This drama is not bad, but it's also nothing special
A rom-com set in a small, bit shabby gym and shows the struggles of its members and trainers. While the setting alone is interesting, I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s a romance. If you’re looking for a lighthearted comedy to watch, then go for it, but be aware that the romance starts towards the very end of the drama, really.
When I read the plot summary, I honestly thought the FL would be severely overweight, like 100+ kg. So, I was surprised that that’s not the case; she just had a few additional kgs. That is to say, her transformation wasn’t as apparent as Alex’s for example.
The characters are quirky, sometimes even unhinged, but definitely likeable. The goodbye party in the last episode was so endearing - you can certainly grow attached to the gym squad.
The comedy was strong; I had a few moments where I really burst out laughing. However, sometimes the drama was trying too hard to be funny to the point I was cringing. What annoyed me the most tho, is that I still don’t know how much Hyeon Jung weighed when he was born. And the weird no-contact between FL and ML in the last episode. Do phones and Internet not exist anymore??
I liked the OST as well as the overall message of the drama. Overall, it was more of an average watch just to kill some time for me. I don’t think I will be rewatching it in the future.
