I binged this one in a weekend, and it was exactly what I needed to get my mind off other things. I loved following watching Ari and Jihoon's relationship develop. Ari was relatable in a lot of ways--and while I want to say her emotional stubbornness did get annoying at times (it did) it's also incredibly relatable, too. At times, the misunderstandings did feel a little melodramatic, though, and it was clear from the start what Ari's emotional growth trajectory would be--so the fact that it took her so long to actually get on board with that was, at times, frustrating. 

Overall, this was a fun romance to get sucked into for a weekend!
