Great series like procedural drama!

I am glad that together with the characters you can talk about important topics in the hotel business! The dialogues show the very salt of this beautiful drama!

I like how Gu Won unfolds from series to series and how he develops! The audience, together with Gu Won, will learn how the hotel business works, learn to pay attention to the details of table setting, humanity, and doing business in the VIP segment. So Ran shares the secrets of his success. And it's wonderful to watch.

Yes, Gu Won is acting quite restlessly like a romantic hero: I don't like how he constantly touches So Ran, provokes her by approaching in front of her face, or insists on another 1 lap, expresses his feelings not skillfully, it pushes me away and it's unpleasant for me to see.

I am constantly worried about So Ran, she is like a victim of harassment from the attention of the Sheikh.

And I don't understand the creators, they romanticize probably incorrect romantic lines. For example, the character So Ran actively demonstrates that her boundaries are broken when she is invited to the room. But she presses into the jamb and not screams when Gu Won allows himself to approach her and push her against the wall. These scenes worry me. It is disturbing that someone may think that if a woman is silent, then she likes what is happening and she does not mind.

I like the business story, but the romantic line still bothers me. I hope Gu Won will show more development in terms of romantic relationships, show how he will come to the culture of active consent, the right to the body, etc. Progressive concepts.
