It was Okay. Better direction with the female lead was needed.

Pretty good for a Jdrama and DORI. However, the FL made me want to drop the series at every turn. Thank goodness it was short. The deer in headlights and not looking him in his eyes was a bit much. What was the struggle in having self-awareness?
Some reviews state that the MLs 'affection' for the FL wasn't explained but it was from the 'trial product' meeting to his creation of a whole cafe that resembled her hometown. Even the supporting characters commented on how much he was changing due to Risa. However, she acted more like a freshman in high school instead of college. Why did the writers feel the need not to allow her to get a little better within herself after each situation? How in the world are you with the ML almost every other day at his home and can't call him by his name? There could have been better direction with the female lead as far as eye movement and non-verbal communication and reactions. The production of the last scene was so 'high school' and laughable. This is how we celebrate a CEO getting married? They would have done better ending it all at the church where he proposed. Ugh.... This could have been so much better.
