Trust me, I LOVE a good cliche rom-com. Unfortunately, this ain't it.

At least not for me. I guess I understand why people would be so into this drama, but I personally just can't. The CEO arrogant ML gig is far from being my cup of tea, and the entire superiority/inferiority complex between the main leads being boss and employee is way too obvious. I suppose I should've expected this much from the summary already, but still, I hoped for some differences from the usual stuff we've already seen 5 years ago in romantic comedy K-dramas like this. But there are so many tropes and cliches in this drama, that it's damn predictable and at some point, it felt like I was watching one of those Wattpad fanfictions turned into a drama.

However, on the positive side, the secondary couple was admittedly the best thing about this drama. I loved their chemistry-- which I felt the main couple lacked, and I liked their characters both individually and together as well. They brought newness to a plate that's otherwise dull and has been done a 100 times before in the absolute same manner.

So, in conclusion, you could watch the secondary couple's scenes only and have some happy good thoughts about this drama OR you could put yourself through the cringe and utterly unappealing cheesiness of the main couple as well. But then again, everyone I know seemed to love this drama. I don't know, did we even watch the same thing?
