Really cute for the most part!
Besides a few moments that really bring the show down, most of the time, the moments between the lead couple are so cute and funny! Especially Sun-gyeol. His expressions and interactions were a real delight to watch. My favorite moments were actually between him and Ha-In, and I love how their friendship developed. Also agree with others that the kissing scenes are incredible and cute!Speaking of Ha-In, while I loved his character as a person, there were several times I had a question in my head of just how ethical he was being as a physician. There was one scene where he told O-sol some of Sun-gyeol's family history and roots of his trauma, and I'm not sure that's something he should mention. In any case, I'm happy he didn't turn into a bitter person after he was rejected, and was really looking out for O-sol as an actual friend.
Also, I'm no expert on misophobia, so I don't know how easy it is to cure, but I feel like his condition looked plausible throughout the series. I'm not even sure if "cure" is the right word here, but he looked believably better in the end. Again, kudos to the actor, but he somehow made it look to the naked eye, like normal actions, but since we know his history, there was this uneasiness at times during moments that used to be impossible for him. The fact that he can do all of that now is impressive.
There were some times that felt unnecessarily dramatic (I know, in a drama? Shocking!), but I felt incredibly bad for Sun-gyeol toward the end. Especially the lead up to his accident. I don't care if no one agrees, but O-sol was absolutely partly responsible for that. Not of the accident itself, but the way he was feeling at the time. The one thing he definitely told her was that he felt she was the first person to really empathize with his condition and she didn't make him feel weird about it. Then, in some convoluted dramatic must-break-up scene, she tells him that it was "too much for her" and she was "tired" of him. Like WHY would you say that?! I love slow burns, but I hate terrible break ups just for them to get back together anyway. It was a nice ending, though, but still.
The other characters are great. I love the clean crew so much! Her brother is also fun, and anyone that thought he was mean has probably never had a sibling before. I could tell how much he loves and cares for her.
The soundtrack is also really good! "Cosmos" by Huh Gak is my favorite.
I absolutely recommend watching it at least once. Yeah, there are some moments you might have to get through, but I enjoyed it overall.

When this series was announced, I was so excited. The lead actor and and actress weren’t my favorite before the drama but I was looking forward to the story nonetheless. I was also skeptical because of the huge age gap between our male lead and female lead. After watching the entire series (with much much frustration) I came out loving the female lead actress and being obsessed with the Male lead actor. What sold this for me was definitely the male lead. At first I didn’t think he could pull the role off but now I’m so glad it was him because he made me feel every single emotion the male lead character felt. He made cry a lot because of how much you could feel his pain, love, angst. I should also applaud the female lead because she is still a teenager and she pulled that role off so well! I didn’t see her age at all and she had really good chemistry with both male actors. I didn’t think I was going to love the leads together so much, they gave me so much feels. I would love to see them again in a different lighter rom com, this one was just too heavy for me. The story could have been better. I really wish they didn’t add all that melodrama stuff, it really ruined the drama for me. Why I’m rating this low is because the couple broke up when they were barely together only for them to get together 2mins before the end of the drama. It was unsatisfactory. At the end of the drama, I didn’t feel satisfied even though the ending was what I wanted. Anyways WATCH FOR THE MALE LEAD AND THE LEAD COUPLE’s CHEMISTRY.

The story is very simple. There's a self-made CEO who suffers Germaphobes aka clean freak. He's obsessed with sanitation and feel compelled to clean excessively. He even avoids to in touch with another people because of the sanitation reason. And there she is, a woman who's really not into cleaning and stuff. The rest of the drama is as you guessed: the clean freak CEO is falling for the "dirty" woman.
I laughed a lot while watching because the female lead is super funny and I can tell from her face. The male lead is to be honest not my CEO kind of type. But I think it's okay since I finished watching all the episodes.
If you're into simple love story with not much conflicts, this one is for you.

Plain and Simple
Easy. This drama is pretty high in my list because this is just so FUNNY. The comedy had me rolling and laughing in tears at times. Yes, there were good and bad moments and sometimes I didn’t even know if I was having an emotional breakdown while watching but I have to give an 8/10 because it surely made me laugh and have a good time. Didn’t necessarily like all the characters in this drama for different reasons but I think the story and the trauma behind that story really helped the drama succeedWas this review helpful to you?

Didn't enjoy the ending.
I loved this drama. Yoon Kyun Sang and Kim Yoo Jung are fantastic. They were out of this world good.I hate that I can't give this show a higher rating than an 8.5. For how much I enjoyed the characters, the couple, everything, it just ruins itself at the end for so much of the last three episodes that it's more like you're being tortured than entertained.
Choices are made based on family pressures and other people's happiness that just feel like suffering to suffer from the FL. Which, okay. But if you're going to have one of the love interests cause the other one such pain and then think the audience should still root for that character to find happiness with them at the end... idk!
The male family members of both families are trash. The show attempts to redeem them at the very end, but it's just not possible. These three characters are portrayed to care only for their own happiness and come off as just vile creatures moving through the story to cause nothing but heartache and pain to the main couple. They just make the couple suffer, until the end when whelp change of heart... proving all the suffering they've put the characters through was unnecessary, even illogical. But what can ya do! Gotta have that easy conflict.
My biggest pet peeve is having characters do awful, awful things and then trying to redeem them right at the end. Such a bad trope imo. So frustrating, and often rushed and unearned. I adored the main couple, and really felt betrayed by what they did to that relationship in the final three episodes.

