i'm late in logging this lol i binged all ten eps literally the day after it premiered.
first of all, ew, coz kitty is quirky and clumsy af and is the typical privileged wattpad ghorlie. i love ann cathcart, but kitty? god no. i KNOW that if i knew her irl i would want to strangle her to death coz GOD NO. second, half the problems in this show could've been easily solved by proper communication. i was pissed at dae for not being able to say anything other than "kitty, i can explain" in the first couple episodes and it pissed me off. ngl, i loved dae in the beginning. he was an adorable bean, but i started disliking him in the second half of the show. third, Q AND MINHO AND ALEX THE AUSSIE TEACHER ARE THE REAL MVP'S OF THIS SHOW YOU CAN'T CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE THEY LITERALLY SAVED THIS SHIT. minho can run me over—i loved him, his sass, and his charisma, and just his character in general. i called it in the beginning even before watching the show that kitty and minho would be endgame, AND GUESS WHAT THEY WERE MUAHAHAHAHA. Q is loml why're the best ones always gæ but oh well i loved him as well hehehe. ALSO HOT AUSSIE TEACHER I REFUSE TO CALL BY NAME U WERE GREAT BAE U SLAYED. four, the Kitty Gay Panik™ era was not something i expected, but i think i probably did at some point. it was not totally unwelcome, but some aspect of it felt awfully like queerbait. five, the conflicts were what i used to write in 5th grade—dumb af. the plot was so 12-year-old middle schooler. i think jenny han's work is just not my cup of tea.
overall, it was a shit show, but it was a FUN shit show. thank god it was short or i would've lost it.
