The start to this drama was good. Soo good. Its just the ending that makes you want to end it soon. This is not a bad drama at all. But it could have ended in 12 eps. the last four eps were just 1 episode + product placements + scene fillers + dragging for no reason.

Starting with the ML... He was an actor i wanted to keep an eye out since i watched Descendants of the Sun. Kim Min Jae has definitely earned the screentime of a ML and i think i could complete this drama because of his efforts (which could be felt in every sinking scene). His character is loud but not annoying, crazy but not tactless. ML was such a kind and sweet guy that sometimes i wish he would reallly be a bit ruder. But overall he carried the drama. Cant wait for more such dramas.

Park Gyu Young as Dali was likeable initially but after a while she didnt seem like an assertive enough person and just got on my nerves for the same reason. The way she forgave huge mistakes was just unbelievable. throughout the drama she felt powerless. She kept needing someone to save her and it was a bit much. Especially when she does react strongly its a great scene. I know people like this do exist but after the traumatic things that happened to her you would expect bigger reactions.
SPOILER: Her biggest reaction was dealing with the thief at the police station and after that nothing.

Annoying characters: OMG. What is up with ML's family. Why isn't there even one redeemable character.
So many slaps in the drama but not one to the stepmom. ML's father was unlikeable, loud and annoying. ( got annoyed with the ML character here because he only seemed mildly bothered by both and didnt take any action against their madness. )

I wonder why writers keep such characters where we are clearly supposed to hate them but still tolerate for some reason???

Like:
- The main leads chemistry. Romance quotient was high...
- Good aesthetic
- Happy Ending
- Humour level was good . ML definitely hard carried the drama.
- The few episodes that had a bit of mukbang/food scenes ( Ep 1, 11, 12 , 16)
- The cop friend, the secretary and museum staff.

Dislike:
- THE PARENTS!!! Ughhh.
- Dali's hairstyle ( I mean... maybe change it after some eps.
- Last 3-4 draggy eps.
- Everything else was alright.

Overall: It has veryy few art references. Only the location is a museum.
Watch it for KMJ , the leads chemistry and a fairly good plot.

Simple story

I'm not going to write much about the plot lines other than exactly what i liked and didnt like so this may contain major **SPOILERS** depending on how you read it

LIKED:
- No brain hurting plot lines, just straight forward romance. Main lead went straight from frenemies to lovers. And since i am really fond of Lee Sung Kyung it helped to finish the drama.
- FL is strong and independent.
- Multiple couples with satisfying pairing.
- Can keep up with the storyline even if youre distracted for a few seconds.

DISLIKED:
- I expected more chemistry between the main leads. But since there were sooo many couples to distract i just didnt care by the end of it.
- Really really REALLY weak justice to crimes like trespassing, stalking, hate crimes, and death threats. It was unsatisfying af to see characters just forgive and move on like they didnt suffer psychological trauma.
- Some characters were plain useless in the overall story line. (hint: the mother)
- Could be wrapped up in 12 episodes.

Overall you can watch it if you're a fan of LSK or Kim Young Dae. Its a light romance , no unecessary dramatic break ups, uncomplicated drama.

Almost perfect

It gave a lot of Goblin vibes as other people have mentioned. But it is very different from Goblin. I delayed watching this drama because i got a lot of gloomy vibes from it and i was right. It was really sad and I cried in many episodes. So you need tissues for sure.

Initially it was difficult for me to continue the drama with full attention because up to episode 4 i couldn't figure out why ML wanted the world to end, what was this "contract" and why he was soo after the FL. I loveee SIG but maybe the writers didn't write his part convincingly or what I'm not sure, but he didn't really seem to HATE hate human beings enough to end the world. (maybe i was expecting Lucifer level hate).
After the 4th episode things were a bit clearer and the drama got interesting. This is another drama where the story is shorter than the drama. The story and twists could be 6eps long but the drama was 16 eps. Anyway i loved SIG's face and FL is cute as a button so no complaints there.

I know a lot of people didn't like the second leads love-triangle plot but i loved it. Maybe i could relate to it? I liked that the 2nd FL didnt choose the 'school crush' who was rude and left her hanging for yearssss. Their story showed growth and maturity as they age... Its rarely seen where the girl choses the second ML even if it is the sub plot here. I'm looking forward to that day when we will have the main FL choose the sweeter second ML. #endsecondleadsyndrome

LIKED:
- The long fond looks between ML and FL. Main leads chemistry was good. Romance goes from hugs to kisses and cuddling.
- FL's entire support system- her best friend, brother, aunty.
- The happy ending
- SIG (he's just tooo handsome)
- Park Bo Young (she's just too cute!!)
- No crazy twists, no recurring annoying characters,


DISLIKED:
- The sadness and crying. omg so much of it and for so long.
- 16 eps
- Storyline could have been slightly better

Overall, watch it for the main leads, emotional ride, for a fantasy, magical fixing of situation type drama.
