Short, sweet and easy to watch. All the characters are likable here and so are the relationships. The male lead Tae Moo and female lead Ha Ri have this adorable chemistry and I like how both of them are not just foodies but also work in the food industry...the parts where they would come up with fusion recipes for Korean cuisine, from the brainstorming to the food tasting, were pretty entertaining. The sismance between Ha Ri and her best friend Young Seon, the second female lead, was also another highlight- they had a great friendship and a lot of hilarious* scenes together.

It’s funny how this show manages to be self-aware and poke fun at itself. The grandpa character actually watches a drama called Be Brave Shin Gumi which is filled with all these rom-com/kdrama cliches and tropes, and then later on a lot of the events in that drama would happen to the characters outside* the show…only that they would handle themselves a lot better than expected.

The characters and relationships aren’t perfect but they are very communicative and understanding of each other. Ha Ri starts off with a false identity in the beginning and Tae Moo is naturally very upset when he finds out, but she apologizes to him without any hesitation. Tae Moo unreasonably asks his assistant Seung Hoon (the second male lead) to go an a blind date when the latter is already dating Young Seon…but when realizing his mistake, Tae Moo not only apologizes to Seung Hoon, but to the both of them.

The only things I didn’t like were how the grandpa became antagonistic towards the main couple when he found out about them, because I was expecting him to go against the stereotype (given how he criticized Be Brave Shin Gumi!) but he disappointingly didn’t - at least, not until the very end. The second male lead Seung Hoon was also a bit weak willed and inconsistent, although his relationship with Young Seon works out later. A third party comes in between them in some of the episodes but refreshingly, she also turns out to be a likable and supportive character.
