A drama that leads drag it till the end. If it was a different cast, no one would've remembered it as a nice drama, including me.

Story is like a fan fiction written by a mature fangirl; Our leading lady is a successful head curator in an art gallery, has a quirky (actually pretty idiot) boss who owns the gallery, cute co-workers and a pretty basic life, at least that's what it seems from afar. Sung Duk Mi is actually an office worker by day, part time fan page admin by night. When our male lead Ryan Gold comes to the picture as the new head of gallery, and brings a project including Duk Mi's favorite idol with him, Duk mi's life gets even more interesting.

First few episodes were so much fun, I mean, our female lead is a fangirl, has some cheesy moments but at the end of the day, she's still an adult who can bring sense to her surrendings. This point of the show was fun but things went downhill pretty quickly after like, I don't know, 7th or 8th episode of the show.

Leads getting together brought us many racy moments which were enjoyable until somewhere but than, the show only became about those moments. Anything happening beside kisses were like a fairytale written by a mom who is bored by her child questioning tales and just started telling random good things. That was the worst part of the show, everything being tooooooo good.

Leads are good people, male leads mom who we all thought abandoned him turned out to be really good person, female leads mom who turned out to be the reason male lead has a trauma on holding hands turned out to be a good person, I mean, both her parents are like a charity, taking care of everyone's children and stuff, female leads best friends husband who actually has been planning a "scheme" since the beginning of the drama turned out to be a good person, second male lead -whom we thought was female leads twin at first- turned out to be a good person, second female lead turned out to be a good person, list has no end! Everyone is good! Not just good, everyone is angelic good. Even fairytales have evil queens, yet this drama has everything safe that it's boring.
