This is probably the slowest ever show that I've ever watched. Many people will find it boring but actually it's very calming and heartwarming. Three people around 30s with their own life hardships and problems, which somehow relate to the reality. They all have a quite "unique and personal" way to see the value of their life. The romance kicks in very slowly and mature without anything over-ecsatic. There is a great combination between great comedy and great melancholy here, a roller coaster ride of emotion spread throughout the show. I really enjoy the soundtrack because it's really fit the vibes. Although actually it's a bit confusing to see where it's going for the first three episodes, but everything is getting better from there.

The casting is really peak here. The trio really brings up their emotions about overcoming their own hardships. I can't believe that this is the first Jeon Yeo Been's main role because she's really slaying it. However I think making Lee Joo Bin appear as her character's highschool version is probably not a good idea.

Even though the characters and the plot are mature, it's quite shame that they use the cliche part when Jin Joo pushes away her feelings towards Beom Su just because of a mere rumor. I mean they should be able to communicate it well. The episode when they talks about PPL and fillers is really a filler. With such pace, putting a filler is a bit painful to watch.

On top of that, this show is really a good to watch if you're looking for something calming after a tiring day. Very recommended for rewatch.
