Pleasant simple story for tired evening

To enjoy this series, watch it in the moment you need to just switch off and relax. It is sweet fluff, it sometimes makes you smile and it didn't offend, didn't let strong impact.
OK, good things: it is short drama, the story is simple focused on the main couple, following almost logical order. The plot twist I am your boss and you my landlord makes some funny monents and gives the story pleasant touch.
The acting is okey (ML has few really good moments). The chemistry is sweet and cute. But their relationship develops quite slow do there are not much intimate scenes, but I didn't need them. The pranks and care are well balanced most of the time.
The characters are pretty regular and common to c dramas. But I really enjoy the fact of not "destined love" but slowly growing. The female lead is not typical and she was a bit annoying sometimes. During the second watch I realize that the worst moments don't make sence.
The worst of the series is mother of the main character, her behavior doesn't make sense and could be hold much better and simplier than the try to make her a false puppet master.
The second worst is the bad translation. The misstranslations of I/you/he/she are sometimes confusing but quite common for dramas.
My recommendation: watch it just once and don't think too much. I watch it for the second time and many holes of story starts to pop up and annoyed me.
In one word this series is like a marshmallow. Sweet, simple, nothing special but not bad.
