Instead of focusing only on sweet and predictable love stories, it brings a unique and sometimes ridiculous concept that makes the drama stand out.

The situations are often exaggerated and unusual, but that's exactly what makes it entertaining. The relationship between main leads creates many funny moments because their personalities are completely opposite. Junko is an independent woman who dreams of working overseas, while Takane is a serious monk with a very straightforward and sometimes extreme way of expressing his feelings. Their interactions are awkward, funny, and surprisingly enjoyable to watch.

What I liked about this drama is that it doesn't try to be a perfect romance. It embraces its weirdness and turns it into the main attraction. Some scenes made me laugh because they were so unexpected, and the drama has a different atmosphere compared to more traditional romantic stories.

Of course, the story may not work for everyone. Takane's personality and some of his actions can feel too much, and the romance might seem unrealistic at times. However, if you accept the drama as a fun and comedic love story rather than a serious romance, it becomes much more enjoyable.
