A light-hearted rom com that you should start watching
ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ After I've read all the bad reviews about this drama, I decided to see how bad it actually is...and I was surprised : it's a good drama, with no "over sexual" scenes, as some may say. Ji Chang Wook and Kim Yoo Jung have such a good chemistry, despite the age gap between them. The story is really fun, and so are the characters. I can't wait to see the next episodes. So in conclusion don't mind the people over the internet who are trying to make the drama look bad, and give the series a chance. ʕ•ᴥ•ʔWas this review helpful to you?

Well many people are saying the age gap is too much or something like that but i don’t think the age gap really matters.. there’s no sexual harassment just because ML is older than her by was it 3 years? that’s actually a cute age gap. but if there is sexual harassment than the FL would be feeling discomfort and not approach ML at all. i wouldn’t say it’s the other way around as in the FL is actually the one sexually harassing the ML. she’s just pursuing love, well the way she’s doing it is a bit cree- weird.. but i don’t think so far she doesn’t mean him any harm is seems more like a pure love relationship in the drama we only always had the ML’s point of view and not the FL like in the drama the ML figured he was kinda wrong about the FL and a bit judgy. i’m not exactly supporting what the FL is doing cause it just SEEMS weird how she’s trying to- what is she trying to do? she’s just pursuing an innocent love she has with him she’s not hurting anyone around him in particular (PFFT except ML’s friend, but she didn’t hurt him her friend did ( ◠‿◠ ).) more than the FL being the creepy one i think the second lead is actually the creepy one.. since daehyun’s (the main guy) girlfriend clearly doesn’t want to be in a love kinda relationship with second lead (assuming that the second lead is trying to flirt/make a move on daehyun’s girlfriend)
why it’s entertaining? it depends on what type of genre you like but for me it was entertaining bc there wasn’t exactly any type of boring parts i can point out and it kept my mind busy off reality (i’m a depressed lonely girl) sometime i gave out some laughters bc idk why lol.
i’m glad JCW decides to be in this drama, i think some of his character played this type of role but they were oftentimes always smart and not jumping to conclusions.
check out the drama to see if its your type of drama (╹◡╹)♡

Solid but trite entertainment
There's definitely nothing new here, but it was still a very reliable watch. The romance was good, there is some decent comedy, the story progresses like you'd expect a story to progress. The main draw here is probably the overly attractive male and female leads. It's fun to watch them engage with the story and each other...mostly because they are pretty and make pretty facial expressions. The story itself is superficial and seems to almost entirely exist as a platform to watch the pretty actors be pretty.This is the sort of show you watch because it's safe and reliable, like an SUV....not as exciting as a sports car but not ugly enough to be a station wagon. It's the sort of thing you watch when you're feeling blue and want to just zone out and not think too much. There's no deeper meaning, no life mystery, no really even mysteries to solve. You just sit there and watch the pretty people be pretty and win at life....and then you smile and be like, "Ah, if only life were actually this easy/simple."

Watching for the lead I like them and funny scenes along with their bff
I think I'm watching this for the leads. I was hesistant to watch at first because of the comments about romance, current gf, almost no kiss, etc pero maganda nmn pala light hearted lng.- Ang eye candy ng mga leads
- Ang ganda ng chemistry nila, sweet, caring, kaso medyo sayang kase not that romance, I was hoping na more scene sa kanila after maging sila at may kiss.
-I want more for the couple to have scene as a couple or kahit sa ending.
- Nailalabas ni Dae Hyun kung ano siya at comfortable sya kay Saet Byul kesa kay Yeon joo na current gf nya. Di nya nasasabi mga nangyayari sa kanya sa current gf nya. Tapos pag may gusto sya gawin or sabihin, binabara at di sya pinapatapos magsalita ni Yeon joo.
- Cheater nmn pala at hindi honest c Yeon Joo kay Dae Hyun dapat maaga sila nagbreak like ep5-7 kaso pinahaba pa huhu.
- Lol Dal shik at Geum Bi haha sila second couple at nakakatawa sila
- Mag 30yrs old pa nmn pala c Dae Hyun at 22 na c Saet Byul kala ko alaki ng age gap gaya ng reklamo ng iba hehe
-Overall it's HP and it's fun.

