Mind. Blown.

Literally just finished this drama. I'm left speechless by how good this is from beginning to end. As the drama progresses, you realize just how multi-layered the plot is. I often found myself going back to rewatch earlier episodes, because the later episodes make you realize just how many details you missed.

The writing, the acting, the music, the twists and turns are so well done, especially the pacing. SO many carefully crafted details. Many darker topics are covered with incredibly realistic emotions by the actors. The acting is so good that it doesn't even feel like acting. The characters and plot have so much depth. As I finished the last episode, I found myself staring into the distance, in silence and complete awe, as I thought about the journey each character had in this drama. Definitely no lazy writing here.

This drama is honestly a masterpiece. It will make you wonder if you'll ever watch anything this good again.

Are you looking for something light and fluffy after watching too many scheming ancient dramas, emotionally exhausting melodramas, or just want something to relax to after a long day of work?

If so, consider watching Refresh Man. Honestly speaking, the overall story is nothing new, but the love story is sweet. But it's for that reason that this drama is a leisurely watch. You don't need to think much at all. Just enjoy the good-looking main leads with their cute love story. The acting is acceptable, but again, this is not the type of drama to require strong acting chops.

I liked that the female lead is not air-headed and that her love "rival" isn't even technically a rival. There's no petty cattiness or frustrating misunderstandings.

There's also uplifting life reminders throughout the drama for people who are in their mid-20s and beyond; the situations are very relatable. Who hasn't felt stuck in life at one point, or felt too comfortable, then slowly became less and less ambitious?

Aaron Yan and Joanne Tseng have a good dynamic, the side characters have good stories, and it doesn't drag things on for too long. Overall, this is a decent drama.
