It is a short but oh so packed with cuteness and OH MY GOSH scenes. The main leads in my opinion, have great chemistry! The main guy, Jae Won, is your ideal boyfriend; caring, sweet, cute (haha in all ways,mind you he loves his bear slippers and bear apron) and all other good stuff. There was no episode where I did not squeal, well probably there was err when that shameless ex of hers is on the screen.
But anyhow, I highly recommend this drama to my fellow viewers who's looking for a romance fill in, as this definitely did the job for me. I hope that my future man will do that kind of dating course for me!!!
Overall, I give this drama an A- ;as the acting was good, story is not so out of the ordinary but I liked the concept of the whole Wednesday 3:30 pm project, casts were good (cute chemistry between the leads), phasing of the drama was perfect and last but not the least, this drama had cute OST too

"Wednesday 3:30 p.m." It tells the story of a woman who was abandoned by her boyfriend and tries to recover her heart by doing so with jealousy ...
Throughout the drama features a very beautiful morality about true love in its purest form. Featured for the wonderful cast.
The story mixes all the genres and elements of a dramatic romantic comedy and very entertaining, pleasing even the most demanding.
It also has factors such as innovation and cinematographic environment incredibly beautiful giving the drama a special environment for the romance of the two protagonists.
His soundtrack basically consists of several genres that by the way very well chosen, going from the classic to the contemporary.
In short a fun and cheerfully charismatic drama with a love story of comings and goings in the purest form of being. Highly recommend!

I binged this all the way up until the last three episodes, and up until that point, I was totally enthralled and invested. Then I came back for the last three eps and realized how silly the story is. Some dramas are incredibly good at creating forward motion and sucking you into that forward motion, without ever having to tell a real story, and I think that's the case with this drama.There's not a lot you haven't seen before. Girl gets dumped by her boyfriend; old friend shows up suddenly and decides to help her get her boyfriend back; as they spend time together, feelings develop; girl successfully gets boyfriend back, but by then she's completely over him; old friends almost girlfriend comes back, and now he feels obligated to stay with her; leads avoid telling each other how they feel because they think they're both in love with other people; the secondary romantic leads plan out their lives with the leads, and the leads go along with it even though there's no logical reason to; the leads Finally break it off with the secondary leads in the final quarter of the story but Still don't tell each other how they feel. And yes, there's an unnecessary time jump in the last episode.
But there is a happy ending, so I guess that's a good thing.
It's really just...nothing to write home about.
The relationship conflicts do start off fairly believable. But they quickly become irritating. Initially, it's understandable why Jae Won feels so conflicted after his almost girlfriend comes back. They were basically 'spoken for' with each other at the beginning of the story, so his feelings of obligation to her make sense. They genuinely liked each other once, to the point of each of them privately contemplating getting married. But the drama doesn't give us any sort of compelling backstory to their relationship and why it would make sense for them to possibly be together over the main couple, or alternatively, why it wouldn't. Of course, almost girlfriend eventually ruins herself as a character by being incredibly selfish later on, and you feel absolutely No sorrow for her and the situation she's in anymore, but before that happens, you can understand Jae Won's dilemma. (The whole thing also makes him look a little bit like a dick for basically promising himself to someone and then as soon as she leaves for a little while, falling for someone else, but I don't really have the energy to tackle that right now.)
But Eun Woo has no excuse for why she went along with her Ex' obnoxious plans for them to get back together, and to get Married, no less. 1) They broke up because he cheated on her (which he continues to do after they get back together, although she never finds out, so it's never actually addressed). 2) There is no reason, character-wise or story-wise, for him to want to get married to anyone when he obviously likes playing the field so much and doesn't appear to have any sort of genuine feelings for Eun Woo. 3) He's unendurably selfish and boring and honestly quite unintelligent. And most importantly, 4) SHE DOESN'T LIKE HIM ANYMORE!!!! Like, I get stuffing her feelings for Jae Won down, because she thinks that he's in love with someone else, but why does that mean your only option is marrying your awful ex whom you don't even like???? There is the option of....simply not doing that.
Again, like I said in my round-up of the story in the second paragraph, they do both eventually break things off with the secondary leads, but not until after what felt like an eon of just going along with whatever the secondary leads had to say. It's just silly and unnecessary and stupid.
This is the second project I've seen Jin Ki Joo in, the first being Secret Life of My Secretary, and she really excels in these cute, aegyo-like roles. (So much so that I really don't even want to see her play more serious characters, because I like her style of aegyo so much.) This is the first project, however, I've seen Hong Bin in, and he alternates between passable (usually whenever his character is being more sad and serious, and I honestly found some of those moments kinda cringey to watch) and quite enjoyable ( mostly whenever he's engaging in banter with Jin Ki Joo). Ki Joo definitely carries this drama and is probably the main reason, outside of how good the production team was at creating that forward motion I mentioned, for why I ended up finishing this.
So yeah. This is a cute, if generic and cliché and occasionally cringey story; good for a quick binge when you need some fluff, but not really something you'll find yourself grabbing when looking for something with substance.

