Four 10-minute fillers

Firstly, I was really anticipating this drama for no particular reason. And all I had expected from its description was some comical scenes between Kang Chan and Dae Yeon and some flashbacks of Min Joo and Kang Chan.

What did it turn out to be?

Noise issues
Opening into a drinking scene with Dae Yeon narration overlapping with drunken live streaming of Bang Hee, this series has many noise issues. Sometimes, it's the OST and sometimes, it's the narration.

Story/screenplay
It did make me laugh and sometimes it made me cringe. Much of the screentime was wasted in the live streaming and product promotions of Bang Hee which could have used for an additional scene of Kang Chan and Dae Yeon or Dae Yeon and Min Joo. Even the amateurish editing can be a pain for the eyes.

Acting
It was doable for a 10-minute series.

Closure
The ending was rushed. Proper closure could have been given for Dae Yeon's moment.

Final Verdict
Watch it for its duration. Watch it as a filler. Maybe between binging or when you have a few minutes to spare. Neither you would remember it nor you would be disappointed.
