One of the things that I love about this drama is how satisfying equal their relationship is. While the male lead is pretty rich, his lady is never overawed by it, and he doesn't use his wealth to overwhelm her either. And I can't say just how satisfying to watch a drama with leads who seem to genuinely like AND LUST after each other. Trust me, you won't find any fish kisses or pained expressions in these kiss scenes [Heirs I'm looking at you] I never understood why so many female leads in korean dramas look as though they are just enduring the kisses. It's a real buzz killer, one that is thankfully absent in this drama. Overall I highly recommend this one if you are looking for a sweet, cute love story with great rewatch value

Story:-
Story is well crafted and well paced, their is no dull moment or unbearable moment in story. Story is all about how hate transforms to affection and then to love.
Characters:- Characters are lovable with good logic behing their actions and acting done by cast was great.
Music:- No standout music tracks but its not bad either, it is background music and it serves its purpose.
Overall a lightweight romance show filled with lovable moments and has great logic and hold together itself well. Recomended for beginners, still veterans can enjoy it as a break.

One of my favorite parts of this drama is that the female lead is a strong character. She stands up for herself and for others and doesn't back down in front of the male lead. Plus both the leads grow and change throughout the story and I appreciate that it's not just one of them. He changes the most, but she does a bit as well.
If you want to watch a fun drama with excellent acting and a story that contains several twists, but will leave you with a smile on your face, this might be just the one you want to watch.

Just a romcom <3
This is a rather old drama and I ended up watching this probably because i have watched all recent romcoms that seemed interesting. For this reason alone, i wasn't expecting it to be interesting as such.Some might say that this plot is rather common, so much so that it might as well be a cliche. But it was well written, even if it was predictable. I know this line of work depends on creativity but there is so much more to it, and new ideas don't come popping for every new drama so I usually just look for the enjoy-ability of the shows rather than trying to nitpick on originality. It was well put together. It was adorable, fluffy and something you can watch during a break- just like some of us like to re-watch old shows even though we know the whole plot.
All characters were enjoyable and no-one too "evil". I particularly dote on characters because they ARE the plot, more so than the contextual story. All characters seemed very sensible and relatable. None of them were just up in the air, they made it make sense and they made it seem like a short vacation trip. I like sensible and sweet characters, all in their own.
All characters have proper personalities, values and people they care about. None of them seem like fill-in or unrealistic pushovers.
The relationships all have their conflicts and then reasonable resolution within appropriate amount of time and with sense.
None of them are portrayed as anywhere near perfect or other-worldly kind-nice-angelic, all of them have their self-esteem and respect themselves.
Romcoms- kissing. Kiss scenes! A bunch of them! This is what I what i live for.
The acting was pretty good for most actors, I found some of them slipping a few times but honestly I'm not here to evaluate their work and rank their performances- it wasn't such that it would really bug you, the slips were okay and easily overlook-able.
Overall, I'd say that the drama isn't intriguing or with suspense but it is just what i look for in my "i need more romcoms I NEED FLUFF". It isn't cringe in the least, at least for me- probably because cringe and adorable often overlap for me. I gave it 9.5 because it serves what it promised- romance and comedy

