Cute and Mature characters elevate a standard story

I really liked this series! The main couple was just so darn cute, and the secondary couples were also great.

The story is not something really new, but what I really enjoyed was the fact that the characters were really mature in how they interacted with each other. They had flaws, and din’t always make the best choices, but overall this show lacked the many of the silly tropes that most Asian dramas resort to.

When the main couple had a disagreement or misunderstanding, I’d get ready for the big blowup and resulted in a pointless breakup. But NOPE! They communicated, expressed their disappointment, but apologized and moved on. I just think this is a very good role model for how couples should treat each other and we don’t get a lot of this maturity in modern dramas. They feel they need the artificial tension to keep folks interested. (Well, OK, people do dumb stuff in real life, and the series can mimic that, but it gets old…)

So, a good story, with healthy mature characters. So a rating of 10 for me.

My one complaint, although I won’t take a point off for it, is the ending was kinda of weak. I am seeing that a lot these days. The ending wasn’t bad, or dumb, just kind of weak. I wanted a bit more to happen to round things off.

But watch it!

Kudos to all the actors for making this believable and enjoyable.
