This is a drama that needs your patience.

It took a while for me to finally get the gist that this drama is worth watching. It was like half of the whole drama when things actually got more exciting and it's no longer frustrating for the first part is mostly about the company's business. I skipped a LOT of those scenes wherein there's just endless bickering of the ones running the company which is super annoying. The relationship of the 2 main leads may be quite slow-paced, but that's what made the latter part at the end more heartfelt. I felt all the emotions because I feel like I was with them all along as they go through all those loopholes and trials being thrown at them. It wasn't like those dramas that are just solving problem after problem, but they showed how love naturally came and their feelings are built out of helping and being together which made them the best version of themselves. What's really hands down for me is Tao's acting skills. Never did I expect him to be that good in acting. His role was definitely a perfect fit for him and every scene, especially when he teases and jokes around is really natural. I wish to see him more in dramas. Apart from that, he really did showcase his talent for the soundtrack is mostly sung by him and his songs here are top-notch, it's really addictive, and it's crazy how underrated he was when he was still in EXO. This could be 9-9.5 but I can't say I enjoyed every bit of it because they dragged too much on the business stuff which a lot of people from the comments also said that they have also skipped. The first half of the drama is dragging but the second half makes up for it all!!

Overall, the 2 main leads unexpectedly have good chemistry and I'm just so ecstatic because their acting was so natural and the progress of their romance is not pushy at all. The amount of adoration and my respect for Tao as an artist, may it be as a singer or actor has tripled because of this drama. Will recommend!
