Overall fun ride with loooots of cliches

This drama is based on webtoon. One of the specialties of the romcom webtoon is that they are more focused on characters and interactions between them, so the story is nothing but a big set up instead of any actual plot. As I have not read this original webtoon not sure how many scenes are exactly true to the material and how many are specific to drama but the overall feel is like we are watching scenes from the webtoon and it is enjoyable. The character set up is of course we have seen in many dramas. Rich, young and handsome Male lead who has lost his parents and wants recognition from his grandmother meets talented, pretty female lead who has experienced people looking down on her due her financial status specifically in her school years. The boss- employee bickering, the noona romance does feel like a repetition but the key is always in the execution, and execution does feel fresh. Drama does not delve into these cliches and we do quickly get over those set ups making the relationship more enjoyable .Despite the repetitive set up leads do have odd characters which are enjoyable to watch. Whether you are rich or poor , you have a loving family or not , our leads do feel lonely and finding that comfort and one person who will always be by your side is quite hard for both of them. The journey of how they find this in each other is pure entertainment with very unique comic scenes and a very light hearted approach.
Having a fun second lead couple, and a nice coworker office set up feels like a top up in already fun ride.
P.S - whenever I see a paper shredder from now on, I will definately be laughing due to this drama
