemies" a little longer.

The characters are meh, but i want to talk especially about Phojai and Phumjai. The relationship of the two brothers needed a better storyline cause it's more important that you realise at first. I believe Phojai is a more complex character than it shows. We needed a backstory, the reason why is he so protective of his younger brother and also a little story between him and Tag.

The writing is horrible and when I say horrible I really mean it.
There were lots of things that remained unclear. For example: Tammy doesn't know that Yang is the one texting her online in Mandarin. She thinks it's Phumjai. But when she meets Phumjai in real life, he has no clue what She and Yang are saying in Mandarin and she doesn't suspect anything?? Or the parents didn't ask about their son that was held hostage for a whole 3 months? And aren't they rich?? Well I guess asking for parents money is more pathetic than agreeing to be a slave (well not for much cause somehow he bacame boss nr.2??).

What happened in the last 2 eps was extremely unnecassary or at least could've been done better. Someone getting kiddnaped and used as a slave has a too big impact to the story for us to only find out when we have 1 and a half eps left to go. Rather than starting with "One wants to run a succesful bussines, and the other..." I think "One wants to TO PAY HIS FAMS DEBTS" could have been a better choice. Also at the end when they find out they met when they were kids was something...

About the acting.../
-None of them could pull the emotional scenes and it was really really bad I had to skip those.
-Daou & Offroad have more chemistry irl than on screen.
-Daou didn't fit this calm poker face type of character cause you can see that he was doing better with the type of personality he had when he was fighting with Phumjai in the first episode.
-Samuel was a perfect pick for O To. He did a great job portraying a cheerful character but also did good in those not so happy scenes.
