UPDATED OPINION: The epic bromance and the EPIC hotness of Seo Yeol (Lee Jun Ho) made me give this show 10/10. Watch it, you won't regret it seriously.
Seo Kang Joon blessed us by being born on this planet tbh. Man looks hot enough for it to be UNREAL 100% of the time. And he's great at acting, and has a great voice, and those eyes, god DAMN.
I guess it's a difference of opinion then, it felt pretty natural to me! And he didn't go from bully to not, he went from arrogant and angry to peaceful and wise acc to me.
It's not just the actor, but also the growth potential that I saw in the character. If at such a young age he can change his ways and mend his relationship with his father too in the process, than that's much more attractive to me, instead of a one-dimensional character who's more secretive and appears more clever (in a bad way) to me. But anyway, your last sentence tells me I shouldn't continue beyond this.
The one and only reason I saw this in its entirety was because of Lee Jun Ho. My man looks FIRE in each and every single attire he had on. So handsome. And good acting! I skipped all the scenes after ep 8, and saw only the scenes with him, and I don't regret it. The story could've been adjusted in 10-12 episodes easily, and I'm surprised on the high rating it has. I think a 7.6 would suit this show better. And the female lead was annoying as fuck. BUT the main issue I think this drama had was the lack of interest in the 'sidekick' office group. I think side characters can sometimes make or break a show, and in this case, they broke it. All the male leads did a great job acting wise, and comedy wise too, the two male leads had good chemistry/bromance.
Ha Joon's char liked Ga Jun because of his niece and In Youp's char bullied Si A's brother sooo... (ISTG if I…
'Ha Joon's char liked Ga Jun because of his niece' ??? That doesn't make sense, she never interacted with his niece until AFTER he started liking her. And anyway, my comment isn't meant to indicate that he should've got the girl, obviously that's not true because she always loved Dae Young. Rather that he should've found someone else instead of being fixated on Da Jung till almost the very end. As for the sister, I can understand not giving your brother's bully a chance, but again, my boy should've found someone willing to look past his past bad behaviour and focus on his growth, because tbh bully or not, his character was 100% more likeable than the actual guy the daughter ended up with. There was no need for him to also have a story where he ended up fixating on the girl who was never gonna be with him. It's more of a cliche kdrama script-writing issue, than a specific story issue.
I'd say that what happened in the show was actually cliched, of the bully falling for the girl and then her rejecting him. So, no, unless the bully was the one the girl has some weird childhood connection with, there's hardly any kdrama with the girl ending up with the bully after he changes his ways and becomes a better person. The girl almost always ends up with the 'main lead', aka the guy who ends up 'saving' her. The bully is placed there usually for some second lead syndrome acc to me. If you do know of any drama where it happens though, please let me know.

But Lee Jun Ho is gorgeous too, of course.
