Oh, this was disappointing. It started out well with some laugh out loud moments in Episode 1 and then it just fell flat. However, I kept at it because I thought for sure that things would change, but alas, they didn’t. ML was an entitled jerk at the beginning and then three years later, he’s now a General Manager with a strong work ethic. What? How did that happen? FL is a bumbling dietician in training but finally manages to become a trained dietician, against all odds. When they accidentally are reunited because FL is now working as the dietitian/nutritionist at company run by ML, FL acts timid and lacks confidence while ML bullies and manipulates her constantly! You’d think they’d both grow out of these major character flaws but no! We, the viewers are subjected to seeing this behavior for endless episodes. Somehow, they’re both still attracted to one another despite these issues and finally begin to realize and act upon their feelings for one another. Even so, it took about 13 ½ of the 14 episodes before each of them actually shows the maturity they should have started developing in Episode 5. I really wish the FL wasn’t such a milque-toast and that ML wasn’t such a bully so often. The other issue that baffled me was how they had a connection. Granted, they slept together three years ago and there were fireworks but besides that, all they seem to have in common is his malnutrition and her ability to provide nutritious food. You don’t get the sense that they have much else in common. She literally is Miss Frumpy and he’s Mr. Model. Side note—he is SO good-looking! It would have been nice to see her dress nicely and it really didn’t seem that she would be his ideal woman at all. I didn’t like the other woman who thought she was his girlfriend as she was conniving and superficial but I don’t know which one was worse. Clearly the FL at least was honest and had integrity. Of course, she was hiding a lot—herself, her family, her past, etc. All that added to my frustration. I mean, be your own person! The best character in the whole series, in my opinion, was FL’s friend—the author/Book and Beer owner who was kind, forgiving and loyal and cute too! He seemed much more the type for FL frankly. Anyway, I skipped Episodes 10-12 but finished it simply because I couldn’t give up since I was so deep in but it wasn’t a favorite. This is the first one that I really didn’t enjoy that much and still feel frustrated by so many aspects because it really had a lot of potential. I think the actors did well with what they were given but ultimately it was the plot, and the writing, which lacked depth in character development, that let this series down.
