A simple and sweet romcom
I saw this romcom recommended in some reddit threads so I decided to give it a chance. The story is pretty predictable for a plot revolving around a contractual marriage. It all starts from the FL, Kim Da Hyeon, saving and taking an older man to the hospital. This man ends up being Lee Gyu Chul, the chairman of SH Group. In an attempt to make his grandson change into a better person, being less arrogant and a jerk, he changes his will so that Lee Jae In, the ML, will inherit his fortune if the two leads enter into a contractual marriage.
However, will they both agree?
ML is an arrogant jerk that is not liked by those around him including coworkers. The FL is a teacher that is usually kind and warm but does not sit back when needed. She can be sassy and a bit sly if needed. Hearing the offer the FL strongly disagrees from the start but ultimately agrees to date the ML for 6 months.
As time goes on they start getting closer, going on dates and spending time with each other so they slowly fall for one another. Despite some angst involving an ex to the ML, that by the way is very unlikable, and a breakup later on they end up together.
The story is pretty boring and bland in my opinion. There is not much depth to the characters, especially the FL. She has no backstory. They could have added some backbone to her so she could be relatable. Maybe something about her childhood, her dreams or life prior. She was very superficial. That stands true for others also. including both MLs and FLs family members, for example the ML mother(s)
I didn't know of the lead actors prior to this drama. I later saw that ML played a guest role in CLOY but I don't remember him. Their acting was pretty good and their chemistry was decent.
Overall it’s still a nice drama to watch when you want something easy, relaxing and calm. The episodes are on the shorter sides for those who prefer that as well. It wasn't all bad. It was sweet and cute as well. The story is too simple and I have realized I just enjoy more emotional and/or intriguing plots.
