I have very mixed feelings about this drama. I initially started to watch the show because I love Kim Yoo Jung in Clean with a Passion. She's only 22 and yet she acts so well and beyond her age. I will watch anything she is in. I'm a fan of Ji Chang Wook, but his dramas are hits or miss with me. I know there is a 12 year age difference, but I kind of wished they got a cast a touch closer in age.

1.) I didn't like the comedy aspect of the show. I felt like it's very angsty driven / miscommunication driven / tension filled comedy. You have the typical annoying family, the lazy bum best friend and main lead chasing after the annoying ex. There really wasn't anything making me hold on to the show. I need "cute" scenes.

2.) I didn't like the pacing of the show. There was a lot of tension between the two leads and like the other reviewers commented it's awhile before they both see each other romantically. It's a one-sided crush for a LONG time. I couldn't stand that.

3.) A few reviews touch on this, but some don't and I think it's worth mentioning. As an American, I let a lot of things slide because it's a difference in culture. Like when I watch a C drama and they nick name one of their characters "fatty". Okay I get it in a C drama, but that would not fly in American. We are touchy like that.

So the racist undertones in the drama is a little uncomfortable. I should explain that I am Asian - American, so I understand cultural differences, but this is 2021 people. I'm not watching a Kdrama from 20 years ago. I was really surprised they had a Korean actor with dredge locks and displayed as someone who is "dirty" and doesn't bathe. It added no value to the drama and it also acted as a "comedy" filler.

Don't write a character to fill in a time spot in a drama. It needs to have value and heart. That's my two cents on the subject.

4.) This is a minor spoiler, but they didn't even kiss. I can't stand that in dramas. It's just as bad when C dramas do a fake kissing. What's the point in watching a rom com if I can't even get a slight peck on the lips?

I like to see more rom coms where the writing is based on mutual respect and kindness. You don't always have to make people annoying and mean to make "tension". There are clever ways to add tension and in a non-annoying and non-racist way. (like I said, that's my two cents)
