Lovely story about falling in love and overcoming life challenges. Fresh writing well executed!
I love this Kdrama. The script and directing are executed much better than the typical Kdrama. My typical pet peeve of misunderstandings that get dragged on and on was well managed. This feels like it almost fits the slice of life genre with a bit more drama which is why some reviewers feel the show was pointless. This show is an exploration of everyday life problems and how these people navigate them.
Execution by actors nicely done. Unlike other people, this was my first time seeing the Female lead so her previous work did not make it hard for me to believe the dorky image. The leads had chemistry and I loved seeing the characters grow on screen. Why they fell in love is totally believable and actually pretty realistic. Most things make sense.
The 0.5 marks come off from sometimes making the weightlifters too cartoonish. I didn't think that was necessary for us to get the point that they are dorky not typically associated with beauty. There were also some unexplained loose ends. How did Sun-Ok manage to come back to school? I didn't really understand what happened to Jun-Hyuk's career in his last two years of college.
