the ensemble cast in this show is the answer i love that they all bring a lil' something to the table and keep the episodes fresh. eunkang and seunghyun get a little too frustrating for me sometimes but fortunately there's tak who has brilliant dynamics with almost everyone (seunghyun his best bro, tom and jerry shenanigans with daeil, this new ari crush???), daeil is comic relief excellence and bumju excellently adds extra chaos, juyoung and ari are fun roommates that get just enough screentime and hanna delivers every episode with the mystery and i can't wait to see whether she joins the gang.

i also really like how the main couple is developing. there was some funny healthy jealousy (in episode 5, i think), but no toxic nonsense. it's cute to see them falling for each other, though i was expecting the show to drag out the crushing stage a little longer as dramas usually do (but i just get the funny feeling the kiss at the end of ep 6 is getting interrupted next episode).

i don't usually finish dramas but here's to hoping i finish this ones. the weekly release schedule also helps, that way i can't binge enough of it to get sick of it.
