A sweet drama that cheers you up!!!

I am giving this drama a 10 on 10 cause this drama gave me peace and made me happy. After some time I binged watched a drama and finished in less than 24 hours. It was sweet love story and made my heart melt. The Chemistry between the leads was great. Loved it!!! one percent of loving something is actually important . the visuals was good too. I loved their acting. and ISTG their first kiss was literally heart melting, i fell in love that moment. Jae In and DaDa was so damn cute throughout the drama. I loved how they both were so jealous LOL. loved the friendship of Dada and Hyeun Jin. So this drama was a good experience for me

The plot is as cliché as it's predictable but it fellt like a light breeze compared to some of the other dramas. The plot was nothing special, for me it was the main couple who made this drama to what it is.

The main couple had great chemistry and I really really liked Kim Da Hyun as a character. She was very real and down to earth and most of the time reacted and gave the exact replys as I hoped she would give. She was straightforward and confident in some areas and insecure in others, just like people are. Lee Jae In was a character with many flaws, but he had a charm which I think could melt anyones heart, I know mine did anyway haha
I could go on and on about the lovable, and not so lovable, characters of this drama.
It's sad how rare it is with female friendships that reflects how female relashionships looks like in real life, but the one Kim Da Hyun had with Im Do Yun definitely is one of the few. It was refreshing to watch.

To prevent the risk of spoiling I will stop here. I have really enjoyed this drama, I was practically obsessed. I am positive I will go back to this drama many times, it's definitely one to rewatch.

Simple drama yet sent me lots of butterflies in my stomach

Usually, what I would say is that the story is cliché but this drama made me feel otherwise. The story is just basic and simple and this is a common plotline but for me what stood out the most is the way that the story is being portrayed. This reminds me the good old days of 2015 dramas, it's the year when most dramas I've watched is pretty solid.

Before watching this I saw a lot of reviews about the chemistry of both leads which I immediately noticed since the first episode. It looked all real to me. Most of the time I find kissing scene gross but on this drama I really really loved it. Those sweet little peck and kisses between the character sent butterflies to my stomach and reminds me how sweet dating someone you like can be.

It doesn't have much of twists and turns on the story. Just plain scenario of what a normal couple has to overcome. (Although this one is an extraordinary couple which has an entirely different lifestyle) One thing I noticed as well is that there are too many supporting characters that I don't really know why they're included on the story. I mean I kinda hoped they have more story about why they're there. Nonetheless, it's still great.

I really love and appreciate this storyline. I have nothing much to ask for. I recommend this one, I believe that this could be a hidden gem in the KDrama world.

I was bothered at the beginning by the quality of the drama and felt the male lead to be a bit childish, yet as the episodes went by, the drama kept improving and the characters developed nicely.
Though this drama had the usual cliches, it managed to stand out from most of the drama I've seen or heard of before. Whether you hate or love side stories, you'll have to do without (for most of the drama) since this is a drama that 'actually' pays attention to the two main characters and their relationship. Side characters are therefore actually 'side characters'. If you like heavy drama, this might not be for you, since they're so honest with their feelings, I couldn't even bring myself to mentally yell at the screen or throw popcorn. It's filled with lovely dovey scenes throughout the show and the chemistry of the main couple seems justified. So if you're tired of melodrama and want a dose of cheesy romance, give this drama a try.

A simple and sweet romcom

I saw this romcom recommended in some reddit threads so I decided to give it a chance. The story is pretty predictable for a plot revolving around a contractual marriage. It all starts from the FL, Kim Da Hyeon, saving and taking an older man to the hospital. This man ends up being Lee Gyu Chul, the chairman of SH Group. In an attempt to make his grandson change into a better person, being less arrogant and a jerk, he changes his will so that Lee Jae In, the ML, will inherit his fortune if the two leads enter into a contractual marriage.

However, will they both agree?
ML is an arrogant jerk that is not liked by those around him including coworkers. The FL is a teacher that is usually kind and warm but does not sit back when needed. She can be sassy and a bit sly if needed. Hearing the offer the FL strongly disagrees from the start but ultimately agrees to date the ML for 6 months.

As time goes on they start getting closer, going on dates and spending time with each other so they slowly fall for one another. Despite some angst involving an ex to the ML, that by the way is very unlikable, and a breakup later on they end up together.

The story is pretty boring and bland in my opinion. There is not much depth to the characters, especially the FL. She has no backstory. They could have added some backbone to her so she could be relatable. Maybe something about her childhood, her dreams or life prior. She was very superficial. That stands true for others also. including both MLs and FLs family members, for example the ML mother(s)

I didn't know of the lead actors prior to this drama. I later saw that ML played a guest role in CLOY but I don't remember him. Their acting was pretty good and their chemistry was decent.

Overall it’s still a nice drama to watch when you want something easy, relaxing and calm. The episodes are on the shorter sides for those who prefer that as well. It wasn't all bad. It was sweet and cute as well. The story is too simple and I have realized I just enjoy more emotional and/or intriguing plots.

TRULY A HIDDEN GEM. If it was produced by the Big 3 media company or Netflix it probably would have gotten attention. It might be a contractual relationship type of drama but it started differently unlike the usual where the MC do it in secret or pretend relationship but for them it was a real relationship but contractual if you get what I mean. And you don`t get to see a drama where they`re in a contractual relationship to fool someone, not to mention it was forced upon them to be in it lmao. They also have a great chemistry which is great. Of course, you can expect the usual scenes that happens after the contract date ends where all the heavy dramas come in and whatsoever. But that`s something you can just overlook because it did not really take that long unlike other dramas that would another 2-3 episodes to patch things up. Overall, it`s a cute chill drama you can enjoy.

Trully enjoyable

I found this drama when i was in the mood to watch about from enemy to lover drama. I googled and i read the reviews on MDL , as i always do before i watch any drama. Decided to watch it and ended up bingeing for 2 days! It was so enjoyable, funny, romantic, the story line does not make you wan to skip fwd as well...in fact every episodes i went to reply few scenes, on each episodes.

The chemistry is amazing, and the male lead is seriously the best kisser i've seen on Kdrama. There were many of kissess scenes and they fit the scene perfectly.

I will watch this again surely! And boy i am so glad i found it. Really recommend!!!
