This review may contain spoilers
Predictable cliche story where the 2nd lead couple shines bright.
The drama itself is very cute and fluffy. But those scenes are hit-and-miss for some. Sometimes many scenes don't make a lot of sense so if you are gonna watch this because you like a sensible plot, and a good storyline, don't waste your time here.
Things I liked:
The second lead couple. Simply put, their story was more interesting. They had the best chemistry. and it was easy to fall in love with them. Both of them didn't have a hidden agenda and I wasn't filled with angst waiting for everything to unfold. They also shared a good screen presence. Their scenes shined and I skipped unnecessary scenes just to watch these two on screen.
I also liked Tae Joon's character. He was mysterious, quiet and calm. I loved that about him. I also liked his small smiles and the scenes of soft and fluffy tae joon.
Things that I didn't like:
I usually hate misunderstandings, relationships starting on lies, and deceiving tropes so I steered clear from this drama from the beginning. But then I randomly decided to watch it and it's safe to say that I still hate this trope. and All the snooping, and digging into Tae Joon's past was off-putting.
Won young. I also didn't like his character. I wouldn't say he is the worst thing in the drama and insufferable, but his actions weren't exactly making me root for him or make him likable.
Lack of screen time for other characters. I love that we are getting long running hours. But that doesn't help when we focus solely on the main leads most of the time. It would be fine to watch them forever if the main leads had jaw-dropping chemistry but what both shared was soft chemistry and the show wouldn;t be able to run for 30 to 45 minutes for 10 episodes with just that. I know that we have two other male leads but they barely got any screen time. But both of them did well despite the lack of screen time.
I probably wouldn't rewatch this drama again Mostly because those lying tropes aren't my type and I am not willing to put myself through Won Young's quest to snoop into Tae Joon's life. Personally, I only continued this drama for both the second leads. So to conclude, watch this only for the characters. because there is nothing new with the plot. This is a generic, cliche drama but with good actors and great chemistry.
