Such a cute rom com
I have been out of the loop with kdramas since around mid 2024. I’ve been able to start some kdramas and other media like thai bls. But it was really hard for me to get into them, I was basically in a slump. I’ve been able to finish like 2-3 kdramas in the past year and i’m still stuck on some like Squid Game S3 and Sweet Home S3 with 1-2 episodes left. I remember seeing a teaser around mid July for this drama and I loved Kim Hyejun in Inspector Koo and A Shop for Killers S1 so I set a reminder to watch it. I didn’t set any expectations because I’ve not had great luck with continuing ongoing kdramas at all. It started a little cliche and cute, but that’s exactly what I needed. Week after week MBMB made me happy to look forward to Mondays and Tuesdays. Watching every episode made me giddy, I loved watching the TVN behind the scenes, and gasping at the clips that they cut. The chemistry between Hyejun and Kanghoon kept me wanting more. The plot was not complex, and it honeslty didn’t need to be. It was juggling many storylines at once like Hagi and his mom, Hagi+Chan+Jeongyeon, DNX, Apello spy, second lead couple, and ofc the love triangle. I applaud everyone who worked on this drama to deliver a perfect rom com, it had everything from great osts, comedy, emotion, romance, and a great big cast. I felt like we got to see how real the office setting was and all the hard work that they were putting in. Obviously there was that cliche accidental kiss, but I loved it. They made up for it with 2 great kisses in the next few episodes. I also enjoyed that Ha-gi and Chan were able to reconcile in the end. Even Jeong-yeon and Dareum became friends and ended up working together. Some dramas can’t wrap everything up in a nice big bow like MBMB did, they were able to make conflicts and have solutions at the end. Rhis is such a feel good show, and I’m so glad I was able to experience it while it was airing. I’m just glad tha MBMB allowed me to get back into kdramas. I already watched A Shop for Killers S2 and not a shocker, Hye-jun was great. I so glad I had this kdrama to make me happy and I transitioned back into college and I hope to continue back in my regular routine of kdrama watching!

One of the best dramas of the year
This drama was one that I looked forward to seeing the most this year. It definitely exceeded my expectations. The last dramas that made me feel like this were probably 2521 and Alchemy of Souls. All the actors did an amazing performance and this was an overall perfect drama. I liked how it highlighted something that we don’t see a lot in kdramas and in tv in general, being deaf. They also made sure that it was known that being deaf is not a burden and you can still have a normal life like anyone else while being deaf. I really hope to see Seol Inah and Ryeun in another project, their chemistry was too good.
