Interesting Until....
Disclaimer: My review comes from watching mango tv subs which often don't make sense and additional interpretation from visual cues.
An unrealistic but cute idea of a guy who avoids his high school crush by impersonating his twin. What follows is a very cute and funny ride until FL finds out the truth. Things I liked in this drama are, The fish metaphor, the interactions of ML and FL's moms, ML and FL's cohabitation scenes, and the escape rooms scenes.
It was really interesting to watch ML switch between two roles of cold guy and cute guy. Sometimes, his acting looks plastic but since it is miniseries and he is cute and hot, it is reasonable. I wanted more of seeing FL in dilemma with two guys because it was hilarious to see her use weird methods to investigate. Things go bad after she finds out the truth.
From ep 13, things don't make sense as there are character inconsistencies with both ML and FL. FL's tantrum-like fight scene felt overdramatic as by this time ML has already made his twin's identity his alter ego. And the 180-degree turn she does when she finds out about the ML mom and the monologue she gives was full-fledged hypocrisy. Whereas for ML, his character becomes a weird amalgamation of his twin's character and his character which makes me wonder "can he smile normally now?" "why is his hair set even in his house?"
Further to this character chaos, there were other issues, like why did ML abandon his company and was working in FL's workplace, what was with the author segment? etc
Honestly, I don't wanna exhaust myself with finding the clarifications for these because it was worth it to watch till ep 13 and forget about whatever happens later.
The production quality was good, and the acting was decent too. When ML's mom was crying, I thought she was laughing, hehe. As for rewatching, romance scenes alone suffice.

Bonus: cdrama rants
1. ML is a CEO (not surprising) of an escape room-type game company. As always I can't understand the obsession for a Ceo by media, he is not even a Ceo of a big conglomerate.
2. What was the need for ML to personally go and save his staff from fire when he could have been on-site and he is not a firefighter professional.
3. ML's connections are amazing. How come he gets an instantaneous appointment of the author or is the author his...nevermind I can't with these subs.
