Good story with fleshed out main characters and thoughtful comedy

I have watched this twice. Once by myself and once to show my husband. What I loved about this show: Park Bo-young and Park Hyun Sik's chemistry is stellar!! They light up the screen. Gut-busting comedy without the tired traps of putting down women or talking bad about the disabled or otherwise marginalized. The romance is cute (although it kind of materializes out of thin air). What I liked: Again, I love the chemistry the whole cast carries on. So the romance, including the second male lead romance, is worth it, but it doesn’t seem to have a starting point. I won't say more than that. What I hated: how eerily perfect the depiction of terror, abduction, and sexual abuse was (the actual sexual abuse isn’t shown). It made me uneasy, but it wasn't gratuitous. I could have done without the ashram bit because it felt like filler and took up a good bit of the end half. I would re-watch a 3rd time as well and probably will. It is one of my favorites.
