So I always like unconditional romances. I am tired of billionaire romances on BookTube and K drama land, where women just like the guy because he is a rich dude. It’s just I don’t know gives me a negative feeling. I don’t like to see “gold digging” ladies. Conversely I am also tired of tropes where the men are only in because the only female lead is a billion years younger and super good looking. Again it shows the shallowness of the guy.
Here the guy appeared poor and the girl was older. They both have amazing chemistry and the scenes are too cute. It was also a more passionate drama with more skinship than I have seen with JDramas. The female lead was so precious and cute… the male lead was more assertive and “cool” than I have seen in JDramas. It made for very interesting dynamic. Also each episode was only about 15 minutes so essentially it’s a short watch.
The coolest thing was that the guy turns out to be quite rich and this is a favourite trope of mine where the guy is a closet rich guy and the female lead did not know this. A lot of things makes sense when we realise that the male lead was rich for example his carelessness with money, his confidence and his faith (that he was a good match for the girl even when he was so much younger).
This drama felt like my most favourite romance book. I have rewatched it 5 times and it’s easily one of my favourites for this year.
