Not enough house helpign

The drama started off surprisingly better than I thought. It felt more deeper as well. I like the idea of a house helper and choosing the ML to be the role of it. The drama was good until the second half where I lost interest due to not much happening and too fluffy.

The drama becomes too romance focused with the amount of couples that are paired up together by the end. It doesn't help that there was a lack of chemistry and story for me to enjoy the romance of the ML and FL.

My big issue was the lack of house helping scenes in the second half. Even in the first half of the drama I felt there wasn't enough too. They just focused on the ML's past, putting the ML and FL together, and the side characters over the house helping businesses. The house helping part attracted me and without it, this felt like a typical slice of life light heart romance drama with no spark. The one supporting character I liked(Mr. Go - cafe owner) just barely got backstory of him towards the end.

The house helping aspect is something I could see being done better if it was made into a Japanese drama. I would have perfer if they done it in the format of "guest per week" where each episode he cleans a that guests house along with dealing with that guests issue that connects to him cleaning. Like delivering a life lesson at the end to that guest. I really hated how they just made the ML basically be the maid to the home of the 3 woman and said there's your house helping scenes instead of seeing him clean other people's homes and help them.

In short, romance being in this drama ruined it for me especially with the amount of couples being made to give focus to. Not enough exploration on the house helping stuff. I have to mention the dog in this show I loved so much that it boosted my score of this drama a bit. I'd rewatch the show for that dog and the first half
