Unique blend of different genres and excels in all of them

The show has a good mix of different elements - romance, thriller, mystery, comedy, business drama etc. None of them feel "tacked on", they feel like a serious part of the drama. For example the business discussions get quite technical about financial things etc. The thrilling scenes really get my heart pounding. The mysteries have lots of plot twists. The romantic scenes can be amazingly touching (especially proposal scene), etc.

The pacing of this show is really great. It starts off and quite quickly gets to be running at 110% speed, then suddenly just over half way through it slows down and there are some light, romantic episodes. And then it ramps up again to a big finale. I really liked the way it was structured.

This is the 4th C-Drama I've finished so I'm not an expert but I do appreciate this show not falling into common bad practices. Such as misunderstandings which last for many episodes (all misunderstandings are quickly resolved) or plot holes being ignored (everything gets a satisfying explanation).

There are sooo many comments about the FL's acting but it didn't bother me personally. I should mention that I'm not really someone who notices acting skills (in other shows including US produced shows, I haven't noticed bad actors until people pointed it out to me). But to me, the way she acted just seemed very comfortable with the ML. I liked that.

One criticism I would have is that there are no real side couples. They tease two potential side couples but it never really amounts to anything. Because of that, some of the scenes with the supporting characters just ended up feeling a bit pointless. I think the supporting characters could have been cast differently to create more believable chemistry.

The OST is amazing, lots of relaxing romantic songs, including some with English lyrics.

Overall I think you should definitely watch this show, it's a great story which kept me entertained to the end. I don't usually watch things again but if I did, I would probably watch it again, just as "comfort food" because it's very sweet.
