Did they get a different writer after episode 7?
This one started out so promising! I was absolutely loving it. Lots of humor, likeable characters, good lead couple. Then from episode 8 on, it went down drastically...
Liked:
ML - Cold, stoic, tsundere boss. He fell very low on the EQ score, which is one of the things that made this drama so funny toward the beginning. He dealt with his ex in a very good way.
FL - beautiful, competent, no-nonsense. She stuck up for herself and was able to give logical arguments that the ML could not refute.
Main couple - good chemistry early on
2d couple - got married after one day because they knew each other for a day as children. I liked this, because I felt it was poking fun at the destiny trope.
Food - this was like a food orgy! Lots of delicious looking food.
Until I didn't:
ML - said he wasn't over his ex after five years. The not being able to verbalize his feelings got very old.
FL - quits and breaks up with her boss for a year or so and wants to continue where they left off. She hated it when the ex did that, but it was okay for her? Her ability to communicate rationally diminished with each episode. I liked how she dealt with the employee that he told her to fire.
Main couple - they needed to learn to talk to one another
2d couple - spent all of their time trying to get the main couple together. They were all up in their business all the time, to the detriment of their own relationship. They fought like children.
3d couple - man and woman spent the whole series trying to break up the main couple. It was cute at the beginning, but that didn't last long.
Time skip - I wish we could get rid of this trope.
HE - in the last three minutes.
So much phone usage. Always texting or voice texting, and, as usual, no one can be reached in an emergency. They are at a formal function, she's dressed beautifully and carrying her phone in her hand.
The business aspect was low at the beginning, but then there was a LOT of it from midpoint on. All the people gossiping at work was irritating.
I wish I had stopped at episode 7. It was so good until then.
