Somehow Miss Moon seems like a character from one of the genderbender series. Like she used to be a guy but then one morning woke up as a girl (and I don't mean only psychologically). Especially when she laughingly asks the colleague if he fell for her and then proceeds to helpfully reveal her bra size, as if they were two guys discussing some third person.

@Kaarme well, I haven't read that one yet but the girls I know absolutely don't mind revealing their bra size in front of guys. Actually they discussed the hardship with buying bras while we were in a restaurant with a group of friends (guys and girls). So, just judging by your comment, this scenario doesn't seem too unrealistic to me, nor does it seem genderbenderish to me.

@Nako
It's just the general atmosphere I felt in this work, not sufficiently explained in a single sentence. There are billions of women in this world, so of course there are all kinds around, so, no, I was not judging whether this is unrealistic or not. I was comparing this to other manga/manhwa in my mind, not to reality. She just acted like she didn't care about her gender at all, and was greatly amused when she noticed the male colleague suddenly became aware of her, whereas in all of their time together earlier he hadn't cared at all, which would have naturally been the situation if she had been a man previously. It was in connection to this atmosphere that when she talked about her breasts, it was like she was talking about some other person, which, again, would kind of have been the situation if she didn't really feel like her own body was truly hers.
