When they let you dive into the world of the characters

One of the biggest driving factors of this drama was the relatability of the characters and how every scene made me feel like I was part of their universe

The plot was simple yet heart touching. The contradicting life of two different person and how the fate of twist bind them together. It showed the world of corporate and the struggle women face there. The second half of the story held much more depth. The storyline was multi dimensional with comedy, emotion, romance as a compact set. I loved how they showed the character development of each character, especially Wine. It was subtle yet very realistic. The way they depicted the past traumas and how with each other they were able to overcome everything was so satisfying to watch. I felt content with the friendship the girls had created. I was expecting A little more banter between Lal and Wine and maybe a little more angst and the love hate relationship since it explicitly says enemies but the fluff came too soon for me. It feels so good to see GLs highlighting workplace struggle of women.

The direction was clean, not rushed or filled with unnecessary scenes to prolong the show. The set design was beautiful as if it came right from a shouju manga. They perfectly caught the slightly Japanese style the novel was aiming for with set, color-grading and style of direction. The cute little animated characters in the middle made it so narak. The stylist deserves a special applaud for the gorgeous outfit.

JanJing has insane chemistry both on and off screen. They genuinely seem to have a great bind which reflected int he drama as well. They e emotional scenes were top notch. I could feel their emotions through the screen. I wish we had more KapookCiize but even with whatever they were given they did an amazing job. Ploypach and JJ kept it light. The entire cast fir perfectly and created an amazing drama.

This was my second GL and I am highly satisfied with tit. Definitely a great watch. Give it a try and you will have a taste of everything.
