Being that unlikable would only work with hotter leads
Ever heard of the phrase "you deserve each other"? both leads are too shallow to be worth the watchFEMALE LEAD: nepo baby who tries to manipulate the media to craft the perfect image of her marriage, like we're in the '50s. she has a lot of self confidence, but sadly it is solely derived from her father's money
MALE LEAD: he only liked the FL because she was a helpless intern. she couldn't do anything by herself and this he found attractive. exactly the style of men hitting on barely legal women. and this was just the just the start, his behaviour towards her continues to deteriorate.
TL;DR: cliche upon cliche, down to the fatal disease. just write a good story and you wouldn't need this crap. and if you did, cast someone more talented

The vibes are vibing, the romance is in the air!
Man resigned from big company to be close to his crush, and this happened in episode 1! honestly, we stan.Ha Joon in a romantic role is giving everything, his open smiles, flirty posture, walking by FL's poster and admiring it, surprising her in ther office, this man was made to play the romantic lead, he's swoon-worty!
Jung Ryeo Won is as great in melo as she's being a badass, the woman has done both Witch's Court and Wok of Love, the range! She has a smile that is self-assured but not invulnerable, as we see from her alteration with that prideful teacher who wants to destroy her life.
It's been a long time since I was so enthusiastic about a drama, but this one is hitting all the right spots!

Not horrible, but a waste of everyone's time
For a romcom to be successful it needs to strike the right balance of cute and witty. This was neither.ROMANCE: Can we stop putting schoolgirls with grown men and call it romantic? It was cringe.
HUMOUR: The script was weak and unable to accomodate it.
RACISM: Present. Come on Korea, let's drag you to the 21st century.
Overall, I didn't hate it, it's more backround scenes while you do laundry. But for its star power, and the fact that it was his return drama, it's massively dissapointing
