HATED IT !!
i have watched a lot of drama and i enjoyed almost all of them, but this one, i had to force myself to finish it.So, did I finish this drama? Yes, I did
Did I enjoy it? No, I hated it
I love contracted marriages or relationships, so i was really excited when i read the plot, but when i watched it, i got so disappointed because of how much i hated the storyline.
The beginning was enjoyable, but later I got really bad, and I really don't get why it has such a high rating?
i have finished it a while ago but im still bothered by how much i hated it, just looking at the title and poster makes me mad in some way, especially when i see how high the rating is.
So i would not recommend it, but you could still watch it to choose a side. because there are lots of people who did enjoy it. But if I was you, I would not waste my time watching this drama

WATCH IT !
loved it!It's been a while since I binge-watched a show because I'm not enjoying it as much as I used to. but this brought the k-drama magic back for me.
I have loved the actress Gong Hyo Jin since watching Jalousy incarnate (don't dare to dream), and again, her performance was amazing!
Something I loved the most about this drama was the character, Hwang Yong Shik's personality. I would be so lucky if I get a man who would act and show me his love for me, like Hwang Yong Shik.
If you haven't watched it yet, you definitely should!and my concern before watching was that I had a bad ending or that it was too dark. But no, it has a happy ending, and there is crime, but the episodes are still not dark and have a good vibe.
My only complaint is that the ending wasn't rushed, but I just would have loved to see them more because I really liked it.
A funny thing is that it took me two days to finish the last episodes because I was procrastinating them because I didn't want them to end.It took me 2 days to watch 18 episodes, but 2 days for only the last 2 haha.
But again, go watch it if you haven't!

EVERYONE IS LYING, ITS BADDDD
I watched this drama after seeing all the glowing reviews, and honestly, I was so disappointed. Everyone kept talking about how funny it was, but I didn’t find any of it funny? Sure, there was a part where she trips him, which I guess some people might think is humorous, but it just didn’t do it for me. I feel like I got tricked into watching it.The plot was also a letdown. At first, I thought it was going to be about how anyone can be bad, regardless of gender, which would’ve been interesting. But no, it just turned into both main characters being sexist and judgmental towards the opposite gender. While some of the stuff they said is worth talking about, the way they handled it was just bad. He hates women, she hates men, but somehow, they don’t hate each other? Really?
The romance made no sense either. She starts off not trusting him, thinking he’s a creep, to the point where she stalks him just because she saw him talking to a younger girl—which felt totally obsessive and unnecessary. Then, out of nowhere, she’s okay with him kissing her? Where’s the character development? One second she hates him, and then, suddenly, they’re in love? It felt rushed and forced.
And don’t even get me started on that cringe line, “You’re not like other girls.” Seriously, who wrote this script?
The second couple’s storyline wasn’t any better. At first, I thought they were cute, but then it got frustrating. The guy was too scared to tell her he liked her, even after she basically gave him four chances to admit it. Grow up and just say something! His confession in the last episode was even worse. He gets down on one knee to ask her to be his girlfriend? It was so awkward—you’re not proposing, get up!
Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this drama. I honestly don’t get why people liked it so much, aside from the fact that it touched on gender roles, which was refreshing but completely overshadowed by a bad story. If you’re looking for something worth your time, watch "My Sweet Mobster" instead—that one was actually good. Don’t waste 10 hours on this.

LOVED IT!!
i have seen a lot of dramas, but there are only a few, which i would add to my ''best drama'' list and i would with this one.Its been a while since I have finished it, but it is still stuck in my head and I keep thinking about how much I loved it.
My favorite part was the romance of Lin Xiao Chunand. but I enjoyed all storylines.
i first watched some clips of this serie on youtube and i really enjoyed it so i decided to watch the full show and i fell in love. so if you're not sure, i would also recommend to just watch some clips on the channel ''asiancrush'' of this show and hopefully you will also watch it and fall in love like i did!!
( side note: if you're not sure if you wanna watch this one or the Korean, i would recommend this one. because I have seen both, but I liked this one more)

10/10
I have nothing negative to say about this drama. It's a well-written coming-of-age story with realistic plotlines and emotions. It made me reflect a lot on life, relationships, and the idea of a 'happily ever after.' I appreciated seeing different types of love portrayed and how a breakup can happen without any major conflict, which felt very authentic and a valuable lesson for everyone.I've watched many Korean BL dramas, and most have disappointed me, but this one didn’t. It had depth, genuine romance, and solid storytelling. I’m glad they didn’t give in to the pressure from Korean netizens who wanted to cancel the drama, allowing us to enjoy this amazing story.

I really liked the story but I do admit that there where some question that where unanswered when I finish it, but I can live with that, so I didn't really bother me. and I think the drama was a good and typical k-drama. I loved the romantic scene between the leads but I do wish they would have added a romantic scene in last episode. A lot of people didn't like the ending and I get why they say that but I thought it was an okay/good ending cause in the mid of the 15e episode they had solved everything and as a writer you can choose to have a new something that has to be solved or a new struggle, or you can you have the last 1,5 episodes with some cute and romantic scene and resolve some unanswered question if there are any. And I would have preferred if they did that, but they didn't, because they made a new problem/struggle that had to be solved and I think that a lot of people didn't like that decision. But I didn't think it was such a bad decision because I still enjoyed the last 2 episodes. The humor at the beginning was funny, but later in the episodes I did miss the funny scene they had in the first couple of episodes. And I do wish they would have added a romantic scene at the last episode but it was still cute to watch the main lead even if they didn't kiss and the kiss in episode 10 was a really good kiss and probably of my favorite kiss sence (spoiler is coming) mostly because I really loved the shower kiss sence in introverted boss and this reminded my of that kiss scene (spoiler is over)
I would definitely recommend this drama and I don't get why people would stop at episode 7 or 9 cause I watched the first 11 episodes in 1 day and the only time I did that was with decadence of the sun. So don't listened to people who say you shouldn't watch it cause it's a good drama.
(this is my first review, so I hope I did a good job at writing the review.and also English is my 3 language so sorry if I wrote something that was wrong)

i liked it
I would recommend you to watch it, because the plot is very different from other dramas. and the two main leads are amazing actors who I've admired for a long time.I loved the storylines of the two main leads, but I didn't like the storyline of ''Kang Hae Jin. I watched it reluctantly at first, but eventually I just skipped his parts because I didn't enjoy them, and his story had nothing to do with the main character's story, so I thought it was very unimportant and unnecessary to give him so much screen time.
I also disliked the last episode because I think what they did was very unnecessary.
but overall I enjoyed the rest of the drama, so I would recommend you to watch it, but do keep in mind that you may not like every storyline because I didn't.
