Okay, I admit that the story was very rocky at the start, and I was very close to dropping it but I am glad I watched it all the way through! My friend who recommended me this also warned me about it already, so I pressed on and was not disappointed.

One of the things I like about this drama is the portrayal of mental health in Korean media. I haven't seen kdrama in years, so I'm not sure about how much it has progressed but I am glad that at least this drama gives mental health an avenue for discussion instead of it being taboo in traditional Korean culture. Unfortunately, the thing I did not like about that was how comical it was, and how it pretty much merged social anxiety and introversion in one? When those two are different? Anyway, what's important is that its opened that topic up, but I hope that even if this is a romantic comedy, people would take that aspect of it seriously. Another thing also brought up here was a trans character, and their acceptance. It was a small part of the whole thing but, still I appreciate that so much.

Overall, despite a rocky start, it was still quite enjoyable. I loved the chemistry between Yeon Woo Jin and Park Hye Soo! They are such a cute couple here, and the height difference.. I live for it. The rest of the cast seemed to have fun too, and that's what I like about romcoms like these... It's that very fluffy feeling you get when you can see everyone having fun. I really liked the soundtrack as it was well incorporated into the scenes and the songs were catchy, I admit they kept me in the mood to see this even if there were some parts that were just "meh" to me. The "meh" parts are actually why I gave this drama a low rewatch value, as there were a lot of points that got predictable to me. I was also very annoyed with Chae Ro Woon at the start, but it was nice to see her grow throughout the series. Yeon Woo Jin was very very cute here, I can make a whole separate review just about him but I am wrapping up already so yeah HAHAHA

Despite the points I mentioned above, it's still a fun watch if you'd like something light, though there are some quite triggering parts when it covers the mental health issues. I'd compare this drama to probably, tiramisu. Tiramisu looks like a sweet dessert cake, but the coffee is there with a bitter taste. Even so, the bitter coffee taste compliments the sweetness, and the layers of the tiramisu would apply to the layers of Chae Ji Hye's story and what it has to do with the characters around her.
