Personal opinion

Now, I found this K-drama entertaining, but not one I'd watch a second time. Or perhaps it was because I expected more from the ending; I felt it lacked a conclusion. That's just my opinion; others might have found the ending better. In any case, something I liked, and which is common, is its exploration of the quarter-life crisis, where you question whether you're on the right path, whether it's wrong to start over, whether it's too late for everything, and all those valid and reasonable questions that arise in certain aspects. At that age, you're neither young nor old, and you're at a crossroads where you feel time is running out, and you're overwhelmed by the feeling that you haven't done anything memorable or significant. It's also brave, for example, in showing that it's okay to "do nothing" and that corporate success isn't synonymous with happiness, as is the case with our protagonist.

My only criticism of the script is that the pacing can feel a bit uneven around the middle; at times it relies too heavily on classic misunderstandings that could be resolved through conversation, but it compensates with very human and realistic dialogue about the pressure to be "perfect." However, the excessive melodrama can be overwhelming at times. The incredible performances manage to create empathy with the feelings and situations each character is going through. I had seen Jung So-min in other performances, and it's truly amazing how she captures every gesture and emotion in her characterization.
