There's good and bad about such anthologies; the good being each episode is a story in itself; thus keeping it sharp and not having to watch the rest of the episodes in sequence; the bad is that each episode can seem rather disparate and not exploring the characters in full.
This series suffers from both of it I'm afraid. The initial novelty of the reality dating series is rather promising; but it peters off after a while as the stories become too conventional and dare I say it; boring. There is also some inconsistency at play here; with certain episodes fresh & insightful (such as Wu Kang-Ren's one) and some rather meandering and losing the plot.
Set in the not-too-distant period of the COVID pandemic; you do learn certain love & life lessons that are pretty pertinent. On the whole though; even the top-range acting cast fails to rescue an ultimately disappointing series.
