A show that could have had great potential but went downhill after the first few episodes

When this drama first released I loved the cast and the first few episodes were great too. It was nice seeing a drama where the main couple got together pretty early on but that just ended up making the show a lot less exciting to watch. This show used to be something I waited ever weekend for and eventually I started watching the episodes only when I had nothing else to watch. It's ironic that I even made it to episode 15 but I can't be bothered to continue it anymore, I kept telling myself that it could get better but it really did not.

Amongst that many things I didn't like about the show here are the main ones:

1. When the exes go to each other for advice??? Makes no sense and it felt ridiculous to watch the FL give and get advice from the man who cheated on her. Same with the ML.
2. FL's ex is so strange, he behaves like a toddler--has terrible communication skills and a huge inferiority complex.
2. The whole weather station concept could've been a great way to show a job that hasn't been shown much in kdramas but God they made it so boring.
3. I'm a huge fan of OSTs but this one did not stand out at all...you could play a song from there and I probably wouldn't recognise it.
4. The couples did not have much chemistry at all for the most part. Ironic how flashbacks of the FL with her ex had more chemistry than her with her current boyfriend.
5. It feels like this drama could've been made into 12 episodes instead of 16 and nothing would be taken away from the plot.

I know this is a pretty harsh review and I'm genuinely not one to dislike a drama that much but save your time, this isn't worth the watch. I am a fan of Song Kang and Park Minyoung but this drama was far from their best work.

Regardless of the ending, it's still worth a watch

Though I marked it as 'contains spoilers' here is a relatively spoiler free review for people that wanted to watch the show when it finished airing but are now hesitant after seeing the reactions to episode 16. I used the word 'relatively' because even though I'm not saying what happened, the words I use make it easy to figure out the ending.

This show is beautiful, it really is. The way they portrayed sportsmanship, relationships and friendships were everything. I found myself crying to scenes that weren't necessarily sad because the actors did a really good job at making me feel a million different emotions. Let's not forget the fact that there are so many hilarious scenes and great character development.
If you want your heart to not feel like a hollow shell, it's best you stop watching by episode 14. It's really not about a sad or happy ending but rather a really rushed one. They could've cut out some scenes and explained a bit more on why things turned out the way they did but unfortunately they didn't. It definitely is worth a watch but if an ending makes or breaks a show for you, it's best to pretend the show ends in episode 14. I'm sure you saw the word realistic being thrown around whenever anyone mentioned the ending and I love realistic shows...just not when it's done like this.

A Perfect Wind-Down Drama

Need a break from depressing/thrilling dramas? This'll do the job. If you're a fan of WWWSK, you're bound to love this.
A cute, cliche, romance drama where every misunderstanding that is created, is resolved in the same episode, never have I been so stress free watching a show. The chemistry between the actors in the drama and in real life are spectacular.

What I liked about the show:
1. The fact that this drama has tropes I love:
- Contract relationship/ Forced Proximity
- Boss/Employee Relationship
- ML falls in love first
2. Problems aren't dragged out for 10 episodes and are almost immediately solved.
3. The soundtrack, MeloMance killed it with Love, Maybe.
4. The dialogue, albeit a bit cringey at times, really made my heart flutter.
5. The amount of effort Kang Taemoo put into doing things for Shin Hari because he liked her.

What I didn't like about the show:
1. “Do you know what my love for you and this credit card have in common? They both have no limit.” The fact that no man will ever tell me this.

I have to be honest, there are a lot of cheesy scenes in this drama and if you're someone that can't tolerate any second-hand embarrassment, it's best you skip this even though the drama did a good job at making those scenes really funny.
