It was Okay I guess.

I was super excited for Kim Jae-Wook's return to the screen after almost a 3 year break after My Private life and the story seemed okay only. Cliché but honestly I don't really mind clichés if done properly. Wasn't particularly excited or not excited about Krystal cause I haven't really finished any of the dramas that she has been in, so her being in the drama didn't really contribute to my decision to watch it. What did contribute to my decision was Kim Jae Wook (of course ) and his statement at an interview where he said that he chose to star in this drama cause it was super fun and entertaining and he wanted to offer some relief to people who had been going through a hard time in the past years [pandemic sighh]. Anyway, the initial episodes were of course a bit cliché as people have already pointed out with a terrible boss, a suffering secretary, an old love which has recently resurfaced etc. The amnesia and Krystal pretending to be her boss's fake fiance took me by surprise and then I went fishing for some information in discussions threads and spoiled myself. You know I liked the drama [which is evident from the fact that I completed it] but I have to be honest, i had higher expectations. Here are some things that I really didn't like.
1. I couldn't really get into the romance as much as I would have liked, there was no true connection, he started liking her because she took care of him [which is super basic], they were no star-crossed lovers and I personally don't understand why she fell in love with him [he has a pleasing face I'll give you that]. but after a person's been so terrible t you it would take some miracle for you to fall in love with that person and I personally think that there was no such miracle.
2. Mr. Noh Go-Jin your entire company is being ruined right in front of your eyes and here you are busy romancing your new girlfriend. He had literally no strategy on how to save his company, it just seems that everything happened by fluke and he was super lucky. I mean you have an IQ of 190 PLEASE USE IT. Also his main strategy of pretending about something [basically a spoiler] and was made out to be such a central point in the plot did not really add anything significant in the story in the end [except for bringing the leads together], i mena he would have been just fine without it.
3. In the end episodes i think that Krystal became merely an accessory without any significant presence. I mean her role was limited to her dates with Noh Go Jin which I really don't mind, but there was a literal revenge plot in there in which she had no part to play. She's just say a few basic well-meaning words and hug him a couple of times and that was it. I really wish the female lead had a more dominating presence in the plot of the drama and not just romantic interest for Noh Goh JIn [ I mean I know its a romance drama and all but her role somehow didn't hold a lot of significance]
4. The side characters were so basic and 2 dimensional, I mean I think that did not have any presence of their own and did not have any significance if the leads are taken out of the equation. this is to say that they didn't really have any existence outside of the leads story. even the so-called villains trying to plot revenge against Noh Goh Jin turned out to be almost pathetic and unoriginal in the end. Honestly, I personally don't like villains and prefer stories where there aren't any, but if there are I like them to be well written characters and not what was here.
5. we don't get to see much of the lead's professions. One reason why I love watching dramas and innovative one's at that is because I get to watch people be good that their jobs in so many different fields, but here we barely got to see Noh Goh Jin or in fact any other character hold a class for even 2 minutes, even though it is literally their profession.

What I did like was that the comedic timing of the drama and the characters was perfect, there were some scenes that I absolutely loved and as a result rewatched them many times. In those I would include the scenes of physical fights between the leads [yes physical].
overall it was a good drama worth a watch. Not really going to rewatch it. the story was innovative and honestly could have been executed in a better way but overall it was Okay. Not a classic but not super bad also.
