I´ll add this into the category of “Short & fun”

This was the perfect show to watch whilst I was in bed with a cold. Overall, it´s a very fun show with likeable characters and a simple plot. Don´t expect a masterpiece from this one but I´m still happy I watched this and I´m looking forward to a continuation of the show.

What I Liked:
- I genuinely liked a lot of the characters, including some of the villains. Would like to see even more of the side characters backstories.
- It did not drag, and the second half of the show is as good as the second half, which is not always the case for Kdramas.
- Yes, it´s unrealistic but to be honest I didn´t mind it at all? Its not trying to be realistic and grounded. Its clearly supposed to be a bit goofy. I usually don´t like when live action shows are shot like the webtoons (or Animes) but I didn’t mind it here.
- The intro slaps!

What I liked less:
- The show does not really have any emotional weight to it. The stakes are very low and it´s to a certain extent predictable. This makes the show lack an emotional punch (jokes) and ends up a little bit flat.
- I´m writing this after S2 has been announced. However, I finished the drama prior to the announcement so I will still add this point here: I feel like the ending was too open ended? I do think a S2 makes sense for this drama because there are quite a few characters that was a bit underdeveloped that I would love to see more of. The end also felt a bit rushed, and I ended up being a big confused to be honest.
