Many people would disagree but I loved this drama. I'm sad that it has such low ratings but I do understand and agree with most of the negative reviews. I almost didn't watch this drama due to its bad reviews but I am so glad I did. When I watched the first episode, I knew there was no turning back. The romance starts right from the start. I love fast-paced romance drama because there are no confusions or huge misunderstandings among the characters.
Story: I do agree that the story dragged out from around episode 20-30 and that they probably could have made it only 30 episodes long. But the reason why I still gave the story 8.5/10 because of it's fast paced romance and really realistic story plot. I also loved how the writer tied up the end very nicely.
Acting/Cast: UGH I love Yang Se Jong and Seo Hyun Jin together! There chemistry was so good and so believable. I know that some people disagree but I thought they did really good at creating a romantic atmosphere. Even though Yang Se Jong is only a new actor, his acting was on point. All the facial expressions were so cute (including Seo Hyun Jin's).
Music: Some people didn't like the elevator music but I love it. I think it sets the mood for a lot of the kitchen scenes. Also the original soundtracks are so light and lovely to listen to. 10/10
Rewatch value: I am already rewatching this drama for the third time. Because of the really realistic aspect of the story line and well crafted conversations, I enjoy rewatching the drama over again. Some dramas that I loved like My Secret Romance and Strong Woman Do Bong Soon were hard to rewatch because cliche stories are kind of pointless to rewatch because you already know what is going to happen (in My Secret Romance) and also because I hate scary and violent stuff, I can't rewatch Strong Woman Do Bong Soon but I still rewatch the non scary cute romance scenes on youtube.

This was my first korean movie ever so I can't judge if this is like a must see korean movie but it completely exceeded my super high expectations. I love Park Bo Young, so I did expect a lot from her. She is seriously the best actress out there. Her and Kim Young Kwang's chemistry was so cute and realistic. Though I do admit I was disappointed by the ending because no one likes sad endings to romance movies. I think they could have made the main characters end up together but I wonder why the writer decided not to. I think there was only one original soundtrack to this movie and it is sung by Park Bo Young herself! It is so relaxing and beautiful. I listened to it on repeat. This movie's story plot made me feel all the feels. I laughed like crazy at some parts, and wanted to cry towards the end. Just please watch it. It is not a waste of your time (like some people are saying). You'll thank me later.

Don't be hazed by the many negative reviews in the comments. I don't get all the hate for this drama and the low rating. This drama like Go Back Couple was short, but super effective in conveying the message. I love this drama to pieces. This is my first time seeing a lot of actors in this drama but they are so great! I don't understand why these actors aren't getting more lead roles in dramas but they should! The chemistry between Kang Yeol and Kang Yeo Doon was everything!!! I seriously loved them together. Though I had SLS for Seo Ha Joon (my poor Ji Soo!) BUT you can't beat Kang Yeol. Like the way he smiles and looks at Kang Yeo Doon was like seriously so cute. Anyways, just watch this drama. The osts are also so bubbly and relaxing to listen to. The only reason why I gave this drama a 9.5 instead of a 10 is because I have watched so many good dramas that I am picky about which dramas I give a 10 to. But this drama is so good so just watch it. I promise you, you won't regret it. Was this review helpful to you?
