I didn't expect to enjoy this series as much as I did. I laughed so much and although parts were super silly or over the top; it was done in a way to make it hilarious and enjoyable to watch....until Episode 16! I hope the writer (who may write other KDramas) thinks about how an ending wraps things up nicely or is a let down. After all the main characters went thru to finally come together-the ending was a let down. I won't go into spoilers other than saying things were wrapping up beautifully until you took another turn to throw in more drama and not good drama! This is a pattern I see in some KDramas. The need to add so many plot twists is not appealing. Every characters story was good but it went downhill halfway thru Episode 16. Booo!

I love this drama so much. The drama has all the features you may be looking for a fresh, light-hearted drama, a heart-warming story, a slight pinch of mystery, and the perfect balance of Rom-Com theme. The drama has been entertaining, informative and keeping the pace of the storyline perfect.

It focuses not only on the main leads but also on the stories of the supporting casts. It shows the struggle of each character, how they have been going through because of housing issues.

I laughed, I cried and learned valuable life's lessons like money saving tips, cost cutting measures, information about real estate, etc.

I highly recommend this drama to the young generation for them to realize the importance of money savings at an early stage of life and even to the oldies in preparation of their retirement period.

JungSomin's versatility is superb as there is a complexity of emotions here. Her eyes and facial expressions speak more than words. The best acting is not just in crying but also in other emotions a person felt like when you are angry, surprised, frightened, happy, sad, etc.

JungSoMin is truly the rom-com queen...

Korean Drama "Monthly Magazine Home" is a slice of life drama with a fun couple as the main focus.

The drama offers enough cute moments, like the colourful tips on how to save money in order to buy a house. The main couple was, in addition, the biggest provider of these moments as well, especially the male lead, who was frustrating at times, but funny and enjoyable overall. The romance was also pretty sweet, but the progress was messy and close to a slow burn. The love triangle was not well handled either. Still, the side characters were interesting enough to keep things aloof and entertaining when the romance was failing to live up to its potentials.

However, what makes this drama not as good as it should have been, even though it checked all the boxes of an enemies to lovers trop, is that it is forgettable, as it didn't offer anything special, and the ending was bad. The latter was open, confused things for no real reason and it was just ridiculous. Plus, looking back, the drama didn't really leave any impression, nor had anything to say. It was just an office rom com with no sufficient plot.

So, overall, 6 out of 10.

If you want to rest after a hard workday, you will be here. That nice drama brings joy despite some sad moments which be bound to in any tales. I do like this topic of to arrange own home by own way. The creators could tell about people their wish to have a home where the loving persons being together.

One of my most fav drama for this year. Not only good acting and script but it also has so many beautiful quotes/lines that warmed my heart and funny scenes to brighten my days. Completed with great OST. All songs in this drama took part in perfect scenes and I love all of them. I also learned so much from this series like how to saving money and start thinking more serious about future. Super recommended!
