I read a few reviews where some people said the story made no sense and there was no chemistry as in: why did they love each other?

I think the story is very based in reality. Why do you need a reason to love someone? Sometimes you just do, and you just can't figure out why! That's what this story is about.

People are attracted to people for various reasons, but they have standards, so when they are attracted to someone they are surprised. They say to themselves, "I don't understand, why am I doing this?"

I think that is why this story is compelling. Its not for some cliche reason like, "OH, she so pretty I must make her mine." Its a story about two personalities bridging and coming together. And of course there are a few plot twists, and other drama that make it exciting. Not to mention the comedy. I don't think I've ever laughed out loud so much when watching a single drama. It Had the right Mix of Comedy, Drama and Romance.

I will admit that at some parts this drama seemed a little slow moving to me. If producers can make a compelling in romance in a hour and a half with plenty of back story, why does this have to be done in 20 hours? I think it would have dragged less if it were 16 episodes. They could have cut out some of the really long unnecessary scenes. 16 Episodes would have been perfect for it.

None-the-less, If anyone takes the time and patience to watch it, I highly doubt you'll be disappointed!
