A beautiful and healing drama

I came in watching this with no expectations cause slice of life dramas are usually not my fav genre but i'm glad i did. It is such a beautiful, healing and heartwarming drama. I was feeling a little down when I started this, so I resonated with Yeoreum so much that it kind of healed me as I watched the drama. I love it so much and especially Yeoreum is such a well written character. She is the most sweetest, kind hearted girl ever. I loved the bond that she had with Bom, it's prob one of my fav aspects of the show along with the sweet sweet grandma. Light plot but not boring at all and filled with wise wisdoms.

As for the romance, they make me giggle from cuteness. The chemistry is probably among the best i've watched and very effortless despite how subtle Yeoreum and Daebeom's interaction is. I feel like Seolhyun is incredibly good at potraying that giddy and shy girl with Daebeom that it made me root for them even more. Although, i do wished they had more romance during the show. But at the same time, i also kind of get that the writer didn't want to make it the highlight or main subject of this drama. A little kiss would've made me the happiest Yeoreum and Daebeom shipper lol.

Acting wise, i couldn't find any flaws. Both the main leads delivered very well. Seolhyun surprised me with her acting, it is so natural so it was so easy to get immersed with her character. I loved her drunk scenes so much lmao. The rest of the cast also did well.

The only complaint that i would say about this drama is the murder plot. I feel like killing the grandma was a bad move from the writer and also that the murder mystery plot was unnecessary and draggy. I feel like the healing plot was already enough to carry the drama. The grandma is such an important character in my opinion, so when they killed her i got really turned off. It kind of defeated the whole purpose of this being a healing drama. Hence, why i deducted my points for the drama. Murder plot was very annoying to watch and i also disliked the annoying library noona, she was so controlling it irked me to death.

Overall a very fun and good watch
