Great trios, ok pairs but not so mismatched after all

This is yet another about another orphaned and traumatised cold CEO who falls in love with a bubbly less rich girl... This time the girl is a country girl, who knows martial arts but acts more like the little mermaid than a grown human being... Which kind of bothered me at times. And had me annoyed the first few episodes. However with time she grew on me and felt more human. The main leads story had very little to offer, including lack of process... mediocre chemistry but a bunch of back hugs and scenes on bridges. That said we did get a bunch of cliches (I love cliches) and stuff that made 0 sense. So this is defiantly a turn off your brain watch.

What I loved was the brother/cousin trio, their interactions where 90% gold but 10 oh come on... why did you have to go that way... lowering the score for this otherwise 10/10 trio. The secretary triplets are also a a lot of fun and so is the grandfather.

The second couple was a lot more lovable, interesting and made more sense than the first couple. These two actually mention the word consent and have a flirting push and pull period, agin packed with cliches but done fun. Giving us the rare experience of seen supporting characters that are great together and great characters regardless of their love interest. Had they switched stories with the mains this could easily have been a 9 star drama.

What bothered me the most was how they show country people it feels extremely off, noisy and dare I say stereotypical 9/10 scenes. The next thing to bother me was the infused unnecessary drama the last 3 episodes or so that felt both under developed and both ruined an otherwise lovely character (though there where warning signs) and added 0 to the plot.

All in all an ok watch, easy to binge, beautiful scenery, a few fun lines here and there and gif-worthy but not much more.
