The Magic of a Fantastic Support Cast
This is a classic style feel good rom-com, that is entertaining to watch. The lead actors did really well playing their parts, but what pushed this drama into a solid 9 to me was the support actors and the editing. The support actors were so funny and made what could have been a standard rom-com into so much more! The editor did a great job at split screening facial expressions to capture every quirky moment. Even the mentally deranged antagonist (the actress was very convincing) you just feel pity for, because she is missing out on all the love/support from friends, family and coworkers. The spice level was decently average for a rom-com, but the drama itself is a solid recommendation from this drama watcher for comedy, romance and a just enough angst to wonder how it will be resolved.Was this review helpful to you?

Interesting
After a long break I see a typical korean drama with good act, screen play and casting. Please watch this drama and it definitely won't disappoint you. It's a one line story but they made it with interesting way. Both the artists are playing very good and expressive. Making me eager to watch the next episode.Was this review helpful to you?
ABSOLUTELY F NO
Contemplated watching this show till the end just because, but i just reliased no one is forcing me to continue this. As someone who didn't read the webtoon and just watched this drama cause i am a fan of the FL everything in this show after episode 2 is just not worth it. To be frank i know it's only February but we may just have our top contender for worst korean drama of the year. Because how do u mess up such an interesting direct storyline like Unexpected pregnancy and One night stand. This is literally one of the easiest tropes to make because u don't even gotta do much just literally show us how it happened and how they decide to handle the situation. The thing that baffles me even more is u literally had a direct Webtoon to follow that people loved so it's not like u had to use ur head to come up with new details u literally quite simply had to follow the book. And why is our female lead dressed like a Grandmother? Do the writers think women in their 30s and 40s give up on style once they reach that age because why even the Female leads best friend and the Male leads niece are outdressing her i would even go as far as to say the Sister in Law was outmogging her in style each episode. How do u turn one of the most beautiful actress in Korea into a frumpy Ungodly sight? Poor girl was using her face card and had nothing else to offer. And as for the ml i don't even have an actual opinion on him that's how boring he was for me absolutely bland stereotypical annoying mess in fact everyone in this show was just annoying especially the sister in law i mean if u want to create a villian create one with an actual reasonably reason to hate u would have been better if it was the ML mother or Father or someone else rather than her. Also why are Korean dramas obsessed with the idea any man around u especially ones who have been with u seen u were little are automatically in love with you? Same as dynamite kiss. Why are Platonic male and female friendships some sort of rare commodity tbh i would be pissed if my friend whose had years of time and didn't confess says something when i finally get a man in my life because tf no should have done that longgg timee ago I'm already taken. I don't even know what to say from the terrible domestic ratings, incompetent writing and very conservative fan base this show is just an absolute complete mess.I am of the opinion u could gather 5 random users on this platform and they would create a better storyline than this but well whats done is done.
Also shout out to the sexiest messiest loudest most dramatic conservative comment section i have ever witnessed on this platform. I thought i had witnessed it all but well this comment section proved me wrong some of yall are really stupid.
A woman can and should always have the right to choose what to do with her body argue with the walll.

This Drama Should Be Called "Inspired by" NOT Adapted!
I gave this drama a chance even after they changed Jang Hee Won's job, because I love the original webtoon.The critical issue highlighted in the webtoon is about a teacher who ends up in a shotgun wedding, however they changed into another classic office romance.
They also change Kang Do Joon's life by adding some traumatic past, and the moment I saw Kang Do Joon's throws fit, I'm not longer acknowledged that this drama is an adaption from webtoon.
Too bad they changed the story and the character too much til there is not a single main point from the webtoon included in it.
I don't know if none webtoon readers will enjoy the drama, but if you are liking the drama, i'm not advice you to read the webtoon before the drama ended to spoil the fun ^_^

