What it says on the tin
I came late to the whole Wooju Bakery hype so I only had to wait like a month for this to come out. I understand how people could feel disappointed with the show given the amount of delays, hype and time it had surrounding it.Saying that, I think the hate this show is receiving is unnecessary.
Is it high budget? No
Is the story line all over the place? Yes
Are there cuts and missing scenes everywhere? Also yes
BUT! Having seen the trailer many times before the show aired, it never came across as a show to be taken seriously. It's camp, silly and just fun to watch. There's not really any drama, no difficult plot line to follow and plenty of moments to cringe and facepalm at. Jeff and Barcode's chemistry, like always, is phenomenal. The casual playfullness and softness that they bring to Raon and Wooju is a breath of fresh air after the heartbreak that is KimChay.
I am so glad that Studio on Saturn fought for compensation for the cast and crew, and that this show was finally able to air. It's going to be something I rewatch when I need some happiness. I'm also glad that Jeff and Barcode were able to work together again, and I cannot wait to see what happens with Happy Ending!
TL;DR - Is it the best executed show out there? No. But it's fun to watch and brings a happiness that we all need, especially with how the world is right now.
