It's okay not to be okay.. rom-com version

I just know I'm going to be rewatching this one because of the ginormous smile it left on my face at the end and how well they wrapped it. At first, I didn't know how to feel because I wasn't expecting him to have powers, and I prefer highly masculine male leads, and though later he fell more into that category, at the beginning, it looked so unsure of his character that I wanted to drop it. So glad I stuck with it. I just breezed right through it. It was the perfect break from my heavy mystery or deep romance dramas.

LIKES
-A new industry is always interesting
-His character seemed delightful and I hope it stays that way
-it's everything great about your run-of-the-mill rom-com, over the top, bright, light, and heavy, cute love, and everything in between -it's an office relationship ish
-They showed them in a light fun cutesy aegyo love that I rarely see with main characters and it suits them
-how they didn't do an unnecessary breakup and acknowledged that there's no breaking up(over fixable stuff), just a truce
-She switched between kickass to sweet girly and wasn't just masculine the whole time
-OST was killing it, I'm still bouncing and singing it hours later

DISLIKES
-too much craziness with the editing and comedic timing in the first few 10 minutes of the drama, but I get that this is slapstick over the top comedy, so...
-The ajummas overdo it sometimes
-They tried too hard to make him soft and feminine, so that sometimes it took away his charm and made him look like a whimp... They later fixed it.

So all my issues with the characters in the drama in the story were fixed and the end just was so nicely done with no insane breakups or tragedy that it shot up to a 9 out of 10 for me. With really high rewatchability score.