Some reviews made me hesitate to watch this drama And I thought it will be trivial but I was wrong
It's about mysophobia (OCD)
For the first time in Psychological drama In my opinion, the disease was treated in a correct way
With psychiatrist
Because it was annoying and illogical a lot when they made the FL heal the ML in this kind of dramas
She should be one of the reasons but not the Dr
Any way it was really good
It talked about many Psychological issues
Like :
*you can hurt people around you and you think you are right and loving them
*Phobia should be treated in a correct way or you can hurt others
*Power of love can heal
*Forgiveness is important and you should know whom you should blame
The drama was comedy romance
I loved cleaning fairies team work so much specially cha in ha
Secretary Kim was so funny and the ML's mother boyfriend also
I hated the grandfather attitude so much ,
he was so cruel ,
although he was good at the end ,
but that doesn't mean he didn't hurt many already
The romance was really good although I saw that there were too many kisses between main leads with no need
I loved the FL's brother story and hoped they could focus on it more
And they didn't say what happened in his college after 2 years
I loved the ML's mother but till the end they didn't say why she left kyun sang to his grandfather and travel abroad
The only thing that annoyed me that I saw the ML didn't fit the role
His face was too childish
I thought he was about 21 I got shocked when I knew his age
His acting was very good but he wasn't suitable for this role
He gave me the feeling he was a graduated school student not a business owner with mysophobia,
Which annoys me but not that much
I hated when the second ML is really good
I was so sad for him
He sacrificed a lot
The timing in this drama wasn't correct
They said days are passed then said one day,
They said the grandfather should die in 3 months but 2 years passed and he was still alive
I didn't see almost any thing wrong in this drama it was really good and light
For the first time they ended each side story in a satisfied way
Really I enjoyed this drama ☺️

Last three episodes were waste of time
I watched Chinese version before this drama ,all I can say that the Chinese drama is more improved one .Love story started after 11 or 12 th episode then tragedy they separated and get vey end of the last episode .
If Chinese version and Korean version mix and new drama launch with the same concept so I guess this story become more and more better.
This story didn't focus on other love story as well as not giving complete ending just in Chinese version.
Only acting was good specially main lead.
Lead actress' character took a lots of time to accept his feeling which make the drama bore especially the hospital scene she was so much in pain to see hime in such condition then to not accept his feeling such overreacting feeling she showed.
I like Chinese version more than this but first few episodes were good then Chinese one .

Jang Seon Gyeol is just the cutest thing ever, I don't know why people don't like his appearance. Those cheeks are soooo cute.
As I said, the story is okay. Lots of cliches, nothing new. I don't even know if the mysophobia thing was portrayed accurately because I'm not familiar with that condition, but it was really interesting to see the daily struggle and the character development. I think that was my favorite part of this drama.
However, the fact that whenever they had a problem they didn't talk to each other annoyed me to death, as the story went on there were lots of unnecessary drama and I just- my God, why is it that difficult to just talk about ~things~ and work things out
The OST was really nice, it did a pretty good job on getting you in the mood.

I really... really enjoy watching this drama and wait every week for this. The story, just like I said, is predictable. But, I can't help to not skipping this one. The "mother" of this story is just unrealistic, like, what on earth you throw a party to cure your son, you just make it worst. I love the chemistry between main leads. Both are cute together, especially kyun sang when he was jealous. So hilarious and fluffy. I just love the proportion of the couple here. Kyunsang just like a giant teddy bear when he's near yoo jung (which I love, because who doesn't love teddy bear, huh?)
I already recommend this to anyone who wants to see a light-cheerful-yet predictable drama (and most of them loved it)
If you want to start a light drama with less evil character and predictable plot, just start it and you won't be disappointed, because this drama is so hilarious

Casting, poorly written characters & heavy handed comedy ruin it
I wanted to like this but here was so much I just didn't like. Last things first; There is a 2 year time skip near the end with an unexplained miracle cure & a complete 180 of the male lead's personality. Then there is a bland ending where the main couple just hug. That's because they've already had an excessive amount of kissing beforehand, some of which created warm fuzzies, ( but they just kept at it & the spark just fizzled out. ) Then there is the matter of the casting. Yoon Kyun Sang was miscast. He is 6'4 and towered above his 5' costar. side views of him look like he is ominously lurking above her like a vulture! He was portraying a character whose medical condition would lend itself towards being on the slim side, but Yoon Kyun Sang is more lumberingly large. next problem I had was with the writing. Yoon Kyun Sang's character was written such that he was buffoonish with over the top comedic expressions & was repelling, not funny. He also spent the entire series being needy, with either a blank face or a hopeful desperate look, both of which were unendearing. Meanwhile, Kim Yoo Jung was perfectly cast & very appealing but was written to be too simple & incapable. It made it hard to be sympathetic to her. Her brother was also written badly & was a very flat unlikeable character. over all I'd say that it was poor writing or directing/interpretation of the character that was at fault. The real problem for this series is that there is a better rendition out there.NO, the real problem is that I watched the Chinese version (Touch Your Heart) before watching this & it was much much better. & randomly : Jasper Liu, the lead in the Chinese version (Touch Your Heart) looks like Song Jeu Rim's twin bother ! Clean with a passion for now was cringy & I couldn't wait to get done with it. Touch your heart I will definitely rewatchWas this review helpful to you?
