Non-complicated love story. Nicely written plot. Right amount of comedy.

Ok so I binged this drama too fast. Also the fact being that it had only 10 episodes it ended quite quickly. All the characters fit quite nicely in the plot. I just loved the quirky friendship among the ladies. They were such good friends and each had something unique to their character. Like Yeseul being the youngest and the most naive in case of the men that she dates. For which she had been through too many relationships in such little time. For a job she probably works as pest controller(?) which is kinda not a usual job a female lead shown in kdramas does for a living. Despite doing such a job she does always look good. On the other side, the other bestie owns a cafe where she serves some really out-of-the-world drinks. For ex. spinach curry smoothie and the visuals of the drink is also very out-of-the-world. Gosh, i did creep out watching her serving those drinks. But then the customers reactions and her own poker face when serving them really cracked me up. And then the main female lead is also just so unique. Song Ha yoon is such a natural. She always has great chemistry with her male co-actors. No matter who she is paired with, she always amazes me with her charm. Also she is really good at acting drunk and she does it so cutely. The ex was pathetic for doing all that he did but I liked that he admitted his mistakes eventually and badly wanted to patch up. Although I would not approve of her taking him back but his character development did show that he did really love Ji Sung. Although they showed his arc as mere comedy but he did love her in reality. I liked that he didnt just plain harassed her after the break up or just sweep her under the rug like she meant nothing to him and move on to some other gal. Now the male lead, Lee Jun young really played this character very well. At times Gook hee was plain cold but he really is a cinnamon roll that gets emotional really quick. His voice tone is soo sweet. I just loved hearing him speak. I liked his character arc. He was sympathetic and gentle. Although he didnt know how to chase the girl in the beginning. He did try to hold onto the girl when she tried to reach him. I did feel frustrated when he didnt believe in Ji sung after the secret cam being sent to him. I felt like he should have given her a chance to explain when she had always been with through the highs and lows. But then the break up didnt prolong too much so that makes up for it.
Overall, I enjoyed this though I wanted it go on further but they wrapped it well in 10 episodes. Also it made me wonder how much we are depended on our phones. And how much of our personal details lies in this mere device. Is it really safe to be this depended on smartphones? When anyone can acquire all the private info just through peeping through your phone. Or if really such a tech was available could people's privacy ever be private?!
But it also showed the pros of a smartphone of how easier it has made our lives in the form of finding routes and translating to many more.
So I came back to this conclusion that it depends on how much you share yourself to these tech devices. How much of your personal life do you want to make public. It all depends on YOU.
