Simple Office Romance
**Brief Synopsis**
B (Employee): Ki Tae
T (Employee): Lee Wan
- Beginning: B and T are best friends during Highschool and after T sort of dodged when B tried to kiss him after graduation, their relationship ended with B thinking T has rejected him and totally dissapearing from T's life. The story starts 7 years later when B applies at the company that T works at and is forced to cooperate. At the beginning, B is extremely unconfortable around T while the latter tries his best to approach him, something B doesn't seem to understand and thinks T is messing with him.
- Middle: Despite all his reservations, they still start spending more time together.
- End: T finally confesses his love to B and what really happened in the past is revealed. As it turned out T has been looking for B for the last 7 years and was about to give up when B appeared. T is very afraid that B will dissapear on him again. This revelation is rather ironic because B ran away thinking that T has rejected him when the one who really suffered from this incident isn't B but T. They finally talk it out and B promises to stay. The story ends with them happily together.
**My Opinion**
WHAT I LIKED ABOUT IT:
- The actors playing B and T. Their chemistry was amazing and their interactions were cute and sweet. They also do a great job in portraying the affection between the characters.
- I really like the foreplay/flirting. B's reactions are very cute as well.
- The characters are very likeable despite each having their own flaws.
- The writing is okay. The story flows well despite the plot being very weak as all the attention is put on the development of their relationship.
- I liked the relatively lack of angst (most of the angst comes from the characters overactive imagination).
WHAT I DIDN’T LIKE ABOUT IT:
- Plot as a whole is ok but there aren’t any plot twists or memorable moments. It is however a very cliche and predictable plot with little conflict.
- Use of lack of communication and misconceptions as source of angst is overdone. A lot of issues would have been resolved if B and T just talked to each other.
- The writing is pretty simple and the other characters seem to only exist for the sake of getting B and T together rather then being their own person.
**Conclusion**
An OK watch but probably won’t be revisiting.
