Lovely, happy, bubbly show about the struggles of a woman trying to get back to work after a career break. It's also beautifully poetic.
All the characters are good people at heart, doing the best they can in their lives. They are respectful and supportive that you can't really fault them. Life is hard. But from Lee Na-young's character we know we can be Walking on Sunshine with just a little bit of hope.
Lee Jong-suk is charming as ever as the male lead but male lead is actually a supporting character and he supports her without reservations, even when she marries/dates someone else, never imposing or possessive. The second male lead is also similarly respectful. Such healthy relationships are rarely portrayed in media.
Regardless of the title and my emphasis on the male characters, romance is only a component of the story. Much of it is around how judgemental and daunting it can be when your skills are considered obsolete in a fast-moving world.
