The feel-good part
Although this is a typical shoujo drama, it focuses on the lead relationship. But also, it focuses on all kinds of relationships and the bonding of each character. Also, as an audience, it is fun to watch how a magazine office works go. It may interest the few numbers of audience in taking up the job at a magazine office.
The disappointing factor
The drama presents a more unrealistic version of how the magazine office works.
It might be a stress reliever and a distractor to how the actual world is.
In-depth analysis
Nami is a strong career women character which is a rarity in Japanese drama thus, stands out more. Nami would have been okay with her average job and would have continued living her life with a decent guy, but she discovers what is truly important to her and starts to have dreams and live positively. The relationship between Nami and Reiko at the beginning was a bit fluctuating. Reiko was a bit greedy at first, but as the story progressed the relationship between them got better. The male lead fully understands Nami’s dream and supports her to achieve her dreams and goals.
Star power
The series has one of the best performances. The acting is so good and is full of fanservice of puppy Jun.
Overall opinion
The drama is worth watching. The acting is highly opinionated on individuals’ dreams and their challenges. The drama focuses on tiny details, such as how a small act of kindness can make a big difference is just so heart-warming to watch.
