The series (so far) is one huge cliche -- yet it works!
While the acting is good, the reason the show comes together is the direction and editing (I think -- I am not educated regarding components of filming) -- HOW the scene is filmed contributes a lot to the overall humor.
And it is interesting how the cliches begin to be directly tackled and dismantled (in episodes 4 and 5).
I almost dropped the series after episode 4 because of the borderline-abusive behavior by the male lead -- fortunately I caught the teaser for episode 5 and, even though the borderline-abusive (and cliched) behavior absolutely did occur, the show handled it (reasonably) well -- it shows the heroine reacting in a way that would have been likely to happen -- as in, the behavior has real, negative consequences, and is not immediately forgotten. Thank you for acknowledging reality! However slightly :)
