What a refreshing and light-hearted drama series! Honestly, it surpassed my expectations and proved once again how you can't judge a tv show based on the written plot.

Personally, I started watching this for 2 main reasons. First of all, Seo In Guk is the male lead and he definitely played a completely different character than usual. Second, this drama had a very high rating in the romance category. However, it was not as good as suggested but not as shabby as described in the storyline. If I had to describe the drama in short terms, I'd say that this is a "filler drama". You know, it's one of those daily dramas that you watch as you're waiting for an epic drama to drop. Yes, it's filled with many cliches that are known to the every Kdrama fan's core. Yes, the whole story and characters seem absurd and unrealistic. But we shouldn't forget that this was made for entertainment purposes and we shouldn't judge it so harshly. To be clear, this had sad scenes as well as amazing comedy and fluffy romance scenes - a bit of everything to create an unforgettable drama. The actors did an amazing job as well. So many recognizable faces too like Nam Ji Hyun, Uhm Hyo Sub. Just as I mentioned before, it was super weird seeing Seo In Guk turning into a complete scatterbrain, but it weirdly fit him. Nothing special about the OST nor have I found anything to add about rewatch the series. There are just so many episodes and in my opinion, the last couple of episodes were completely unnecessary, so I started losing interest at the end.

All in all, if you're a fan of good acting and light romcom series, this drama is definitely for you!
