A pure shot of dopamine
Suuuper cute and fun in the beginning but sadly fizzled out by the end. Full of tropes and cliches, but self-aware and doesn't take itself too seriously, the show is an absolute delight in the first 5-6 episodes. I literally almost squealed and laughed out loud on PUBLIC TRANSPORT multiple times while binging this. It's like a pure dose of joy and sunshine.The second main pair grew on me sooo much and I felt more invested in them than in the lead couple. Young-seo and Sung-ho are just 🥺🥺🥺 so precious 🥺🥺🥺
Sad that the second half of the drama became like a conventional kdrama (just like Extraordinary Attorney Woo), losing much of the liveliness and character of the first half.

Rom-Com lovers assemble!
This show is the epitome of a cliché K-drama, but in the best way possible. It has all the classic tropes: the male lead pursuing the female lead, a domineering CEO (with *trauma*, of course), a badass(kinda) female lead, and steamy romance.The chemistry between the ML and FL is OFF THE CHARTS. They share a deep understanding, zero insecurity, and unwavering trust. Once they’re together, they MOSTLY stay together—no unnecessary angst, just two people who go out of their way to be with each other. And as if that wasn’t enough to make you feel painfully single, the second leads come in. The second FL is hands down the coolest character in this show, and her chemistry with the second ML is INSANE; you’ll be begging for a spin-off just for them. The only missing cliché? "Take the money and leave my son." No ugly jealousy plots from "rivals in love".
Plot-wise, there’s nothing groundbreaking, it’s the classic "CEO falls for Cinderella" story, but executed SO WELL that you don’t even care. The music gets a high rating ONLY because of *"Love, Maybe"*—that song is never leaving my playlist. Ever.
This show has become my ultimate comfort watch. Whenever I’m in a slump or out of things to watch, I rewatch it. And since there's no real plot to spoil? ENDLESS REWATCH VALUE. The acting? Decent for a romcom. Expect laughs, butterflies, and falling completely in love with the characters. Most importantly: HAPPY ENDING.

Best Besties and a Drama with REAL CHEMISTRY? This is it!
Okay it's been a week since I watched it and i had to let it sit and marinate before I leave a rating.This drama was HELLA GOOD! I loved the acting and the humour a lot and. there. was. chemistry!!!!
The plot itself was really interesting too, even though it was your almost typical "poor woman meets rich man" drama. It still was very entertaining and I was amazed by the way the characters interacted with each other. Hari's Style is IMMACULATE BY THE WAY. I also adore how hardworking she is.
No Besties Best-ied as hard as Hari and Young-so before. My 21-year-old-heart craves such a friendship even though I feel too old to hope for one haha.
All in all a great drama that portrayed everything really well and stuck with me for a while.
There are some small scenes that i skipped because as far as I can remember, the pace slowed down too much sometimes. Still enjoyable and recommandable! Very nice work!

This Is An Plot Summary of 12 Episodes
Starting few episodes focus on the her & then gradually, when he know the girl he saw on blind date was fake. He gets curious (sort of revenge) but he falls for her later on. Then he tries to maintain the relationship by telling the she should be his fake girlfriend. But later both confess. Also he as a trauma of rain due to his parents accident.Side character of both of their friend had really good chemistry & their character development was good. Nearly comes with some romance sequence for both couples. But at marriage sequence, they just gets approved from both sides of family but only as ring engagement that to as unofficial, like in normal sequence at end they do.No marriage sequence is seen.Overall Good comedy, character development of each other, romance, ring confess but not marriage sequence.

Not the typical office romance
Conventional office romance plot yet crazy good. Timed comedy and nothing overdone. Hats off to the actors, their extraordinary performances made this simple story both interesting and amusing to watch and come back every week.What made it stand out was the absence of typicality as most predicted (*obviously who didn't read the webtoon, like me) and eliminating dreamy stuffs. It actually questioned those to infuse more comedy.
Give a listen to the OST's 'Sun Shower' by MOVNING. Great song, especially the retro vibes in the music and the calmness in his voice.

Humor & Heart for the Win!
A woman goes on a blind date disguised as her best friend only to learn the man is the CEO of her workplace. How will she keep her identity hidden when he proposes a contractual marriage?The love story of this chaotic duo is both hilarious and heartwarming. Filled with crazy antics to keep the secret from being exposed plus happy-dance inspiring scenes of the Leads (and co-leads!) claiming and protecting one another, this drama definitely delivers a fun watch.
I’m not a fan of the intentionally deceiving people about your identity trope, but I still quite enjoyed this show. The cast does a great job portraying their characters and all the things they’re going through. Plus, there’s amazing chemistry between the four main people. Both sets are total friendship goals AND couple goals! 💖 I loved how there wasn’t any backstabbing or drama trauma between the four. They had each others backs and were 💯 loyal and true. And they took those same characteristics into their romantic relationships.
I loved the interactions between both couples and how they could all be so different yet complement each other so perfectly. They found strength and healing with one another and I think that’s such a beautiful testament to the power of love. And I really loved how these independent, successful, hard-working adults were still really playful and innocent individuals. I think it’s a great message that we don’t have to become harsh and unfeeling to survive in this world. Kindness is a strength in and of itself 🙂

a refreshing take on old tropes
are you tired of the old cliche of rich man poor woman and its sexist overtones? me fucking too.hence my reluctance to start another CEO x bubbly employee drama. is it trope-y? yes, but it handles these tropes with respect for the characters that ifound refreshing and fun. the most obvious case is the FL, who instead of being a pathetic dormat clinging to her boss personally and professionally, is a charismatic, hard-working, unapologetically sexy woman. she's built a strong frienship with the second lead and has a stable family unit. in other words, a whole world before ML even enters the picture. add to this that Sojeong is INSANELY talented. you have a recipe for cute rimance that you can rewatch guit free
the negatives:
-the 2nd couple kiss while being black out drunk. she was too inebriated to give consent. stop this shit
-no representation. yeah i know it's a kdrama but it's a negative in any medium
-some moments were dragged out way beyond the comedy
-mildly possesive and entitled male lead.
-the actor can't act. sorry. he is going to ruin another season of Dr Romantic
-not enough 2nd couple, i needed a lot more, they were cute and mature and sexy
positives:
everything else!

... boring
the first two episodes were good. this drama, as many, is full of cliches but it seemed nevertheless enjoyable. the male protagonist is the "cool cold hearted business guy" but he drops the act right at the end of the second episode. by the third one he was already in love. his behaviors are shown to be "romantic" but If you take away the romantic music, they appear to be controlling and frankly "stalking" like.the main protagonist was endearing.
the should have explored more the "business side" of the deal, but as I said, they were already in love after 3 episodes. a missed opportunity.
as many Korean drama they drag it a bit too long and put a lot of plot "twist" at the very end.
overall it is an enjoyable Rom com but nothing to write home about.

idk
It was a great show BUT IT TOOK THEM 9 EPs TO GET TOGETHER LIKE WTHH but the story line was amazing. I wasn't a big fan of music, but the storyline, the acting casting, everything—it was fabulous. I watched this 3–4 times. Highly recommended! If you are into romantic dramaslittle to no intercourse (which is good!)scenes, but the second couple had it twice.
