Cuteness will only carry you so far.
I'm familiar with the male lead, Kang Tae Oh. I wasn't familiar with the FL, Lee Sun Bin (even though she had a small guest role in "Uncanny Counter").
I will say, "Potato Lab" had me going with all of the beautiful cinema angles, nice production sets, and great-looking leads. The cuteness and adolescent-like navigation of the leads seemed okay. And I was rolling with it with a smile on my face. Especially the car wash scene. But eventually, all of that cuteness wore out. IMO, after the smoke cleared, the lack of a real solid story for the leads to navigate through was exposed. All the way until the final credits.
I understand pain and conflict, but the behavior began to feel more like childishness. The supporting cast didn't have any real job to support the leads. (Not enough story) Other than being nosy and gossiping. because it was all they had. The second love interest couple seemed to have more cohesion. Anyway, it was okay. Even better for someone who's sort of new to Kdramas.
