Things I loved

1 The remise I thought it'd be great and I loved the first few episodes. Unlike others I love series with a business setting and I was interested seeing the main couple in their work environment.

2 The ML.I think he's gorgeous and a decent actor. That said, this was my first series with him, and I have no idea if he was good only in this one.

Things I liked

1 The proposal scene. it was cute and a bit original. That's all the good I have to say about the romance. Mature romance shouldn't mean no romantic scenes, no decent kisses, no over the top declarations. This was lacking on every romantic aspect.

Things I disliked

1 The lack of chemistry. I'm surprised everyone talks about their chemistry. I didn't feel the same way at all. I had a small hope at first when the met, that it fizzled out very soon. They were better friends than couple. I have no idea what the issue was. Maybe the fact that they are very few cute, romantic scenes. I understand that this wasn't the usual cute romance, but romance implies romantic moments and I didn't feel most of them if any. It tried too hard to be witty and it ruined the whole romance thing.

2 The FL. At first I thought she was gorgeous and a decent actress. In the end, I thought she was a mediocre actress and the weird way she scrunched her face trying to play cute was distracting and not in a good way. To be honest, I had the impression that she was different from episode to episode. Very weird. Anyway, I thought she was quite conscious that she was acting and that didn't work for me.

Things I hated

1 The 2FL. I didn't care about her life at all and I wish she didn't take so much time with her stupid stories.

2 The character of the FL. Yes I'll put this in a different item because I thought she was a spineless, stupid pushover and I hate that. No reason to let anyone walk over her and that was so frustrating I started hating her. be a strong woman who can stand for herself. How can you be at your age that stupid mess? That coming from someone who isn't known for being assertive, but even I wouldn't accept being such a doormat. Did she change? Not in my opinion. I guess others disagree.