Positively Yours: A Sweet Romance That Had Me Smiling Like an Idiot
I finished watching Positively Yours last night, and I can confidently say — it was absolutely worth the time and emotional investment.Before starting the drama, I had already read the original webtoon. I was curious about how they would adapt the story, especially with the noticeable change in the female lead’s occupation. In the webtoon, she was a teacher, but in the drama, she is portrayed as a career woman working in the alcohol industry. Surprisingly, this adjustment didn’t take away from the essence of the story. Instead, it added a refreshing, modern layer to her character, making the adaptation feel familiar yet newly vibrant.
Despite the criticism circulating online — comments questioning the leads’ acting abilities and even unnecessary remarks about their appearances — I found their performances genuinely convincing. Both main leads embodied their characters with warmth and sincerity. Their chemistry wasn’t explosive in an exaggerated way; rather, it unfolded naturally, in soft glances, awkward pauses, and tender moments that felt real.
While the drama was still airing, I found myself eagerly waiting for new episodes almost every night. That anticipation itself speaks volumes about how invested I was. It’s a light-hearted romantic comedy that doesn’t overwhelm you with excessive drama. Instead, it comforts you. It makes you smile uncontrollably, cringe in secondhand embarrassment, and sometimes even squeal in pure joy.
The pacing was smooth, the storytelling well-structured, and the emotional beats were balanced perfectly with humor. If there’s one complaint I have, it’s that twelve episodes felt too short. Just as I grew attached to the characters and their world, it was time to let go.
Positively Yours is a gentle reminder that sometimes, simple and warm stories are enough to leave a lasting impression.

? Positively Yours — Simple Love, No Drama (Literally!)
This drama is actually pretty good — and the best part? No breakup-patchup chaos! 🙌 Finally, a romance that doesn’t rely on unnecessary drama to keep things going.The story follows two strangers whose lives get unexpectedly intertwined, leading to a relationship that slowly grows into something meaningful. It’s simple, a little predictable at times, but still warm and comforting to watch.
The plot works, the chemistry is there, and it gives you that soft romantic vibe without stressing you out. That said, the music didn’t stand out much, and personally, I don’t see myself rewatching it.
Still, as a one-time watch, it’s definitely worth it — especially if you’re in the mood for a light, feel-good romance. 💫
P.S. – Sometimes you don’t need complicated love stories… just two people finding each other at the right time is enough. 💛