2nd episode:I'm gonna keep watching because of Hongbin
3rd episode:Wait a minute...this is getting better
4th episode:Oh shit,I'M HOOKED
Those were my actual reactions. I wanted to drop the drama halfway through the first episode but i kept watching it and in the end,i really enjoyed it. It doesn't have a great storyline,like it's nothing new and unique,it's not gonna surprise you at all. But it has that fluffiness that everyone enjoys from time to time. The characters grew on me and i'm glad that i didn't stopped watching after the first episode.
So overall,for just a short web drama, i thought it was adorable. Really cliché tho,so if you don't like those kind of stories,this isn't for you.

I had a really hard time watching this, it seemed as though my attention span shrunk to the size of a pea and I would get distracted so easily while watching it. First of all, the plot isn't all of that unique or though-provoking and usually, overdone stories don't bother me too too much. But this drama was completely uninteresting. Web-style or short dramas tend to have many scenes that are appealing to viewers right at the first episodes, but this drama didn't have almost any heart-warming scenes that would make me squeak. Second, the characters didn't feel relatable or, in fact, I could't call them "real people" at all. I only rated this drama quite highly because of the main character chemistry. They were both very adorable. Oh, and that dog too!
Maybe my expectations for short dramas are totally so high up there because of this one web-drama that I've watched recently, but this one isn't worth watching actually. You won't find many romantic or cutesy scenes in this one!

Not worth my time, not even for a simple romcom
!So as a heads up I can not stay relatively neutral and collected in this review!The build up was bad, the writing was bad and the only thing I can truly say I liked was the pleasant music.
I could not stand it.
In the beginning I was prepared for a sweet and simple lovestory but even my low expectations were betrayed.
They decided to go all out on unnecessary clichees, tropes and hateful characters.Hateful? Yes I didn't like any of the characters.
Here is some of the heavy dislikes that almost made my eyes be stuck on the back of my head:
They behave like immature teens or adults in their very early 20 at max. Not some 30 something established ppl with a more organised outlook on life.
Im 19 and I could just not... forget it.
The acting was BAD
The characters all carried their heavy sets of tropes and stereotypes that made me CRINGE hard.
0 chemistry
IDOL DANCE in the room for cuteness (yes it irks me in this drama)
ML Apparently innocent and sensible but of course he had to leave the stage for another guy just to get together with the fml in the end. UGH. Does not make good decisions in leaving her with the ass. No will strength.
The FML What were they trying to do????#Maybe make her youthful and quirky NO?
Acts way too naive, unrealistic mindset, no personal groth after break up, strong for quirks weak for stereotypes omg I hate that.
Gotta need saving, doesn't get her feelings
2ML Simply a douche no way talking around it. Cheater without reason, arrogant, flat.
Special mention to the girl who came back because of course she had to have A LIFE THREATENING TUMOR and didn't listen to the ML and using her sickness to keep him.
This is a insolence to me as the viewer.
Like ok shallow entertainment but this is a wet towel thrown into the corner as drama. It only exists out of tropes, stereotypes, clichees and predictable plotlines
I do not recommend this to anyone basically. Especially not to people who want a rellatively well written story and no abundance in the clichee department.
For me this was a case of lazy writing AND poor execution.

What a beautiful short drama!!! I loved the chemistry between the main couple....I was fascinated by Hong Bin, everytime he talked or smiled my heart was pounding.. I felt like a teenager again ahah
Jin Ki Joo - I saw her on Misty and I watch her again with pleasure.. She is really expressive and cute.
The plot has cliché but it is really enjoyable to watch... Some cute scenes I will always take in my heart (The scene when they wash clothes together .. When they fall asleep during the storm .. The scene of the walk under the cherry trees ..)
IF I have to say a flaw.. ATTENTION SPOILER----> I don't understand why they didn't talk to each other for a whole year.. I mean, you are adults, and adults speak!!!
But I can forgive this little flaw because I really loved the whole drama.
I really liked the OST and I discovered the talented Jukjae :-)

This is my first time seeing the ML and FL and they are both cute and great actors. Amazing chemistry and so natural too! I love that it is not too fluffy but at the same time delivers enough sweetness.
Premise is unique, well one that I have not seen yet in any dramas where guy helps girl in over the top but realistic ways. So glad that they kept the 3rd story arc to a minimum as I really hate it when they have those evil, obsessed and cruel 3rd parties.
Beautiful cinematography too!
The only con I found was the guys' (both ML and 2nd ML) make-up. Their foundations were so obvious as it was both too light and too oily. Too bad as the ML already looks good-looking but the make-up did kind of detract from his cuteness.

The only reason this doesn't have a higher rating is because of the DREADED prolonged lack-of-communication plot device that makes me want to rip my hair out every time it appears in dramas...
