"This show knew what it wanted to be (fluffy, light, and still enjoyable) - and didn't try to be anything more than that."
In short, I loved it.

In all honesty, I did not really think much of this drama at first. The story itself is rather simple, revolving around a contractual relationship and the people involved in this, nothing that has not been done before. Furthermore, the plot is driven (mostly) by the two main characters and their relationship, as well as the difficulties they have to solve in their relationship, rather than a grand external plot. Usually, I am wary of dramas that start off with this premise since the main characters often get stuck fighting over unrealistic or plain stupid things, especially if the couple consists of people from very different parts of society.

However, I am always a sucker for romance, and that was something this drama, and the reviews of it, promised. And I was not left disappointed. The two main characters fit their admittedly (very) stereotypical roles in the first few episodes, but it quickly became apparent that things were not going to keep being this way. It was nice watching both of the two, very stubborn, characters adapt to each other while they got to know each other. Of course, problems arose as the story progressed, but those were dealt with and we, the viewers, got to see the relationship between the two leads get stronger in return.
Of course, this show is a romantic drama and thus that is where most of the focus lies, had I started watching this show on the premise of getting thrilling action scenes and a deep tragic backstory, I would have been gravely disappointed. The story is simple, but it seems the writers knew that and for once they did not try to make it into something that it is not. The story achieves what it sets out to do, and that is to deliver a fluffy romance between two, seemingly, incompatible leads. All in all, this leads to quite a few quarrels between the leads but it seems that for every quarrel there is a solution and two heartwarmingly fluffy scenes to make up for it. There has to be some suspense after all.

Plot structure and episodes
Again the story knew what it wanted to be and did not try to be anything else, which was refreshing.
This show is definitely one you could binge without getting too bored of it. It didn't feel too dragged out at any points. Something that is most likely because the conflicts weren't dragged out for unrealistic amounts of time, but I digress. The episodes had a nice length, yo?u could easily watch one and come back to it later, and the storyline felt evenly distributed.

Characters
The main characters did a great job portraying their roles and they had great chemistry together. Most of the memorable moments were between them but the story would not have been complete without the supporting characters. They made the small moments between the main leads stand out even more but kept themselves interesting separately as well.
