I'm a huge fan of So Ji-Sub so that was one of the main reasons I decided to watch this, but I also really loved Son Ye-jin's performance in Something In The Rain, and neither of them disappointed me. They executed their roles perfectly, along with the little boy I was extremely impressed with all of the acting in this movie. The story line was well written, and I definitely didn't expect the plot twist and the end (I guess you will have to go watch the movie to know what the plot twist is). The whole plot was unpredictable but that's what made it so amazing.
In regards to music I don't really remember the sound track, but I really loved the song Some by Bolbbalgan4.
Overall I would highly recommend this movie, I'm going to rewatch it tonight and I don't think anybody should be deprived of the pleasure to watch this, because it was just that amazing.

I loved this drama sosososo much, and I really implore everybody to go watch it. As a fan of Goblin it was really lovely to see Sunny and the Grim Reaper get their happy ending, but that's not the only reason you should go watch this drama. Don't think that the only thing it's got going for it is the hype of the two lead actors. The story line was incredible, and I really enjoyed watching as the two leads got closer and the troubles they faced throughout the drama. The ML was adorable and made me wish that I had a guy like him in my life. He was understanding and it was a joy to watch him at the FL get closer. He was strong when needed but also had his weaknesses, just like any real person does. The thing I loved most about this drama is how the two leads become better people when they're together, they really complement each other and the chemistry between the two characters was incredible.
Another aspect of this drama that I loved was the side characters, they were intertwined in the story and I found myself really rooting for the romance between multiple of the couples. This drama created it's own little world, it wasn't just all about the leads, but there was a community of people that really made this drama work so well, including all the side characters and their plot lines.
In regards to the music, I'm a huge Chen (EXO) fan and his OST sounded incredible (It's called Make It Count) and it really fit the story well. I can't really remember any of the other OST's but they all sounded pretty good from what I heard whilst watching the drama.
I rated this drama 10 in re-watch value as well, just because during the times when I was waiting impatiently for a new episode I found myself returning to the past episodes to go through my favourite moments. That's when you know a drama is good and that you'll be returning to watch it again in the future.
Please go watch this drama, everything was perfect about it. The romance was perfectly placed, the plot was great, side characters were positively incredible and the ending definitely didn't disappoint either.

What I especially love about this drama is it's story line- it talks about everyday issues; from bitches that you have to face at work to getting your period while wearing white pants. And the female lead reacts to all of this well, as stated in the title she is 'Miss Independent' so whilst watching the web drama you learn tips from her, she takes on all of her problems in a rational way and thinks things through. This is my favourite aspect of the drama, as it really depicts that splice of life perfectly. She doesn't jump into the romance with the male lead abruptly, and reacts to crushes in a way real people would, she not a typical kdrama girl, and that's why I love her so much.
I should stop talking about how incredible Jieun is woops- anyway I would completely recommend this drama. You won't regret watching it and it will leave a sweet aftertaste. You can watch it on Youtube so it's easily accessed (here's the link to the videos https://youtu.be/GLXFLrYjWxA ).

The male lead Park Jung-min (Kim Sung-cheol) was lovable and forced you to love him in his awkward moments.
One downside of this drama is this amount of time they spent with the male lead singing, I skipped through most of these scenes. This definitely shouldn't stop you from watching the drama because overall it's incredible, but it's something small to look out for.
To conclude this drama was short and sweet, the acting was sweet, the storyline was sweet and it left a sweet aftertaste. I'm about to go rewatch it- and I think that everybody should go do that too.
Just an after thought: Jung Chae-yeon was good too, I'm a fan of her from her I.O.I days (and now from DIA) but I commend her for her strong acting. It didn't stand out as amazing but it wasn't bad either. It was sweet just like everything in this drama special. Also don't get discourage because it's only two episodes, the drama gave us everything we need within these episodes and didn't leave any loose ends.

Honestly I wasn't too enamoured with this drama, it was a cute watch with some sentimental moments- but that was mostly all to it. The main plot was good, and I enjoyed the romance between the main couple, but other than that I felt the other side plots didn't really fit into the drama. There were a lot of side plots within this drama, and mostly I felt that they did an alright job with them- but there were moments where they felt too out of left field. The second largest plot point after the main couple and their sort of 'love triangle' is the friendship between two men in the x-ray department (I don't know what's it's called lol), but their plot didn't fit into the whole story line of the drama. Yes, it was a nice story but I could have done without it. They didn't have much of a connection to the main characters; other than a few plot crossovers I don't really know why they were there. This drama is a 'slice of life' drama, and yes, that means following the lives of everyday people and their struggles, but I still felt like it was a bit awkward with the plot points and making it interesting. It felt like each character had a story that we followed, but then they never wrapped up their plot lines and just left us guessing what happened to the characters. They teased us with romance between two different couples, and then seemed to run out of time to finish what they intended to do with them. I understand that they can't wrap up all the plot lines, because they viewer should still be able to imagine the future for the world they've created for this drama, but this was just too much- they introduced plot points and then left them out to dry.
I also felt they made the 2ndML too much of an asshole to seem likeable, he did have redeeming qualities, but not enough of them that I could sympathise with his struggles and his unrequited love for the FL. I did feel sorry for him, but other than that I just wanted him to butt out of the main couples romance, and to stop being so cryptic with what he wanted. Another plot point not wrapped up, his struggles with his family and how he felt he could never live up to the success of his brother. That was a relatively large plot line at one point, and they made it seem like there would be potential character growth from the family in order to make him feel more loved, but this never happened and they never revisited that plot point- I was disappointing in this.
Anyway moving on to the positives because I've talked too much about the disappointing parts oops.
I really liked the FL, they made her seem so likeable and hard working that I couldn't help but want the best for her, and I was more inclined to agree in disputes between her and other characters. She wasn't too annoying or clingy, and they made it seem like she really was a real person who was just going through her own trials and tribulations in life. This was really well done, along with the slow burning romance between her and the ML (is he really the ML though? it seemed that the other guy appeared more throughout the drama...). I enjoyed the moments where she read the poems out loud and it showed the other characters going through their struggles, and their own interpretation of each poem. I liked how they kept the them throughout the whole drama, never straying from the 'poem a day' and keeping in light and sentimental. I also really appreciated that they didn't have a 'villain' so to say, yes, they had relatively disagreeable characters, but they weren't made up to seem like they were doing anything particularly bad. This really was a slice of life drama, and it stayed inside its' borders, not pushing any boundaries or being controversial in any way.
As a whole I'd say, yeah, go watch this drama- but don't expect anything drama filled or life changing. It's a slice of life drama and won't keep you on the edge of your seat waiting for the next episode, but it's a nice watch and teaches valuable lessons that many people would benefit from. The acting is good and everything is very realistic and pleasant.

