*** I Order You (2015) ***
(Viki 16 0:20 eps)
[!!CW!! Synopsis & non-spoilery review.]
An unemployed woman picks up food for her brother from a gourmet lunch box place, meeting 3 workers & falls instantly in love with the cold-hearted jerk (with multiple traumas that aren't even hinted at until later).
The first several episodes are tropey, stupid, & cutesy, although the FL cannot really pull cute off & is annoying, while the ML is stiff. Then we get to the episodes where the writer decided maybe it should be a melodrama with trauma. At this point, the FL's acting significantly improves, but the addition of the all-too-serious music had me laughing instead of sobbing. It was so ridiculous.
The side characters could have been interesting, but they were only pulled out for a few seconds here & there to advance the storyline slightly.
Only recommend if you're on a quest or you want to hate-watch something.
