Eh.... was it a waste of time???
Is it fair to say I "completed" this series even though having skipped 60% of the show? Can I really write a review for a show I was confused on 80% of the times?
I was super confused throughout this whole show, but I kept watching for FighTor. Therefore, I won't be talking about the rest of the couples as there were too many for me to keep my interests.
The relationship between Fighter and Tutor is quite strange. I liked how it started, with the enemies trope then Fighter having a girlfriend?? but apparently Hwa was not a girlfriend so IDK what they were. However, somewhere along the way, their relationship got messy and I got confused. Throughout this whole time, we barely get to see any indication that Tutor might like Fighter. But the show kept throwing us cute scenes of them together which led me to think "WHY R U guys acting like a couple" but somehow, they ended up confessing AFTER denying it for the billionth time. The sex scenes were great tho... but I wish they talked things out more, especially towards the end. They solved a conflict which lasted 2 episodes long with like a 30 second clip which felt lackluster... The change in their relationship was just too sudden.
Their story might have been great if it weren't for the horrible editing and pacing of the show plus the lack of plot.
Story: gave it a 4, but there's not much going on tbh. Fighter likes teasing Tutor but Tutor doesn't take it for no reason. I love their Dynamic at the beginning. Especially when Tutor teases back. But then they admitted their feelings for each other and went to a romantic place to prove their feelings. when they got back Fighter's dad found out and tried to separate them. that lasted 2 eps long but solved within 30 seconds....
Acting: was good, not much to say about it tbh. Maybe its because my lack of interests that affected how I view the show. I didn't cry nor did i get overly emotional aside from mad and frustration (at Fighter for denying his feeling and at his dad for doing dumb stuff) Nothing special.
Music: couldn't care less. Only listen to the ost when they insert it in the cute scenes. Otherwise there will be parts with weird audio.
re-watch: only if you really like them, otherwise no.
EDIT: my thoughts and rating after re-watching
Story:
having rewatched the series, only the FighTor parts, I was less confused this time around and understood the story better. Having said that, the subbing for this series was quite confusing at times (I still appreciate the subs) and the pacing/editing of the show was not any better. It's a really fast paced story and some scenes are cut and is up for the viewer to catch the cue and infer. However, I still don't find that initial spark where Tutor fell for Fighter, we get that fighter fell for tutor at first sight but the feeling we get from tutor is ... why does this senior love to tease me?? what I'm missing is how that later on translates into liking fighter.... but if we ignore that and pretend they liked each other then it's all good. It's about two boys coming to terms with their feelings and accepting one another. They tease each other for attention but finally crossed the line. That lead them to question their feelings for one another and going on a trip to confirm it.
Acting:
Really good acting from both of them. At first, I was too confused to feel anything but after re-watching, I felt the emotional scenes when Tutor was distancing himself from Fighter. Really good scene from Zee on ep 12.
And Saint's seductive gaze on ep 9, that whole scene was HOT.
Music:
Didn't really notice it much but it did enhance the emotional moments.
Re-watch:
well.... I did re-watch it because I felt like I didn't fully understand it my first time so if you felt the same, maybe it's worth a rewatch.
original rating: 4.5
Now: 6
