sweet but not tooth-ache sweet

My 2026 resolution is to write reviews for everything i've watch - so here goes! I just finished the drama and my overall feelings towards this drama is generally positive. In fact, i do not have any criticisms - not even for the slowwwww pacing for the romance to develop cause i felt that it was done very well to stretch 36 eps - not too fast/not too slow. Although it did feel the epilogue ep was tad bit rushed but maybe it could be cause i was very invested lol. I liked the fact that women in this drama were strong and stood their ground, even that annoying college roommate - loads of room for development. I also hoped that her ex-college crush also moved on instead of moping with droopy eyes lol (glad his colleague didnt settle with him). Other that the "mis-understanding" i liked how there was no miscommunications with the leads and their romance took a natural course. I was oddly invested in their work too lol. The boss/sub-ordinate dynamics was also handled well. Suyen knew what he wanted and boy did he get her. Bonus points for this drama to not have meddlesome parents/friends/ exes. Even more bonus points for great communication. I am not usually a fan of romance as a main genre but this was cute and refreshing. I have no complaints!
