This review does have spoilers but only for the first two episodes because I dropped it right after the end of ep 2.

I'm someone who gives benefit of the doubt for a lot of things. People tend to judge how they will like something off of face value or first impression. Sometimes, you need to give things time, whether that be a TV show, movie, people, or even clothes and certain styles, haha. I gave the same amount of benefit of doubt for this drama because 1) I love a good noona romance. It's not really a huge age gap but it's still counted as a noona romance in my book, haha. 2) It seemed to have favorable reviews from most people. 3) I needed something new to watch and binge it, haha.

A review said that the first couple of episodes were a slow burn so I went into this drama knowing that and would give it at least 5 episodes. I didn't even make it to 3 episodes and I'll tell you why.

This is where the spoilers for ONLY the first two episodes begin. No other spoilers beyond episode 2 will be written here for the obvious reason that I never made it beyond episode 2.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF FIRST TWO EPISODES:
Basic premise is ML likes FL but is antsy and a bit shy to confess it because of the dynamic that they share as senior and junior. ML is gearing up to confess up until he sees that FL actually does have a boyfriend. He's let down and considers letting her go until, the boyfriend is seen with another woman other than FL. This makes ML super bitter towards boyfriend and resolves that FL has the right to know of his two-timing ways. ML demands that FL (seriously, he DEMANDS her) meet him after work to tell her something important. FL decides to see ML to see what is so important and they are off to go see boyfriend with other woman and on the way ML confesses his feelings to her. FL sees her boyfriend with other woman and is shocked. ML says that he wanted to give FL the chance or choice to stand up for herself against her boyfriend and the truth that was revealed to her. He tries to explain further but she is upset that he interfered in her personal life. (Bish, I would be upset too!!) ML is told by sister that he needs to wait for FL now to make her own decision but of course, ML is too antsy and tries to approach FL several times despite knowing that she may be going through a difficult time and was told by FL to literally "F" off. Then we come to episode 2 ending and FL comes to ML and asks him what that choice is. Basically, she wants to get revenge over boyfriend. ML then proposes that they date each other.

My MAIN REASON why I dropped this show after two episodes is because this ML is just so freakin pushy, his actions were a little selfish, and tendency to be inconsiderate until the last minute or when it's too late. I just can't. He doesn't like how FL treats him like a kid but then does childish things. The boyfriend works at the same company as ML and FL. So when ML found out about boyfriend's other woman, he DID NOT make any effort to conceal his anger or spite towards him and was very disrespectful towards his superior in the office in front of others. That is just not wise or professional. Then he DEMANDS FL to follow him somewhere which is really rude. If you can't contain your emotions then you need to take a step back, get calm and think through it again. And last but not least, I was most upset about him thinking that revealing the truth to the FL was somehow a good thing. I understand that maybe he had good intentions for doing it but it was NOT RIGHT for him to interfere in her life like that. And then at the end of episode two, says they should DATE EACH OTHER?!?! To get revenge against boyfriend?!?! Flippin A!! NO!

I think a lot of people misunderstand, just because someone has good intentions for doing something wrong doesn't erase the fact that it was wrong to do in the first place. Good intentions don't sustain a relationship, actions do! And actions like that will never sustain a HEALTHY relationship for long. I'm just really disappointed in how the ML was created and represented here. It could have been a really good slice of life/romance drama too. I have a guilty pleasure of enjoying dramas that do that have some cliche factors to them but this drama pushed it a little too hard with the stereotype character flaws and plot cliches and is just too much for me to overlook.
