A Flawed Romcom That Still Hit All the Right Notes for Me
strong 8.5/10
People complain about it, but I honestly enjoyed it. The drama tries to touch on identity, trust, and the idea of family that is not based on blood. These themes are present, but they stay in the background because the main focus is still the romcom. They add a bit of flavor, yet they are not the reason anyone watches this. The real draw is the chemistry, the tropes, and the comfortable chaos.
It also hits several of my personal favorites like shotgun relationship, cohabitation, and amnesia. These tropes usually come with certain predictable funny scenes that repeat across many dramas. Here, they actually created some fresh ones. Not jokes, but situational moments that felt new instead of recycled. It made the whole thing more enjoyable.
The tempo of the drama starts slow. The amnesia arc drags a little, but once it ends, the story suddenly shoots forward and moves much faster. Some viewers complained about the length. I get that. If it had ended around episode 10 and skipped the last two, it would have still worked fine. The amnesia part could have been shorter too, but at least it gave us plenty of cohabitation moments and bonding scenes.
Overall, maybe it does not objectively deserve such a high score, but it hit my personal likes, and that is why it worked so well for me.
