Good just to pass the time.
If you want to watch something that doesn't really have a lot of dramatic scenes or high impact scenes, this is your drama.
The story wasn't that complicated and the issues they could've explored to give the story more dept were just brushed aside. With this I mean that they mention or give sidecharacters certain struggles and instead of exploring the impact of that or using it to show light on the issue, they just use it as "sad story folder" for male mc. With this I mean the living conditions of SOME children in Africa (and the stereotype of Africa), his mother's Alzheimer, his best friend's suicide. I know they can't make the whole show about it but how quick they were to use it as "aw, pooor sad mc" felt insensitive.
I also feel that because they glossed over this stuff, they didn't have a lot going on, so the story felt like it dragged and repetitive at times, they would've benefitted if it was a 12 episodes drama.
Regarding the couples:
Main couple I was more into them when they used to bicker but also care for each other, when they got together and their relationship turned to just" AWWWWW, MY PARTNER IS SO CUTEEEEEEEE!!!!" it became a little boring.
The two managers couple bored me. I actually shipped him with the actress he got to join the company, the fangirl of male mc. I actually love the actor (Yoon Jong Hoon, especially in Come and hug me) that plays the manager so I liked him on his scenes with other characters, the female manager just bored me, but I don't blame the actress about that.
The celebrity journalist and the lawyer were actually my fav couple, and the female journalist my fav character. It's a shame that they're the ones that had the less screening time as a couple (i understand that the mcs had more, but I would've prefered more of this couple rather than the managers couple). Another couple that I really like was the one of Yoo Na and Jae Hyun.
I sound like I didn't like this drama, but I did, it's a good one if you want to watch something lighthearted but decent. I adored the PR team, the fangirl/actress, the companionship between the people at the company.
Cameos I loved: my otp from Find me in your memory, and also lawyer's older sibling.
