Love Next Door

Some of the Most Horrible Women Ever Put on Screen!

“Love Next Door” endeavors to be a light, sweet romantic comedy with some drama thrown in for good measure. What we end up with is a bunch of women who are barely tolerable, and sometimes, not even that. We get some domineering, controlling, meddling women who snap at the smallest of things. They are also selfish and cowardly in how they act toward each other as well as others around them. Frankly, I’m not sure how or why any reasonable person would want to spend five minutes alone with any of them. They are about as appealing as a pit of vipers.

Choi Seung Hyo and Bae Seok Ryu are childhood friends who grew up together because they lived next door. Their mothers have also been friends for a long time as well, although there are plenty of times throughout the series when we wonder how and even why. Their mothers and two other women get together in their “Lavender Club” to hang out. What ends up happening is they spar, argue, and compete over everything. Believe it or not, this is how many women in Korea interact with each other. Everything is a competition and a fight for status. What’s especially sad is that they often use their own children to acquire that status. They’ll brag to others about what schools they go to, what educational academies they’re enrolled in, what grades they get, and even what areas they excel in. These are women who live vicariously through their children. They use them as pawns, which is why many of these so-called “mothers” aren’t even fit to be parents at all.

Seok Ryu has returned to Korea from being in the US with a prestigious company. Of course, her domineering, twisted mother, Mi Suk, can only think about how this impacts her, especially after bragging to her friends about Seok Ryu. Things become further complicated when Seok Ryu announces that she’s also broken off her engagement. Mi Suk nearly disowns her daughter right there on the spot. Mi Suk uses the pathetic excuse that, “I don’t want my daughter to live a hard life like me!” This is a lie. Mi Suk is only concerned about how Seok Ryu’s decisions reflect on her. Her anger is out of pure spite and selfishness.

Seok Ryu isn’t exactly an angel herself. We find out that she was diagnosed with stomach cancer and refused to tell anyone about it. She claims that she was sparing everyone the pain. Whenever someone pushes others away, it’s never to spare others the pain, but to spare themselves of their own. Seok Ryu is a true coward, and when Seung Hyo finds out, he justifiably berates her for her thoughtless and selfish act, even going so far as to call her a hypocrite and a coward which is 100% on the nose!

Seung Hyo is a young man who’s making his way in the architectural world, opening up his own firm and doing quite well. However, it’s obvious that he’s in love with Seok Ryu, even though he puts up defensive walls and refuses to let her know about it. When he finally does, Seok Ryu can only think about her own failings and problems, and she promptly refuses his advances. Seung Hyo laughingly buys a small carton of milk to be used to give Seok Ryu time to think it over. The stupidity of such an act is this: love isn’t about thought. If you actually have to think about it, then you’re very obviously not in love. What we have are two 34-year-olds acting like 16-year-olds. It might be endearing, but it’s actually quite pathetic. Even when they finally do end up together, Seok Ryu is too scared to tell anyone about the relationship, and so she begs Seung Hyo not to tell anyone. If you’re too ashamed to tell anyone about the relationship, then you have no business being in one. They scurry around like two kids worried about getting caught with their hands in the cookie jar!

We also have the third member of the childhood trio, Jung Mo Eum, who is my favorite character of the series. She’s a paramedic who doesn’t apologize to anyone for who and what she is. She unapologetically wears her heart on her sleeve, especially after meeting journalist Kang Dan Ho. It’s funny watching Jung Mo Eum berate Seok Ryu for being silly about her feelings for Seung Hyo, but after kissing Kang Dan Ho, she’s suddenly a 14-year-old girl hiding and running away from him. That was the only annoying thing about her. Kang Dan Ho has a cute little girl (his niece, in fact) that he’s raising all by himself. Korea still has problems accepting single parent families, and after finding out, Jung Mo Eum’s pathetic mother refuses to allow Jung Mo Eum to see him. Luckily, Jung Mo Eum lovingly tells her prejudiced mother that she has no say in the matter and that she fully intends to continue seeing Kang Dan Ho. Jung Mo Eum is the only strong female character of the entire cast! I would have preferred the series revolve around her rather than Seok Ryu.

Seok Ryu is very immature, but suddenly, like a light switch, everything is suddenly “okay” with her in the last four episodes or so. The writers must have had something against women to write them all to be such horrid people. It made me miss “Business Proposal” and “Our Beloved Summer” where we got good, strong female characters who knew their own minds, acted their age, and figured out for themselves how to navigate the pitfalls that came up before them.

Seok Ryu’s mother, Mi Suk, is about as cold and vindictive of a woman as I’ve ever seen in over 47 years of watching shows. I’m not sure how anyone was dumb enough to marry this woman. When Seung Hyo’s mother, Hye Suk, offers to pay for a trip to Europe, Mi Suk erupts angrily at her because she feels inferior to Hye Suk. The truth is, Mi Suk has very low self-esteem, and she feels inferior to everyone! It’s no wonder she feels the need to brag and show off her children. She’s a very pathetic character. One of the worst I’ve ever seen. And even when Seok Ryu desires to leave programming for a cooking job, Mi Suk explodes all over her! Her daughter, Seok Ryu is barely any better. Her own self-esteem is so low that she prefers to hide away rather than face her problems. I laughed out of pity each time Seung Hyo wanted to talk things out and Seok Ryu would scurry away like a rabbit saying, “I don’t want to talk about this!”

