If you see people's comments about how they couldn't feel the chemistry between LWX & HBZ, then it's likely because they haven't reached the part where you start to see their chemistry developed which is around Ep 8. The real lovely dovey stuff doesn't happened until Ep 20 but you do catch glimpses of it from Ep 8-20. Same goes for the secondary couple because the couple scenes with them happens exactly the same time our leads make it official.
But I can see why some people see it that way though. It's a very draggy and a messy plot. I almost dropped it after 4 episodes because it didn't seem like it was going anywhere. HBZ is too childish and irresponsible, LWX is a cold stone hearted guy with no care for anyone but himself, & YN is set on revenge because of his pride and misunderstandings. Do these characters get better? Yes but it takes such a long time that some people may not stick around for it.
Speaking of messy plot, it never made sense to me why HBZ lost her sense of taste in the first place. I wanna say it's become of her childhood trauma of what she witness but this drama didn't made that very clear. Same with LWX on exactly how he required his taste platter back and when too. That wasn't clear as well. Then comes the issue of YBD story. I mean didn't HBZ liked him back then? Why would she brushed her crush that easily after she found out he actually died? It made it seem liked he didn't matter to her after all. I think this part of the plot was handled in a cruel way. While the misunderstanding between HBZ and YL did cleared it up, it seemed like that was the main focus of this drama, solving what really happened to YN's dad and all of the sudden the plot lost the focus of the claiming the taste palette again for LWX.
Not a great plot in my opinion but the chemistry, while very slow, it does warm your heart in the scenes for our main leads and secondary leads. You can't help but just be happy for them. A decent and happy ending overall but nothing really special about this drama that would make it stand out.
