Feels like comfort food for the soul
Overall Rating - 9
Highly recommended! It's a solid romantic-comedy of two star-crossed lovers whom you can't help but root for. Perfect to watch on a long weekend as you warm yourself up with your favorite blanket or duvet.
Prepare some tissue as some scenes can really move you to tears.

Production Value - 7
Picturesque wide and close-up shots make up for most of the drama's storytelling. Tight shots can be much more stable and easier on the eyes. On some parts, I almost had a headache from the shaking camera angles.
Color tone for the entire series reminds of spring, which brilliantly evokes that hopeful sensation you'll feel while watching the series.

Script and Screenplay - 8
Dialogues are sensible and comedic relief timely for each scene. There are just some unnecessary and redundant scenes that could have been removed and air-time used to further showcase depth to the main leads' growth.

Story - 9
Plot is your typical romantic comedy trope with some semblance to "My Name is Kim Sam Soon."
Although I have a love-hate relationship with how they call the female lead "regular or ugly Hae Yong" just because her rival and namesake is the "pretty Hae Yong", the writers were able to deliver justice to this premise.
Our heroine, Hae Yong, despite being confronted with the insecurities of placing second next to the "pretty one" grew stronger and independent, which was evident from how she stands up against other people. As a viewer, I can relate to her struggles in so many levels, and I'm so proud of her for saying these empowering words:
"I am me, you are you."" There is such power and pull to her. I am charmed!

Stellar performance from everyone in the show. Side characters served more like plot devices to move the story but are likeable and true to their story arcs.
Also, Eric Mun and Seo Hyun Jin were perfect as lead roles. HJ instantly became one of my favorite Korean actresses through this show.

Music - 10
Background music and soundtrack have truly blessed my ears that I quickly searched for the songs after finishing the first episode.

Another Miss Oh is that comfort food for the soul. Watch it when you're sad, lonely, happy, and worried. Watch it when you're madly in love, and watch it when you're falling apart. You can't go wrong with this one.
