Fun and sweet romance

Oldie but goodie! This show just revived my long buried love for Jang Hyuk! 🥰 I watched the TW version years ago but it wasn't as fun as this remake!

Likes
1. The Snail Couple 🐌 was so fun! Loved Lee Geon and Miyeong as a couple and Jang Hyuk and Jang Nara as the leads! Even though they were only together for 3 months, they just have this beautiful connection that even Sera, who has been with Geon for 6 years couldnt shake. And even after Snail Couple broke up and Miyeong left with Daniel for 3 years, Daniel wasnt able to capture her heart.
2. I also loved Lee Geon and Miyeong as separate characters. Some were put off by Geon's maniacal laughter and eccentric ways but i thought he must be a very fun husband to be with! He is good with kids, attentive, and charming. On the other hand, Miyeong may look meek and unassuming but once you get to know her, she is an amazing person. She just needed to be more confident with herself. But once she did, she just shined even brighter.
3. The side characters were also funny like Mr Tak and Yong (Dragon). I also loved Miyeong's mom even though Geon is so rude to her (but utterly charming). And Grandma Wang is one of the nicest chaebol grandma i've seen!! 🤣

Dislikes
1. This would have been better if the length was just 16 episodes (max 18 if you just want more Snail couple cuteness). The second half was so sad compared to the lighter tone of the first half. I didnt like wimpy broody Lee Geon. Someone should have told Miyeong earlier so she could slap him out of his funk.
2. Didnt like Sera, even at the end. She was sorry not sorry to Miyeong all the time.
3. Yong's mom didnt fully apologize for trying take down Geon when she never had the right in the first place. Again you just know Geon is a great person when he was able to forgive her despite the lies and almost ruining his life.

Rating: 8.5/10
