I Love U Love U Love I (2013)

Story: The typical story where boy and girl grew up together treating each other as siblings but end up falling in love with each other. I usually think things like this is cute so I picked this one up. The beginning really got me hooked, but as it progressed it really lost me. I felt like nothing really interesting happened and everything was just so predictable and that the story was just so t-y-p-i-c-a-l, which made it really dull to watch.

Acting/Cast: The mains I must admit are really good looking. Chloe is really pretty and Jasper is super cute especially when he smiles. But them together just did not work - there was no chemistry at all. Same goes for the supporting cast, it felt like everyone was just literally reading their lines.

Music: I really like the opening song "That Girl" it's catchy and I had it on my replay list for awhile. Super cute song.

Rewatch Value: Little to none. Nothing really stood out in this, just a really typical drama.

Overall: This was a decent watch, liked how it was only 13 episodes so at least there wasn't the whole issue with dragging. I thought it was a nice and cute drama, but not one to put on your plan to watch list if you haven't already seen it.

I loved the OTP right from the start! I think they portrayed the relationship from step siblings to lovers realistically and I did think they had chemistry! Thanks to a lot of skinship in the beginning ;) They started as very comfortable with each other and overprotective, but clueless of their feelings, to finally realizing they're not only siblings to each other. The show also has one of the best OTP kisses, in my honest opinion! Smoking hot.

Story:
The writer, imo, aimed to show all aspects of love: unrequited love, between family members and friends, best friends to lovers, in marriage, etc. - and was successful. Every character had its motivations and purpose in the show, as well as their own story, which is not always the case - gotta appreciate it. The second female lead was bitchy, but rationally, as in - I know what I want and I will get it, without some makjang, to borrow the word, plots, but frankly saying what she wanted to everyone.
But... certain side stories I found uninteresting, especially in the first part of the show. The story is not packed with a lot of action - yet still manages to convey the confusion and the change the leads experience. The last part of the show was a total soap, which I think could have been avoided, but didn't stop me from enjoying the series! I hate such soapy elements, but was too invested in the OTP story to care, honestly, heh.

Acting/Cast:
I loved the main actress, but the male lead was just competent and failed in some "emotional" scenes. Others were fine, except for the second female lead's father who overacted. A very big surprise was the male lead's boss whom I hated in the beginning, probably because of his story, but whom I loved in the end.

Music:
Excellent! Love the songs and especially appreciated the lyrics in English, very appropriate and picked with the scene in mind!

Rewatch value:
Yes, in a year ;) With fastforwarding through the uninteresting bits with side characters.
