I like it so far. Unfortunately it’s a modern-world-manhwa, which means really boring background, buildings, furniture and stuff. Also it’s a love story between a male dark-haired rather unsocial boss and his female subordinate, which is way too typical and also a bit annoying.
On the other hand, the love story is sweet – even though the female lead makes herself look unattractive (I wouldn’t call her “ugly” though) for good reasons, the male lead still falls in love with her quickly without knowing that she can also look cute (like barbie-doll-like).
The “uglification” is moderate – just some glasses, false frackles and moles, baggy clothes and a wig. As a typical trick that’s used in comics, her eyes also look differently too, which is not even explained at all. The wig might seem weird, but as a person with long hair myself I do understand that the female lead doesn’t want to cut her hair just to make herself look not-so-attractive during her working hours.
Maybe I like stories like this one so much because I can identify myself with women who try to make themselves look more unattractive after being harrassed or worse… I did so myself – and it really works! I even knew a girl who was molested when still a child and then deliberately over-ate until she had created sort of a shell for herself made out of fat for protection – so to speak…
