    The best romcom with perfect main lead

    It seemed like a simple and cliche story in Kdrama, so i had my doubt before, but i gave it a chance and so happy i did. They turned it into a very interesting and lovely drama. I got hooked from the start and fell in love with the couple, the story everything.

    The main lead actor Ha Seok Jin is so amazing in potraying Jae In. I can't imagine any other actor for this role. He nailed it with great natural acting, gave this alpha male personality but yet so charming and adorable. I am in love... His chemistry with Jeon So Min is so great that everything they did seemed natural and believable.

    The story similar to Business Proposal, but 1% of something is so much better in every aspect.

    You must watch this.

    Light hearted fun

    This is a hidden gem if you're looking for something cute and sweet. The story is not that original, but the two leads have a very fun and cute chemistry. It's fun to watch them interact on screen even if they are bickering at one another. I also like that fact this drama isn't overloaded with too much. There's family and inheritance drama, but it's not over the top. There's no unnecessary elements like a mysterious kidnapping or long lost brother or sister. This rom-com is lean and mean and it stays focused on the good stuff, which is the relationship between the ML and FL. Highly recommended.

    Review By Kamal K

    A beautiful love story that will leave you feeling good at the end not emotionally traumatized and stressed. The story is simple, beautifully written and the cast bring it to life in an amazing way. The lead actors' chemistry and banter is so good to watch. I was smiling with/at them in many scenes. And the kisses were πŸ”₯....no dead fish lips here! No car crash, no amnesia, no over the top rich in-laws against the marriage, no backstabbing friends, no loose ends. It all came together beautifully! And the best part for me was the female lead though not rich was confident, brave yet respectful. She stood up for herself and didnt make me feel pity or embarrassed for her- which is usually the case in most rich boy / poor girl stories. "This is an oldie but goodie series " The one word that comes to mind after watching this series is REFRESHING

    Hot, Sweet, & Everything I Needed

    ABSOLUTELY! 😭 I haven't felt this level of emotional satisfaction after a drama in a WHILE! These couples have just been missin that level of Fight For My Way sweetness you know? And the couple in this drama HAS IT in heaps! I adore them! This is such a hidden gem, literally googled "thirsty k-dramas" and Reddit came through with the rec and for a closed door drama that kept it real PG-13 their chemistry was πŸ”₯Oh also a really fun take on the "marriage/relationship of convenience" trope, it felt fresh and well developed. Will be rewatching!

    Something about 1% must watch series if you love Romantic Comedy...

    The acting of Ha Seok-jin and Jeon So-min is amazing in this drama. People says that Somin is not good actress but I must say she nailed it in this drama. It's a story about a wealthy business man who actually is very arrogant to his employees while infront of his customers he behaves like good man (such a double face man). While female lead is a teacher, beautiful and very humble. Something happens and their destiny encounter each other & to find out that you've to watch the drama.
