NON-SPOILERY REVIEW: The kdrama itself is very entertaining to watch. It's a romantic comedy that can give you many feels. There were somewhat hard topics that were mentioned and were tried to be used in the kdrama which amazed me. Each episode was amusing to watch for me and I think I didn't get bored on any of them. There were character developments for each of the major characters which was great. I love the lead characters and some of the minor ones. The lead characters were very amusing and the progress of their relationship was very fun and touching to see. Kim Sun-A and Lee Jang Woo are amazing actors who were able to portray their roles well. They were very cute together and you would totally ship them. Ji-an's struggle to choose between her career and her child was a beautiful journey to watch since you can see that she cares for both. The ending was great and something that you would expect to see. Overall, it was a great watch and I would totally recommend others to watch it.

SPOILERY THOUGHTS ABOUT:

• In the early episodes, I hated the part where everyone ditched Ji-an when she told them they should eat dinner out. Team Leader Ma is excused because she's a mom, but the others. They were wrong and they should have tried not to judge Ji-an so much.
• I love that there were many shoes in Ji-an's room. I love the room and I would like the same thinggg. Also, I love Na-Ri and Ji-an's outfits. They were both fabulous and their wardrobes were amazing.
• The scene where Ji-an found out that Tae-Kang was the one she backed up on during contest was funny. Their reactions and what they did next was hilarious.
• I love that the show originally pushed Ji-an to become a single mother. I love that she wasn't ashamed of her pregnancy and did not need someone to cover up what she had done by getting together with her. She did not allow Eun-Sung to marry her so that she could still have the chairman position. She did not prioritize her image over her pregnancy. Being a single mother is not an easy thing and it was great that they wanted Ji-an to become an independent character who doesn't need any man. It was hilarious when she sent those flowers to Madame Jang just to annoy the woman. 
• I love seeing flashbacks of younger Ji-an. When she was new at the company and she did her best to get to where she is now. I love how fierce and competitive she is. She was able to achieve her goal which is good for her.
• I love the scene where Eun-sung took her to the babies in the baby ward. I love how she realized she wanted to keep the baby after Eun-sung took her to the baby in the incubator who held her finger.
• I love the scenes where Ji-an kept interrupting the employees who are gossiping about her. They run away in panic and she's just there having a reaction of her own (to the image where her face was put on a pregnant woman in a bikini).
• I hate the scenes where Madame Jang kept abusing Na-ri. Na-ri was not the best character in the world but she didn't deserve the abuse that Madame Jang was giving her. I hate the scene where she knelt down in front of Madame Jang only to be shrugged off by her. I also hated the scene where she thought Madame Jang was having dinner with her but she was set up on a blind date with an asshole. 
• The scene where her friend suggested that she had an abortion was realistic. Real life situations where used in the show and I'm glad it was talked about. I'm glad that Ji-an did not push through with (of course if she did, there wouldn't be any show right?). 
• I love that Ji-an craved pig's feet all throughout her pregnancy and kept bothering Tae-kang to get some for her whenever she wants one. I love how he set up Eun-sung to take cooking lessons about the pig's feet for Ji-an. His willingness to take responsibility of his child was wonderful to see.
• Omg Taae-kang figuring out that the photo in Ji-an's car was an ultrasound picture. I love seeing Tae-kang taking care of Ji-an when he first found out and he thought it was his child.
• Jun-hee's daughter is so cute. I love seeing how Ji-an imagine that her child would be like her. It was an adorable scene.
• When Tae-kang and Eun-sung first met, they interacted while waiting for a woman. It was a ironic since they were both waiting for the same woman.
• It broke my heart when Ji-an told her parents about her pregnancy and her father wanted her to terminate it. Although, halfway, her mother took care of her at some point and became more fierce. And in the end, the grandparents bonded and argued about the baby.
• The scenes where Tae-kang imagined what Eun-sung and Ji-an were doing was hilarious. 
• One of the flaw of this show was that the pacing was kind of slow. It took quite a long time for the pregnancy to progress. It was in the latter half of the show because Tae-kang found out. The episodes afterwards were really great and adorable to watch.
• I love that Ji-an nicknamed the baby ankles because that's her favorite part of her body.
• The shoes Tae-kang redesigned from Na-ri's shoes was really pretty.
• I LOVE THE EPISODE WHERE TAE-KANG TRIED HEELS. He even put on a wig and a female outfit just so he could perfect the feeling. He was pretty and it was pretty funny.
• I love that Ji-an decided to teach Tae-kang even though she really didn't like him at first. I love that he took that role seriously. His effort was great and it amazed Ji-an.
• I love the episode where Tae-kang went out with Ji-an to look at fabrics(?). They were really adorable together and he even carried her to her bedroom when he realized how tired she is. Hehehehe I am mean but I love that Eun-sung got to see that so that he could face reality.
• I love that Tae-kang saw that Ji-an kept the eraser shoes that he made and her sketches of him!! I love how their relationship progressed in that episode (10) and they even kissed! Omg so adorable.
• I loved how Tae-kang ate everything that Ji-an cooked even though it didn't taste good. It was an adorable and hilarious scene.
• I felt worried about Ji-an when she found out their sample was ruined. I was glad that Tae-kang's father volunteered to help them out in the end and was able to remedy the damage done to the sample. They even won in the end which was well deserved because damn that shoe was pretty.
• I love that Tae-kang proposed to Ji-an and she was finally able to tell him the truth. His reactions were really appropriate. His questions about why she didn't tell him broke my heart. I'm glad to see that they were able to move past that and get back together.
• I hate the part where Ji-an was forced to resign because Tae-kang was being used as a blackmail against her. It wasn't fair but you could see that she really wants Tae-kang's future to be brighter.
• I love the episode where Eun-sung went to a blind date where he does his usual tricks to get rid of women like putting on mascara and the mommy routine and it didn't get rid of the woman. I love that he got Tae-kang as a backup. It was hilarious.
• I love seeing Ji-an fix problems in the company. You could see how great she is at her job and how much she cares about it.
• I love that Tae-kang's father supported them when he found out the truth. I love that he wore the same outfit as Tae-kang and Ji-an when they decidedly to make their relationship public. It was such a cute and fun scene. Ji-an's team even somewhat redeemed themselves when they decided to join the couple during lunch.
• I love Na-ri's character development in the end when she declared her support for Ji-an to be the chairman and backed down. I love Madame Jang's reaction to that.
• I love that Ji-an was able to achieve her dream even if it was just for a little while. She became chairman and was even able to support Tae-kang in his shop after a while.
• I really love the last episode. I love that Ji-an proposed to Tae-kang just as she was about to give birth. 

