One of my First K-Dramas and It was a Good one!

I watched this back during covid after needing a show to watch during the lockdown and loved the watch. It's a pretty enjoyable drama with a good story that I'll admit got a bit boring towards the backend of it probably because of how they starting pushing things quicker but I still loved watching it.

I wasn't that big a fan of the love triangle but I do think that Dal Mi and Do San were the best option to be together because of how they could relate to one another and although she found a deep friendship with Ji Pyung it felt more of a mentor-mentee friendship between them. Dal Mi never really showed a love interest in him despite the reveal of who he really he was. Do San loved her from the beginning without even knowing a single thing about her other than the letters and did what he could with her best interests at mind even though the lies kept getting caught into another one. With Dal Mi too, even after the truth coming out never stopping her feelings for him never left. I think ppl getting mad over that just wanted the actors to get together rather than focus on what the characters ending up growing towards.

I wish we got to see a bit more at the end of the drama with how they built up their company even if it was just for an episode or two. They showed at the end to it's big success from small start-up office because we didn't see much really happen in that office or the self-driving company and even a bit of the wedding would of been fun but so and so.. Also, I really enjoyed Dal Mi's mom and grandmother's relationship after they got together again. They didn't show a whole lot of it but it was super nice.

This is a good drama to sit down and watch with good acting and great OST, bit disappointed how people didn't end up liking it too much because they didn't think Dal Mi ended with the right person. People got hit super hard with second-lead syndrome even though it was pretty obvious it wasn't going to happen.
