So as one of the comments sort of says only in Dramaland does this count as a fluffy Romance. (@green_tokki)There's nothing new about the story as you can tell by the synopsis but that's not a problem if the cast and writers put it all together well. Contract relationship, rich man poor woman etc. etc.
On the whole from the eight episodes I watched they didn't do too badly, nothing intense, nothing special it just concentrates on the Leads relationship. Which is touted as one of it's strengths but for me it's the fatal flaw. Without any background buzz to soften it the ML's abusive behaviour just becomes unavoidable.
She's supposedly strong but apart from a couple of kicks in the shin she just gives in to everything. Unsolicited and supposedly unwanted kisses? I'll stamp on your foot but still do what you want, let you drag me around by the wrist =, barge into my house, whatever. Creepily help me make something by awkwardly sitting behind me and putting your arms around me? Fine. Drag me into restaurants, cars whatever..
Friends brother you've known for years? You can't talk to him, drags her away from him; can't call him Oppa, I nearly gagged when she was being all apologetic about forgetting and saying Oppa in the car.
She gets a bunch of flowers from a student (admittedly a young idol) and is carrying them when she sees him- without knowing anything about who gave them, he throws them in the bin and drags her off.
She dresses up after overhearing him saying how dowdy she was and all he does is panic about other men finding her attractive. No compliment, no pride in having an attractive fiance, nope, covers her up with his coat and drags her off to get changed. Tells her friend off for lending her the clothes. He likes her dowdy and unattractive to other men.
Physically aggressive, controlling, manipulative, unpleasantly jealous...What a twat! Got to the point where I disliked him so much I didn't care if he changed and just hoped she got counselling to help her stop being a victim.
I feel ashamed it took me so long to drop it.

Fluffiest drama with the best chemistry
I am writing this review after my second watch. I came back to this because the chemistry of the actors is out of this world.The story is a total cliche. And the premise for why the two get together is classic kdrama bs. What makes this drama different for me is that the main female lead isn't a complete pushover. She can sass the male lead and put him in his place, and she's the only one who can do that. I absolutely abhor cardboard female leads that are just made to be walked all over.
The couple's relationship isn't perfect, but that's what makes this so much better. The characters act reasonably, and conflicts are resolved in a reasonable amount of time, without being dragged on by uninspired writers. The fluff moments are beyond cute due to how happy the two main actors seem to be when they're together.
Overall, I would rewatch this again and again.

a bad deal for Da-heyon
I've seen a lot of K-dramas with wild finishes, but this one might be the most depressing of them all (death maybe excluding "everyone dies"). Usually in romance both characters need to grow or change in some capacity in order for them to end up together, but this was just "okay so Da-hyeon has to give up absolutely everything and in exchange Jae-in will.... be good to her when she is old" ??? How is that a reasonable exchange lol. It would almost be clever as a commentary on the idea of chaebol dramas, but I don't get the sense it was going for that. If the show admitted how absolutely bleak Da-hyeon's life is now, that would be one thing, but no.Anyway, bleak bleak stuff. It was fine otherwise, nothing special, but the conclusion was so bad.

A love story so enjoyable to watch !
No need to say too much, this is kind of modern cinderella love story : no chance this is to happen in real life !So enjoyable to watch, every girl would like to have such a handsome boyfriend even though he seems not to know that a girl is not just an object or a toy you can control as you like ! The guy is a jerk but he finally tuns out to be so considerate... I didn't like him that much at the beginning, but I just loved the couple relationship.
Very nice actor's chemistry and many everlasting hot kisses make you share and feel their love ! I was just thrilled and hooked on this couple.
I enjoyed this K-drama very much. Please yourself and watch it !

