What's this drama even about?

I just finished this drama and I’m genuinely confused about whether it even had a plot. I haven’t read the novel, so I don’t know how faithful the drama is to it, but it started off promising and then went downhill fast. The main misunderstanding turned out so ridiculous that it barely justified anything that followed. The whole leaving medicine to do something completely unrelated arc felt pointless. He could have just been her manager with a past connection and the story would have stayed exactly the same.
Once they became a couple, it was peak cringe. The male lead felt like an overly performative green flag rather than a real person and I love green flag MLs in C-dramas....
The last four episodes had no plot, just stretched-out fluff and unnecessary additions like the marriage/kid storyline. Acting was mid overall, and honestly the only reason this drama has a good rating is probably because of the cast. Even after finishing it, I’m still wondering what this drama was actually about.
