Heartwarming, Cozy and Intelligent

Cozy, intelligent, heartwarming, whimsical - there are so many ways to describe this drama, which just goes to show much care and craft was put into it. I actually finished this drama awhile back, around the time it aired. Then I found some old notes about it on my computer and realized I never actually left a review.

The best of this drama is the characters. I love their dialogue and interactions. What the characters say and how they are saying them, feel clever, intricate and layered. I always appreciate a well-written and intelligent female lead and WYW really delivered. She will likely go down as one of my favorites. I loved the character chemistry and how the major relationships, romantic and friendship, turned out. This was due in large part of cast chemistry as well. The acting on everyone's parts (especially our FL) is phenomenal from tone and infliction down to subtle interactions. The comedy here was especially good in part because though minute movement and expressions landed so well.

The plot is good too. I really enjoyed the court cases although I have no idea how "accurate" they are. I appreciate the insight the show gives on how it's not always about "justice" and the moral grey zone that comes with large corporations. I did think the ending was a little rushed and the "main" storyline was a little sloppy.

Music was okay, nothing memorable sticking out but complemented the tone of the show. As for rewatch - I will still go back and watch clips from this show.

In conclusion, I highly recommend this show for a good time.
