I LOVE THIS DRAMA.
There is an elegance of the story, smoothly go back and forth from present and past. Adding more layers to the characters. It's like an onion, being peel back layer by layer until we fully understand our main leads. The story about her life in the States is fresh, it's fully relatable of a 30-something high achiever experiencing burnt out. And the family relationship especially the mother-daughter is very real and relatable, I cried at some scene because I had the same conversation with my parents.
Overall, we can tell this drama really refine its script before production. The only minor dislike I might have is on the swift changes of our main leads the moment they got together. I would've prefer they retain some of their bickering and teasing even when they become a couple. But instead, they suddenly being all too nice and shy with each other. Because for me, the best part of falling in love with your best friend is that you can be yourself in front of that person.