Lots of Issues
Dear gentle reader, I pretty much hated it. Let me count the ways.❤ I will never take sound production for granted again. I could hear almost every little rustle coming from the actors moving around the set or the noise generated from an outdoor scene. And, my god, the cicadas were incredibly loud in the outside shots. I don't mind a certain amount of background noise as I think it makes scenes feel more real than fiction, but it took me completely out of the narrative to be trying to hear the actors over all of the other noise.
❤ I wasn't a fan of the OST. While the tunes were lighthearted and happy, I didn't fell like they reflected the show for some reason. The show is pretty lighthearted so I'm not sure why the songs didn't click, but they didn't.
❤ The side characters were one-dimensional with little making them integral to the story. I also felt like some of the performances were lacking. However, perhaps they were lacking because they were given so very little depth and breadth. The only side character I absolutely adored was Hyeon Jin. Give me a fierce best friend any day of the week! I wish her and her later love interest would have been given more screen time and character development.
❤ This show would have benefited from a shorter number of episodes. My number one pet peeve is when shows insert entire scenes or clips from previous episodes to pad out current episodes. This had so much padding, particularly episode 8 (with 15 minutes of a montage sequence featuring the main couple in a 40 minutes episode). Perhaps if I had loved the characters more this would not have bothered me so much.
❤ While I think the romance had potential, it didn't work for me. Part of it was Lee Jae In's physical manhandling of Kim Da Hyeon. Every scene where he was touching her felt like him pushing her around. He would either have his hand wrapped around her wrist dragging her behind him or he would be pushing her around to get her where he wanted her. I don't think it was intended to look that way, but it did.
❤ If this show got one thing right, it was what a realistic romance would look like between two working adults. Both of them have to make concessions or compromises in order to see each other. There are also times when they had to make phone calls or texts count because they couldn't physical see each other. These scenes back-to-back felt a little choppy, but I do think it was realistic.

filled to the brim with old kdrama vibes
if you need a kdrama to decompress and to be in the most delulu mindset this is perfect for you. please do not let the budget stop you from watching.lee jaein and kim dahyun sure do have questionable aspects to their relationship due to their possessiveness but all i can say is this is no surprise for kdrama writers in the 2010s. the leads were funny, loveable and had amazing chemistry with each other - the story was super fun to boot.
this kdrama will definitely be living in the recesses of my mind for years to come.

What a lovely, straight forward romance!
This was a hidden gem, and something I picked up only because I was looking for contract romances. The love story was so cute, feel-good and one of the best I have ever seen in kdramas! And it's such a natural portrayal of relationships with lots of cuddles, kisses and hugs, and doesn't drag or slow down in any way. Thoroughly enjoyed it and would highly recommend for romance kdrama fans!The acting is great too - am surprised the ML and FL haven't been cast in many hit dramas since this one, I would love to see them in romance dramas again. The ML is just so cute, you can't take any offense even when he's rude in the beginning.

The epitome of a toxic relationship.
I thought by 2016, kdramaland would have evolved from the Boys over flowers’ abusive behaviour depictions. Here, we have a clearly toxic and controlling ML that could be potentially even dangerous. (Fast forward in your mind how a controlling bf turns into an abusive husband.)It is unfathomable to me how this thing was written and accepted as a scenario of a rom com (and how so many people gave it such good reviews).
Young watchers beware. What is passed as tsundere but overly smitten ML is actually a character fraught with abusive actions towards the FL. Needless to say, actions which no woman should accept or even face. We are not talking about a consensual S/M relationship. We are not talking about fiction vs reality but about a very bad example of what falling in love is or is supposed to be and what is deemed as “passionate” or “cute and loving” behaviour.
E.g. Several grabbing, dragging and pushing moments where the FL looks actually scared and/or uncomfortable, controlling what one wears, not allowing FL to have other male friends, disregarding FL’s needs/emotions, the list can go on for ever.
Do not get me wrong, I do enjoy the occasional kabedon (and its variations) when it actually is an expression of passion and NOT dominance. This is not about that. This is not raw passion or love but rather, disrespect, apathy, manipulation and abuse.
Have I deterred you enough? I have more!
Subpar acting paired with mid 2000s fashion and restaurant scene choices. (No korean food restaurants whatsoever for some reason.)
I honestly cannot see how this thing even managed to air without an audience outcry.
1/10

Hidden Gem
This is truly a gem! I've never cried because of too much happiness until this. I was seriously rooting for the main leads.This drama deserve so much appreciation and recognition.
If you are into romance with skin ships and kisses once in a while, then you will love this. Your heart will melt and burst with so much love for this mature relationship.
If you're also into CEO with possessive and childish personality but could love selflessly as well, then THIS IS FOR YOU!
(You will also wish you're the female lead.)
The ML & FL Chemistry was on fire and literally you will never know how much time has passed while watching this. It will keep you wanting for more. I basically finished this in a day.
PS. Why did they stop doing k-drama like this? #
