Perfect.

I've watched this series three times and have always been fully invested in the story. It always feels like I'm starting it afresh and I always learn something new.
It has just the right mixture of comedy and reality. At times I wondered if the writer had put in their own story into this drama. The product placement was often hilarious and clever.

Story: The three women make a fantastic trio. The story often goes in a direction which I don't expect. Usually, that would disappoint me, but it felt just right in this series.
For example, despite rooting for Jae Hoon and Han Joo, I wasn't saddened by the fact that they didn't end up together.
I especially liked how each character had a personality with depth. In Jin Joo and Hwan Dong's relationship, they showed the flaws of both sides while not making anyone seem like a villain. The same goes for Jae Hoon and his girlfriend. In Jae Hoon's relationship, although his girlfriend was fully painted as the wrong one throughout the story, the last episode made the viewers as well as Jae Hoon realize that a relationship has two people.
The story wrapped up in a wonderful way without seeming awkward or rushed.

Cast: Each actor completely suited their character. I loved how they added easter eggs, e.g Ahn Jae Hong in reply 1988.

Music: Wonderful. It suited the vibe of the series perfectly.

Rewatch value: I've rewatched this three times, so take of that as you will. It isn't fully packed with action or any big plot twists so I always find myself forgetting parts of this story and then being surprised when something happens in this series.

Overall: Might not be for everyone, but I loved it. The humor wasn't obnoxious or overbearing so I would definitely recommend this to people who like realistic yet fun stories.

Oddly Enjoyable.

A really unique series. Initially watched it for Ahn Jae Hong and was pleasantly surprised to see that it was created by the creators of "Be Melodramatic". Despite that, the two series are worlds apart.

Story: Unpredictable. Can't call it a waste of time since you don't really get anything of meaning out of most other dramas either. It's perfect to watch when you just want to have a laugh.
I was disappointed in myself when I cried during this series but the writer should definitely be applauded for being able to make a series like this be emotional.
I loved the montage of them talking about "Be Melodramatic" and going as far as to use the OSTs.
The scene of Baek Joong applying anti-septic was hilarious!

Cast: The cast definitely surprised me since most of these actors are well-known and also really good actors. A number of the actors had acted in "Be Melodramatic" as well. Each actor suited the character they were playing.

Music: Pretty good. Some of the songs are in my playlist. (Specifically the theme songs of Be Melodramatic. If it isn't obvious, I really liked that drama.)

Rewatch Value: Not that high.

Overall: Not everyone is gonna like this series, but I found this hilarious. It's different. As someone else said, this could be described as "Peak Comedy".
