A fun and funny romcom from start to finish with YEARNING!!!

If you're in the mood for a fun, hilarious, sincere romcom with elite yearning from the ML, this is for you.

==Breakdown==
Background plot- 25%
Romance - 60%
Misc comedy - 15%

Background plot - There were two: 1) FML character growth background plot was GREAT! 2) Rich family background plot was adequate/fine
Romantic chemistry - EXCELLENT
Misc comedy - Actually very funny
Production value and direction - Good

This was the most enjoyable, purely romcom I've watched since probably 'Business Proposal.' Why don't they make these anymore?!!? It was SO GOOD!!

A reviewer said Kim Young Kwang should do more romcoms and they are so, so right. But let's not skip over his elite YEARNING. I wish this actor did more dramas, period. He's so good at both comedy and drama. In this, his expressions cracked me up more than once, but then he had me tearing up in the next episode. Such a delight to watch every scene he's in.

Chae Soo Bin, as expected, was simply stellar as the FL. She always brings such a lovely sincerity to all her roles and I can always count on her to deliver heartfelt romance (and a moving story). She's phenomenal.

The direction, music, settings, etc. were all romcom coded, which I loved. No scenes were filler (which I also loved). The second male lead was almost too perfect and the second female lead was layered and flawed (and therefore an interesting, engaging character even if she was ultimately a "baddie.")

Enjoy!!
