Just finished watching it. Very good show. Leads are flawless all the time, very mature, very straightforward.…
- Leads get together at the end of episode 7 - Each of them has a secondary lead that likes them, but you cant even call it love triangle. Both are nice and dont intrude at all. Both secondary leads end up together - No breakup. No missunderstanding. There are few scenes where something from the past is discovered and FL needs some time alone. But it's sweet, since she completly opens up to him after that. And it lasts like 1 day
most dislike thing in kdrama or Cdrama is that they make mls look like horny because fls don't think about it…
I agree those tropes are common. but I wouldn't say this show has big things like those. I mean, ML takes the initiative, and yes, she gets mad a few times without reason. but I wouldn't say it's something bad to stop you from watching it.
Just finished it. Didn't like it at all, had to force myself to continue watching and started fastforwarding often.
It looked nice until about episode 7. It starts as a very comical romcom and it looks like it is going to be sweet. You already can see there is going to be an annoying triangle, but for the first 7 episodes, it looks good enough.
But then the show starts getting more and more annoying. It's not angsty or even very annoying, since everything is in a comical tone. But still, many annjoying scenes.
But it would be ok if at least the good parts were.. good. Sweet or whatever. But nope. The few parts that arent annoying after episode 7, are cringe instead.
So from episode 7 onwards, the show alternates between annoying scenes about the love triangle, about missunderstandings, about problems, and then scenes where everything is fine, but that arent sweet but cringe. With ML acting like he was retarded almost. It's not the typical "he has never dated so he is inexperienced"". It's more like "he has never dated so he is inexperienced and only constantly ridiculises himself"
I think this show is funny and can be enjoyable, but it suffers from yet another forced love triangle where the…
I am having a hard time finishing the show. I am pushing through because it's short, but I am not enjoying it tbh.
the annoying things I mention above are not that terrible, since everything is done with a comedy tone. but the thing is, besides that it doesn't have many good scenes for me. when they flget together they prefer to exploit the cringe about how bad ML is daring than their sweetness. I just think this show has some bad things that would be worth if the rest was good, but it isn't.
I read a comment below that FL started dating SML from ep 15, what was the reason, she likes both ML and SML?
Well, I must say that is very rare. Usually only MLs have to apologize. Maybe I would think about it if it were areound the middle episodes, but a last minute happy ending after such annoying things close to the end, is still too much. Thx for the info tho
In the same episode: - ML in love with FL but treating her rough so she stays away from him (to protect her, altho not even sure why) - FL mad with ML because fo that - FL going on a blind date and ML being jealous about it - sML calling FL and telling her he just wants to hear her voice and she saying she is always happy to receive his calls -Fl gets arrested and both leads run to her, but sML arrives first and ML just watches how he helps her and both leave togeather on his car
All those disgusting things in the same episode... yeah, no thanks
EDIT: Oh great, it gets even worse at the end of that episode and beginning of the next one.
2 episodes in and it looks good... except for that prosecutor. Their paths still havent crossed, but we already know what kind of character he will be, right? Why couldnt they just not make their show annoying and remove him?
pros: - good chemistry. In the real meaning, not in the girls guilty pleasure way of ML doing everything for FL while she minds her own business.- Too many times I see that called chemistry, when it's just guilty pleasure. Here both show their emotions clearly, it is a balanced romance and both are very in love with the other one and show it. - non romance plot is good - acting, picture, quality... all good.
cons: - Absolutly ridfdiculous nonesense things happen. Sure many dramas have them, but here it's even more. Then again, if the romance is good, I dont really care much about this. But sometimes those ridiculous things interfer with the romance - While like I said above the romance is very balanced, the get together episodes werent. There is a very beautiful scene of how FL realizes he likes her. Right after that scene until the get together about 4 episodes later... the romance is a mess there. ML confesses like 3 times, FL keeps saying he hasnt confessed, she does something bad... but its him who has to apologize... a complete mess. The romance was very bad during these episodes, and very unbalanced and unjust. - The ending is not to my likeing. I mean, it is a happy ending. But the last 6 episodes are a very big drama, too late for my taste, almost reaching the ending. Then we get a hug as a last second happy ending. Except we then get a few weird and unsatisfying scenes at the end after that.
ALl in all, it is an entertaining and sweet show. It just has some bad things too
Writers insist on adding love triangles even when they don't make any sense and/or add nothing to the story...
Absolutly nothing, I saw a small clip on youtube shorts and was checking it out. But I read about love triangels and about ML having to do all the romantic effort, so I didnt read much further.
The pacing of their romance is an absolute mess. They just started dating, and on the first date we hear her think "I love you" and we hear him think "I cant live without you" and it felt exagerated for a first date... Then we see flashbacks of many other dates we didnt see happen... WTF, why would you go from the get together to a date in the future after many dates, when it looked like it would just be 1 or 2 days later...
It's really hard to get into the intensity of the love they try to show in the next scenes when for the audience it seemes like they have been dating for 2 days.
No way... He was the one to apologize??? Im so tired of MLs always doing something wrong and needing to apologize, so here finally FL was the one who did and I though, hey what a nice change.... and then he is the one to say sorry?? omg, stop it already
Absolutly pathetic get together scene. She made him confess 3 times, almost blaming him for not saying he likes her, when he did several times, and she never once did, and then she acts absolutly ridiculous with the police stuff, makes him feel very bad, yet he is the one who apologizes, and still she says: ok if there is nothing else, and prepares to leave, and he has to confess again.
So tired of MLs being treated so poorly in romance dramas.
Oh yeah, and her answer after making him confess 3 times, destroying his awesome confession, blaming him for not saying he likes her when he had said it is.... "Alright". That's her final agreeing answer to his third confession. "Alright, you're welcome"...
I saw her for the first time in You are my Hero. She was good. Later I saw her in Oh my General. She was the frikin MVP, so good. She saved the show, which I only liked because of how good she acted.
But in neither of these shows did I think she was specially beautiful, she was... alright looking. But Im watching Age of Legends now and... wow, she is much prettier here than in those other 2 shows, beautiful

Totally lighthearted, mature and sweet show
They get together in episode 10
Once they get together they dont break up
there is a quite annoying love triangle, that lasts the entire show.
