Wasted the screen time for the nonsense hunt for Enchante. Nevertheless, Akk saves the show.

From the trailer to the ending, the drama didn't leave an impact on me. The only reason I started to watch this show is all thanks to Force and his undying handsomeness. Fortunately, him being Akk, is one of the few enjoyable characters from the drama, along with Im, Egg, and Saifa. If not for the sake of these people, maybe I already dropped this a long time ago.

I don’t have high expectations from the storyline yet I don’t want to feel disappointed at the same time. The biggest downfall of Enchante is the whole finding Enchante moments that is pure nonsense and drags the show to the bottom. It’s pretty tiring to the eyes and a wasted majority of the time of the never ending search for someone who turned out to be the searcher itself. Plots keep getting weird. After all those roller coaster quirky rides, Theo is the real deal. At some point I just joined the unremarkable flow of the story and told myself that sometimes rich kids tend to do silly as well as questionable things. It brokes my theory that the real Enchante was neither from the five of them but the art member, Tan. I saw a sight of him at the back when the four claimed that they are Enchante during the library scene.

Despite the sorrowful twists and turns of events, the main couple secured the chemistry needed for a love story. Their first kiss was so pleasingly romantic. Them sitting in front of a movie being played in a projector, plus the calming vibes of raindrops from the window, the red rose glaring at their backs, and the talked about challenging a kiss was absolutely a soothing and refreshing scenery for a glimpse of romantic development between the two. Yet, I wished that they did a french kiss since they already mentioned it but I’m fine as long as they kissed. I adore their lovey dovey moments together regarding the cliche scenarios. The flirting and little physical contact is sending me butterflies. Holding hands inside the ice box was something new for me. The pecking kisses simulated as a casual joke is cute as well but the rooftop kiss was so passionate. The time that they are finally able to release their long-hidden feelings by means of eating each others’ lips to a whole new level.

I feel bad that they made Theo a nuisance later on. He became too childish and unreasonable but I tried to understand where his emotions were coming from. He is far greater than the three Te-Te guys who awfully use him for their own selfish purposes. Saifah is an exception from them since he played as the actor casted by Theo. Wayo on the other hand is the worst. He deserved that punch from Akk.

The finale isn’t even close to being considered a good episode. I don’t like it at all. The sudden break up issue of his parents was an unforeseen scenario and I wished that the production should think outside the box for more possible kinds of conflicts since that was so bland. Throughout the episodes, I kept hoping to recover the previous flop episodes and EP07 made it. But then again, back to being flopped on EP09 till the show ended up with a boring finale episode. In spite of that, the little crossover with Krating and Punn from Baker Boys is a blessing. Love to see both of them once again!

The OST was good, especially that Tay Tawan is the one who sang it. Sometimes, the way they inserted a BGMs was inappropriate or not fitted to the element of the show. Overall, the show was a below average drama that only survived because of Akk. If not for him, I could have given it a lower rating. On the good side, there’s a little bit of entertainment factor that Enchante provided to me and it wasn’t that bad at all. I remembered someone commented that this show is “not that good but is still decent” and I kinda agree with him/her.
