Yeah, The first 8 or so episodes of City Hall feel like a completely different (worse) drama than the rest of it. And, strangely enough, it's only when they really start to focus on the political intrigue of it all that it gets interesting (strange for me, at least. I'm not a huge fan of political or legal j/k/t dramas, the legal/political systems are so unfamiliar to me that it makes it difficult to catch the nuances.).
And the romance is so great. I love the OTP, I think their relationship develops really interestingly and at a good pace. And I even like the fiancee. I think she's clever and compelling as the bad guy in their triangle. I like that it isn't so much about how she's obsessed with Jo Kook and keeping some non-existent love--she has ambitions that include him, so her holding on to him is so much more about her and where she wants to be than trying to make Jo Kook love her.
And yes, the proposal is great. I love the whole last 5 minute montage, very cute.

I too like that the fiancee isn't motivated by desperation or love, just ambition.
