For sure! and at the start it had that rom-com feel, but it quickly became apparent that this is more a melodrama, cuz comedy just suddenly stopped and the romance that wasn't anywhere to be seen went on a back burner by the appearance of the SML, so we lost what little romance we had.

For me, the lack of chemistry seemed to be a writing issue rather than an acting one. Like in the pool scene, you could tell that there was some tension, and it was a moment that could have been built on by exploring FL's sudden interest in ML and her questioning her own feelings but that went nowhere.

And then we had the ML's letter from the past and that was under utilized too, FL could have found the letter and read it without ML finding out and that could have led her through a rabbit hole of questioning every moment they've had together as friends in the past and slowly build up feelings and chemistry and tension but nope! that didn't happen

Then there was the defining moment; ML's confession, they could have taken the time for FL to slowly but surly start to see ML in a new light and their moments together from then on could have been charged and tension packed but nope! SML appears, and he stuck around for so loooooooooooooooong that all the momentum was gone, and by then it was way too late to build up any chemistry or tension, so it felt hollow.

This isn't a rom-com

This was me by the end of episode 8🥺
The synopsis and the tags and the poster suggests this is a lighthearted rom-com, but it doesn't have enough romance or comedy for it to be called that, it's more of a slice of life melodrama, which had I known beforehand would have never watched.
My own life is shitty and sad by itself, I don't need my escapism media to be that too😭

Yep! the chemistry was nowhere to be found, I just hope he can do a better job on his next project with Kim Yoo Jung.

The love triangle in this is quite weird and handled very poorly, the SML comes back right after ML confesses, and she doesn't give ML an answer for his confession and keeps him on ice, while FL's mom tries to make her go back to her fiancé. She's also quite wishy-washy towards SML as well(which left a bad taste in my mouth), she never tells him outright to go away or to stop trying to woo and win her back, she allows him to hang with her and even be around the ML and even though ML says he doesn't want SML around and in his building, FL ignores him and still lets SML stay and even goes on a date with him.

all in all this was one of the worst handling of a SML I've seen in a while and made me start skipping a head to the ending, SML has way too much screen time and he is around for like 3/4 episodes which for me who can barely tolerate love-triangles is way too much.

PS: If you enjoy annoying SMLs and FL's that fail to set any boundaries, then you'll love this.

Thanks for the info😘I already finished the drama🤔 it was a solid 8/10 for me.

The Manhwa is 1000000000000 times better than the Drama.

pure trash

searching for a gf who watches kdrama😭

OMG😍😍😍😍😍😍
It looks so intense and passionate, I hope we get some good steamy kisses🥵🥵

🥺🥺

For sure, it made her quite unlikable in my eyes from the very beginning, then the ex started stealing her idea and she again doesn't do anything about it, in the finale he was rewarded again and with zero repercussion for his cheating.
all in all it was a very disappointing drama for me.

🤔😏🥵

It's so early 2000s, we should not be seeing this nonsense in 2024.

I wouldn't call it happy😑

don't bother

It pissed me off so much, I also hated not knowing if they actually got married? like did they have a marriage certificate? and did they get divorce after?

the only reason they hijacked it is cuz the main couple weren't that good.

The only good parts are the first half of the drama, after that it's subpar at best , so if you didn't like the beginning then you will not enjoy the rest.
