I am starting to turn away from Korean rom-coms

Yes, the plot was not original but I liked how the drama started out. I enjoyed the ML and FL not liking each other at first, then slowly getting to know each other, then starting to like each other. I understand there must be a love triangle but not for almost the entire series! I am very fond of budding romances where the relationship takes a long time to develop and the romantic tension builds. I disliked the open competition between the MLs for the prize of dating the FL. She can’t date both of them, that would be ludicrous (oh wait, she did). One ML was trying to win over the FL with gifts and flowers while the other was acting like a high schooler in love. A short love triangle, I can live with. The MLs fighting, over the FL, episode after episode was very displeasing to me (time to ⏩). I did enjoy the romance between the supporting actors/actresses. I won’t drop the drama but I am hoping a winner will emerge soon (I’m cheering for the screenwriter) so their relationship can move forward (up to Ep 8).
Edit: I'm up to Ep 14 and have to wait for the final two episodes. Okay, the love triangle did not last for more than a few episodes (my error!). I thoroughly enjoyed the romance between the ML & FL though the ML can be difficult and offensive. The events surrounding the MLs impending vanishing was truly heartbreaking (Nana, I'm here to comfort you!). I'm hoping for a happy ending. This drama started out with a cliche hate/love plot, then the love triangle before evolving into a beautiful love story followed by the breakup and the MLs upcoming vanishing/death?
Edit: Done with the last 2 ep! Finally! I won’t give away the ending but I was happy the ML & FL were back together. There was a trick ending concerning the MLs vanishing that caught me by surprise. Oh well, on to the next one!
