Why did I start before it was finished?
At the 8 episode mark I asked that myself because I was invested and interested, at the end I ask that because, damn, this Kdrama fell into all the possible traps.
8th ep.:
It’s refreshing to watch a funny kdrama because it was written to be funny and because actors can deliver the material. Although I can not tell you “why” I find it so laugh out loud funny, even if my life depended on it. The humour is often so on the nose and campy, thus I fully understand it is not for everyone.
Besides the humour, I love the “slow burn” romance of this series, I understand and more crucially, Believe the mutual care and love the main characters feel for each other. I am extremely grateful to the writers and actors for this tasty morsel.
To balance the review out, I also wish to share my one annoyance about the story: the plot progression relies too heavily on miscommunication. I believe it goes against Shin Seo Ri’s character to hide from Cha Se Gye his brothers' scheming and threats (which are also becoming repetitive with the aunt and fiancee).
The end:
It truly became too repetative and too reliant on the side charecters as well as fallen into the product placement hell. God damn, and it had real potential...
