This actually has a really good premise, even with all the cliches — disapproving parent, generational secrets, amnesia, cohabitation, contract marriage, etc. I felt like it actually started out really endearing, especially because the main male lead wasn't the typical cold and abrasive character, but was rather playful, fun, and nice to people who deserved it. I also liked the second female lead was nice and reasonable.

As the drama went on, however, it started to feel like we were reliving the same plot over and over the characters either became static or got worse. The entire drama was driven by the disapproving parent and even the music and the drama sub-plots seemed to take a backseat. The potential generational secrets fizzled into nothing, and both second leads just became irrelevant and horrible. I also just could not stand the second lead in this, so the fact that the love triangle was dragged on for so long (and mainly by external factors) was really annoying.

Our two main leads also just seemed to lose their identities, especially the FL who started off so strong — optimistic, yet able to stand up for herself and be mature. All that went away when the parental figures started to take up more screentime, and any plot elements just fell flat.
