Sweet, lighthearted and mildly subversive . . .

The plot is simple: Our main character Kong Yeun Su is in a loving, fundamentally decent but patriarchal conservative family. The cage has become too small and she's determined to spread her wings. And one way to do so is tip toeing into a modern relationship.

She is the only character with a strong built out character and motivations. This was clearly written to orginally be 16 episodes and then was cutdown to 10. Most of the characters act badly and then quickly reverse to acting ideally. Dokgo Dal was commitment phobic, but now he isn't and is the complete perfect boyfriend without any relationship experience . .. how?

The sex toy storyline used to illustrate what healthy consensual sex can look like, and that disrupting the patriarchy means women taking control of their body and sexuality.

The acting is OK, music and sets, and costumes a bit below average . . . but hey, honestly, good for them for putting this out into the world. It's a theme I can get behind, even if there isn't much else there there.
