a ray of hope that left me feeling disappointed

《Nevertheless,》 started with a strong storyline, interesting, somewhat relatable and lovable characters and a realistic background. And it ended with never-ending misunderstandings and cliches, horrible character development and awfully unsatisfying choices.

[Spoilers]
The story is about how an insecure and anxious Na-bi gets entangled with the creepy, playboy Jae-On who doesn't want to get into a relationship and only wants to have casual sex. This dude, from the start, seemed very interesting and had a whole bunch of red flags. And Na-bi knew what kind of person he is and how much complicated her life will become if associated with this guy. But Na-bi, despite knowing all of that, agrees to have casual sex with this creepy yet fascinating dude.

At first, both of them, were happy having casual sex and being "friends with benefit" or more like, "strangers with benefit". But problem starts arising and that was the ray of hope for me to see Na-bi having some character development. Well, she pretty much did. She ended it all with our creepy dude and finds a potato guy who loves her and is definitely not a fascinating yet creepy guy. Potato guy is just a normal, passionate and sweet guy who doesn't have any red flags and walks around with heart on his sleeves.

However, all of Na-bi's decent character development ended with Jae-On's apologize and a steamy kiss. With a steamy kiss, a few weird drawing and some months'(?) leap, she decided that she loves Jae-On and will date him, even though both of them (she and him) aren't sane and are probably not in their right mind for a healthy and loving relationship.

The music in this drama is just beautiful and it introduced me with RIO. She is such an awesome singer:)

The best relationship for me was the lesbian couple. I wish they gave them a bit more screentime. They were just adorable. Even though they had a lot of fights and misunderstandings, they are definitely one of the best couples i have seen so far:")

My 2nd best couple would be the teacher couple. They were real cuties^-^

I disliked the bffs to lovers couple for some reason:'/ not sure why:')

Overall, i do think is a good drama which had so much potential, but ended up being rather repetitive, predictable and cliched.

《Nevertheless,》had the good actors, an awesome and refreshing storyline and great cinematography(?) and beautiful OSTs. Also, the first half was really interesting and promising and execution, acting done by all the actors was amazing and came across as natural. But the 2nd half just seemed another "feisty girl falls in love with a playboy dude" kind of story. I think it is one of the best example of a waste of talents.
