I didn’t expect them to get the animals so well portrayed! Maybe even too well. Choco and Milk were extremely well thought through characters, and I think both actors did amazingly. They came across as a dog and a cat, the typical behaviors and all! Choco was sweet, always behind Jung Woo, very affectionate, happy just to be getting some attention. Milk had a typical black cat energy that I really enjoyed. The glares, not wanting to be touched most of the time, causing mischief, getting passive aggressive when jealous. The styling of the two was on point too! The mostly black looks for Milk and mostly white for Choco fit nicely with their past animal selves.

When I say they might have portrayed the animals too well, I mean that it made it hard to see them as humans. Especially Choco, who I think was treated as a dog more than Milk was treated as a cat. That made it really hard for me to see him getting involved in a relationship with Jung Woo. It felt strange and it was not my favorite thing. It was easier to swallow the second couple, especially as the uncle isn’t familiar with the true story behind who Milk and Choco are. Plus, he wasn’t treating Milk as a cat. I liked their banter and how uncle liked pushing Milk’s buttons.

At times the episodes felt like sporadically shown parts of their lives with very little connections from one to the other. Not with all of them, but there have been a few where I had to check that I haven’t skipped any episodes with how different things were. Or how unrelated it all was. There was also quite some time spent on things that weren’t really relevant or didn’t really have to be included. As well as some plot holes.

I have mixed feelings about the ending. It’s what I kind of expected to happen, just maybe in a different version. But I would have preferred it if it had stayed the way it was at the end of episode 10. I found that a more fitting ending.

It was a cute watch, but that was also mostly it for me.
