I didn't expect to enjoy this series as much as I did. I laughed so much and although parts were super silly or over the top; it was done in a way to make it hilarious and enjoyable to watch....until Episode 16! I hope the writer (who may write other KDramas) thinks about how an ending wraps things up nicely or is a let down. After all the main characters went thru to finally come together-the ending was a let down. I won't go into spoilers other than saying things were wrapping up beautifully until you took another turn to throw in more drama and not good drama! This is a pattern I see in some KDramas. The need to add so many plot twists is not appealing. Every characters story was good but it went downhill halfway thru Episode 16. Booo!

Korean Drama "Monthly Magazine Home" is a slice of life drama with a fun couple as the main focus.

The drama offers enough cute moments, like the colourful tips on how to save money in order to buy a house. The main couple was, in addition, the biggest provider of these moments as well, especially the male lead, who was frustrating at times, but funny and enjoyable overall. The romance was also pretty sweet, but the progress was messy and close to a slow burn. The love triangle was not well handled either. Still, the side characters were interesting enough to keep things aloof and entertaining when the romance was failing to live up to its potentials.

However, what makes this drama not as good as it should have been, even though it checked all the boxes of an enemies to lovers trop, is that it is forgettable, as it didn't offer anything special, and the ending was bad. The latter was open, confused things for no real reason and it was just ridiculous. Plus, looking back, the drama didn't really leave any impression, nor had anything to say. It was just an office rom com with no sufficient plot.

So, overall, 6 out of 10.

Honestly it was ok, not good but okay. However the ending made anything want to sit down and have a stern conversation with the writers. I just did not get why they went the route they took.

Also, the build up of the female and male lead was not fluid. I thought she had better chemistry with the photographer as the writers seem to take more time in building their relationship.

The second leads were fun but I wish there character development were more than what was presented.

Honestly, the more I write in this review the more annoyed I get about the ending and want to lower the rating. Oh well, watch it but be prepared for a disappointment at the end. Or maybe you won't.

Reviewing after watching whole drama TBH,this drama deserves morethan jst 5stars..Every character in dis drama will remember for long time❤

If you are fed up wth all suspense/action dramas,surely this drama will help you From Starting to ending,there was not even a single boring scene

Jungsomin and kimjiseok wow what a cute pair 😍😍😍😍

Had this on my watchlist forever and kept putting it off; finally watched it and sorry I didn't watch it sooner as I found it to be really funny and fun to watch which I wasn't expecting by the description. It had quite a few recognizable actors which is really something since I am from the US and don't know that many. The male lead I recognized from other dramas and he plays a good CEO. I enjoyed the real estate theme and actually enjoyed the home tours and value estimates on the homes which seemed to be really nice houses and for good prices. The romance was there however the kiss scenes could have been a little better - just touching lips doesn't count for a leading man kiss - I would suggest male leads that want to up their popularity do a study on kisses from Lee Min-ho; a little more effort. Also would have liked to see a little better ending scripted. But all in all a funny drama worth watching.
