Another user wrote, “For me it's the dialogue delivery from her; even though I don't understand Korean, it comes off as obviously that she is a rookie at best. I'd hope a romcom works in favour.” “I'm only watching this because Seo In Guk is the main lead. No hate against Jisoo, but her acting needs to improve A LOOOOOOOT. But I'm praying she's going to do well in this drama,” wrote the third user.
