I chose this drama purely to see Seo In Guk in another romance. Although the premise is quite unbelievable, I was able to suspend disbelief in order to fully enjoy this drama. Lee Ha Na did a great job playing Jung Soo Young also. And the secondary characters were also enjoyable. The 2 main leads had a good chemistry and pulled off a wildly unrealistic romance that made it seem more believable and real as a viewer than it should have. I wasn't sure how they'd handle such a large age difference and I normally wouldn't go for a "noona romance", but they made it work somehow. I think it was because Soo Young was a naive and innocent character. I felt for the 2nd male lead at times, because it really came through that he wasn't totally as cold as he appeared. While I could not picture him romantically with Soo Young. I thought they would make good friends. And he needed one so desperately. My main issue was that the last episode felt very rushed and I wish that they had taken maybe one more episode to really finish it out better or had cut something else to devote more time to the ending. But overall it was an enjoyable drama and I would watch it again.
