I'm warming up to the story and the chemistry of the characters

This is definitely a show that makes me on edge. I am not sure if it's going to end up being a good drama or a trash fire, but so far I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt and continuing to watch. So far there is some good and some bad, but I think the potential is pretty huge. The cons of the show have already been detailed by a lot of viewers: the male lead is pushy, meddling, over-protective and gets into the female lead's personal space without consent. The first two episodes especially I felt a little out of touch with what was going through the male lead's head. Also, just because he's not that much worse than a lot of other male lead's doesn't mean it's okay, but I think a lot of the reason that viewers had issues with his behaviours was because it's happening early on in the show. We're used to this kind of behaviour around the episode 8-9 mark. Not right off the bat! However, I do feel like the show really mellows out in episodes 3 and 4. The female lead tells the male lead to back off and get out of her business and for all intents and purposes he does. He apologizes for being out of line and asks her permission to help her out when her ex-boyfriend is getting aggressive. It's her that makes the move to grab her hand. At this point I'm willing to see where things go because there seems to be an improvement in the vibe and energy between the two of them. The pros are that it's fast-paced, with most of the drama being laid out in the open right off the bat, it's gorgeous to look at with great cinematography, costumes and makeup, and there's great chemistry between the leads. I like the complexity of the second male lead and I really enjoy the other romance subplot with the CEO and the ML's sister. Excited to see what kind of shenanigans they get up to. All in all, I'm still looking forward to more episodes. If it stays the quality of episodes 3 & 4 for a couple more episodes, we might be out of the woods. But it could still take a turn for the worse.
