Brilliant choice with the cast. Our two main leads have amazing chemistry, and they're both wonderful actors. Really enjoyed the second lead by Song Geon-hee as well. Might be a bit spoiley but I loved what they did with his character, I was rooting for him. Overall though, I absolutely believe the show was carried by Byeon Woo-seok.
Our main character Im Sol, has her heart in the right place, but I don't know where her head is. If I had to describe her actions throughout the series, it would simply be "Doing The Most". Sure, it added a lot of comedic effects and I definitely laughed a lot at her shenanigans. The actress Kim Hye-yoon also helped portray her as "cute" rather than "annoying", but by the end of this story, I was honestly questioning this woman and her poor decision making ability. That's the main reason why this story dragged out. I feel like this could be a great 10 episode story if she just stopped and used her head.
The main lead Ryu Seon Jae was pretty much golden retriever energy through and through which I don't like usually, but the actor Byeon Woo-seok made me change my mind for once, and I thoroughly enjoyed his character. I found him charming and cute when he's being smitten.
Most of the side characters annoyed me and I couldn't care less about the Side Lead. I didn't find them funny, nor cute, it was kinda way too much. They just got on my nerve and it was really difficult to pay attention to the screen when they showed up. Loved the grandma and the begrudgingly supportive friend Baek In Hyeok. The prize goes to Kim Tae Seong. It's worth repeating how much I liked his character. One detail I liked in this show, how she liked the "badboy" image when she was a teenager, but when she grew up she fell for the "nice guy" who gave her life. A bit cliche, but I vibed with it.
There were brilliant directive choices that kept me hooked in the begining, they really tied everything cleanly in the first half of the show. They didn't need an antagonist, the show managed to make everything interesting with small details and bits and pieces that were revealed at the end of each episode. Then, after the "villain" was revealed, it just got... bland. It was mostly due to Im Sol not having the word "wise" in her dictionary, but I felt like it could have been more thrilling and engaging. Instead, it was a disappointment. I want to drop my rating every time I think about it.
The humor in the show is a hit and miss. Some scences got me laughing so hard I had to pause. Other times, I was cringing so bad, I was close to skipping so many times I had to physically stop myself. But strangely, I'm not mad at it.
The music was great. Not much to say but the OST [10CM - 봄눈 (Spring Snow)] was my favorite. I found myself singing along by the end.
This show started out really strong. By episode 3, I found myself easily hooked. Halfway, it kinda went downhill, and as sad as this sounds, I'm kinda used to this pattern in K-dramas. Still, it was definitely an enjoyable watch and I don't regret picking it up.
Overall, I had a fun experience. It's the kind of drama that I wouldn't rewatch fully, but I'll definitely repeat my favorite scences and watch multiple FMVs. So, there's that.
