MY THOUGHTS :
The plot of the story was fun and cute. It is something that possible to happen in real life and when it do, the awkwardness will be at the highest level. The series was simple , direct to the point but with appeal. The idea of having your boss as someone you used to spend a night with was scaring yet thrilling. If it happens to me, I really don't know how to react and maybe just like what Yoo-Mi did pretend that nothing happened at all.
The main actor and actress in this drama series was good making the series more appealing and funnier. The misunderstanding with Dong-Goo was funny as well.
Since the story was direct to the point and with no too much contradictions the story ended with 14 episodes (in Netflix). Ending it with 14 episodes, I think was a good choice since prolonging it may cause the viewers to be bored. I noticed that there were so many backstories/videos inserted in every episode, I think this backstory was only in Netflix to make it 14 episodes but if those backstories was removed that series can be shorted in to 12 episode only.
But overall, it was cute and refreshing. Just like what I always say sometimes it is okay to watch this kind of drama as well.
8.0 / 10.0
