The ending was perfect, anything else would be wrong

It was fairly light and humorous drama, nothing too heavy. And that made it a perfect binge drama. The plot was simple, but they made it believable. It had a nice flow and things didn’t seem forced. There are a few things that I think it could have been done without or could have been done differently, but it wasn’t anything major.

Go Sa Ri does seem quite superficial, with not much depth. I did find her slightly annoying at times, but I can also understand where she is coming from. I do wish she was clearer with the guys around her, it felt like she was stirring them all along while she was unable to make any solid decision. I am glad that this is at least cleared up to some point at the end.

Pi Jung Won is in love with his best friend, but she doesn’t see that. In a way, he is more reserved and not willing to share his feelings, because he knows it might ruin his relationship with Sa Ri. I like how he was never pushy with his feelings, how he never used Sa Ri hurting him as an excuse to try and control who she does or doesn’t date.

Jeon Woo Sang who Sa Ri divorced is also back in hopes of a second chance. With all his clinginess and creepiness, he has a soft heart. He wanted Sa Ri back and was willing to do a lot to make that true, but he never went as low as to hurt her. I’m not excusing his stalkerish behavior, but I don’t think he was ever malicious.

Yeon Ha Rim might be young, but he is not dumb. I actually really liked his character. He never hid who he was, didn’t pretend to be someone else. Sure, he joked with Sa Ri about his age at first, but I don’t think that should be taken seriously. His age does show in the way he interacts with Sa Ri, it’s almost like he idolizes the idea of love.

Ki Sun Jae is the CEO of the company Sa Ri works for. I actually found him very adorable. He didn’t really give off scarry director vibes most of the time but was very sweet (even if slightly reluctant). He was trying to be obvious about his feelings while simultaneously trying to keep his distance, his cold persona that everyone knows.

I absolutely loved Doo Mu Ri and Ye Soo Won. The two might be dramatic and extra, but they were great friends to Sa Ri (and even Pi Jung Won). They were supportive and were always there when Sa Ri needed them. They didn’t let her hide when things got tough, but instead offered support. Sa Ri’s work collegoues were a mess. Some were fun or were able to redeem themselves, while others were just not likeable. Sadly, that is often the truth of a workspace.

The acting in general was okay, but it did feel flat sometimes. I am not generally a fan of the over-the-top scenes, but I didn’t find them bothersome.

I also really liked the ending. I think it was perfect the way it was. I know a lot of people might not find that ending satisfactory, but it carries an important message, one that has been pushed forward quite a few times during the drama. If you paid attention, of course.
