(Edited!) Worth time that you have. Hilarious, fun, and well done

I know that I’m only four episodes in, but it has been so long since I actually found drama that I not only deeply enjoy, but also like so much that I’m willing to watch it as it comes out that I just had to write a review. It is that entertaining. All of the cast is cast perfectly. They all really fit their characters and do an incredible job of breathing life into them. They are humorous, and sometimes the humor is over the top, but even when it’s over the top it’s still somehow feels like exactly the right amount. I find myself engaging in belly laughs, hands on my knees level laughs, gasping laughs, the kind of laughing that will wake up the people around me. It’s just frankly delightful. I’m avoiding any and all spoilers, so I’m so sorry if this review is generic seeming, but honestly all you really know need to know is that I really strongly encourage you to try this drama. The only thing that this drama has against it, is that the theme song is too catchy. In like I can’t stop thinking about it but I would like to stop thinking about it. Beyond that, if you like comedy, you’ll love this drama.

Okay so edited and without spoilers: but by the end, the drama stops being as self aware of tropes and stops poking fun at them, so it just /becomes/ trope-y. There were so many things they could have don’t to keep the pacing and humor up and it’s a little disappointing that they didn’t. But it was still a good drama that I’ll think of fondly. I’ll definitely still rewatch this for the laughs at the beginning.
once you give it the shot it deserves and love the beginning, you’ll find that you need to finish it and you won’t feel like you wasted your time when finishing it. But you just possibly won’t be as satisfied with it as you thought you were going to be.

You will start crying with the first episode but will laugh, too

Not exactly a spoiler, as I’m actually trying my hardest not to, but I think since this is enough of a spoiler to let you know that things might not end exactly how you expect, i marked it as a spoiler. To be honest, I’m writing the review not so that I can tell you about details of the plot or the acting or if I would personally watch it again—but I’m encouraging you from the depth of my being: if you make it to the last episode, do not stop watching until the words “the end” appear on the screen. Watch past the musical montage. I don’t know if it will make it better or worse—I don’t know if it made it better or worse for me even now. But you’ll need it.
