ParkMin
The main theme was bloated super messy entanglements. These relationships were poorly and unjustifiably tangled for the sake of it. The girls were constantly switching love interests between the same 2-3 guys with no repercussions affecting the story, dynamics and friendships. The synopsis was mostly misleading, whatever is mentioned about friendship was nothing but a small trivial thing that was barely worked on during its runtime, mostly during the last episode. They were all up into each others love interests but none of the girls had direct interactions and/or confrontations in that regard because it would bring sour feelings that would be impossible to clean up by the end. Sloppy chaotic mess can have some entertainment value in melodrama/makjang world watching chaos ensues but this drama couldn't even provide that. The final resolution was weird, forced and just generally bad.
