Now you'd think my ratings would be overestimating the value of the show, but I thought it was absolutely fantastic.

If you didn't think there was any character development, that's more or less true. Their overcoming unrequited loves that don't just immediately go away. It's not as easy to forget especially when you're around them so much. This story isn't so fluffy since the main character is trying to get the girl of his dreams to fall for him even though she's married and he sleeps with a girl who isn't interested in him either to comfort each other's unrequited loves. There isn't any real visible character changes until the end where they accept their unrequited loves, but what else can we expect? Love isn't that easy and the drama perfectly depicts that.

What really gets me is the female lead isn't the typical female lead in dramas. Where they're mentally weak and easily impressionable, will follow the male lead anywhere and believes he can do anything. This lead never brought her walls down for him, she plays the same game as him when it comes to entrapping the other. She's independent and still, I find her so mysterious. Has she ever loved someone? It all seems so convenient for her to be with the man she's with. You can either love her or hate her.

She's incredibly cute and sexy especially in the middle of episode 8. And the kiss scenes actually doesn't make you want to cringe. Every episode my heart feels torn and I would get mad, but thats what dramas should do: they should move you. I also kept wanting to watch more and more to the point where I needed to stop and had to look at spoilers to end some of the crave.

The music, especially phonecall was extremely good and matched well to the heartbreak. It really elevated the emotions of the drama. The background music would probably the best part of the drama.

I would definitely rewatch this again but skip the trivial side couples. Some say they like them best but what really captivated me was the main character's love interests.

Incredibly boring. There was probably only one episode where it made me want to watch the next episode. The story is so cliche and generic. Female lead is like any female lead in a girl's manga. She wants to support the man and would sacrifice her own opportunities for him because she's in love. She's passive and quiet. I finished 10 episodes in a day because I didn't bother to process any scene, I usually like to take my time and rewatch if I missed something.

I'm glad it isn't like a kdrama focusing on social class clash but I felt this story could have been more original. Everything was predictable and expected, and there was no romantic development that made me swoon.

I thought the main lead was the most interesting, though. Eccentric genius who didn't back down.

Maybe because I've watched a lot of dramas. Maybe because I watched this right after finishing Shitsuren Chocolatier. Maybe because this is an older drama so it stayed to its traditional storylines. Man is powerful, lady is his helper, she falls for him first.

I would not rewatch this again because i could find this anywhere else but probably elsewhere more interesting than this.
