As this was one of the first K-dramas I ever watched, the sense of novelty kept me interested for longer than I would have been had I watched this drama at a later time. The set up is definetly interesting for both the characters and the plot but it seems as if the writers completely lost it and where just winging it by the end.
Personally I wouldn't accuse either Kim You Jung or Song Kang of being strong actors, so their 'chemistry' to me just read as two attractive people trying to act that they're falling in love. Slow-mo shots, accidental touching and closed proximity is a natural part of a rom-com, but when that is all you can offer in the 'chemistry' department it feels extremelly superficial.
Of course, every drama won’t suit everyone’s taste, but for those who like genuine emotional depth over glossy aesthetics and trope heavy romance, this one might fall short.
