OH MY GOD PLEASE WATCH THIS DRAMA!!! IT’S SO SO GOOD THAT I’M HAVING A HARD TIME PUTTING INTO WORDS!!!Let me just start off with the fact that two of the first dramas I watched were I Really Really like You và Playful Kiss, so seeing Lee Min Ki và Jung So Min in a drama again was exciting and nostalgic. I had high expectations for this show since the writer of this show also wrote Ho Goo’s Love (which, by the way, is a MUST watch) and I worried that the bar I’d mix for the show would not be met, which would probably ruin my love for the actors and the writer. However, my worries were unnecessary, because THIS SHOW IS IN MY đứng đầu FIVE NOW! I can’t even begin to tell you how much I adored this show (though I must, since this is a review after all)! My expectations weren’t just met, they were exceeded! The plot, the actors, the music, the CHARACTERS! Everything was just so, so perfect and genuine!Story/Plot: Oh my god, where vì I even begin? This show was just so layered và wonderful! It wasn’t a melodrama by any means, but contained so much depth. The plot contained three simple plotlines: cohabitation/contract marriage, rich man và poor woman, và a struggling long term relationship. Often, when stories try khổng lồ cram too many plotlines into one show, there are too many loose bits và ends. But in this drama, every character was purposeful & important, adding texture và depth to the story and the themes, and there were no loose ends. Speaking of themes, this drama was very progressive & dealt with issues that usually aren’t dealt with in Korean dramas. It challenged traditional gender stereotypes, sexual harassment in the work place, và the traditional meaning of marriage, but all in a very thoughtful & eloquent way. Perhaps I’m making this show sound boring, like a class at school, but it’s difficult lớn explain how such a simple idea was so revolutionized through some VERY skilled writing. The whole show seemed deliberate, & not cliche at all, despite how the storyline seems on the surface. You’ll just have to lớn see it for yourself! I promise that you’ll love every moment of it!Characters/Cast: As I was saying earlier, the surface cấp độ plotline is very simple, but what really enhanced the story và made it so enjoyable were the ABSOLUTELY PERFECT characters! All of them were so realistic, and their thoughts were clear và coherent, and they weren’t there just lớn waste screentime. Starting with the main couple, Ji Ho and Se Hee were just so nice to watch. They had great chemistry and by this point, I just want LMK và JSM to date in real life! Ji Ho was really the star, because seeing such an intelligent main character in dramas is rare. She knew what she wanted and she approached it wholeheartedly, & overall, she was a very relatable character. Se Hee, on the other hand, encompasses a person’s more weary & cautious side, because he was afraid to be hurt and even more afraid of hurting others. The show focused on them & their character development rather than adding useless love triangles. On the topic of triangles, there were technically two, but both were short lived and ESSENTIAL lớn the story, because they brought out new sides in the main characters. What really stood out khổng lồ me was how realistic the rivals were (if you could even hotline them that). I’d say that one of my favorite characters was the ex girlfriend, và I can’t say more without spoiling the story, but her arch was one that was worth watching. She was a realistic và admirable character, unlike the conniving ex girlfriends you usually see in dramas. The other two couples in the story were equally important, and their stories were full of substance & lessons worth watching. Soo Ji teaches us khổng lồ follow our dreams và stand up for what’s right, against the face of adversity. Ho Rang and Won Seok teach us that there’s a difference between love and marriage, và that the bad things that happen are often unavoidable & we must move forward. I won’t go into the details, but the character development in all three couples is worth watching và then rewatching a couple more times! Every wonderful character in this story was played by a wonderful actor that truly did the characters justice, & I have no complaints at all with the perfect casting or the extremely convincing acting. (I might be a bit biased since I love Lee Min Ki, but the difference for someone who doesn’t love him already might be the difference between an 11/10 vs a 10/10 rating. Either way, it’s PERFECT!)Music: This review is already long enough, so I’ll be brief. I downloaded the whole soundtrack! So cute & perfectly suited for this drama! >vRewatch Value: Usually I don’t even mention the rewatch value since I rarely rewatch dramas regardless of how good they are, but I have khổng lồ mention it this time! I finished episode 14 two days before episode 15 came out, & I started to rewatch my favorite episodes while I waited! I just wanted to lớn relive all the cute moments, and I can’t wait khổng lồ finish the show so that I can rewatch và relive everything a few months from now! The show is really refreshing và light, despite the heavy progressive reform oriented subplots, and it seems to lớn be very timeless. It’s worth watching at any age, but I feel lượt thích it gets better & better as you get older & experience dilemmas faced by the characters. The value for me is a solid 10/10, since I’m already itching lớn rewatch it!Overall: As you’re probably aware by now, because of all the gushing I’ve been doing, I LOVE THIS SHOW! I can’t recommend it highly enough! Everything was flawless, & I don’t say that very often. Please give this beautiful show a chance, because I know you won’t regret it! Maybe this show will be part of your room 19 ;))Edit (Contains a hint of a soft spoiler): I"ve been reading a lot of comments saying that Ji Ho was selfish in the last two episodes, and I just wanted khổng lồ say that I completely disagree - Ji Ho was trying to understand her own feelings và see whether or not her feelings were long lasting, & she gave Se Hee a chance to vì so as well. While this might have hurt Se Hee in the short term, it let both of them be sure about whether or not they want khổng lồ be together for the long term, so that they aren"t hurt once they"re in a truly serious và committed relationship.
