I thoroughly enjoyed this short Cdrama. ML was a bit cute despite acting childish, FL was very pretty while being straightforward, and they had some good chemistry together.

I applaud their effort to make some scenes less cliche, especially the scene where ML falls on the glass instead of FL kissing ML when she falls down (that got me laughing). However, some scenes were just cringey like where the actress’ admirer attacks FL and ML and acts like a bloody sociopath just because he is so in love. Luckily, the actress didn’t turn out to be the usual evil 2nd lead that ruins ML and FL’s relationship, and instead turns the perpetrator in and decides that she doesn’t like ML anymore. This made her much more likeable than just a whiney character.

But frankly, I was a bit disappointed in the ending, as it could have much more potential than just a rush ending. Firstly, it showcased ML taking over the company and acting more maturely. Secondly, it linked ML’s background (son of preserved vegetables’ company) and FL’s career (professor of biology I guess) together. However, the drama just showed FL helping ML and ended abruptly. I would be so interested in watching more ep of ML and FL supporting each other in their career, and ML acting as a more mature person in his office role.

(Ps: it was a shame that they didn’t film much of ML actually cooking food like a legit chef although I know it’s probably cuz production team was poor as I see ML and FL always wearing the same clothes?)
