This would have garnered at least a point more if they had not cut it short so that the ending was so abrupt. I thought Jo Bo Ah was terribly cute as Ha Ni and Ohs Joo Wan grew on me as Hyun Myung. However, Song Jae Rim and Park Ji Soo were just okay in their roles. Kind of bland. Kim Seul Gi was the standout here even as a supporting character. She is always so adorable that I am immediately drawn to any character she plays. As stated, the story would have been better if they had let it play out to the original 16 episodes because the ending was very abrupt, however, I've seen worse endings on shows that were NOT cut off early, so all in all it was not a waste of time at all. It was a bit shallow on characterization, but for 10 episodes, I can excuse it. I enjoyed a lot of the humor and I enjoyed the secondary love story just as much if not just a tad more than the main romance. This was light and easy - like a cheap romance novel that you read for a guilty pleasure. The music was nice, and I also enjoyed the little popup stuff (even though I can't read Korean - there were pictures too) It was a cute story, and while I personally probably won't rewatch it, some people might like to just because it's a breezy fast watch.
