Teen romance packaged in office environment

This was a sweet and simple drama focused mainly on romance and the lead's ambition to work. Being a 7 ep drama it was not heavy on the mind though there was no takeaway as such. It perfect to binge when you need a simple romance.

The main story was ok and there wasn't much communication between the couple besides work. I wanted to know more about Seung Hyun and why he started late. But they never explored in depth. The one sided crush was a classic kdrama trope and just felt lazy excuse for him being solo. Jong Chan was a workaholic, good at his job and open about his feelings. I liked his character and if I met someone like in real life, I would definitely want to date him.
The drunken scene with the first cheek kiss was heart fluttering but after that there was no more romance as such. The kiss scenes felt obligatory imo.

If you ask me the story there wasn't much for me to say. The office plot was a bit unrealistic but not like get to your nerves.

Overall it was a okay above the par drama as I did enjoy few scenes and helped me lighten up my mood. You can watch and decide if you liked it or not since it has a small runtime.
