All the formulas and recipes of a classic rom com kdrama combined

Again, a drama packed with all the classic tropes you can think of that have existed in K-drama land for who knows how long. Especially the most popular one among them, the “destined meeting” of the leads during childhood, which none of us are unfamiliar with. Fortunately... because at this point, it’s as much a staple as kimchi in Korean cuisine.

That being said, it’s not necessarily bad. Some people will eat up these tropes every single time, while others have had enough and can’t stand them anymore. As for me, I’m eating it up this time because I’m simply in the mood for something like this. It’s an easy, almost mindless watch compared to what I’ve been watching recently, though I admit some scenes had me rolling my eyes.

Both the FL and ML are fine; they have nice chemistry and a fun dynamic. They’re funny at times, but nothing over the top or exaggerated. To be honest, the ML already has my whole heart with his gentleness, even though some people say his character is dull or lacks charisma, especially compared to the SML. But for me, he has his own kind of charm that completely works and really appeals to me. So far, the only character that truly bothers me is the FL’s ex. At first, he’s just your typical useless cheater, but by ep 6, his audacity and shamelessness have grown bigger than the entire universe.

Most people seem to be more drawn to the second couple and I get why. They have more mysterious tension between them than the main couple. But personally, I’m not that into them.

Overall, this is another fun, cliché-filled drama you can watch without expecting much besides silliness and maybe some fluffy romance. There are a few bits of mystery sprinkled here and there related to the ML’s family, which adds a nice little spice to the story.
