I'm so sad to complete this drama, I really loved the whole atmosphere and the characters. The aesthetics was also very beautiful and clean. It's a real gem: funny, touching and committed at once!
The main characters are different from what we're used to see. Byun is far from arrogant and brooding male leads hiding their feelings, on the opposite, he's totally open about them and dares to confess (even though he gets rejected a couple of times). I have something for goofy guys as well, it breaks the bland hot male figures. Things often turn out bad for him, it's not too easy like it can be in other dramas.
The female lead also is very interesting, she's not a fragile little bird who needs to be protected all the time nor one who's over-the-top, she's just normal, natural, smart, and can take the lead in the action. She reminded me of Park Shin Hye's characters. Kang So Ra did an amazing job as a charming hard-working young woman who's trying to find the truth about several issues.
We have a real love triangle, both male leads have their pros ans cons. Sometimes one is standing out, then the other. The secondary characters are interesting as well, from Byun's scatty mother who's adorable, Byun's hyung who's a bit scary, the undercover cop, the employees, etc...
The fight between poor and rich is well thought, Byun goes down at the bottom of the hierarchy and has to do back up working hard. He discovers what it's like to actually work, how things are harder than it seems, how helpful it is to be priviledged, etc..
It's a real pleasure to follow this team of friends and colleagues who support each other while struggling with this shady company. One of the best series in this genre!
