If you're new to K-dramas and enjoy other popular dramas from the late 00's and early 2010's then you'll probably like if not love this drama. It's also A LOT of peoples first or one of their first K-dramas.
However, if you started watching more modern K-dramas and or movies and you value good acting, storyline, writing, and plot then this drama is NOT for you. Now don't get me wrong, I love a good rom-com, if that rom-com is actually funny. This is very basic kind of "dumbed-down" humor where all the actors kind of act like children throwing fits and that about sums up the whole show. If you're into that then give it to try, if you're not though, spare yourself. I tried my best to keep watching this and I am not one to drop a drama but I just couldn't force myself into watching any more episodes of this. The acting is not serious at all, but I don't think it was intended to be if that helps. The plot could have been good if the acting and the writing was more intelligent. The music was very repetitive and a little cringey but a lot of people like it so there you go. Now, the thing is, I love a lot of these actors. I love, love LOVE Gu Hye-sun, but I hated her character (and almost every character in this drama). This was truly a drama of its time.
