Ahhh, a slow pace funny work place anime with men as the main characters. I didn’t know what to expect since this type of anime isn’t what I typically watch, but I’m always in the mood for a feel good anime.
I wasn’t going to watch this anime until I got a few volumes into the webcomic, but I was in search of something to watch…
I was a bit nervous about this because I was really going into the story blind. I found myself enjoying the characters and the story even though some aspects of the plot felt vague at best. I hope there is another season~
I decided to give this anime a chance. I found myself entertained and interested in Bel’s story that I may pick up the novel just to see what happens next.

After See You in My 19th Life I started reminiscing about Mr. Queen and wanted something in a historical setting and remembered this drama. This was something I was interested in especially after watching Extraordinary Attorney Woo.
Was totally there for the buildup and the tension. I was expecting more during the big reveal as it all just felt brushed over (like just a sentence or two then acceptance??). Then my interest in the romance waned a smidge as I just grew so frustrated in the last few episodes as obstacles just piled one after the other. I understand the jealousy involved was perhaps a small reprieve from everything else, but gaah, I just wanted to see something else other than pining or jealousy.
Overall, laughed at times and then cried at others then got butt hurt that it's another drama where I wish my interest remained even after they got together.
Have definitely rewatched a few episodes.
After this my drama watching mood was itched.
I will believe you if you say the feelings were momentary. But it wasn’t for me.
Wanted to watch as I was interested in seeing Shin Hye Sun's work but knew that if I started while episodes were still releasing I wouldn't have finished the series until months (or years) later.
Jumped right to watching this after watching Celebrity as I wanted something a bit more lighthearted. Bawled my eyes out.
We finally meet again.

Was excited for this as I enjoyed her in Sweet Home. While the concept was interesting, perhaps I shouldn't have watched it? I didn't really care for the characters, romance, or plot much after the first episode. The cattiness, backstabbing, and sabotage of the entire show was a Debbie Downer and not really what I was looking forward to at the time.
Not a great start in my mood of delving back into dramas.
