Predictable, cute happy fluff!

a very very typical rom com formula focused on the comedy and the sugar
it's super tropey with many trip-over-and-accidentally-kiss scenes
but they are so cute(!!!) and like they recognize it's tropey too with the manga/anime profession as the background

with all tropey dramas we worry that there would be evil 2nd leads trying to break the leads apart and that would get really draggy over multiple episodes
but the big sad valley here really doesn't last more than 2 episodes so you can rest assured when you dive into the drama
(and if you're really angry, fast forward is always an option... the ending makes up for it I promise)

so I would recommend if you're in for some cute happy fluff
plus the two actors, despite being very new to the industry, are surprisingly well-suited for their roles?
though I think they changed quite a bit of the script (based on how the voice doesn't match the mouth) so if you get very annoyed by the Chinese dubbing habit that might be some points off)

also check out the behind-the-scenes of their "3 minute long kiss" on YouTube
will add to your viewing experience for sure :)
