One of my most fav drama for this year. Not only good acting and script but it also has so many beautiful quotes/lines that warmed my heart and funny scenes to brighten my days. Completed with great OST. All songs in this drama took part in perfect scenes and I love all of them. I also learned so much from this series like how to saving money and start thinking more serious about future. Super recommended!

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.

I needed to rate this a solid ten. I love Kdrama series, but frankly, some of them seem to either loose their luster midway or simply get bogged down or repetitive trying to make the 16 episodes. To me, I found such delight in every episode. Always a new twist, a new adventure, a new relationship to iron out awaited me. So, I laughed, smiled, and clapped my hands throughout everyone of the sixteen episodes. I thought the selection of actors and actresses was absolutely perfect and every one added a special something to look forward to. Since I need to complain about something, it would be that I don't understand why the short hair "assistant" always had a black mask worn below her chin. Secondly, there is one relationship that was left unresolved. One of the perfectly delightful aspects of many Kdramas is concurrent relationships that I so much enjoy watching develop and this series nailed that.

I also wanted to say that I watched this on Amazon Prime. Prime has a horrible dearth of Kdramas and really needs to up their game. Having said that, three of the my very favorite Kdramas have been on Amazon: Hogus's Love, Flower boy next door, and now Monthly Magazine Home. We need more Amazon, Please!

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
