Hmm, I'm not feeling it yet but will give it a few more episodes. It feels like a run off the mill thriller to me so far.

Interesting, other than her demoting the ML without explaining why (she clearly has a hidden reason), I thought she was actually fine and a competent boss. Her scoldings were actually valid.

To me it seems like the FL and 2ML were exes or had some troubled history, and she assigned ML the position to dig up his dirt (a possible affair with 2FL?) I might be very wrong though.

That's what I thought when I saw the actress for the first time lol

We do know they've known each other for a long time from the actors' promotions, and probably had some complicated relationship.

ML was right to protest his demotion but once he said he was the only one fit for his current job, yeah he was being overconfident. Dude, no one is indispensible to their company lol.

Unfortunately I'm not sold on this show.

Yeah, it was fine at first but I didn't expect it to be such a big part of the plot.

Loving the comedy in this so far!

Hmm, frankly I have mixed feelings towards the emotion watch being used as a major plot device and as AI being the "source of truth" for the characters' feelings, but I do see why the writer included it.

Complex and mature roles do exist in many rom-coms, and likewise some rom-coms do tackle mature and realistic themes. Rom-com is really just a tag that coexists with many different sub-genres of dramas like workplace comedy here, slice of life, fantasy, historical etc. SHS's filmography mainly consists of complex or unconventional characters even in her rom-coms.

A promising start, a lot of relatable characteristics in the characters here. I'm enjoying Hwang Dong-man as a somewhat unconventional portrayal of poor self-esteem and unfulfilled ambition. While slightly depressing, the black comedy keeps things from feeling too dark. On a side note, I would actually like an emotion watch for myself.

From the trailer, I have to say those zombies look disgusting as hell lol. Much more so than those in Train to Busan

And they also have a lot of A-list actors under their belt.

My first impression is that the modern sageuk concept isn't as interesting as I expected it to be. Maybe it will expand into something more in further episodes, but the first episode was pretty conventional to me.

That seems to be the case. Definitely gives some insight into why a veteran like KJW chose the role. Though it's quite funny how the leads appear to be a comedic duo from the teasers while the second leads are entangled in this complicated mess lol.

Perhaps wait for the show to begin first? I'm not sure if that will be the case, it's probably more likely that they will separate before he gets in another relationship.

I did get the pun after reading the synopsis, but the title is just really cringe to me lol. No opinions on the plot as of yet.

Um, they really couldn't come up with a better title? Sorry but some of these new romance titles are pretty damn uninspiring. Our Sticky Love, Filing for Love, and now Fall in Love...

Actually, reading the planning intent section (I just google translated it so I might be wrong), this show appears to talk about 'complex relationships where it is hard to draw a line'.
I think there's a small possibility that the second leads are actually part of an office scandal/affair. It will be interesting but likely controversial. Though I highly doubt they will do that in a rom com.
