A Solid Romcom!

So I feel like this drama has gotten so much love but also a lot of criticism, which I think is fair. It's a solid romcom with great leads but some questionable writing. The first like 4 or 5 episodes of this dramas was like a solid 9 or even 9.5, however that special magic did kinda disappear as the show went on. The highlight of this show is easily the chemistry between the main leads, and that does kinda carry the show. Kinda surprised we haven't seen theses two in a drama together earlier. I also enjoyed the second couple.

Now what this show lacks is mostly in the writing, its sloppy at times and certain things happens that are obviously there just to built up a conflict (even if it doesn't make sense). Also the mom is straight-up awful, like seriously.

Overall, I think this is a solid romcom. It doesn't bring anything new to the table, but I still enjoyed watching it for what it is.
