In the world of Korean romcoms, the Cinderella complex often dominates, where female leads relying on male counterparts for the assistance and support. However, this show defies the norm by presenting a female lead who is refreshingly independent yet adorable and romantic. The chemistry between the main characters is great, and in its own simple way adds some intrigue to the storyline.
The secondary couple was also interesting, particularly with Kim Ji-hoon's charming presence in a romcom after his remarkable villain role in a serious show like "Flower of Evil". The choice of a rockish OST over the typical pop tunes seen in kdramas is also a pleasant deviation, made the whole watch even more fun.
Finally, I think it was a great idea to go with a more concise 10-episode format, instead of the usual 16 episodes of kdramas that often result in unnecessary plot dragging and convoluted yet dumb twists in the final act of the story.
Overall, this kdrama romcom stands out as a breath of fresh air and ranks among the best in the genre.