The OST's were great (I'm listening to the sound track as I write this and it makes me want to rewatch the drama again), especially Memory by Ben, Because Of You by Kim EZ and One More Step by Sandeul- they're my favourites. The acting was well executed and the two leads played their characters well, it wasn't overdone or too melodramatic. There were sweet moments between the two leads, yes, you may have had to wait for them for a little while, but they happened eventually and they were incredible and worth waiting for.
I especially liked the acting of the second male lead, Yoon Park is a great actor who always portrays his roles well- In 'Hello My Twenties' he made me love his character so much, while in 'Introverted Boss' he made me hate him at moments and then love him at others. I really commend him for being to be able have that sort of duality.
I loved how you really got to watch Eun Hwan-Ki come out of his shell and get more comfortable with the Silent Monster team, many people argued that it happened too fast and it didn't really make much sense with the timing of events- but I disagree, I loved this aspect of the drama and loved seeing all the weird situations he got in when trying to help out his team-mates.
Another aspect of the drama that I loved is how sweet Eun Hwan-Ki (the male lead) is and how the drama portrayed this, everything he does he does it when thinking of how it will benefit others. He's just a shy little boy trying to express himself in the best way he can- yes it does come off as a bit creepy at the start of the drama but you learn to love his quirks and oddities as the drama progresses.
All in all I'd really recommend this drama, give a bit of time (don't drop it too soon) and I'm sure you'll come to love it as much as I do. Don't judge it too harshly at the start and go into watching it with an open mind. Everything will make sense at the end of the drama so don't get confused when it's a bit convoluted. Good luck :))

Anyway I would always recommend this drama to anybody; in my opinion it's underrated. The cast is incredible, put together with good ost's and a well written story line it's a drama that I plan to rewatch many times in the future.
You should do yourself a favour and stop reading this review, go watch the drama instead :))

The character development was consistently good throughout the film with the two leads. The ML was extremely adorable, and I liked how the FL grew as a person throughout the movie, but that's really all I would say. There's not much of a story line and it seems to jump around a bit, so I wouldn't recommend this to anybody who doesn't know what they're getting into.
The romance was well slotted in, there wasn't a lot of it but when it was there it was well written and acted. Park Il Son made me swoon, and the FL naivety was well placed too.
One thing I will say is that the acting was really good, they characters were complex, and it looked like they would have been difficult to portray, but it was really well done. Throughout the movie I forgot that the man I was looking at was Rain, and started the think of him as Park Il Son.
Overall I would say, yeah, totally go watch this movie, but go into it with an open mind. I won't criticise it because in theory it was a good movie and I liked most parts, but it just was not to my taste.

I really enjoyed this so I would recommend it 10/10 if you're wanting and easy watch comedy (maybe don't watch this with you're parents around lmao cos it can get a bit frisky at times).
So apparently my review has to be 500 characters in length so I'll lengthen this out a bit.
The two leads had extremely good chemistry, and it was funny watching them both realise that they liked the other. The two found themselves in some funny situations that were cliche but but worked out with the dramas vibe. It wasn't too comedic that you got sick of the jokes and they added just enough romance for you to ship the two main characters.
I don't remember the official sound tracks (if there were any), so I can't comment on that.
Anyway I've just finished downloading this movie so I'm going to go watch it again- I hope you go do that too :))

I started watching this drama extremely excited for it- I'm a fan of Apink and Eunji's acting, but this drama just didn't cut it. It seemed like they ran out of story line after maybe the first 7 episodes and they just didn't know what to do with the end. Some of the story lines were just too dragged out and I almost dropped this drama half way through, if it wasn't for Eunji I would have. The acting was good but they could have done so much better with the story line.A good this about this drama was the female leads little sister- she was cute and provide so funny moments throughout the drama. Also the cute moments when the male lead comes to eat at their house it one of the highlights of the drama.
SORT OF SPOILER HERE:
The amnesia storyline was unnecessary- it didn't add anything to the drama and just made me frustrated. It wasn't well executed and just left me confused.
SPOILER END
Overall I would only recommend this drama if you're a fan of any of the actors and are willing to sit through a not so good second half. It wasn't too bad but mostly it was only memorable for Eunji's vocals and the shitty story line. The drama isn't so bad but I wouldn't recommend it, there are some cute moments but there weren't enough to 'save' the drama.
