It may start off as any other drama, but as it goes on the story gets deeper and just develops so well. It can feel/be slow at times, but I think that adds to the story. For those who may get bored but want to finish the show because of friends' suggestion, watch up to ep 10. That gives you the full experience and story of the series with a great ending. The two episodes that follow are just nice packaging of the drama and closes the drama in a nice way.
Acting/Cast:

Music/OST:

Its a standard romantic comedy and doesn't stand out. This doesn't make it a terrible show just one kdrama fans have seen before
Acting/Cast:
The actors and characters are all amazing. Each character is intriguing and the actors portrayed them well. My favorite was Kim Soo, his story was very compelling and the actor Seo Jihoon does a great job
Music/ OST:
Amazing! Brilliant! The best part of the whole show! I saved the how soundtrack as soon as I finished the show. Even if you don't watch the show listen to the soundtrack is so beautiful
Overall:
I thought I'd have more to say, but really its not a terrible show nor the best.

Best Kdrama of 2019
Story:The main story line is so interesting as we dive deep into the internal workings of a search engine company. The main story line never gets boring and the side story lines and romances also give a nice break to keep the story going. The side stories of each of the main female leads are interesting and quite unique for the standard side stories in k-dramas. Even though the characters are on the older side they still send the message of youth being the time for growth and experimenting. They also touch on the ideas that life can be stressful, depressing and lonely. With the inclusion of the supporting characters' side stories they want the view to know that everyone is having a hard time and struggling in life so don't be so down on yourself, find comfort in the knowledge that others find life to be just as hard.
Acting/Cast:
The cast is amazing, the characters are all so diverse in personalities and each couple has amazing chemistry. Lee Jaewook and Ye Soojung had the strongest impact in their characters for me and stood out. Also the writing of the three female leads is amazing . The change in their relationship with each other throughout the show and their character development really allows the show to develop and proceed in the most intriguing way
Music:
I still listen to every song from this soundtrack, each song has a different message and is so beautiful. My favorite OST is Reaching Hand by Jang Beom June, his voice is amazing and the lyrics tell the listener that when you are feeling down its okay to cry. Its okay to cry until you run out of tears because tomorrow is a new day and after your done crying you'll feel better. The song encourages people accept their feels instead of ignoring them or trying to force yourself to be happy. This song is just one example of the amazing soundtrack for this series. They play this song during the sad and depressing scenes of the show which caters to the emotions of the scene but also acts as a source of comfort .
Overall:
Everyone needs to watch this show , it will change the way you look at kdrama series

The plot never gets boring after a while you don't even realized you've watch the whole series
Acting/Cast:
What do you expect from Suzy, Lee Jongsuk and Jung Haein? Only the best acting of course!!! Their characters were amazing especially Suzy, I haven't seen her in a drama in a while so I was excited and as expected Suzy delievers. Honestly this isn't my favorite Haein role, but I still enjoyed it.
Music:
Honestly I can't remember the OST, but Korean soundtrack are always the best so....
Overall:
The show was great and I definitely recommend it to anyone who's thinking of watching

Terrible plot line, it starts off good but falls through in the end. There are a bunch of plot holes that are just ignored. honestly this show just gets more boring as you watch so I had to drop it.
Acting/Cast:
I know the actors are good actors just the way they were written was terrible. There is no character development for any of the characters except Sin Hoo Ye
Music:
It is only rated like that becasue the show was terrible , but korean OSTs are always great
Overall:
Don't watch this show

I liked the story a lot, definitely a mature and difficult subject to discuss. It's slower then other dramas, but works well with this one. It perfectly shows the struggles of being an older adult especially one going against the norm. The different relationships are presented well and are just as interesting as the main plot.
Cast:
I honestly loved the cast. The characters are my favorite part of the whole drama. Each person stand out and portray the story of each character very well. The two male leads are my favorite, you can easily sympathize with both and understand both sides. I only have a problem with the female lead. Maybe it was supposed to be her character, but she seemed to wishy-washy with how she feel about the two male leads and the situation. She also took forever to solve the problems. Her sisters are both great as well, both strong and smart women that deal with thier own issues the best way they could.
Music:
The music isn't bad, it just not as great as the korean osts I'm used to. Korean osts stand out and match the emotion of the scenes so well, but theses ones were okay as you heard them more but didn't provoke the same emotions
Note:
I'm kind of torn on the random basketball scenes. I enjoyed see the male characters interacting on the court without the involvement of emotions, but scenes related to the basketball scenes were unnecessary. They would randomly has scenes just to talk about Giseok needing to reserve the gym, more than once. honestly the plot could deal without all the extra basketball scenes
