I started this on a whim because it was conveniently on Netflix and I was between currently aired episodes of the ongoing dramas I was watching at the time. I don't usually watch C-dramas (I think I've seen maybe 2 or 3) and I usually have trouble getting sucked into them just because the language sounds so different from Korean and many times it's a voice-over, so it's a bit distracting. And also, the stunts can be a bit too exaggerated for me. But this drama didn't have any of those awkward things to get through. There's no voice-overs and no over-the-top stunts (not the right genre for that anyways haha).

AND what I really enjoyed was the great use of the OST's and sound effects. I'm a sucker for sound effects used to accentuate funny moments and this drama does a great job doing that! I also totally bought into the love story of the 2 MCs. They were so cute together and they're innocence was adorable to watch. And the trope throughout the whole drama - how the male MC thought with a scientific mind while the female MC thought with a more laymen's mind - was realistically funny to see from both sides when they misunderstood each other and came to understand one another.

The drama is easily binge-watched over a long weekend with how fast-paced and fun this drama is. Nothing got draggy thankfully. And I also think that the female MC's high school crush was handled well; honestly, I thought he was a pretty big loser, but they concluded his side of the story well. The only reason this drama didn't score higher for me was just because I truly disliked the story of the high school crush - even though he was handled well in the end, I didn't care for his character or his romance/story (I came close to skipping their scenes). If I were to ever watch this again, I'd definitely skip his scenes.

Overall, very fun, light-hearted, romantic comedy. I liked it so much that I'm willing to give more C-dramas a chance in the future. Recommend for sure.
