Good, but 10 episodes too long

I really really enjoyed this show until episode 25 or so. The chemistry is great between the too leads, and the slow burn romance is very sweet. Reminded me of Hidden Love (my all time fave) for a bit. The problem is that everything pretty much resolves by episode 25. That means we are treated to 10 extra episodes where nearly nothing
happens. Don't get me wrong, I often praise kdramas and cdramas for giving us what i call a "victory lap". That's what I call when they have 1 or 2 final episodes where everyone is happy. But 10 episodes with no drama, and lovey dovey couple just looking cute together was a bit much.

So enjoy the built up of the romance, because its really good. But I recommend a lot of fast forwarding for the last quarter.
