this is going in my BEST of 2026 List ❤️
What a highly entertaining drama – it ticked every single box: romance, comedy, office politics, drama, relationships, chaebol conflicts, exes drama, hilarious supporting characters, suspense, family, and friendships – all executed perfectly! The highlights were the sizzling chemistry of the leads as they went from enemies to lovers, their impeccable comic timing, the strong supporting cast, and the suspense woven into the office affairs and beyond. After a long time in 2026, I finally had a drama that made me comment and share theories every week on MDL, eagerly waiting for the weekend episodes.
The only reason it missed the "masterpiece 10/10" score was the final 2 eps. It wasn’t bad – in fact, it was fitting – but because it leaned on a serious note, the earlier excitement and pace dulled just a bit. Still, overall, as expected from my love Shin Hae Sun and my recent 2025 favorite Gong Myung, this is a must-watch of 2026 and beyond! Thoroughly entertaining, and I hope they keep making dramas like this.
⮩ Highlights – Special Mention:
[1] The Story: As shared above, it had everything you’d want from this genre and more. Never boring, always engaging, with suspense that made it perfect for binge-watching. I especially appreciated the mature portrayal of family relationships – both broken and clingy – and the variety of romantic relationships beyond just the leads. The focus on the FL as a talented employee rising the corporate ladder despite hurdles, with a supportive partner and even his family backing her, was refreshing and much needed, especially since the glass ceiling IRL is still tough.
[2] The Acting: The leads are some of my favorite actors, which is why I started the drama, knowing they wouldn’t disappoint – and they didn’t. They were incredible. But the second leads and supporting cast (Audit Team 3) were equally great and kept pace with the mains. Even the antagonist and cameo roles were well done. This show truly had the best "CAST" hands down!
[3] The Chemistry: Absolute fire from Episode 1. The scenes were literally too hot to handle. This drama had me going "OMO! OMO! OMO!" countless times, kicking my feet and feeling all tingly with the infinite butterflies it gave me while watching the leads.
⮩ Overall:
Must-watch of 2026 – no questions about it. Go and watch!
