This review will contain spoilers. Specific ones will be hidden but nonspecific ones will not. Please read at your own discretion. Also do keep an open mind since these are highly opinionated thats why its a reader review. If you disagree be respectful. Also Ive only read up to the series finale when I wrote this. I will edit this if my opinion changes somewhat through the spinoffs. My mistake was setting too high expectations for this manhwa because I love modern romances with some involvement of the entertainment industry. Indeed Act Like You Love Me will make you experience so many emotions: happiness kilig fear anger annoyance excitement disappointment and whatever else. However it was not always in the way that I wanted it to or the way that I felt like it had to. The humor was definitely there. There were so many scenes that had me cackling. The chemistry between the main leads were also there and I did feel kilig whenever theyre sweet or clingy to each other. Also the art is really good at balancing the gorgeous serious panels and the lighthearted funny scenes. But some elements were not as good. First the doll subplot. With how it was presented from the beginning youd think the doll would play a huge role in the entirety of the story. It really doesnt. Second the final plot arc was not it. I didnt like that they introduced a new character at around episode 100 and that episodes after that mainly revolved around Sahye and that guy. It felt like we lost the plot. Whats worse is that they made a haphazard redemption arc for Sahye while making rather decent ones for the two unchosen male leads. To me Sahye is unredeemable after her acts of assault kidnapping stalking blackmailing you name it. And yet the manhwa made it seem redeemable just by her eventually realizing shes been doing it all wrong. Lastly I cant find it in myself to fully ship Doyun and Jieon. Yes their dynamic is fun. Yes I felt butterflies in my stomach when they flirted and bantered and argued with each other lovingly. But some early scenes keep entering my mind. TW: sexual assault. This read is definitely not all bad because I can say I enjoyed it for the most part. I just wish some things could have been done differently. Still I would recommend you read it if youre just looking for something fun.
