SIMPLY NICE AND FLUFFY DRAMA WITH A SPRINKLE OF SLICE OF LIFE

This is a nice realistic and a bit fluffy drama with a bit serious life issue of psychologically sick and manipulative exes thrown in to deepen the lot.

It is about two adults always meeting each other coincidentally at a crucial time in their life and making new bond over dinner as strangers, they enjoyed dinners despite their differences in taste and preferences without placing unnecessary burdens on each other so they gradually began to open up and told each other about their past hurts and unknowingly forming a deep bond and slowly began to heal each other, but their past relationship partners keeps dragging them back and trying to put a wedge in their new found love for each other with their obsessive and manipulative behaviors.

The drama built up slowly but became addictive for me and i enjoyed the simple story, the male carried the weight of the acting and portying of emotions in this drama but i didnt like the acting of the female lead as it wasnt so good for lead standard plus she was so tense and uncomfortable with skinship and acted liked she was being attacked in kiss scenes, i thought she was in her early 20s, was shocked she was a 35 year old woman, plus she had been in previous relationships in the drama, the second female lead has the same annoying character she took in Cinderella and 4 knights, it felt like a continuation of her selfish behavior there.

The drama ended nicely and happily and there was a bit of redemption for the antagonists.
