I only gave a 9/10 because I became emotionally invested in Siwon's character, and do not accept he way the show ended, otherwise it's a good show.

Lovely story very relatable to most women. Her character is very very funny and sweet . Ther story line was unpredictable it was really fun to watch .

The female lead annoyed me on 1st episode, so I stopped watching for a while. But I can't resist my urge to resume bcos PSJ was in it! And the plot was my usual romance twist where the guy hate the girl at 1st but ended up falling for her later on 🤣 And the female lead character became bearable eventually 😀

This is what I wrote after just first two episodes:

I am only on episode two of this series and am already frustrated with the extreme overacting of the female lead. She is presented as "ugly" even though she is quite decent looking. I don't know what the hell Korean beauty standards are. And then her ugliness entails being extremely loud and clumsy and doing completely stupid things that you would never expect from a 30 year old. And on top of that Park Seojoon's character is shown as so arrogant and demeaning. He just insults her to her face. In any workplace that would be grounds for dismissal. I am not sure how much of this drama I'll be able to tolerate before I quit.

Now, after finishing the series, here is my genuine review: Really liked the whole series except for one glaring flaw. There was no reason for the leading lady to undergo the transformation that she does in the second half. Everything was going her way- her job was good, the male lead was falling for her.. the series did a bad job of explaining the transformation. And then, when she becomes a writer she goes back to her previous self. It's weird. Anyway, there were several things I liked about this series. The biggest one was that the male lead falls for the girl BEFORE the transformation and isn't just miraculously struck by her beauty after the transformation. I think that is what made it realistic and likeable. Also, the side characters are not annoying like in other dramas which is so refreshing. I didn't have to skip the parts with side characters. Also, I really liked the second female lead.

I waited until the end to write my review and well, i liked it! I'm totally fangirling over Siwon and loved his role in it the best. I wish his ending was a bit better though. The male lead was really obnoxious at first but thankfully grew out of it; i'd have thought knowing his background he'd have been a bit nicer to the underdog but i guess there's a story to tell. The humour was great (the port-a-loo/toilet scene in the countryside was the BEST) and well, as predictable as it was it was a nice, happy show with a feel-good vibe and good laughs :)
