The rating of the show didn’t make any sense because the story was absolutely amazing. If you enjoy romcoms but fed up with same corny romances then this show is for you. It’s heartfelt, emotional and funny.

The unique bond between FL’s grandma and the orphan boy filled my heart with joy. One of my favourite scene is when Mr. Han gets heartbroken over dalmi, grandma visited him, hugged and consoled him.. that scene teared me up. Grandma was the only one who cared that he was hurting and went to him to see how he was doing.
The samsan tech boys and their friendship survived through thick and thin and it was a treat to watch them succeed . The rivalry between two sisters and their hidden care for each other made you realise that blood is thicker than water. It was all these bonds that made the show soo special. Mostly romcoms circle around only the relationship between the lead couples but startup explores soo many bonds along with the main couple.

As for the love triangle, realistically will a pen pal from 15 years ago, whom you’ve never met or seen will carry more value or someone who is in front of you? Obviously what is real will prevail, even though the relationship between Do san and Dalmi started as a lie but it became real as he was standing in front of her and admitting his feelings to her. Unlike Mr Han who disappeared and never looked back even once and still hesitated to own up to the letters. It makes sense why dalmi fell for Do san. I do feel bad for Mr. Han but he realised his feelings for Dalmi too late. Call it bad luck or his hesitation but he lost dalmi pretty early in the plot. I wish he had another love interest so we wouldn’t feel so bad for him. He was good boy indeed. Yet I don’t see anything wrong with dalmi choosing Nam do san.
It was a very interesting drama.