CULTURAL APPROPRIATION PRESENT
so no one's gonna talk about the dude wearing the dreadlocks? that's cultural appropriation and I'm a hundred percent sure that they have no understanding of what it signifies. If you wanna education yourself on this topic... search up the origins of dreadlocks and rastafarianism. It's crazy how when koreans or white people wear dreads they are considered beautiful and bold however, when us black people wear them they are considered "unprofessional" and "dirty". We looking past these simple yet huge things in dramas can lead to a greater damage. Please re-evaluate yourself if this dosen't affect you slightly.Was this review helpful to you?
All in all it's not that bad!
I'm writing this during ep 7 and so far I really like it. I'll be honest I really don't like the character of Han Dal Shik but I'm pretty sure that is not just me about that... It's just... Awful in every aspect. But, other than that I find this show really funny but also deep in some aspects and I actually love the acting especially for the protagonists. So. So far so good I think!I'm really sympathizing with saetbyul character, I really really feel her, she's like the strongest girl ever I love her. And HIM, what a naive ingenuous good man he is, i really feel like he's the one who needs to be protected from a rough world that loves to take advantage of him poor boy. I hope he'll wake up soon and be repayed for his goodness and I hope Saetbyul will be able to have a good life later in the show

i regret watching it till the end
i give this drama 3/10 overall is solely because of their acting and (kind of) strong female lead. the whole plot and storyline? is too cliche for me, nothing new. Because you see, once they have childhood memories, the drama will definitely be a turn-off to most people because its predictable. There are so many problem/problematic scenes in the drama but i keep watching it in hope it will get better (and keep watching it because of the main characters). Not to mention, the age gaps. Please don't misunderstood me, i like the MCs, individually, but pairing them together? the casters could've done better than this but in the end its the actors' decision....to appear on the dramaWas this review helpful to you?
Incompatible leads
We all love Wookie. Yoo Jung is a sweetheart. But these two being paired together, just isn't my cup of tea. Sorry, not sorry. They look like siblings. No chemistry, and that is quite ironic, given Wookie's superb dynamics with his FLs. Sheesh. Yoo Jung's best partner by far, was and will always be Park Bo Gum.Was this review helpful to you?
Maybe chill on the exaggerations
I'd just have to drop the drama or save it for when I have nothing else to watch. I do love Ji Chang-wook and while Kim Yoo-jung might not be one of my favorite actresses, I think she's good. All in all, it's a nice cast.I don't find the comedy funny though, several scenes I watched were so exaggerated, I couldn't really get past that. I think those work only in the webtoon and shouldn't have ended up in the drama.
Of course, I have absolutely nothing against the age difference, there just wasn't enough to draw me in from the first episode and from the plot line, it doesn't look like there's much story to tell.
I will not rate the drama till I start watching and this review is subject to change.

Not horrible, but a waste of everyone's time
For a romcom to be successful it needs to strike the right balance of cute and witty. This was neither.ROMANCE: Can we stop putting schoolgirls with grown men and call it romantic? It was cringe.
HUMOUR: The script was weak and unable to accomodate it.
RACISM: Present. Come on Korea, let's drag you to the 21st century.
Overall, I didn't hate it, it's more backround scenes while you do laundry. But for its star power, and the fact that it was his return drama, it's massively dissapointing

Чжи Чан Ук и Ким Ю Чон. Больше мне сказать нечего ахах
няшно-милашный сериал про няшек-милашек. стоит посмотреть, когда хотите легко скоротать вечерок не особо напрягая мозг)
огромнейший плюс - очень мало страдашек и драмы, которые так любят корейцы.
➖ Из минусов:
- явно показывают, что все снимается в павильоне. В принципе, тут и особо глазастым не надо быть, чтобы это заметить ахах но я не люблю, когда прям ЯВНО это показывают. нет эффекта погружения.
- так же не понравилось то, что я ожидала определенных действий от главных героев, а их не последовало =(
- друзья главных героев прям ПЕРЕИГРЫВАЮТ. понятно, что это комичные персонажи, оттеняющие гг, но ля...тут чот уж совсем
