> Guilty Pleasure !! In a season of **Melancholy** this is the light at the end of tunnel

It's the contract dating / marriage trope that fakes it till you make it once again. Cliché and exaggerated at times, but still extremely entertaining. In fact, rather than being cringe, I love how the screenwriters just absorb the clichés like a sponge and turn them into A+ grade comedy. It's a fluffy rom-com that hit all the right spots, making you laugh and swoon like there's no tomorrow. And the editing is just spot on with the fun and comic-like transitions.

We have an interesting cast here. It's a little scary how much Ahn Hyo Seop fits right into the ML's role with that side-parted hair and dashing suit. The way he slicks his hair back gives me major What's Wrong With Secretary Kim vibes (I can almost hear Park Se Joon yelling "Aura" in the background).

I like Kim Se Jeong's and Oh my goodness, she got me doubling over from laughing so hard when she called Ahn Hyo Seop an **Archaeopteryx**. And don't even get me started on who's _Samantha_ and _Rachel_. Their blind dates are absurdly hilarious and you'll wheeze in laughter before you know it.

On the other hand, Kim Min Gue is the ideal secretary sidekick for the ML. This is the bromance I was most excited about, snarky but sweet. Seol In Ah plays the free-spirited bestie for the FL ; finally play a decent character , one that you always wish for yet never have. Together, they make up one of the most iconic second couples I've ever seen. They're so scandalously cute in their own way. It's great that not only each couple has its own arch but we also have so much bromance and sismance energy here.

The grandfather is so lovable with his outrageous marriage "project", a quest to find blind dates for his workaholic grandson. It's a bit hard to believe this was also the mad king we saw in The Red Sleeve. And that makjang he's watching really hits home for me, it's like they're watching their own drama unfolding. In the makjang grandpa was on Shin Guemi's side [spoiler] but in IRL he valiantly tries to be not impressed by her and get Tae Moo breakup with her [/spoiler]

All in all, it was an extremely witty script with as many unexpected turns as there are clichés. If you're a fluffy rom-com lover and don't mind a bit of silliness to de-stress, then here's the perfect pick for you! The female lead is not a damsel in distress - she is competent, friendly, strong. The male lead is not a cold lead - he is a cute and soft potato. The father is not evil, rather funny and a bit childish. The best friend second lead deal is dealt with in a realistic manner. This is also perfect drama to accompany with [spoiler] 2521 [/spoiler] and cure the wounds inflicted last weekend; there was no perfect time to air this drama than this.

As for re-watching, I’ll definitely be re-watching ..re-watching it soon! After watching those dark and thriller dramas and the bittersweet endings, this is something I need to escape the reality !

Overall, I highly recommend it to everyone! Do give it a go, you might end up loving it.
