" Touch " was okay at first, but in the end didn't really serve.
The drama had a bad romance. The age gap was not a problem really, but the real x factor that it was missing was the chemistry. The couple looked more like mentor-student than boyfriend-girlfriend. And the lack of romantic scenes between them did not help at all. The second lead, actually, had a better and cuter love story with the female lead than the main character.
Also, the story was okay, but not well executed. The second couple was messy, and at some point it felt like they were trying to make that bad guy who was hitting his wife, like the victim who deserved a second chance. In addition, the female lead's passion about makeup was kind of out of the blue and felt like she did it only so she can get a job, rather than she actually loved it. The business drama was good though and had a lot of twist.
So, overall, five out of ten.

Disappointed mainly in the mismatch of main actors. Joo Sang Wook was perfectly cast as the professional CEO and talented makeup premium makeup artist, the the female lead was just way too childish to be paired with him. The age gap and maturity level was just way off. She tried to become more mature in the later episodes but then reverted back to her childlike ways who needed to grow up with the amusement park scene. I would have rather liked to seen some kind of a romantic scene instead but there was no real connection. Enjoyed Joo Sang Wook and the makeup theme though, and even enjoyed learning some hints too.

I like that the story is unique and teaches how to properly use make-up. It is one of the interesting thing about kdrama is introducing different types of jobs. I was really interested at first but it gets boring and the leads don't have a chemistry coz the girl is so young for sangwook. My rating is for Sangwook alone;)
