Could have been great but something is off...

Some declared this feminist, but I do not really see it, but it does get points for effort... Showing some of the hardships many women do face from different angels as well as showing how these very different personalities come together and overcome sexual harassment, objectification, discrimination in the workplace and a bunch of other stuff... And while they do attempt to show that you do not need a man to be complete 90% of the conversation is about men so I actually doubt this female centered feminist plot would actually pass the Bechdel test... There is also a lot of cringe and situations that just feel awkward.


The characters in this drama are most of the time, fun and lovable, there is one plotline that makes way to way too much second hand embarrassment, and though they do motivate it pretty well it just feel like something I have been annoyed by before. Also making this otherwise pretty cool character very annoying at times.

The men in this drama are either complete jerks, or so sweet they will give you diabetes... and the drama does have more representation than most c-s have.

We also get to see typical C-drama parents that have a blood boiling effect... A pretty cool kid and some delicious food pictures...

The subs here are really good so extra points for that; https://www.captionfy.io/playlist/61b42e5c85aaa3748a8d7ced

All in all an okay watch that is pretty easy to binge but not really a masterpiece, and not really a feminist manifest...
