Grows on you
I haven't really watched many Korean sitcoms, so I don't know what they are generally like. Best way I would describe this is feeling very much like a Disney channel sitcom, but with a bit more mature or racy themes at times. Just in the way some of the silly comedy lands with misplaced laugh tracks gives off a bit of that Disney channel vibe. Despite this some of the comedy can still be quite funny and it grew on me as I enjoyed each of the characters personalities.
I really appreciate the show in trying to break a lot of racial stereotypes, as it's something Korea has a long ways to go in. It's just nice seeing Korean speaking foreigners playing main roles, as they are generally reduced to just 5 second guest roles in other dramas who only speak English.
Overall, while often silly, it's a fun simple watch that doesn't get too heavy. It's a refreshing show you probably don't get out of Korea much.
