Straight-up Fire!!!
This is the first drama I've given straight across tens to in the rating. I'm only 6 episodes in but my enthusiasm made me come here to write this. Obviously I'm late to the party and even now, it took me a few episodes before I stopped doubting the hype. When it started, I thought the two leads were kind of cute, sometimes a bit plain. By episode 4 they began to sparkle in every scene like the cutest of heavenly creatures. Their chemistry started chemistrying and I started sqeeing at practically every scene they were in together. The banter, the giggles, the eye contact even the fights. These two bounce off of each other like magnetically charged electrons, emitting sparks in their wakes. Toxic masculinity on display here, but not glorified at all. The writing is so good, the actors (especially the leads) are phenomenal, the sound track is nigh perfect. OK enough gushing from me, but if you've been putting this one off like I did, this is your signal to cue it up on Viki or whatever platform you have access to asap. A rewatch is definitely in the cards for me and I am so happy I'm only half way through it and have several more hours of bliss.
