    This is a story full of everyday life and fast-paced action! Even when the male and female leads have misunderstandings, they resolve them quickly and decisively; the interspersed flashbacks don't feel drawn out or tiring (though some readers might find them slightly confusing). Most importantly, the female leads are well-balanced; no character is marginalized, and each has their own important role and clear role. Especially after the third female lead appears, the plot reaches a mini-climax; she is definitely a key character who connects the beginning and the end. I highly recommend watching it!
