A slow paced drama, that starts well but becomes repetitive and boring.
I had really enjoyed the previous works of both main leads, so I was quite excited to start this. I watched it as it was airing, and during the first couple of episodes, I thought okay, this looks like it could be interesting. And towards the middle of the drama, things were picking up and I was genuinely invested in the characters' lives. But after that things just go downhill.
Conflicts kept arising which would usually be okay, but all the conflicts were so similar to each other. Just there to sow discord and doubt in the main couple's relationship. This caused the drama to feel draggy. At the start, I felt like the chemistry between the main leads was a little lacking, but in the next few episodes I saw their chemistry slowly start to build, and I truly enjoyed watching them go from strangers to people in love, in a realistic way. But that's about it. I feel that this honestly did not need to be as long as it was. 8 episodes would have been enough to tell a nice story that didn't make me want to skip scenes.
As for the side couples, I enjoyed watching the FL's sisters' relationship, they were actually adorable and probably my favorite couple for the series. As for the SML and SFL, I am just so surprised they even worked out. All they seemed to have done the entire series is fight, and it's always the same fight spun in different ways.
Apart from the different couples, the plot was basically non-existent. Every other episode or so there would be some drama about forecasting the weather, and if the prediction would be right or not, it was fun to watch at first, but after the first couple of times I started skipping the forecasting scenes because they all seemed the same. I really wish they had introduced a more complex plot related to their job, so it would just be us watching the home lives of a bunch of people who work in the same field, because thats exactly what it felt like.
All in all, this is definitely not a very memorable drama, and if I didn't watch it while it was airing, I probably would not have finished it. If you really like the leads or want something slow-paced that you don't need to pay a lot of attention to, then pick this up, otherwise I would say skip it.
