Plot:
It is a romantic comedy series featuring two sisters who have differing looks
and personality. Gong Mi is a lawyer with a pretty face while Gong Shim is a
warm hearted younger sister who always put others first before herself. The
story becomes more interesting with the addition of two handsome men in their
lives who came from opposing backgrounds. Ahn Dan Tae is a lawyer who takes part time
jobs and but will be lodging at the rooftop owned by Gong Shim while Joon Soo
is from a wealthy family and is the Director of their family business.

It
was a very catchy episode one for me so I jumped into the series as soon as I
watched it. There is this quality in the character of Gong Shim that makes it
feel believable. She’s a very adorable and kind character that you just can’t help
but fall in love with. There is that kind of magic in her that makes her very
effective for the role. I am truly pleased by Min Ah’s (from the idol group
Girls’ Day) portrayal and it feels like she was just being herself with no
pretentions. She was able to convey that kind of character which added spice on
the story. Next is Nam Gong Min who’s embodied the character of Ahn Dan Tae.
The last and only project I’ve seen from is Sensory
Couple and he didn’t leave a good impression on me basically because he was
a villain but I still remained hopeful for him in this one because it is a
rom-com series and I just crossed my fingers that he wouldn’t fail me. Guess
what? He delivered and he really has the team up with Min Ah that will crack
you up. So I am gushing over their cuteness when they are together. I think
their characters are something that could light up a very gloomy day, so that
anchored my interest in this series.
At
the moment, they have only finished up until episode 14 and I can’t wait for
the next episode because the ending was a cliff-hanger. I wonder what would
happen next and of course I wouldn’t spoil it to you. But to give a glimpse on
what the characters are about, I will have to write about her Director Joon Soo
and Gong Shim’s Family. I think that the Director is a cute guy and I have a
second male lead syndrome next to the OTP syndrome. Seriously the guy is so
nice and acting naive sometimes but you just can’t help but admire that kind of
personality because not everyone who grows up from a wealthy home know how to befriend
people like how he did with Dan Tae and Gong Shim. He’s a guy that no matter
what happens, you can’t possibly hate because he’s a momma’s boy and he raised
himself to be responsible. The friendship he’s made with the two of them is
really admirable and I wish that I have a guy friend like him. I’m sure all
girls would line up to get one but on the other hand, it makes me feel how lucky
Gong Shim is because he’s a sweetheart and yet she also has Dan Tae. Oh my the
love line is not as intense as other Kdramas are but it is one thing that I
like about the series which is a lighthearted kind and they focused more on
family, friends and character building.
Gong
Shim’s family especially her sister Gong Mi was annoying at first and I
witnessed how she felt terribly down whenever they choose her sister over her.
But I guess, it was only an impression at first because I also believe that the
sister is not as terrible as what she’s done but simply, a lawyer who wants to
get a better career which is a tougher job than the job itself because of too
much competition around. Then of course, her mom and dad are supposed to favor
her for being the breadwinner but they also have shown consideration to Gong
Shim the past few episodes in their own way that they admit could have handled
better if they were able to give her proper education like her sister.
Overall,
the series is a success to me so far. The comedy is on point and not boring.
The acting is also commendable and the characters are being put together. I
hope they keep up with this kind of pace and till the end. Hwaiting, Gong Shim!