What a lovely romance!
Start out with a contract relationship, hate at first sight, misunderstandings, a cold man and a soft-spoken woman, and you think it's going to be like every other Asian show you've ever seen. You'd be wrong. This is one of the few shows that I've seen that I revisit time and time again.Ha Seok Jin plays Jae In, the typical cold, work-obsessed corporate man. The hair and makeup department did an excellent job with his transformation throughout the show. He starts out complete starched, his hair is perfect and highlights his always austere expression. Over time, his look relaxes and I loved seeing that.
Jun So Min plays DaDa, the elementary school teacher. She wears the non-stylish, comfortable clothes required for working with little kids all day. She's somewhat mousy, and at first glance you think she's going to be a doormat. You will have that impression corrected very quickly. She does not suffer fools gladly.
The story of how these polar opposites meet and become involved is wonderful, in my opinion. DaDa doesn't let Jae In get away with anything, which is funny to watch, because he's used to always being in control. These two have wonderful chemistry together and this show has some of the best kissing scenes out there! There's nothing earth changing here, just a terrific show, that I think you'll be glad you watched.

The actors are great. I like how the story is very light, perfect when you just want to chill after a long day from school or work. There's also this tingly sensation caused by the protagonists that would make you want to go into a relationship as soon as possible.
Overall, it's a good drama to watch. Try it!

It started strong but ended weak.
The drama started really good. The female main character actually had a backbone and gave as good as she took. The two leads had chemistry and their relationship development was actually believable without too much crazy on it. Sadly the drama took a turn for the worse in the last few episodes, with some craziness being thrown in out of the blue and unnecessary situations happening. The last few episodes were just so-so. I would recommend watching it, not a master piece but definitely entertaining.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

100% recommended
One reviewer wrote this is a hidden gem and I absolutely agree. I can across this drama after reading an article that was listing recommended dramas. I said why not. I love it. I have watched it a few times already. Episode 5 is one of my favorite episodes. I laughed and kept repeating. Very cute couple. I have to say I didn’t like the puppy on the ledge scene. I was like how the hell did a puppy get on a 2nd story ledge?!?! That just didn’t make any sense. Just watch that scene and get back to me. Lol but I do recommend this series to anyone who is listening. Love love love this seriesEsta resenha foi útil para você?
Just the right itch
This was the itch that've been wanting, the perfect amount of cliché, corny, and cuteness. This is worth the watch, I found it enjoyable, there wasn't unnecessary misunderstandings that didn't get solved right away. The two leads have such great chemistry I forgot that I was watching a drama, the secondary characters did their jobs of me either hating them or loving them. If you're looking for something that's easy to watch, and doesn't have any unnecessary drama, cute scenes and scenes that makes you think of classic older kdrama's; this is definitely for you.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Love it
It’s really amazing how a simple story is just too adorable and one of the bests. If you are looking for a kdrama with little drama, a lot of romance, amazing kiss scenes, a strong female protagonist and a charismatic male protagonist, this is it! You need to watch this if you like things fluffy and cute.The female protagonist is really humble and kind but it’s not naive, which is the normality when a character is kind. She always speaks her mind and defends herself but is not arrogant or rude. Really different comparing with most of the female characters.
The male is the same- surprising. We expect some rude dude and we get a cute and generous guy.
The only thing that I would change is the music, really annoying in some scenes, you will understand.
I will rewatch for sure!

Oh please, this was adorable
She would be your typical sweet girl but she is not only that, she is intelligent, confident, witty and funny. He would be your typical mean CEO, but he is actually harsh but genuine, workaholic but a very kind and romantic man. Most importantly they are both extremely mature and their immaturity is only shown during rare moments of jealousy which are actualy portrayed very cutely. I rewatched it because I suddently wanted to see their first kiss once again but I didn't remember ever finishing this drama when it was ongoing. Their chemistry is seriously mind blowing. Now that I rewatched this after some years, now that I am more mature myself, I completely understand why they take certain decisions. I appreciate the witty dialogues so much.I am also completely speechless about how effortlessly sexy the ML is. He generally is that in other dramas too but here he is acting in a full on, properly mature and sensible romance which displays the range of his acting in this genre really well. I am not even fangirling when saying I am so impressed by how charming he is. I can't believe they ad-libbed so many kisses. They looked like a real life couple and sometimes it was so realistic that I felt like I was invading their privacy by listening to them talk ahah I loved loved loveeed how all the misunderstandings are solved immediately.
The ending! Perfect closure for everyone. The title is explained perfectly in the ending. It was a really short and sweet experience
