Mini-review:
This drama is quite silly, but also very fun and cute. It clearly sets out to entertain viewers, and it absolutely delivers on that regard. I really vibed with its goofy sense of humor and, as a fan of stories with lots of misunderstandings, I think the writers made a pretty fun use of that trope. But the drama's biggest strength is obviously the main couple. I know from experience that Fumi Nikaido is an infallible actress with an insane range (just compare her performance here with the one in the recently finished Shōgun), and Chae Jong Hyeop is the epitome of fluffiness and charm (plus he looks cute AF throughout the drama). On top of that, their chemistry is just fantastic. Oh, and I also loved the second couple; they had such a hilarious dynamic. So, did Eye Love You change my life? Definitely not. But did it make me laugh out loud and keep me thoroughly entertained? The answer is a resounding yes.
