Amazing show with some big and sad problem..

I love kdrama and I got into it because of these type of funny and heartwarming shows like this.
However, as someone of color. I was sad do see how they have a fake black Korean that had all bad steorypes.
They even called him monkey once. Pretty wild.
I honestly wouldn't have any issues with him having fake black skin/Black makeup if the character had depth and had a good story.
They went out of their way to tell us he's full blown Korean, not black lol.
Other than that. The whole cast is great.
The leads specially KYJ. She's so beautiful and charming. Hope to watch more of her stuff.
The actor is also amazing. His acting is amazing.
The ending felt really rushed sadly.
One character did something really bad by basically cheated but that never brought up.
Season 2 seems to be confirmed.
Hopefully there are kisses in new seasons, less problematic stories. lol.
Other than that. I will still rate it well.
