Fluff with a bit of angst
Couple of episodes in and I had a strange feeling of déjà vu, the vibe this drama was giving was familiar. I eventually looked up the production crew and, lo and behold, the same ones who made We Best Love which, in spite of some incoherencies in the plot, is one of my favourite series! So please forgive my bias as I am indulgent here. And also, I enjoyed the ride! Though I feel like I should not have!
What I liked:
- the mechanics of love relationship
- the comedy
- the dentist, cold and serious with a beautiful smile when he wants
- the bartender& his helper
- the music (why is it always so good in taiwanese bls?)
- cinematography&post credit scenes
- plushies
- the kisses
- the boy band!
What I did not like:
- the bar owner hiding his trauma behind his happy-go-lucky attitude
- the hugs
- mental health issues solved by LOVE?!?!?
- misunderstandings and lack of communication
- the blast from the past
- the father
- last minute couples
I liked how they developed the relationship: they both were very clear about what was happening between them though their reactions were the opposite! While the bar owner prefered to lie to himself, the dentist knew exactly what he wanted from the get go! The second couple was sweet and funny! But then they went on and introduced the dentist's crush from college who created unnecessary drama (without him, the series would have been shorter!).
The actors all had quite good chemistry and they were cool with kisses! On the other hand, every time they hugged each other, it looked like they were embracing a plush toy with a strange, uncomfortable smile...very weird ! And speaking of soft toys, why is the bar owner still sleeping with them even though he's in a solid relationship, 8 months later (the obligatory but unnecessary time skip!).
The best part was music especially when they played Pechelbel's Canon on piano, my favourite piece of classical music! Cinematography was correct and the little scenes after the end credits giving the other side of the story are an extraordinary good idea!
In conclusion, this was not a bad series: light, fluffy with a bit of trauma thrown in, funny but trying to deal with serious issues(trauma, anxiety, family pressure...) that could be rewatched easily!
