Let me acknowledge that I do not normally watch modern dramas, no matter who makes them. Let me also acknowledge that my best friend kept telling me it was very good show so I gave it a chance.

I think that the show was unique in its delivery of a plot around video games. This resonated with me, the viewer, because I play video games and I play them a lot. I enjoyed the in-world experience because it resonated with my love of historical dramas and fantasy. I liked that the story was about two people who loved one another unconditionally, and I liked how the male lead was so supportive.

The story is very sweet, with little conflict. It is more about how two people meet and fall in love. Because there were no conflicts or character growth, because both characters were so great, I lost interest in it. As a result, I would not re watch it and I would recommend it to people who prefer light love stories with a lot of fluff. There were no family problems in this show, nothing. It was just the natural growth of a healthy relationship. I would not compare it to Boss and Me because there is a ton more character growth and conflicts that they go through. But it has the same tone of two people who love one another unconditionally. And both leads respect one another. No one is encountering a mean or cruel partner, no one is trying to hurt the other in petty ways because of petty misunderstandings. I gave it an 8 because Love 020 was a great drama and delivers on what it promises. It just isn't my type. I try not to be biased. An example of another show that wasn't my type but I gave a low rating, for context, was Perfect Couple because I think that the drama was confused about what story it was trying to tell and it failed in what it delivered.
