Simple Taiwanese romance drama -- a noona in a workplace setting. Naturalistic, youthfully modern with progressive issues, but some seriously controlling female characters. Two out of three mothers and a manipulative girlfriend wanna-be are the kind that make one curse the screen, so you should close the door while watching so as not to disturb others in the household.

Otherwise the formula works well and the aesthetics (dessert shop in pink, the usual upper floor flat, the found family dinners etc) are pleasant. The really cute Fan Fan Di as the ML interprets passion and desire well, and he and the FL do a good job depicting a relatively realistic relationship. Definitely messaging that patience is a virtue in producing commitment.

Not much symbolism or visual care but nothing glaring. The street scenes are pretty but perhaps that is just the wealthy neighborhood used for filming. At the big corporation the meetings are unusually pleasant to watch (nice lighting, walls are not blank, camerawork is good) and a huge oval (I think?) stairwell is used for emotional perspective -- one woman whom one wishes to punish leaves alone, another time the ML sees his mom being kind, contrary to his (and our) opinion of her. 24 eps at 1hr ea, so a large time investment, but if you are just after simple pleasures go for it.

I dont read others' reviews until I am done, precisely so that I wont do this, but a quick correction, sort of. Yes, suicide and family secrets and the usual accidents and sudden illnesses make this not as smooth a ride as I may have implied. I am a kdrama obsessive so it all seemed pretty mild to me. It may be too strong for you, watch with caution if you have no idea what I am talking about..
