One of the few dramas that score for me over 7! I don't know if it's because this is the second K drama I had ever watched and thus I feel quite fond of it or because this is the only drama I've found till now that debates on relationships so openly. Even so, this drama is one of the best for me and a must see, if you want to spend a quiet afternoon watching it. The main story is about an apartment building and it's residents, a newly wed couple, two roommates, an unmarried couple who lives together and a woman who's dating a younger man. Each episode is focused on different stories that, most of the times, end in one episode or two. I liked that this drama was so open about the relationships, as it was free of those taboos (there was even a gay couple). The humour was plenty, with the jokes very entertaining without being silly. And for me, that dirty- innocent humour is the main reason why I love this drama. Most of the dramas you can find are about one main story, but the lover is more about laughter, a true comedy rather than romance, even though you'll find yourselves routing for the couples. The performances must be considered for the success of the comedy part, as the actors were a delight. Now, the soundtrack wasn't the best, but good enough. So, 9 out of 10.
