Classic Rom-com style

This was a nice, old-fashioned Korean rom-com – no vengeance, no torture, no zombies, just two people trying to live their best lives and almost accidentally falling in love. Of course, you have to have either the evil mother, mother-in-law, or evil stepsister, and we had an supremely evil sister. There were two side romances, one featuring an rotten boss who needs a come-uppance, and the other a lazy husband who needs a reality check. Ahn Se Na lent comic relief very nicely.

And because this is a classic style, it all ends very satisfactorily, and it’s just feeling good at the end. Absolutely don’t turn off the last episode too soon – you don’t want to miss the Epilogue, which is a delightful gender reversal of one of the most tired rom-com tropes. Probably lovely to binge watch on a rainy day, or when it’s just too hot to do anything else.
