A light romantic comedy to watch without overthinking !

I really hesitated before starting this one as I saw some really bad comments about the ethic of it and how it was boring at the end blablabla. I've finaly started watching it because of a MV I saw on Youtube displaying the amazing chemistry between the leads and thanks to some positive reviews here and I am glad I did !

I am gonna start with the story/writing : Prosopagnosia is quite popular lately in dramas and director/secretary stories are around for quite a long time so I would not say it is particulary original. There is a lot of plot holes/scenes that are completely wtf (like how come he cannot reconize his voice/hair) that I think bothered a lot of us watching . But once you stop asking yourself all those questions that clearly won't have an answer you can sure enjoy it and all the cute and funny moments that the drama has to offer. There is a little bit of "mystery" with a police investigation all along that managed to keep me engaged in the story and I think we had all the answers at the end and that is was quite "realistic" nothing too dramatical. As for the lying part, it's the same, do not overthink, it didn't bother me more than that as the intentions where not bad at all imo.

Acting/cast : Its 4 leads and their chemistry is clearly for me the strength of this drama.
The leads chemistry is really something but I think Kim Young Kwang is the type of actor that can make you believe he is in love with any female lead (you know what kind of actor I am talking about) their kiss scene where really believable and a special mention to the hand washing sccene :)
I knew Kim Young Kwang from its support roles in a lot of dramas and in white christhmas where I discovered him. He his really charismatic and I didn't managed to hate him, even in the beginning where he was suppose to act like a "cold" boss. His role was not cliché at all and he was more on the "nice male lead" side. Of course the looks are helping :p. Really liked his acting and I can't wait to see him in an other lead role.
It was my first time seeing Jin Ki Joo on screen. She was cute even tho sometimes annoying in the last episodes. Her loyalty to her boss & colleagues made me like her even when I found her annoying
A special SHOUT OUT to Veronica Park "speaking". My favorite character after the male lead. She was sooo funny and I would re watch some scenes for sure. She reminded me a lot of Shong Song Yi from my love from the stars. Her storyline with Gi Dae Ju was cute and I liked her friendship with the female lead.
I really enjoyed the last episode and the last scene, and didn't feel like it was rushed. I would even watch it if they give us a second season !

Overall a cute drama, very funny and it's exactly what I needed. If you can switch your brain off and just enjoy good chemistry and funny scenes then watch it !!!
