I would rewatch this drama

Probably the best way to express me feelings about this drama is that I would rewatch this drama.
It is the kind of tropey rom com I like my Kdramas to be.
1. The story had enough Consistency for me to create a world and live in the drama for a bit
2. A mature handling of a growing relationship. No silly games just straight forward expression of feelings.
3. Strong serious male lead. The ML‘s aloofness and reason for being the way he well handled. Same with the 2nd ML - perfectly handled why he was so childish. (Best character/acting in the drama).
4. Relatable comedy. The comedic characters and villains were over the top but in a good way. In a way that you knew the drama was doing it intentionally and you got the point and chuckled over it.
5. Emotions. Enough crying, men and women, just enough meddling mums and chaebol issues and supportive friendships, bromance (best part ). Etc
6.low on the angst. Where there was some and you are half expecting some silly decision to amp up the angst, the writers quickly resolved it.
8. A clear message . This is about sexual harassment in the workplace. Also a message that when we turn a blind eye we are part of the problems. We need to make a moral stand.
7. Perfect cliche happy ending.

I would rewatch to just see all the times they poke fun at the cliches in Kdramas while they go right ahead and do the same. Quite witty and lots of fun.

I think if you watch a few rom com Kdramas first to understand the tropes and the distinct cultural flavour you find find this is simply a little gem of a drama.

Has the feel of 1% of something .
