I just finished watching this drama and even though I did have fun watching it in the beginning and looked forward to the updates every week, I must say that I'm glad it's over now. Like most dramas, this one lost its charm after about 10 episodes. Nevertheless it managed to entertain me for a few weeks and made me watch until the end to find out how the couple would get over their little age-gap problem.
The plot, as you can see, sounds like a typical kdrama plot. Kind of ridiculous and very hard to believe that something like that would ever happen in the real world. Some of the characters - especially the female lead and her sister - were also quite irritating and just not... realistic. But if you watch a korean romcom, I guess that's what you have to expect anyway.
Apart from the fact that I absolutely didn't like the female leads, I liked both of the male leads so I continued watching. I feel like Lee Soo Hyuk's character had the most potention and I'm sad that they KIND of dropped his storyline towards the last few episodes. I also didn't like how they decided to end his storyline in the last episode, but since I won't spoiler, I guess you have to see it yourself.
The acting was overall ok. As this is a romcom, there were many many ridiculous and exaggerated scenes but I guess you can't really expect brilliant acting for those anyway. Basically all of the sidecharacters (the coworkers, Seo In Guk's friends etc) had a kind of comedic-role so don't expect a deep storyline for them, because nobody besides the main characters will get one.
The OST was really really annoying. And I mean REALLY annoying. I guess it depends on your music taste, but I almost dropped watching this drama at some point because I just couldn't stand the background music...
Overall this was a funny and cute drama. If you are looking for a show that deels with a serious and emotional relationship, than I wouldn't recommend this one. If you want to laugh and see some cute scenes, though, I don't think you could do much wrong with this one. Don't expect a very satisfying ending, though, because this will end just as messed up as the rest of the drama was.
