Boring, generic, frustrating

Things I loved

1 The 2ML, Kim Bum. I could watch it for his smile. I wish he had a bigger part and I'm not sure why he doesn't have more dramas to watch. He was the only thing worth it in this boring and frustrated drama.

Things I liked

1 The premise was quite interesting, but it failed to deliver. I thought it would be funny and relatable, but it turned out to be boring and generic.

Things I disliked

1 The cast as a whole. None of them were good enough to make me care about what happened to them. The biggest problem was of course the leads. No chemistry at all and the romance wasn't believable.

2 The FL. I won't say I hated her character and he acting but it was close. The first thing I disliked is that her character wasn't endearing enough and that I blame on the writing but mostly on the actress. I don't think she's a good actress. She tries too hard and I wondered what kind of role she could be good at but I can't imagine any. That here she didn't have any chemistry with the ML didn't help of course. She looked much older than him and haggard in most of her scenes. I hope she is okay, but she looked so much older than her real age that I was surprised. Usually all Korean actors look younger.

3 The ML. I could say I liked him, but that wouldn't be accurate either. Comparing to the FL yes, I liked him more, but both end un in the dislike list because it felt like both were miscast. There was no chemistry between them and although in some scenes he was okay most of the times he seemed out of his depth. I must preferred him in Business Proposal where he had at least some chemistry with the FL. I'm not sure I'll watch anything else with him, but I may try again in the future.

Things I hated

1 The angst that permeated the whole series. It was too much and not that interesting. The humor wasn't there to balance this. I barely chuckled a few times. Maybe my expectations were high but when I saw the poster I thought it'd be funny and healing without the over the top villains and the bad acting.
