Heartwarming story of personal growth

This worked really well for me as a chronicle of the ML's personal growth. He was such a lovable guy that my heart ached to see him suffering so much, and I was so invested in watching him work on overcoming his anxiety and self esteem issues. The show did a good job balancing its comedic and dramatic moments. I also liked how the drama focused primarily on him changing his mindset rather than his circumstances and that his happy ending didn't come from making lots of money of getting a super fancy career. I'm not sure I 100% buy into the leads as having some great love story (it didn't help that time that could have been spent developing their relationship was wasted on an engagement misdirect between the FL and the second ML near the end) but I did enjoy watching them bond as they worked to solve his ED together and I was convinced the FL had also engaged in some much needed personal growth over the course of the series.
