Too sweet This was too sweet for me. Some K-Dramas it feels like Korea is stuck in the 1950's. Then you see The Glory and realise the country is changing. But this is one of those that tries to reinforce those old dating rituals. But where it really failed for me, is that it tries to break the taboo of depression and a goofy romantic comedy just isn't the right vehicle for it. The parts that do deal with it, were acted really well and were real tear-jerkers. But then it shifts back into goofy, sweet, over complicated dating stuff and I screamed, "Whyyyyyy?". I stuck with it till episode 10, because I wanted to see how the respective depressions of the main leads worked out, but it became too much and left it there.
