Opposite Polars Attract
Let us just say that Ho-rang and Bo-Bae are poles apart in many ways:
Ho-rang a rich heir to a big corporation but with one weakness, and that is his artificial heart. While Bo-Bae, somewhat an ordinary unlucky writer who has an electrifying secret. Each with their own potentials and weaknesses.
This story isn't something new, but it is interesting that though fictional feeds into human interest - the desire to be loved, to belong, to be significant and be accepted. Just from the first episode, we already see how much Ho-rang would need Bo-Bae. At first, it seems that only Ho-rang has a desperate need, but it eventually showed how Bo-Bae needs him too.
And the story won't be exciting if not for the villains. We already see that Ho Rang's aunt, uncle and cousin have the desire to gain ownership by playing dirty. Somehow the peak of evil is close to the last few episodes. These characters didn't change - they went from bad to worse.
But it is good to see a transformation in the main leads. The misunderstandings, the conflicts between Ho-Rang and Bo-Bae changed as they learn to communicate better and find that they need each other. Their love story may have started from a charging contract. The once icy Ho-Rang became soft toward Bo-Bae and even been dutifully submissive to Bo -Bae's parents. Ho-Rang learned how to woo, to be humble, to cooperate and listen. He came to a point, that a top position does not matter if he will not have Bo-Bae by his side.
On the other hand, Bo-Bae has her own transformation as she writes her script. Having her bucket lists done with Ho-rang, they learned from each other. One thing that Bo-Bae has that Seol-Hee doesn't have is compassion. She didn't think that being associated with Ho-Rang be her steppingstone to bring her career to a higher level.
Kim Young Kwang has been casted before as a boss with a weakness playing opposite Jin Ki Joo in "The Secret Life of My Secretary." His stature is befitting of a boss/chaebol, and able to carry that character who doesn't seem to care for anyone. But when his character becomes in love, he acted really silly. We can see two sides of his acting.
As for Cha Soo Bin, I've seen her in "I am not a robot," whereby her touch also healed the ML. She can be casted many times to be a one who seem ordinary yet has a gift to touch people's heart also. I guess her cute face can be deceptive.
The 10 episodes is just right and am glad that it is a happy ending. We all love happy ending - good triumphs and evil punished.
