very normal and down to earth drama....
its a very simple romantic drama with likable side characters.... there is nothing too good or too bad about this drama... its slow paced and dont have any high-end drama or twist or revelations...
PROS:
1. its a proper office romance... unlike some dramas of this genre where the characters are in the office but dont do any job, here all the characters are shown to be working and facing troubles that a normal cosmetic company will be facing... both the leads are very dedicated to their work and so is the other people in the office...
2. the ML might come off as pushy and stalkerish in the first 2 episodes but the FL never encouraged his behaviors or crossing the line and he does reflect on his actions... he is very open to criticism and dont think too high of himself... if he crosses the line and the FL calls him out, he backs off and never repeats the same mistake...
3. the side characters also have pretty decent stories esp the ML's second sister...
4. the romance and their chemistry look very real.. the chemistry isnt passionate or hot but it looks real... when they go on dates and walk holding hands they look like a real couple we see on the streets... neither too clingy nor too distant... the comfort level is there...
5. the bond b/w the 3 siblings and the niece... i like how involved the aunt and uncle are with the niece... the MLs family comes off as a very decent classy family... they are rich but dont have the stereotypes that rich people in kdramas have...
CONS:
1. it can be a bit slow and since nothing major happens it can be really boring for a binge watch... i think i finished it solely because i was watching only 2 episdoes per week...
ACTING:
the acting in this drama is decent... i have only seen rowoon in extraordinary you and his character didnt had much depth so his acting chops cannot be judged solely based on EO... he comes off as a decent actor in this drama... he isnt awkward or makes over-exaggerated facial expressions... i wont say he is a really good actor but he definitely is nowhere near being bad... there is nothing to dislike about his acting and he is good enough not to ruin a character with his acting... i guess my only complaint is they use too much makeup on him... his nose and lips are highlighted way too much... some kdramas need to tone down the lipstick of the male characters... at times its more than the female characters...
i have seen woo jiah only in melting me softly and she was unimpressive in it... but after watching her in this i think she dont suit comedy but is not a bad actor... even though she is very petite and tiny she dont really come off as cute or delicate and thats maybe because she has a very strong voice... she dont sound like a teenager and that helps her look very matured despite her small figure... she looks belivable as a strong independent carrier oriented woman... she is a workaholic and that makes her come off as less involved in the relationship... she isnt as intense as the ML which might not go down well with some people that want to see intense romance from both sides but she is not really at fault... its just that both the leads love differently... the ML is ready to give his 100% in a relationship whereas the FL dont go to that extend even if she is genuinely in love with her partner...
i really liked the child artist playing the ML's niece... as most kdramas, the kid is more matured and wiser for her age but all her scenes were really good... her interactions with all the characters were interesting...
overall the drama is a decent watch but i don't think i will ever rewatch it... i dont think this is the kind of drama that has high rewatch value...
