This could've been a fun ride, instead it was a disappointing one
I started watching CL with pretty high hopes, but oh well...
I just couldn't bring myself to like the first ML. In the first episode he was introduced as this 'unlikable' character. I was aware of that and it still left me with a terrible perception of him. Any change to his behaviour that was introduced seemed to me as forced and fake. I really appreciate screen characters that are annoying and rude, but also charismatic. Unfortunately, Noh Go Jin was just unlikable.
Secondly, the love story between the main couple. Their feelings changed so suddenly. One day they hated each other and the other they were like 'Oh no, why is my heart fluttering?' You guessed it, I also don't know why. The chemistry wasn't there.
Finally, the toxic behaviour of the main ML to the FL. I dropped the drama when he blocked her from applying for the instructor's job and justified it with 'I'm afraid you're gonna leave me when you achieve your dream.' This isn't romantic, this is a red flag. I wouldn't mind it if he just insisted that she isn't suitable for the job.
I have nothing against cliché scenes, but there were a few that were just unhealthy.
Some things I enjoyed:
+ FL's dad - he was very warm, although I don't understand, why he liked NGJ so much from the first sight
+ pretended amnesia (just the fact that it wasn't real, at the end it got kind of boring)
+ the detective
+ main couple's chemistry when they were fighting
+ that the GoTop's 'spy' employee (I'm sorry, I don't remember her title) actually had a motive to work for the rival company
+ the hit on the head with an onion
+ badly edited couple photos
