Why so serious!?
I don't really know how to rate or describe this, it's not a bad drama per se, I've seen much worse KBLs and this is even on par with the good ones.
But whatever happens in the story, it Takes itself too seriously, unnecessarily...
Like they are creating problems out of very simple matters, make these problems look bigger and bigger, then pop it like a balloon in a second, so at the end you be like, well, that's it??? All this build up and struggle for it to end up solved like that!?
Why getting too invested if everything is going to be gone in 30 seconds, give me back my emotions, please!!
Also the two main characters have a very odd relationship, specially Jeong Han, he is borderline obsessive, but in the very early episodes he treat IlJo like trash, being too harsh on him for no reason and saying a lot of degrading things as if he is his slave, yet he is this hopeless lover who is destroyed when IlJo even think about leaving him...
IlJo on the other hand has no backbone, he just love to struggle and be a drama queen for absolutely no reason, not to mention the very intrusive coffeeshop owner, like you only hire a part time guy to strongly intervene in his life, you only knew the guy for what? A month or so~~ who are you even to get involved and have an opinion!!
The only thing that deserves praise is the performances, the two leads were good, great even, their chemistry is very good and they fit together and for a KBL, this had great kisses ~
I don't know if I would suggest it to anyone or recommend it in general, it's not the greatest story but the chemistry worth giving it a shot ~
