This was really interesting at first, but then I started realizing how bland and annoying the story was becoming.

Honestly, I'm baffled that Sahyeon—one of the side characters—was so underutilized (at least up until this point). Sahyeon was such a charming character that I wanted to see more of. On the other hand, Calix (the love interest) was just so... plain. His personality was boring and dull; I found nothing about him to be interesting. I think the fact that a side character like Sahyeon was so significantly better than the actual main love interest just made me feel really bitter. The author clearly does know how to create compelling characters but decided against making the actual love interest of the story compelling. It's so much wasted potential.

Aside from this, I think the onslaught of misunderstandings and conflicts that drive the plot forward went on for so long that it became irritating to read about. There was always something that was taking away my enjoyment from the story, hence my low rating.
