This was easily one of the best C dramas I have seen. I ended up scoring at 7.5 out of 10 on the strength of the amazing OTP. Their chemistry was authentic and truly enjoyable to watch. It felt like a natural relationship between two people who happened to have a roughly 15 year age difference between them. That gap never felt creepy, and it's probably because a lot of the time, they go into an unusual amount of the time for the often patriarchal C drama, the relationship was depicted as one of genuine peers. The young female leads willingness to mock her boyfriend in good humour by teasing him with ads for health products aimed at senior citizens was an example of the way the drama didn't hide from the age gap but did not make it central.

The OTP was so strong it carried me through the one significant problem I had with the drama, which is simply that it was four episodes too long. Had this been 20 instead of 24, I probably would have scored at 8.5 or 9 because especially the first 10 episodes were just outstanding. It revived my faith in the entertainment potential of C dramas and confirmed that Romcom tropes can still work with the right combination of cast writing performance and chemistry. This kitchen based romcom had all the right ingredients and blended them to perfection. It was just a touch overdone.
