I enjoyed watching this drama. I did not feel bored in the early episodes like many, in fact those were my favorites. The tone of the drama shifts a lot after that, I did not mind that too much though. I'm okay with gritty dark comedy & regular romcom like comedy as well, but certainly the writers did try all kind of things to lift the abysmally low ratings (0.3% nationwide average), it would be a stretch to call the resulting plot coherent, but to be honest I've seen much worse victims of live filming.
The finale is not great, it feels like they didn't give an eff anymore. That zip tie scene is more than just teribad, but I've seen worse endings & at least it ends on a joyful, albeit rushed note.
There are lots of good things too. There were some really great impactful, touching scenes, even though I'm not entirely sold on the OTP's chemistry, but they were great at their respective roles. In fact the entire cast was great. The show kind of reminds me of Be Melodramatic at times. It's obviously not nearly as good, but some of the same vibe is still present. The secondary couples were great, I wish they spent more time exploring those relationships. Then again I'm not sure what the original intent was with the single parent firefighter's story. It feels like too much ended up being cut for me to understand what the writers wanted to do (and there was too little screentime for the husband) Speaking of content being cut, the cartoon villain in the last episode feels way too arbitrary.
The average rating of this show as of writing this review is 7,7. I think that's more than fair, then again there are many in the 8,2-8,4 range that are hugely worse. Ultimately I think the drama is worth watching, it's more than just a meaningless filler show, despite me somewhat generously rating it only 7,5.

Yoon Bomi is the best.
Even Noh Sayon shows up in the drama with her husband. (I remember seeing her NG a simple scene in a variety show 30 times in a row, I never thought she would ever try a cameo appearance in anything :-) ) I love her, but she has no acting talent.
