I would recommend stopping at 13 episodes and finishing the story in your mindThe last 3 episodes made me drop my overall rating from a strong 8 to 4.5

Kim You Jung made this show cute and wholesome but somehow they destroyed her character Oh Sol in just a few minutes after episode 13. We knew that something was happening between Oh Sol's family and Sun Gyeol's Grandpa, there were hints everywhere. I thought that there was some bigger secret that maybe drunk Sun Gyeol killed her mother, but no. He was traumatized by his grandpa, he also lost his father because of him (THEY DIDN'T EXPLAIN MORE? HELLO? Just that he made his father leave his mother btw she was a cool character). Grandpa also sent him abroad without hearing what he had in mind because he needed to catch up with the deadlines at the construction site he sped up the process which concluded with the death of Oh Sol's mother. THEN when he gets to know that they're coming closer to each other, he forbids Oh Sol to be with him even if he will confess, if she can do it then he will save her brother's sports career. AND THEN they're hooking up, and angry grandpa goes for big guns and tells his ppl to ban him from matches for one year WTF. I was so frustrated with his character. But it was good, he had 3 months to live, he would die (I was hoping so much for this), and he was just the villain of this story. BUT WHAT HAPPENED. THIS BIATCH (Oh Sol) goes to his boyfriend, and breakups with him. That guy had so much pain in the past and she blames him for the sins of his grandpa. WHERE THE FUCK IS LOGIC. There was more fucked up shit going on, the she realise that she still loves him but because her family also hated him (BUT WHY?) she still doesn't allow him to get back. Afterward, there is a time skip of 2 years, and he cures himself of his mysophobia and starts a new business bla bla bla, he still loves her and is courting her like a simp but she still is like NOPE I still hate your family, like seriously? why?! The director just broke this drama in 3 episodes FOR ME. I don't like this illogical stuff and Oh Sol's way of reacting to the past for which he was not even guilty. And for the worst, Grandpa lives happily cured of cancer (I don't like forgiving that much stuff). Overall drama was cozy and cute with mental health issues in the background. But how they made them resolve these problems was too emotional, like they didn't even think just staying in the pain of the past, was kinda too much for me.
The side characters were good, I want to point out Choi Ha In (Dr. Daniel was a good third wheel in this drama) and Min Joo Yun (her friend, she was very likable). This is my first review that was created to funnel my frustrations :3
