This show hit a lot of spots for me drama wise (especially that scene at the end of ep 2 like damn) but I also found it extremely problematic and hard to watch at times. I ended up flat out skipping through scenes because I just didn't care. This happened the most with scenes featuring the parents of any of the main characters. I just found them forced and boring. I ended up doing that with almost any scenes featuring Nam Ha Jin (Sung Joon) towards the end, too.  Not because of the actor but because the dialogue was cringy and boring.

Han Yeo Reum needed to make up her goddamn mind. I'm honestly glad for how it ended. I think if it had gone differently I would have given this drama a much lower rating. I'm not here for cheating on your SO stories which is essentially what this was. She cheated on Nam Ha Jin emotionally when Kang Tae Ha reappeared in her life.

For me the acting was pretty good. But I'm probably biased. I am Eric trash. I will watch anything he's in honestly. Sung Joon has improved since Flower Boy Band where I found him completely unwatchable. Jung Yoo Mi was cute and believable.

The music wasn't awful but it also wasn't great. I'd describe it as forgettable honestly. And I would never consider rewatching this drama. Maybe a scene or two but never the whole thing again.
