Worth Every Minute!
I just finished this series last week and have already begun rewatching. I’m so glad I fell upon this series!
The boss/male lead does arc - so his annoying character does a full 180 by the time they start dating and even towards the end. And he gets there in the right way and for the right reasons. I felt like they really developed the characters well and touched on some great topics that are difficult to express easily. The ML does have some very admirable qualities as it turns out (tho rough around the edges). The female lead is absolutely adorable and kinda reminds me of a Lucille Ball type of character, but in the cutest & most relaxed way. Both leads are very honest and principled people which really made me respect their characters and the series development as well.
The best part is - no annoying side characters. I loved them ALL and in fact, some of the side characters were my favorite of the entire series.
It’s a very light show with a good amount of fluff, but it does a good job of addressing some tough workplace / life topics so it’s not too superficial or stiff either.
I can’t say enough good things, there were a few moments that dragged out a bit here and there writing-wise but overall it was worthwhile. I also really enjoyed the way it ended. Sometimes series start off really strong and promising, then trail off with a less than satisfying ending. Not so here. I felt what they did was very realistic and wrapped everything up nicely.
I watched this while sick and recovering from surgery - and it was the perfect show to keep my mind engaged & off the pain. If you’re looking for something to really lift your spirits - or just looking for a cute & respectable romcom - or even if you enjoy workplace dramas - this is a good one!
I honestly was not expecting to enjoy this as much as I did - and I think this has made the top of my list for cdrama favorites thus far. It even rivals some of my favorite kdramas like Secretary Kim.
