You Are the Best

Really enjoyed watching this. A long and slightly daunting one due to the platform I streamed it on and the annoying grandma and mother. But IU was great. Became a fan. Great performance from her.

I really enjoyed this drama. It is cute and funny, yet emotional when necessary. There are typical clichés like misunderstandings that could be easily solved, evil ex-girlfriends or annoying family members. Yet I don't think they are too overused, and actually it makes the drama better, because the character development is spot on (especially regarding the family of the main female lead). The cast were outstanding, especially the main leads- played by Lee Ji-Eun (IU) and Jo Jung-Suk. I particularly liked how the CEO isn't the typical cold, rich man, rather he is awkward (frequently tripping over when he sees the female lead) and sweet. I like the little details such as the background music in the restaurant where the female lead works. All of the plots were compelling, and they continued to get better throughout the series. Don't let the number of episodes put you off!
