A good remake

WHAT I LIKE:

- The cute story : Two childhood lovers finding each other again in a complicated confused situation.
- The FL: She is not beautiful. She is not ugly. I liked that she was just neglecting herself as she had low confidence and she improved her looks to be committed to her work. It is not an ugly duckling turned into a swan. I like her hardworking personality which helps her become better in many aspects.
- The ML: He is cold but he is also nice and caring and funny at times. And he can smile.
- The SFL: She was a bit annoying in the confusion but I found her very human in how she did not managed well the situation.
- The pace of the drama: Everything happens quite fast. It is not draggy.
- The fun: There is quite a goofy tone to it. Mostly done by the acting. I am not sure it is intentional but in the company, they were all over reacting to echo to Sato Ai's goofy side. Even the ML .

WHAT I DID NOT LIKE:

- The SML: I found him too much of a rich spoiled kid working to kill the time and do pranks. He tried to woo a woman who is older than him in a very "teen" way. I found the final twist with him not very credible. He put a mask on and expected a woman to love him for who he is? Weird.
- The colleagues are support roles only. They don't have any depth. Only a few ones have a quick development in the last ep.
- The ending: too many use of time jump. It made the ending look rushed. Cute happy ending but kind of flat.

OST:
I liked it. It gave a punchy and fun vibe to the drama.

REWATCH VALUE: 8.

OVERALL: 8.5/10. It is a good drama to watch. The story is cute. The main leads are endearing as kids and adults. And it is fast paced. I watched and dropped the corean and chinese version. So I can only recommend this one.
