Overall Opinion
Overall, That’s My Candy is an poorly-written drama. Even the top-notch production couldn’t save the drama. The plotline is so vague that it is difficult to understand what the director wants to depict. The series was cut short, and instead of 10 episodes, it was made a total of 6 episodes. Even with less episodes it is a pain to watch. We don’t recommend this drama for you to watch!
