This is in many ways a typical Korean romance, with two attractive actors beset by barriers as they stumble toward their future. The various obstacles serve to provide sufficient impetus to justify most of the 16 episode running time.
There are moments when the drama grasps at something more impactful. The travails of the heroine do carry some emotional weight, struggling as she is with illness and an overly desperate mother.
But at the end of the series much of this impact had dissipated and I was left with a moderately enjoyable romance. If you enjoy such things, as I do, then give it a go.

At first, I still didn't feel the chemistry but when everything started to make sense, I understood why they were acting that way. I am glad I continued to watch. The stories of the different characters are realistic. I'm sure many can relate. Besides the love story, it has also showed the side of sickness, anxiety and depression and how someone can cope with this. It reminds us that we all need each other. We all need to communicate with each other. Episodes 11 and 12 definitely showed more love and chemistry between Choiseung and Seok Ryo. Can't wait to see more sweet moments of them. Hoping for a happy ending for all of them 💞
I really loved the female protagonist " in because this is my first life". So I was excited to find her in this drama, the male protagonist I am unfamiliar with.
I feel like the plot is in the title, and they are taking such a long time to connect the two characters. Meanwhile, we have to endure the lovable but violent parents. There is something on out of kilter in this romcom. I cannot figure out what it is except that it's taking a very long time to bring the two characters together, I want very much to like this, but is not winning me over.
Finally, the ending episodes have succeeded in winning me over and I feel pleased-that I finished the story and hung in there with the characters. Up until episode seven ,Everything else was confusing and too drawn-out for me.

Okay so first I am definitely in love with this show as I am a huge fan of Jung Hae In.
So story goes like - A woman attempting to reboot her life returns to Korea and becomes entangled with her childhood friend with whom she shares a complicated history.
Needless to say further this show is a feel good show with every emotion.
So Min - FL also did a very good job as she is a wonderful actress.
The show sets a strong foundation by delving into the complicated relationship between Seung-hyo and Seok-ryu, childhood acquaintances with a shared history that's equal parts endearing and cringe-worthy. The episode does a great job balancing comedy with deeper themes. The slapstick humour, especially during the chaotic family scenes, is well-executed and keeps the tone light-hearted.
Must Watch show !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's suitable for working people. This series touched my heart. The pressure at work, family, close friends, and lovers, finding one's own dreams, going back to being a teenager, the age of dreams and starting everything. The plot is very good.
Including the relationship between the 2 main characters, Seung Hyo and Seok Ryu, they made me believe that they are close friends who are like a family. Bickering, sympathy, caring and protecting each other, it slowly seeps into their hearts. They slowly fall in love and change with age. I love their acting. It looks natural, believable, and has incredible chemistry.
Jung So Min is the best actress. She has great acting skills in all aspects. She made me laugh and cry with her. She conveys emotions well through her facial expressions and eyes. She deserves an award.
