Frisqa Feb 23 2026 10:10 am Love this drama ^_^. not too dramatic. Even there was an age gap, they looked good together and the brother is soo funny. Recommend to watch this.

Love the cast even when the two staff are super nosy.

VL Aug 28 2025 11:17 pm I keep seeing shadows of Shin Min Ah in the female lead. Especially from her gaze.

Yina Jun 06 2025 1:19 am I watched ep 1 and drop it haha i don't like the female lead .

ellie Mar 09 2025 6:54 am This drama shouldn't have included a tragic backstory if they were going to execute it poorly, especially if Shin Hyunbeen's acting can't compensate for the haphazard script. It was also weird to see Moon Sangmin play a 'Director' role when his jaw isn't even defined yet ㅠㅠ I liked him in Under The Queen's Umbrella and the role suited him then, but for rom-coms... I think he should wait it out and practice some more.

Still, this drama gave enjoyable five minute parts for the second leads (and I wish they gave Sojin and Yoon Park more screentime than dedicate it to office gossips between the same two somewhat annoying and disrespectful characters every time) which is why I got through it. To be honest, if anyone's looking for a decent romcom, I can't even recommend this unless somebody cuts up Lee Mijin's and Seo Siwon's parts only. That's all.

DramaFan Nov 26 2024 6:17 pm I don’t understand the low rating for this series. It was Very good.

Angie Oct 11 2024 1:28 pm OMG so boring and stupid. I am usually up for cute girls (thin, clean) but this is just fluff. Also too much preaching IMO. Sorry

Popi Oct 09 2024 9:27 am Im at episode 5, and i dropped it. I hated her coworkers super annoying and not funny at all. I just can’t finish the whole episode because the FL and ML its not giving. But i love the sec lead couplee!!

m Oct 01 2024 5:29 am Finished it and enjoyed.. but genuinely can't stop thinking about the age differences or how the actor playing as the younger brother is older than the ML irl.

Fullheart5 Sep 30 2024 12:08 pm Thought about watching this drama, but I still have a problem with big age differences, FL is fourteen years older than ML, I just have a hard time with the idea that it is possible she could be his mother.

Paisiy Sep 29 2024 5:47 am Spoiler alert! I don't believe it! He's handsome, and a chaebol, and not a single beauty is chasing him? He was dumped without any explanation, and there's not a drop of anger in him?! She's a gray mouse, but two stunning guys are courting her, despite all her antics?! Do you believe it? Many have written here that the main couple has no chemistry. But it's not the actors' fault, but the scriptwriter's, who was so fixated on her twist of accepting money and breaking up that she made FL a cold dried fish. Please show me where in the entire drama FL showed her love for ML! What did she do to deserve a white dress and a ring at the end of the drama? I was so annoyed by all this that I almost abandoned this drama in the middle!

Russell Sep 28 2024 10:19 am If someone doesn't like this excellent female lead then they have no business watching ANY Korean dramas. They're above their intellect.

tsene Sep 28 2024 2:30 am because of female lead i dont even start a drama

Jillibean Sep 27 2024 2:51 pm I enjoyed it, it was a sweet drama. Not everything has to be Shakespeare, lol. I've loved the lead actress since 2014's Mimi and she was awesome in the more recent Tell Me That You Love Me as well. I like how the mother character mellowed too. Check it out and Enjoy.

I am Sep 25 2024 11:40 pm I love this drama so much. Sang min so perfectly handsome. He have this aura like Cha Eun woo. Hoping for more drama lead role for him. I also feel the chemistry of the brother and his wife. They are so adorably cute

Kim Sep 23 2024 7:35 am TBH, I love the story about the big brother & his wife more than the main leads.

magnolia Sep 20 2024 10:43 am after Delightfully Deceitful, Sojin and Yoon Park once again shows that they have excellent chemistry!!! They're the reason why i still watch this drama

Second Lead For The Win!!! Sep 18 2024 9:10 am Thank goodness it is 10 episodes because it is getting boring and dull with her nonsense moping. I mean, it isn't the actress' fault the writing sucks for her character. some dramas are 10 episodes and some are 54 and more and this drama should have ended at 8 episodes. The only saving factor is the second leads. My goodness they are good and they are the only ones making me come back. As soon as the episodes are released, I fastforward to see their parts first before going back and slowly fastforwarding the episode.

mitchin Sep 16 2024 3:55 pm Its crazy how i Love the cast!!! TT Juwon's family i mean the second couple siwon and mijin are sooooo cute>< I love this kdrama ??

Lea Sep 16 2024 5:39 am Love the 2nd lead couple, they're so cute! Love the 1st leads too & the storyline but the 2nd lead couple is just too cute!

Growing pain Sep 16 2024 12:56 am Boyfriend by Yeonjun is soooo good. it's such a perfect song! ❤️

xenon Sep 15 2024 11:16 pm I can't believe I watched this late! I love this drama so much T^T

Kdramafan Sep 14 2024 9:52 am Totally enjoyed and love this drama. The ost is also very nice. Sat full of new kdramas but this will always be my first one to watch.

Fairone Sep 12 2024 9:19 am All those people saying it’s cringe . What exactly is cringe? I love this drama so far

Taddd Sep 12 2024 6:14 am The age gap really obvious. Cringed.

