Bright, Light, Humorous & Silly. (I'm enjoying it)

Ep 1: The poster & the name of the drama brought me in, I didn't think I would end up liking any part of it. Thought, it would be like Midnight Romance in Hagwon, but the first 5 mins of the episode were so hilarious. I hoped that the woman who was pestering our ML wasn't the FL but a supporting character. This just has me intrigued as in where is this going. By the end of the episode we still haven't connected the first scene to any of what's going on. It could be a future event or it could be just a dream she had in a future. Wow, what a rollercoaster of a ride. The guy we thought she was dating was actually two-timing her and when she finds out, he acts all high and mighty calling her a backup & a fake. Yup we have 1 disgusting character right here. But still, I didn't much care for how the FL was trying to go after the woman he was two-timing with instead of the two-timer. Him she was too lenient with, especially with how rude he was to her later on.

Ep 2: Lee Yoo Young, the actress portraying Kim Hong Do has such beautiful eyes. She is lovely, but this role doesn't suit her. I can picture in her in an all leather outfit doing something badass. In my opinion, she was miscast, apart from few cutesy scenes her portrayal seems kinda flat. Someone like Park Bo Young would have been a better choice. Coming to the character, she should have quit working at that place a long time ago. While all workplaces have their own issues, you still need to be able to depend on just one person to back you up. Things are going all wrong for her, from her superior copying her design to her childish cringy ex trying to frame her, it was ridiculous to watch. I liked 1st episode better. The thing where she didn't even realize that he was pretending to have not seen her was just too hard to believe. While I may not have liked this episode that much, I'm going to continue watching because I still have hope for this drama.

Ep 3: It was better than episode 2nd but not because everyone at her workplace suddenly grew a conscience. The gaslighting ex and his gf who stole her idea were just horrible, let's not even talk about higher ups who enabled them. They all deserve each other. It was kinda comedic when the designer Camille showed up suddenly to hire Hong Do, but I figured it was time something went right for Hong Do. The rest of the episode was a teacher taking care of her student, some of which funny as well.

But the drama was fun to watch.
