A script from 2010 only got made in 2026
The whole shows premise with cohabitation and amnesia is peak 2010 or maybe even before that. Was I entertained? Yes
Did I like the characters? Yes
Will I rewatch? I doubt it but who knows.
I think the script was as good as it gets for this premise. I doubt it can be improved further. Compared to other recent shows like my royal nemesis and dynamite kiss, this show manages to keep a good pace. There was no rush towards a happy ending. It was consistent throughout.
The actors were all well cast and suited to their roles. ML was reserved and rather shy but I guess if he was anything else he would’ve been considered a creep. I think the way the FL reciprocated his love quickly was a little out of character given the fact she was a star prosecutor and had a boyfriend in her pre-amnesia world. But I enjoyed the blossoming romance. She was very good in comedy. It reminded me of strong girl bong soon, the cute romcom scenes. But ML was just a bit more boring in this.
The villain was your typical gangster. They went for the almighty plot twist. The hero being the villain’s son. It was giving Star Wars but did I gasp? Oh yes I did. Sometimes these old fashioned tropes are what these dramas need.
Our grandma from every kdrama was here too. At 89 she’s as bright as ever. Loved every moment she was in. Her scenes were the most heartwarming.
The wedding scene was just pure nostalgia. These newer dramas don’t have time for it even if they’re 1.5 hr 12/14 episodes but this one managed to have time to sort the villain out and have a good half an episode to give everyone a nice ending.
