It's so bad that it would make a child cry

I have been fooled by the high rating on here but guys, I don't beg your pardon when I say: if you think this is good, you should definitely sort out your mind and maybe come back later.
I have watched (and dropped at episode 12 out of 16, because I couldn't take myself to waste even more time of my life watching something so mediocre) this drama last week and I'm still so angry at it, I had very high hopes at the beginning though they crashed all together on the harsh reality of poor acting and awful plotting.
I have to admit, the first three episodes were all right, I excused the main character lack of facial expressions in the name of his role: an antisocial loner out of choice. I liked the boy that I thought would end up being the love interest of our antisocial protagonist and I found his two friends quite okay. I was fully ready to nose dive in an enemies to lovers love story, I wanted the slow burn, even the misunderstandings, the late acknowledge of the main character or/and love interest feelings, but I witnessed how my expectations were brutally murdered by a very low budget and out of the blue love triangle.
Now, I'm not against love triangles per se, but this one was awful because the main character doesn't deserve one: he doesn't have any qualities nor flaws, he's just a very dysfunctional person, I don't get why a normal guy should take a liking (romantically or not) to him, so it's even more unrealistic that two good looking guys end up with a crush on him when he's nothing more then an item that follows them around.
Now, of course we're not looking for something realistic, but it should at least be credible in a way.
I liked the redhead boy, he's the only reason I endured the show for a few more episodes, but he can't take the whole drama on his shoulders.
Beyond the main character's actor lack of talent, another problem is the pace of the story: a lot of useless awkward scenes (background music exists to prevent shit like this to happen too) and too fast/too confusing feeling catching (ok, they are teenagers, I would have accepted it if the acting was better).
At the end, this review was all over the place, but I want to give you a very concise advise: unless you don't have anything better to watch, just do yourself a favor and don't waste your time on this drama.
