Story
This is how all rom-coms should be! Rom-coms should be just a chill, feel-good drama. The driving force of the plot (conflict) should be just natural drama in their everyday lives. This is why I rate WFKBJ higher than Strong Woman. Strong Woman had to hide the obvious rom-com genre in a plot wherein the main goal of the story was to know who the killer is. In weightlifting fairy, they just focused on the everyday struggles of Kim Bok Joo, who was adorably awkard and cute in every scene. The only thing I didn't like about the story was how long it took for KBJ to get over crush on the doctor. Would've been good if it lasted for 2-3 episodes, but stretching it out 'til episode 9 seems like a reach.
Acting
I honestly wouldn't be shy to claim that I hate Nam Joo Hyuk. Good face, Good abs, terrible, horrible acting. In this drama however, he did okay. He only needed to portray a charming swimmer who longs for his mom and wants to move on from his ex. I think he did an excellent job in this drama. All kidding aside, I still think he kinda sucks (he sucked big time in the next drama he starred in). He needs more practice by having more supporting roles or lead roles like this (non-fantasy, non-melodrama) 9.5/10 for him.
I have no words to describe my admiration for Lee Sung Kyung. I liked her in cheese in the trap. I loved her in doctors. But in this drama, I fell in love with her all over again. She did so well in making us feel who Kim Bok Joo is; strong (literally) but weak when it comes to her heart. She as also adorably cute and funny in almost every scene (I love the scene where she caught NJH on a double date hahahaha) 10/10 for her
The supporting cast was really good as well. Another thing i loved about the show is how they managed to insert Lee Jong Suk as a guest. The scene was so cute and funny.
Music
The OST was good. I searched a lot of songs on spotify and even learned a couple on piano.
Rewatch value
No plot twists. Just pure beauty of the rawness of every life. I'd rewatch this every day, but I will also always skip episodes 4-8 (explained above)
Overall
Definitely a rom-com for the books. My second favorite rom-com of all time (just below I am not a robot and ahead of Strong Woman and Oh my Venus)