• Ji-an is an amazing character who started from a woman who's kind of cold hearted and mean (since she doesn't let anyone in) to someone who genuinely cares for others and appreciates them. I love that she's a strong independent woman all throughout the series and you can really see the change brought to her by her pregnancy and her realizing how lonely she's been living her life. She came to realize how important relationships are and how to take care of them. 
• Tae-Kang is a very adorable and entertaining character to watch. He started from being sort of a rebel or bad boy to someone who really cares for others. I love that he became sort of a serious character when it came to his future with Ji-an in the end. 
• Na-Ri I think is just a misunderstood character. Sure she was meant to be the antagonist at some point but I really didn't feel that. I felt like she was just someone who wanted approval in life. She was just selfish at some points but she didn't mean to hurt anyone. I love that in the end she fought for what she wanted and realized that Madame Jang did not deserve her. She became someone who fought for herself and followed her dreams.
• Eun-Sung at random points was kind of creepy but overall I thought that he was a great character. I never did ship him with Ji-an but I liked that he was her friend. He supported her when she needed it and was willing to help her whenever she was in trouble. I love the way he tries to push away women he meets during blind dates by pretending to be someone women wouldn't like.
• Madame Jang was such a weird character. She was selfish and a bitch. She was really the main antagonist for me. Like, what was the point of grooming Ji-an if in the end you would throw her away? Just so someone other than Na-Ri would get the chairman position? What a bitch. She had everything in life but she wasn't happy. I think she was just bitter.
• I love Tae-Kang's father and Bong Soo. They were funny characters that made the series more entertaining to watch.
• I did not like any of the person in Ji-an's team except for Team Leader Ma. They had no loyalty and always talked her behind her back.

• I love the development of the relationship between Ji-an and Tae-Kang. I love that Tae-Kang cared for Ji-an and her baby even before he found out that he was the father. He took care of her and made her happy. I love that he was willing to marry her and take care of the baby even if it wasn't his. You could totally understand why he would get mad at her after he found out but I'm glad they were able to resolve that issue. I love that Tae-Kang was willing to protect Ji-an and vice versa. Things worked out in the end because they got together and I loved every step of it.
• Tae-Kang and his father had a lovely relationship and I loved watching it. You could totally see that his father loves him even though he was kind of rebellious at some points. I love how his father supported him even though he thinks that some of Tae Kang's choices in life are wrong. He was willing to be there even if he wanted other things for Tae-Kang. Tae Kang's happiness is greater for him.
• I was happy to see that Ji-an and her parent's bond was sort of mended throughout the series. I was glad to see them care for her even though at first Ji-an's father wanted her to abort the baby. I'm glad to see that her mother was there for her.
• Tae-Kang and Eun Sung's relationship at first was quite of weird. They did not like each other seeing as they both want to be the father of Ji-an's baby. I'm glad that they were able to work things out and they became closer in the end and shared a mutual interest to always be there for Ji-an.
• I actually liked Na-Ri and Tae-Kang's friendship. When they had trouble, they were able to comfort each other.
