I’ve waited for season two to come out and of course it’s amazing!! I bought the whole series on Vimeo and it’s affordable and definitely worth it.
You can tell that the channel, NEEZ has invested more in season 2 compared season 1. Which is an improvement as they placed English sub in each episode for it as well as the change in set. I’m glad there are finally more representation for the LGBT+ community on shows, especially if it’s international.
This webseries, is light hearted and tells a story about a woman, Jung-ah who has a crush on her manager who is called manager lee at her workplace. It’s relatable and makes you want to squeal every time both of them interact. I ship these two sooo hard!
It also doesn’t dwell too much about sexuality but focuses on the relationship that exist between these two characters. I really like how they portray that it’s the norm for Jung-ah to have a crush on her manager and doesn’t overdramatise it.
I hope in the future more channels like this create more LGBT+ related webseries/shows for people to watch as it creates hope for the younger generation that whatever sexuality they come into terms to, it’s okay for themselves to be who they are. As well as that there are shows they can watch and relate to.
Overall, it’s worth watching if you want to relate to someone who is having a crush on a woman who they think they can’t have but who knows actually...

Certainly, there are butterflies indeed!
Well, i am a man who likes women. This is my line of thought and feel… If i said something wrong, please excuse and clarify me!STORY - i really like the story, the pace, the way Jung Ah deals with her innermost thoughts and feelings. It is a love story, or maybe more of a crush between Jung ah and her boss Lee Ji Won. Manager Lee is awesome, a wonderful boss and a beautiful person. I was rooting for them, having the feeling that maybe Manager Lee also likes Jung Ah.
Their relation is amazing, very warm with butterflies in one of them and something different, I guess, on the other…
CAST / ACTING – I think they made a wonderful job! Despite there are 4 to 5 characters, this drama is all about Jung Ah and Manager Lee. There relation is fluffy, sweet, responsible and mature. MUSIC – did not pay attention so I really do not know.
REWATCH – Certainly I will watch it if I have the chance. It is beautiful, short and it made me feel happy. I hope I can watch it with someone at my side and share the feelings.
OVERALL – short, beautiful, love the way the story goes … If you like a beautiful story of office romance you should watch it too. The acting, the simplicity, the rhythm and the story are worth of your time.

Second season didn't exactly pick up when the first one ended but I didn't mind it that
much as it was still explained well. There
were once again many heart-fluttering and
sweet scenes between the two female leads
although nothing was shown explicitly but
there was a really romantic hand holding
scene, one of my favourites. 🥺 And at the
end they finally went on a date together. I
think the drama ended well but one part of
me still wishes for a third season although it
probably won't happen since it has been
three years already since the second one.
My rating for the second season is again 9/10.

Cute office crush but slow
THE GOOD:I generally liked this drama but it didn't do a whole lot other than cute flirting. I think as long as you manage your expectations then you may enjoy this a lot, if office romance crush is what you are looking for.
There are some nuances to these characters that are a bit richer than many of this kind of web shorts. The crushing FL is cringe of course as she should be, but she also has a bit of backbone and willingness to put herself out there, which is a careful balance that they handle very cutely.
The boss FL is also well controlled, though she doesn't get to do very much due to the unwillingness to move the pacing forward nearly ever.
THE BAD:
What is slower than slow-burn? They spent 2 seasons doing the same cycle of having a crush on your boss and being awkward with her. It is cute but it is just circled over and over, and to a degree that is kind of hard to believe. Like if you always just stare dumbfounded at your boss, once is a little cringe, but it was pretty much 100% of the time. Every single elevator she is going to have to wake you up to get in?
Yeah this is light fluff, so we have to set our suspension of disbelief very high or else her behavior is way over the top. Still as long as you do that, there is cute stuff here.
The big other problem with the "pace" is just there is almost no pay off. The fact that they did an entire season 1 and didn't even have any resolution was already kind of crazy, but even with the ending of season 2, we only get a few hints that the feelings are reciprocated. No confession. No verbalizing our feelings. Were they expecting a THIRD season to flesh that out? I guess we will never know, it has been years now.

The continuation that adds nothing to our understanding of the characters but is still sweet.
Contrary to where the previous season's credits left off, season 2 does not pick up right where the story ended.The dynamic between Jung Ah and Manager Lee remains exactly the same as before, though the unaddressed cliffhanger leaves the situation feeling awkward now. To distract us from our lingering questions, the bare-bones plot of these four episodes tries to add some tension by introducing a challenger for Manager Lee's attention. And yet, somehow this season feels more disjointed than the previous one and I can't seem to place my finger on exactly why.
We are treated to some occasionally sweet moments between our main characters and a blink-and-you'll-miss-it throwback to the first season, which is nice for anyone who just wants to see more of the same! Unfortunately, the company office space has changed. It's a colder and more sterile environment than the warm and cozy office of the first season, so the characters feel less at home in that space.
Predictably, this season has an open ending, leaving us once again to ponder the same question we've been hearing from the very first episode. At least the title still tracks!
