Not bad, but not great

It's a decent romcom. Started out funny and light between the leads and then it got all mucky when the second leads decided to input themselves where they are not welcomed.

I thought the theme of them being the audit team for internal affairs was interesting. Very unfortunate that we barely know anything about team 3 members, all very surface level.

Great chemistry between the leads. Very golden retriever x black cat energy.
Loved that ML started to see her for who she really is before he even fell for her. FL was always isolated because people believed in rumors than actually trying to get to know her. So for someone like the ML, who was always loved (family wise and work wise) to be her safe space really spoke volumes. "To be loved is to be seen".
I also really loved the clear communication between them, very mature relationship.

For the second leads, their dynamic was lack luster. You can really feel that these two were placed here just for the office drama and to be an obstacle for the couple. The inferiority complex from these two was SCREAMING at me through the screen. Don't even get me started about how it almost felt like borderline obsession.

Plot line is very predictable and nothing surprising, so that's why it's not bad but not great. 8/10

Side note: SHS and GM looked so good in this drama!! Could not stop admiring.
