A heartwarming romance with a perfect Sunshine FL x Grumpy ML
This drama was amazing! The cinematography, whether we are in the real world or in the game was amazing. I loved the characters, their personalities, their development and growth. The actors did an incredible job and had a beautiful chemistry. I love how their love came to be, how they got together, how they overcame their struggles, how they support and root for each other, how they communicate. Their relationship is just so sweet and fantastic.I love the boldness of the female lead, it was a refreshing change from what we usually see. I also appreciated how, even when he was taken aback, the male lead never tried to constrain that side of her. We can tell they both can fully be themselves with one another and respect each other.
Another great point is the nice supporting characters, from the leads friends to their work collegues. Nobody toxic or weird. I liked how they showed their group dynamics with the leads, it helped us be more attached to them and the universe of the drama too.
I honestly didn't expect much when I started the show and I'm so glad I got to enjoy the journey this drama was. I was excited to see a new episode everyday, and it goes by so fast. From beginning to end, everything is just good. The pace is not slow nor rush, there's no boring episodes and we don't have any loose end.
Big bonus: we are served with plenty lovey-dovey scenes. 🥰

Fun fluffy romcom with some retro vibes
Looking for a funny fluffy romcom with some retro vibes and a nice chemistry between the leads ? This is it!The episode are not so long so you quite don't see time passes by. The leads are endearing, not too mature but not too childish either, I felt like it was well balanced. We got plenty cute accessories reminding us of the 90s, lol. And I found the plot quite fun. It's really mainly comedy. And the ending is also satisfying. I was scared because I got trauma from transmigration dramas but this one did not disappoint. The only reason why I don't give it a 10 is the second leads. The friend of the leads, that are set to be a couple too, are boring. Their characters don't bring anything to the story. They feel useless and have no chemistry. Not having them would have change nothing to the story, unfortunaltely, they're not impadtful whatsoever. And their love story is really so-so...

Too predictable
The main that saved this drama is the lead actors.The characters are too immature, the story turns nonsensical too oftenly and the ending was quite disappointing for me. The other couples are not particulary endearing either. The main plot twist is who ended up being the real villain and why they turned that way. Besides that, everything is too predictable and there are too many useless misunderstanding, several times it just makes the show draggy...

Romcom which does its job right!
Good romance: check! Comedy: double check! We have a sweet romance that develops in the most funny way. We also tackle some serious issues but it's well done. All the characters are endearing and funny too so we just get into the all universe of the drama easily and it makes the drama even more enjoyable. Loved the actors acting, I've seen them in more serious roles and I'm glad they can pull the comedy genre this well. If you're looking for a romcom that's not too serious and will make you laugh, this is the one.Was this review helpful to you?
There is as many languages as they are people in the world
Loved it ! Very easy to binge ! A really nice drama with a lovely romance. It feels like I watched the romance of two avoidant people who always put the others first falling for each other and their journey of not letting that trait get in the way of them finding love. It was beautifully told.Amazing acting from the leads. Kudos to Go Youn Jung for the versatility of her role. Kudos to Kim Seon Ho too, it's not evident to play someone who speaks several languages but he did very well. He really looked like a polyglot, lol. He has amazing facial expressions, we could tell so much about how he felt just by looking at his face. Nice chemistry between the leads.
I like the development of the scenario a lot, you can't tell what will happen in the next episode nor how the drama will end. There's so many things we just don't see coming, it makes the drama even more enjoyable. It was cool. the one point where it failed for me is how no one thinks about using an online translator even if it's not the most accurate things when there's no interpertror. The character just rather speak their language and not be understood by the person they're talking to even when they're saying something important. It doesn't make sense. Anyway, it's not a focal point in the drama, we can easily tell it's to create misunderstandings that will unfold later in the story and you can still enjoy the drama despite that.
They traveled a lot so we have amazing sceneries, that was cool. The dialogues aregreat, a lot of nice lines. And we have some nice character development, the characters still remain true to themselves till the end, loved that too.
I really liked this drama, I was waiting for it since I heard about it because I love the Hong sisters as writers, and I've not been disappointed. It's just missing that little je ne sais quoi for me, that thing that makes you addicted, hence why I didn't give it a 10.
