Love Scout it's a really lovely drama, perfect to watch if you need to disconnect from reality while you are enjoying a warm cup of hot chocolate and your favourite snack. It's full of colourful and endearing characters, who are good people and you are more than happy to cheer for as they strive to succeed in their personal and professional lives.

All of these goes perfectly in hand with solid performances and a cohesive story, although a little formulaic and, at times, lacking bite. If I am being completely honest I think this drama suffers a little from the writing. It builds up conflicts and character development but they don't fully go into the nuances or undertones of it, instead preferring to waste time in classic troupes that, honestly, we could have done without. For example, there are two secondary characters who had a very interesting situation going on but we never really find out much about until the last few episodes. Another example it's the main antagonist whom, for the lack of a better description, it's absolutely flat and irrelevant. I won't mention other instances because I don't want to spoil the story for everyone since, despite this issues, I think Love Scout it's a story worth your time.

This it's very much a character driven drama and the production crew knew this because they used it to perfection. Everyone's chemistry is impeccable and the relationships among characters make sense, developing in a good rhythm. The cinematography, music and camera work are also very well utilised to visually comment on the characters' inner turmoils, growing feelings for each other and their teamwork.

Overall, this was an enjoyable watch and I recommend it.
