What a portrayal of a realistic relationship
Having rewatched the series I stand firm in my belief that Joo In Ah and Noh Ki Jun are the most perfect office couple, next to Love Scout's lovey doveys. They felt so real that I could easily picture them inhabiting the same world as I.Now the Audit team 3 functions as a chorus in an ancient greek play, complimenting but never overshadowing the main plot. They are a delight, all different yet similar at the same time. The most weak character of all is the 2ML IMO. He 's always late. And not "better late than sorry". He is the epitome of "too little, too late". He's so weak that at the end he gives the 2FL a redemption choice, which comes off as pity. Thank God the 2FL learnt her lesson, and in an ironic twist of fate, shows more maturity than him and never calls him. The 2FL got a lot of hate during airing, but she is actually really fleshed out. She is every delusional in love person who'd rather see her lover burn that accept defeat. And yet! She is the voice of logic. Yes, she is reason to the 2ML's crazy. She is always reminding him of the futility of his obsession, of the honour of his position, of the responsibility of his actions, of how illogically he behaves. In a very twisted turn of events, she is his conscience, voicing reality loud and clear, while all he does is give in to his self wallowing. "Pity me the rich boy who now has to pay the consequences of his actions". Having said that, the story gets a 9,5 bc l 'd have loved more episodes or a spinoff where the 2ML gets some spank drilled into him by his equally tortured and torturing ex wife. I really wanted to see their fractured selves somehow fall in love.
