It’s not your typical romance-heavy show. I’d say it’s about 60% business & 40% romance.
The story dives into the world of headhunting (firms that find suitable candidates for companies) — something I didn’t even know existed! I enjoyed learning abt that side of things.
The show felt very female-focused as it was about the fl growth, both personally & professionally
The male lead, a single dad, was written maturely, with no over-the-top “mushy” moments, just realistic, grounded interactions. Their romance was handled in a way that truly fits people in their 30s, navigating office relationships.
The side characters were likable and even when the show leaned into classic K-drama tropes (evil chaebol CEO, revenge plots, childhood trauma, the second lead, etc.), it all made sense in context and never felt overdone. The writer didn’t complicate things unnecessarily.
Once the main couple got together, they stayed together — no breakups, no misunderstandings. Just a healthy, respectful relationship between two mature people. The ml is a total green flag, and the fl treats him with genuine respect — their relationship felt mature & equal.
No angst, no dragging — just a smooth, well-written drama. I'm glad I watched it because I dropped the first time around.
The writer’s definitely on my radar now.
9/10 for healing my trust issues with modern K-dramas.
