Seriously, this is one of the highest quality Taiwan romcoms i've seen in a while. This Drama was so cute and had minimal bullshit and it didn't drag at all so I binged it in like 2 days or something insane.
The main couple is so cute. The main guy's love for the leading lady is so cute. The show is mostly set in the present but it does show their highschool days as well and it's almost the best part of the show because their friendship/"rivalry" when they were younger was the sweetest young-love thing ever. I get major In Time With You vibes and I loved it.
This drama, I repeat, this drama, had no hospital scenes, no opposing family drama (literally none. everyone loved them together), no gang scenes (im not gonna count the school bullies) no one got kidnapped, or hit by a car and no one was crazy and it was the most refreshing and yet bizarre thing ever cause you come to expect them (like, there was this scene at the end where the evil guy was holding a pen and he kept waving it around and I was legit 100% convinced he'd suddenly stab everyone with it in a fit of revenge, but he didn't and used it to write instead and my brain just went *explodes* because yes. that's what pens are for, and anyway) Nothing soap-drama happens in this show so you don't need to leave your brain at the door if you don't want to. There's no noble idiocy either so if that doesn't immediately make you type it up into viki, I don't know what will.
But the acting is on point and the both of them are such a gorgeous couple. The business war aspect of the show was also really interesting although I must admit, the employees at the beginning annoyed the absolute hell out of me because they were so bad at their jobs, but the show is about them "changing" and stuff so they had to start somewhere, I understand. I just would've fired them like last century if I was their boss. But our CEO is secretly a sweetheart and likes giving people chances so there we go.
Also, props to the best second lead female in the entire fucking world. no lie. you'll know what i mean. like for real. What a G.
Anyway, if you're looking for cute 'In Time with you' meets classic 'Ceo vs secretary' meets 'rivals to friends to lovers?' rainyday romcom, seriously, this is for you.