Positively Yours’: When Irresponsibility Is Framed as Romance”
A woman is forced to carry the responsibility of pregnancy simply because she had a one-night stand, while the man who refused to use protection can walk away. Even if he later “takes responsibility,” he will never go through pregnancy, labor pain, or childbirth. That burden is forced on the woman by nature alone.And what if she’s married? What if she doesn’t want to be involved with him, doesn’t want to marry him, or doesn’t want to be a mother at all? Consent to sex is not consent to pregnancy—something even married couples decide together.
Not using protection isn’t a tragic flaw or romantic complexity; it’s basic irresponsibility and a lack of respect. It strips a woman of choice and forces life-altering consequences onto her without consent.
When a show presents this casually, people are completely justified in criticizing it—even after just one episode.
The show treats stalking as if it’s romantic concern. Finding her address without consent, watching her from a distance, intruding into her personal life, and interrogating her choices are framed as “caring.” This is not concern—it’s surveillance. If this were happening in real life, it would be frightening, not flattering.
What’s even more disturbing is how the narrative openly pressures her to carry and deliver his baby. She is not asked what she wants. She is not given space to decide. Instead, she is pushed, cornered, and emotionally coerced—then told to “at least try” dating him. Not because she desires it, not because she consented, but because he decided this is how things should go.
This is not courtship. He is not requesting the chance to get to know her. He is imposing rules—meeting three times a week, maintaining contact, staying involved—despite her clear discomfort. That is control, not romance.
The woman is reduced to a function: a womb with obligations. Her autonomy, freedom, and right to refuse are treated as inconveniences that the story expects her to “grow out of.” This framing dehumanizes her, turning her into a baby-making machine whose life must now revolve around a man’s mistake and entitlement.
Calling this “love” or “responsibility” is dishonest. It is forced intimacy dressed up as destiny.
When dramas normalize this behavior, they are not exploring moral complexity—they are promoting a deeply regressive idea: that a woman’s body and future can be claimed once sex occurs, regardless of her will. That is not romantic. That is coercive. And yes, it is barbaric.
So no, viewers don’t need to “watch more episodes” to criticize this. When a show casually excuses stalking, erases consent, and glorifies the stripping of a woman’s freedom, one episode is more than enough to recognize the problem.
He is the president of the company she works for. He holds institutional authority over her career, her future, and her daily professional life. She was selected to study in Germany—something she genuinely wanted, something that represents independence, growth, and a future beyond him. That context matters.
So when he says things like, “It’s your choice whether you keep the baby or not,” those words are meaningless. Consent cannot exist under intimidation. A choice made while someone controls your job, your visa prospects, and your professional future is not a real choice—it’s pressure disguised as politeness.
His actions repeatedly contradict his words. While claiming to respect her decision, he continuously pushes, manipulates, and corners her into keeping the pregnancy. While acknowledging her refusal to marry him, he still forces the idea of marriage onto her, treating her clear NO as something temporary, negotiable, or irrelevant.
This is textbook coercion.
Emotional coercion.
Economic coercion.
Professional coercion.
The show normalizes a deeply disturbing dynamic where a powerful man uses his position to override a woman’s autonomy, then masks it with soft dialogue so the audience is expected to see him as “responsible” or “misunderstood.” He is neither.
Saying “it’s your choice” while actively sabotaging her ability to choose is manipulation, not respect. Ignoring her refusal and continuing to push marriage and forced intimacy is not persistence—it’s entitlement.
When a drama frames this as romance instead of abuse, it isn’t just bad writing. It’s dangerous storytelling. It teaches that women’s boundaries don’t matter if a man is powerful, persistent, or emotionally invested enough.
And that is exactly why criticism after just one—or two—episodes is not premature. The message is already loud and clear.

Don't trust the negative reviews.
I almost dropped watching this drama reading the negative reviews. This drama is not unique, it has a simple story , its healing. There are many similarities with the old drama you are my destiny. But there are differences. You should give it a try before trusting the reviews. If you love watching reverese romance dramas, you will reallylove it.
This is NOT a one of a kind great drama.
This is a normal office rom-com with good plot , good acting, not bad backstory and good ending.
Also as a fan of business proposal and sh**ting stars, i can say that this drama has a good rewatch value.

Boring
"Drama" it is not.It's the same old story told a thousand times. Unfortunately, I can't find enough redeeming qualities to keep me watching.
Yes, the fact that the leads aren't in their early twenties is a nice change. But neither of them is at all appealing. Come on, we KNOW there's eye candy out there in their thirties and forties. "Love is For Suckers" comes to mind.
Evil mother, evil sister-in-law, m/f besties dating behind your back, unplanned pregnancy after a one night stand you can't forget..at least there's no time travel or malevolent spirits.
Glad I didn't expect much. At least I'm not too disappointed l

CHANGED THE SOUCE MATERIAL
writing my first review ever because this pisses me off so much, why do they have to do this with webtoon adaptations.Don't advertise the show as a Web Novel/ Webtoon adaptation and change the souce material completely.
The whole point of the webtoon/webnovel is that she is a teacher and she gets pregnant.

100 ways to ruin a good story!!!
Ughh, I'm so frustrated. I read the whole manhwa and was soooo excited for this one to air. But they ruined everything.Cast all wishy washy old actors who should act as mother and father of the lead. And the storyline, they changed it. Like the FLs being a teacher was such a major plot, and they removed it.
DON'T RECOMMEND!! DON'T WATCH!!
