Props to the team behind this show

It's not very often that you see a show that depict a specific idea without butchering it.

As a developer I appreciate the details in this show... why... because it seemed that they actually hired a developer for the show and discussed the terminology and functionality of a lot of the items discussed in the show. While not everything was correct a lot of times it actually made some sense, that is if we compare it to the god awful shows about musical instruments that doesn't even meet the beat not mentioned the correct notes.

As for the show we have the basic ingredients for a standard romantic drama:

* love triangle
* misunderstanding
* tragic plot

That said the story was interesting and enjoyable to watch. Some of the plots were a little to large for their own good but it was a nice balance.

The show was like watching 16 movies one after another, since each episode was around 80minutes... and it seemed that there is no end to each one but in a good way. That said maybe if they decreased the episode count a little it would have been better, since by the end they almost revealed everything and I was starting to wonder what would they show for the last 2-3 episodes.

While I wanted a different conclusion to the love triangle I was OK with the culmination nonetheless.

There were a little too many product placement in a lot of the scenes that the camera specifically panned to a specific product that it became a little too annoying... there are so many times I can see how can a desk go up and down, no need to double take the same scene twice each time.

The actors play was really well done and the music fit the show.

So if you are looking for a wholesome show to relax to, give this one a try.
