Fell flat at the finishing line
I picked this up cause i love Shin Hae Sun and i'm obviously going to watch her acting one more. In first episodes, the story didn't quite hook me but Gong Myoung was superb and that surprised me and kept me coming back. Story certainly felt refreshing at the start and tried to do something new, with solid comedy included.
I liked SFLs character, it's not usual to have MLs friend to be woman and i thought her character was also pretty unconventional but i just apphor how they've managed to butcher that unconventionality to cliched revengeful SFL character, i just don't care about her anymore.
SML was made bit too unlikable for me to switch my opinion at the point where he was switched up from that to misunderstood character. Now i just don't care about SML or SFL at all and since they have been getting increasing screen time, my interest just vanished on the drama.
The story seemed to be going in to direction to be commentary of the whole audit team and their work but somewhere along the journey the message just went out of the window and it turned it to the cliched rom-com story which might've been okay if it was like that from the start, now i just don't care enough to continue.
Both leads have done great acting wise but i don't think their story is enough anymore to keep me watching the last episodes.
Conclusion
Classic kdrama pitfall happened that start was decent and it just devolved into a mess at the latter parts, everyone is acting well but the story is just so meh, especially SML and SFL which just turned me off from this. If you go with expectations that this is cliched rom-com it might be good one time watch but don't let the start confuse you if you start this.
