Looks promising at first, but trust me, it isn't
OVERALL
This a hot mess with almost no redeeming quality. Just don't watch, unless you're really, really, REALLY desperate.
THE STORY
I started this drama and finished it, so I can't say it's completely trash. I wouldn't have endured the whole thing if it was. I liked the premise, it seemed like the drama was going to be something different. Female lead looks nice and mature at first too. Male lead looks weird from the start but his interactions with FL are pretty fun, so it's easy to stick around. But the good of this drama lasts around...five episodes? Many one or two more?
The drama gradually descends into pure madness. Female lead is a useless tyrant that really isn't likeable, Male lead is just too goofy to root for, they always behave like master and slave so not sure how we can buy that they're falling in love, their coworkers are all horrid, his family is a nightmare...Not to mention that the secondary couples are not that close to the leads (so why do we need to care?), are given way too much screen time and have uninteresting love lines. If only I hadn't been bored, I definitely would have given up on this drama halfway through. The worst thing about the drama is the way it talks about one major plot element (that happens in episode 1). I know views on this procedure are very different from one culture to the next, but it just made me so uncomfortable to watch how everyone's treating Female lead for going through it. Really made my blood boil. Like I said, no redeeming quality in this drama...except, maybe, the acting.
THE ACTING
That was fine. I don't know why, but I really like lead actress's acting. I decided to watch this drama after seeing her in Lucky With You, and she's so different here, but still, there's this serene aura about her I just like! Lead actor was fine too, I guess, even though I really didn't like his character. They just have zero chemistry, and since there's also close to zero skinship in this drama, it's a total fail.
THE MUSIC
Loud, excessive, and annoying.
REWATCH VALUE
Real low.
