There is difference between innocence and stupidity
I really liked the way the drama has started and the way ML and FL built their relationship. The way second lead manipulated the relation of main couple using her FL innocence and lead them to breakup really set the tone for a good second half . However that’s where the writer lost his brain and so is our Female lead. FML being stupid and not able to understand her mistakes builds a relationship with the guy who manipulated their relation as if she never cared a darn about male lead. That’s where I feel it’s good to say that our female lead is pure stupid with no brain who cannot live in this manipulative society.What makes it even worse is that when our male lead moved on and finding his way in his life she comes back. She didn’t listen when male lead begged, when male lead mother tried to talk. But when she suddenly feels like his crush is getting taken away she needs him back. She doesn’t bother how male lead feels when she was spending her time with a man who acted like her friend, when she dated other guy, when she broke up with him for herself being petty…. But she is hurt and we all are supposed to feel bad when her boy crush getting stolen WOW.
She never repent for thee misery she brought in male lead and his family. Even worse the antagonist who done all the manipulation was never caught or he never accepted his wrongdoings. Surely a drama we all should forget. IMO male lead should stay away from this brainless female because tomorrow if someone acts like her friend and frame her husband as cheater, she will divorce her husband too. Such is her character. And the drama never shows her character development, she is still the same brainless grown 32 year old kid who listens others and act stupid.
I regret watching this painful stupidity of 40 episodes. ( excluding the initial love moments of our main lead which is far less compared to the time spent on showing the sly manipulation of antagonist ) Writer should feel ashamed that he cannot give a complete story even with 40 episodes. Shame on you dude.

Bundle of negativity and failure with no big story or entertainment !!
The drama is full of negativity and failures which will make you wonder why you really need this drama when you reach the end. The female lead is an workaholic character who doesn’t need family or love. Or should I say she was trained that way by her lead Lu Mang who himself had to divorce his family and live a lonely life for his workaholic nature to put work ahead of everything else.There is no big story and it’s all about how everyone make others suffer with their motive to succeed and live their dream to be a great entrepreneur. The drama starts with FL being ditched by her ex for his own selfish motive to succeed and we see her doing the same to others .
By the end, to compensate all the mess they had created, they done a documentary about Internet abuse for one whole episode. That’s the only good outcome out of otherwise meaningless 40 episodes. Just by using the child sentiment , a good documentary and a happy ending they tried their best to cover up everything else, then I wondered if a few happy episodes can really tally the misery we all faced in the rest of episodes ?
Finally, Even after FL hurting and leaving ML in pain during his tough times, there is a happy ending with our ML as usual like her puppy accepting her anytime she wants and thrown away anytime she doesn’t want. Interestingly even when the Ml asked her out for dinner for the last time she prioritised her lead and spent time with him including a dinner outing lol. So much for her love !!! So much for character growth !!!
To keep the review spoiler free, I shall stop myself from elaborating the characters here. My advice for you is to look elsewhere if you are looking for a good office / romance / any genre drama.
Writer of this drama should seriously reconsider his profession and save people from wasting their time with his useless creations.

A good story spoiled by dragging it for longer episodes than it needed
Yes, like the title says the story was impressive. Especially the way our couple meet and get to know each other through their anonymous dinner dates is a breath of fresh air. Acting, casting, music all looked spot on except the decision to take it for 16 episodes.I mean the story is cute and awesome but it isn’t a very long one which requires 16 episodes. I think they should have made it only as 12 episodes drama and removed many scenes which were spent on focusing the violent love of ex lovers. Even if they really needed a 16 episode drama, they should have at least created another capable side plot or office romance with the available characters.
Another complaint is that there were not many sweet moments of our main couple once they got together. It was very annoying when the story’s main pillar is romance. Instead they kept on dragging by the ex lovers to irritate us.
Overall I enjoyed with help of forward button. But this drama will go into my list of capable heart fluttering awesome dramas ruined by writers. I am sad that the drama which started very promising got dragged on and bored me enough to never pay a revisit. Seriously I would have rewatched it a few times if only things were done right since I really loved the story and leads.

Watch until they beakup
The story was new, breezy and interesting in the first half where they both fall in love for each other. There were several promisingly side stories like a young band of FL friends, a blind legendary secret song writer, a cheerful blind girl, FL mother unaware of ML rich capable background, innocent love ….Then the writer has decided to follow that usual boring pattern rather than using any of those side stories. Thus ruining the second half of drama i.e. after they breakup for no real reason. Watch first half and end it there. Good luck.

Amusing revenge tale
I generally avoid drama involving terrible breakup, annoying love triangle and cheating. But I decided to give it a go since this drama is very short and the beginning was interesting enough to get me glued. I am glad for once a writer clearly know my style of story. The story is all about giving it back what those trash deserve and moving forward in life for good.I am happy that the friends rightly called that trash as an embarrassment and horrible memory to put him on place. And had a happy ending to become together.
Would have rated it full. But as much as I am someone who crave romance everywhere, it felt unwanted here. Maybe because the lot of slow-mo and dreamy stuffs couldn’t match the charm and reality of other scenes ? That’s a personal opinion though ! The every day get together in coffee vending machine and the first time outing of bartenders when their bar got closed for repair works were super sweet and attractive though.
Finally I appreciate that the girls took the matter in their own hands rather than clinging to ML for help. Women today have more heart and courage in life than men. Be it love, life or business.

An adorable moving love tale
It may not come real considering how scared we all are to the strangers. That’s how the world we live has become, a place full of threats and dangers with a few safe spots. Them if you put your faith and travel with this movie it does move your heart in good way. Very light with no sad moments to lighten up your day. Good watch if you aren’t gonna poke your nose into logic.Conversations and the lead chemistry will never disappoint you. It will make you crave for more ! More of their time together so that we can smile gleefully ?
I rated it 9 since it delivers what the makers hoped for in a sincere heartfelt way !!! If you aren’t here to watch very light weight adorable love story, you should skip it.

Better stay away unless you have plenty of time to waste like me
The title of the drama already has drawn many comparisons to the Chinese version. If you are checking this review to ask which version is better, it is certainly the Chinese version with no doubt.Coming back to the review of Thai version, I believe the main drawback is the failure to emote and connect viewers with the feelings. Most of the scenes felt with no life in them, the first half of the drama was a lot memorable to me due to Female lead. She is a breath of fresh air to Thai drama and single handedly lifted the first half in many occasions with her charm. Then the second half got much worse that the drama managed to pulled down her charms together.
What went wrong ?
1. The second ML / love rival character “time”. He has no connection to the story at all. He simply came just to play a love rival character and annoy audience.
2. Boring scenes of science. There was an episode where ML travels for his experiment right after the couple together. There the forced scientific stuffs where testing our patience. We do get excited and wooed when science is used intelligently but not use it for namesake.
3. ML boring acting ? Although ML looked charming and handsome, his acting isn’t good enough to carry this character.
4.Unnecessary breakup by the end along with the hate from both side parents. They didn’t even try to solve those issues to give a proper conclusion and instead played it all fun in unconvincing way.
5. Many scenes felt like fillers. You can easily skip half of this drama without losing any content ….