Hi Sep 10 2024 9:23 pm Sojin and Yoon park carrier this drama on their back. They have great chemistry. The ML's acting is lacking a lot, I hope he improves because he has so much potential

Nimi Sep 10 2024 12:17 am This is cringy,I know how they break up and still love each other but writernim please,if my ex boyfriend follows me like this even if I still love him I’ll lose interest. He is too clingy and suffocating,he should let the poor girl rest abeg. She can’t even laugh with another guy…phewww Only watching this for “fade in blue and boyfriend” ost

Zzzzzz Sep 09 2024 7:05 am Weeee this drama is not attractive

Anna Sep 09 2024 4:36 am After under the queens umbrella and wedding impossible am a now a new fan Of Moon Sang Min. Looking forward to more projects!

2nd lead couple Sep 09 2024 1:05 am I really like the 1st lead couple here but I seldom watch love triangles. Of course they wrote the artist's backstory so you can understand where he's coming from but I still don't like it. I couldn't finish My Beloved Summer coz I feel sad for the 2nd male love triangle lead.

Anyways, the 2nd lead story suddenly becomes interesting so I probably won't drop it yet, hope their story develops well & they have good enough screentime for a 2nd lead couple

Blue Spring Sep 05 2024 1:18 pm I watched because of OST sung by Yeonjun of TXT, but surprisingly I enjoyed the drama. This is not your usual rich boy poor girl, or romance with an older woman, this drama is funny, touching and entertaining.

Maria Errica M. Lim Sep 02 2024 5:02 am I’ve watched too many dramas and a lot of office romance stories and I just love the stories, I rarely find dramas that doesn’t leave a “butterfly in the stomach” feels, this one is included in my list of no chemistry of first leads at all. Despite the visuals of the male lead it lacks that tickle that I usually find even in those “noona” stories, older FL rom coms are worth binge watching but this one, I think I am gonna drop. I like the ML on his other portrayals such as in Under the Queen’s Umbrella and the one where he played as a soon to be brother in law of the bride, and I love him on those plays. What I find worth watching on this drama are the 2nd leads, Yoon Park and Sojin, they’ve got good chemistry and I look forward to watch them more.

David Aug 31 2024 6:39 am I think I am going to like this. I am one who buys the blu-ray but I also watch on streaming first. I like the actors and actresses from their past drama. I also love age difference stories (and anything that is not the usual mainstream rules story) and love these beautiful people, not western tattoos and ink and cellulite and bla bla bla just good looking people.. smash in the face of the mainstream rules

yellow_mellow Aug 30 2024 5:34 am I think this drama would have been better with better casting. The actors and actresses are really good, and I've seen them for their past dramas and they were really able to pull it off. However, for this drama, the cast and the characters are just a bit off. It doesn't match hence I can't feel the chemistry. The male lead has such a baby face that I can't feel the vibe of his rizz.

Nadia Aug 28 2024 9:47 pm what a boring drama

Alma Aug 28 2024 7:32 pm Im a huge fan of Moon Sang Min from the "Under the Queen's Umbrella" his really an excellent actor but after that all his character and choice of drama now is so boring. I feel that its not fit on him and cannot showcase his good acting.

Kdramawatcher Aug 26 2024 7:27 pm Yoon Park and Soojin reunited as couple again hahahaha

Aonyma Aug 26 2024 3:21 am I just laughed at the synopsis and it was a "what if" story that goes opposite the typical romantic lines. I mean, in usual and serious romantic stories, a woman who gets an offer to get paid to break up with her lover will refuse. And things will go dramatic and dragging along the way. But this...what if the woman accepts the money outright. I'd put this in my watch list. I like romance stories who doesn't follow the cliche story lines. I'd put this on my list.

Nelly Aug 26 2024 12:54 am How in the world are they gonna break up.

villageidiot Aug 25 2024 12:02 am my 98 years old nana told me that a couple must come from the same age group. Those with 6 years age gap is nothing less than an abomination. i thought only gramma's generation said such things. Lots of gramma here.

Anas Aug 24 2024 12:06 pm I previously have issue with the age gap and worry how both MLs would pull the characters especially since I am big fan of Shin Hyun Been since Jang Gyeoul era. However, after watching the first episode, I dont think I should let my worry stop me from watching. Sangmin portraying Juwon with mature character and you dont really feel such big age gap. Imho, they both nail the characters well and I'm definitely looking forward to watch next episodes

ew Aug 24 2024 11:24 am the age gap no joke

Tfenaau Aug 23 2024 5:47 pm I dont mind the age gap…buuuut she just looks way older and he still has a young baby face like a teenager in high school. I see him more as being the baby brother and she’s the noona lol

Blooms Aug 20 2024 2:19 am Yoon Bak and So Jin reunited again looool

Sameer Aug 09 2024 2:49 pm Bruhh! The plot is so outdated.

Maria Aug 01 2024 11:46 pm Love you Moon Sang Min,Waiting for your drama

Que Jun 24 2024 10:06 am If lives give you money just take them and leave lmao. The plot seems entertaining, hopefully it will deliver well. Find kinda funny that Shin Hyun Bin’s previous project was with a 13 years older ML, and here’s she is 14 years older. Don’t think its a problem tho, just hope it won’t be another noona romance, where age gap is stressed like in some others kdramas i couldn’t care to finish

Tanvj May 03 2024 2:18 pm Moon sangmin being new lee min ho? Picking rich characters??

Nan Mar 31 2024 6:17 am I don't mind age gap is the plot justifies it... But a chaebol, again? Really? That's soooo boring.

Kdramawatcher Mar 28 2024 3:10 pm 14 years age gap? Wowwwww
