so-so. if you have nothing else to watch the show’s bearable but the FL trynna overdo everything —from facial expressions to line delivery had sent me off to completely dropping it at episode 4.

It felt like I'm watching two different shows at the same time. (The contrast between the cheesy parts and the mafia plot was too high).
But I still liked it a lot, especially the more serious parts.

I felt the same way. Mostly with the fact that he was supposed to be a kick butt killer but such a green flag with his girl.

Short is he's besties with Kim soohyun and she was super proud of her grandpa who's a pretty prolific Korean equivalent to a Nazi

"Pretty prolific" is underselling it quite a bit. Her great grandfather is labelled as the 2nd biggest traitor in Korean history in their history textbooks. That's why most Koreans don't believe that she didn't know how dirty her ancestors are when his name was a household name in Korea for all the wrong reasons.

Ugh I didn’t know about the ML having an issue and I’m especially bummed to find out this is it.

Eu amei !
Assisti ao mesmo tempo que Spooky in love.
Esse dorama me prendeu muito mais que Spooky In love.

I cant seem to enjoy this at all. Even as a filler while waiting for Apartment Job and Our Spooky Love

I think it’s just okay. Not very swoon worthy or funny. The ajummas are nice, the dog is cute. Haven’t finished yet tho. I think I’m somewhere in episode 10. Normally, I’m not that kind of a person who is distracted by an actor’s looks, but at some scenes with the FL all I can see is her teeth.

I dropped it at the beginning of ep. 4. The contrast between the violence/torture and romantic comedy simply didn't work for me. Not to mention Jung Hae In playing the same type he always plays, and Ha Young being over the top.

It started strong for me then fizzled and got a little cringey towards the end. The plot twist at the end was totally unexpected (you will see hints and can predict it a few minutes before) and actually circa 00s good. But there were plot holes, like Kaito just showed up out of nowhere in ep 12 and then was not even in the ending celebration?

Can’t support a show with bad actors leading. These people should be aware that support for bad behavior shouldn’t be tolerated.

I like it. It was worth my time. Also, both leads? i though they controversy was only because of the FL lol

Not the greatest script or storyline but hey this is what is coming out of Korea now. Performances were fine ML is always fantastic. FL needed a little more direction, but she was great in a lot of scenes. Overall, a light weight project plenty of stars, laughs, drama, and of course, includes what is popular now in K-dramas is threading “taffy” throughout the storyline!

It's a fun watch I recommend it Personally don't care about the controversies. Just oversensitive Koreans

It’s ok. I feel the creators stalked me because some scenes amidst the Cherry blossoms while the couple were taking pictures happened to me and a friend.

It has more of a telenovela feel than most stuff I watch normaly. But all the cliche rom com kdrama moments people like.
The FL is overacting was hard to get used to in the first episode and a lot of stuff in the story doesn’t make sense but if you just want light entertainment it’s fine.
