a romance in the idol world that leaves you wanting more

A woman doing everything from cleaning a convenience story to deliveries in order to sign a man whose face isn't as pretty as to warrant such level of commitment.

Okay, I'm in no way roasting the show, it's actually a straightforward series on what it takes to make it in the hell that is the idol industry told in the agent's pov. She is about to lose her job, when she sees a man who she considers handsome -just tall, no charisma- and if she signs him she'll save her career and start his. They fight together from there.

The romantic progression is slow but sweet and believable. And bonus points for depicting a blossoming older woman x younger man romance without stooping in ageist cliches. Their partnership and eventual relationship flows naturally. But beware, there are no kiss scenes, to the show's detriment.

My two gripes with this otherwise worthwhile show is A. it's too short to be fleshed out, it left me wanting to see more of the female lead fighting her way in the music industry. B. the male lead's acting is subpar. I am not being deliberately mean, it's a fact, and it's highlighed by the great performance of the female lead. I am sure they picked him just because he is tall - I blame all of you for elevating charmless men to fame just because they're over 1.85. Guess what, if a person can't act well, he'll be like a long stick without expression. I hope he gains experience and acting lessons because his management picks good projects for him so far.

TL;DR worth your time, it'll put a smile on your face
