The whole concept I think is very cool, I really enjoyed watching the work life of book publishers, the work that each department do, and their struggles as employees but also as different individuals with their own personal matter, and the development of each character is very nice to see. The office environment looks very cute and cool and lowkey made me feel like I wish I was there.

I watched the show because of Wi Hajoon, so I think it's pretty obvious and super biased when I say my favorite character is Ji Seojun. Before I watched it I've only seen fanmade edits and pictures, and thought that his character would be nice and sweet, which he is! But I didn't eexpect his character to go a lot deeper than that, but I absolutely love it. I can always enjoy some lowkey mysterious characters, and when his secret was revealed ngl I cried. I do think his story is showed enough for a second lead, but I kinda had wished there was a little bit more to show... Other than him, I unexpectedly actually really like Song Haerin. When she first appeared I thought she would be more on the annoying side, but thankfully she's not, and became my second favorite. She was actually really adorable and sometimes I can relate to her character...

Honestly... adding to that, not just Seojun and Haerin as individual characters, I also really like seeing them as a couple (idk if i can say that bc... they technically haven't? but anyway) I really like their chemistry. From the way they meet, the way they bonded with work, their little problem, their reconciliation... I really loved seeing them and lowkey wished they would have more scenes together, and tbh even wished that they would at least end up dating a few episodes before the drama ends.. I honestly like Seojun and Haerin (both individually and as a "couple") than Eunho and Dani. Though I do think Eunho and Dani are adorable too, I can't help but feel a little bored. To me it's just the usual childhood best friends to lovers trope. When they weren't dating their bickering, Eunho's jealousy, Dani's interactions with Seojun were really enjoyable to watch, but I guess starting around the middle of the drama? When Eunho confessed and Dani kept thinking about it... Ever since that I skipped a little of their moments, and when they date or have romantic scenes I kept skipping for some reason? It just felt... a little boring for me. But that's probably just me... I generally don't really watch romance unless my favorite actor is there... Was it because I was biased? Who knows really...

Other than that, it's pretty good overall. The songs were nice, though sadly weren't really memorable for me, I don't remember any of them...
