Imagine you turn into an old version of yourself during the day

Honestly this reminded me so much of Howl’s moving castle. Though the premise isn’t the same (where the character in the anime was old constantly and only young again when she accepts herself for herself), the concept of the FL turning into an older version of herself still held the similarity together.

This was such a weird concept for a K-Drama especially since the FL was going to work for the ML whilst simultaneously liking him- which means the older version of herself crushed on the normal young ML, plus the second lead also crushed on her and even showed fondness of her when she was an old lady? It’s so silly and although describing it like that sounds crazy, I guess watching it made it look a little less creepy lol..

So the FL turned into an old lady during the day and back to herself during the night. I always wondered how the ML and the parents never questioned once why they couldn’t see her during the day. I get being busy because of work (since that was her only excuse), but still…this lasted for so long and nobody questioned it?! Especially the ML…considering the fact that he’s a prosecutor who also investigates a little on the side, how was he not questioning this sooner? But I digress.

Overall I really enjoyed the show, it was hilarious!!! I recognised the ML actor immediately because of Mr.Queen K-drama. He’s such a good actor for comedies, I wish he gets casted in more future shows- and please…give him roles similar to Mr.Queen…the bland/cold ML personality types don’t suit him imo. The only time he looked good in the show was when he blushed and giggled over the FL hehe

On another note, I loved the main couple so much that the second lead didn’t tug on my heartstrings at all. Maybe a little bit but the show made it clear that the FL never had feelings for the second lead so it was easy to ship her with the ML.

And also, man…I don’t know how to feel about the best friend with the older guy who’s best friends with the ML…they just…do not fit AT ALL.

He looks like he could be her dad…genuinely the last thing I thought would happen. Did the writers write that in last minute? There was no spark between them the first time they met and then the second time suddenly something happened? Lol…I don’t know, it just felt so random and maybe it was added for comedy purposes but the fact that they’re serious about it made it a little uhhh…I don’t know, uncomfortable I guess.

She looks in her mid 20s and he looks in his early 50s…she’s a naive youtuber and he’s an old dude who was already divorced once. Don’t really get the appeal of them getting together.

Anyway, I’m rating this high because this is the K-Drama that got me out of my K-Drama block. I was struggling to finish everything I started but this one caught me good. I loved it! Comedy in here was top tier, I laughed a lot, especially in the last episode where ML placed his hand on the cactus while trying to flirt with the FL LMAOOO

Overall pretty good!!! I recommend it!