What’s truly sad is that the performances in this series are very good. I’ve seen Jung So Min in several series, and she’s always very good. Her only problem in this series is that she’s terrible at kissing scenes. Her mouth is always tight-lipped and it’s painfully obvious that she doesn’t like doing them. If that’s the case, she needs to stop doing romantic dramas. It hurts an actor’s performance if they’re unwilling to be genuine and get into a scene, no matter what it is. Also, it’s stated that Seok Ryu lost 70% of her stomach to cancer. I’ve known people who’ve had their stomachs stapled in order to lose weight. There is no way Seok Ryu would be able to eat as much food as she does based on that fact. This was something that the writers clearly overlooked.

The series definitely didn’t live up to the hype with mostly unlikeable characters, especially the women. While there may be many truths, it would have been nice to see these characters grow and evolve naturally rather than simply having the “light bulb” go off to suddenly fix the situation. It just wasn’t believable or realistic. It’s also sad to watch grown ups acting like children around their parents rather than having the guts to stand on their own feet. That’s not appealing either, especially in today’s world where women are finally becoming more empowered than ever before. Overall, this series was disappointing.

What happened?

So, I made it to episode 8, and I think I'm done. What is this? How is it possible to have quite a great cast, huge names, actors I really liked in the past and to eff this up so much?

I normally love Jung So-min, my most favourite drama ever ('because this is my first life') is with her as the FL. I also liked Jung Hae-in in the past, he was great in 'Snowdrop', in 'one spring night', you name it.

But this? Where to begin? I didn't really like the first episode with all the 'funny' farting intro. Not funny. But I kept watching.
There is no, and I mean none - chemistry between the leads. It all seems so acted and cringe, I can hardly watch it.

So we have two mid-thirty people. One is a rich son, with his own business and for Korean standards he looks super attractive. Yet he steadily acts like a 7-year old boy. We are meant to believe that apart from this one relationship he had in the past with this self-confident but oh so friendly and well-meaning ex (unrealistic to the brim by the way) that is steadily showing up for no real reason, he was a virgin-and childlike boy in the body of this now mid thirty man waiting for his childhood girly to return and otherwise staying abstinent? Common. A guy like him, looking like that, being rich and having his own business? He would have lead a very different life if she had been gone to the US for years, and we all know it.

Same goes for our FL. She acts and dresses like a child. Concerning her relationship with the ML she acts like a clumsy little girl that didn't have her first kiss yet, but we do know she lived in the US, and was engaged and thus had an adult relationship with a man, so she knows how things go. Yet, we have this setting in the house of the FLs parents, who by the way are supposed to be poor, while the very rich son of a doctor and a busniesswoman, somehow has lived across in almost the same house? How? These two families are of completely different financial background and they certainly never lived in the same neighbourhood even, also not in the past?

Next thing? I really don't like ANY of the characters, they all annoy the hell out of me. Jung Hae-in? He is not funny, it's not his area of acting, at least not in such badly written drama, no one could make this seem remotely funny. It seems staged and almost exhausting for him to do these supposedly 'funny'lines, it's so obviously not him and it's unwatchable for me as I know he is a really good actor in other settings.
The FL and her constant screaming and nagging and physically attacking everyone? Not cute, not romantic, not anything, just annoying. Same goes for her mother, screaming all the time and physically attacking people.

Then the storyline, was there any way to make this any more unbelievable. Not only does or ML wait until forever for that girl that steadily beat him up and screamed at him, no, when he finally decides to tell her he likes her (again, like two 12-year-old would act, not like mid-thirties), out of nowhere, in exactly that moment, the even more unlikable ex fiancee stands there blablahing something staged about wanting to get back together with the FL. I laughed out loud at that scene, how ridiculous, who wrote this?

Not enough, our FL, who is screaming and attacking people at random all the time does not say anything to anything. The ML confesses - no reaction, no answer. And no, that milk bag scene with the expiry date was not funny. Why not just talk like adults? It's all Kindergarten. Why? It's not cute, it's so annoying. Same with the even worse situations when both men are 'fighting' over her. The ex-fiancee can just stalk her and show up at any time with this psycho grin and she always lets him talk instead of just finally telling him off. She does not decide anything at any point which contradicts the aggressive and loud character she is otherwise supposed to. And now, to add insult to injury they even come up with a cancer story? Come OOOON!

I think this is the worst drama I tried to watch in a longer time, and there were several bad dramas in the past two years as my impression is the quality of storytelling and writing has been going down the drain in the past two years compared to years like 2016, 2017, 2018, where there were several brilliant dramas per year.

So, no, please South Korean writers and drama producers, you can do better. Not even generally good actors help anything if it is just unwatchably bad.
I give the 2,5 instaed of 1.0 for the acting of the FL's father, as I think he is really good and actually the only one I find credible in his role.

Dropped, and I mean dropped out of a skyscraper in this case.

My own personal, unpopular, opinion

I was fully on board for this one. I love all of the actors in it and was chomping at the bit for a decent rom com. Here's what worked for me -
1) Visuals. All of the actors are just so attractive.
2) Bickering main couple (at the beginning).
3) 2ML's daughter was just precious and not a brat.

It started out well for me, but slowly but surely went downhill for me. I'm all for a good trope, but this show was just too tropey for me. Some things were good, some just had me shaking my head and talking to the tv. It seemed to me that every episode brought in a trope to further the story.
1) He's loved her for a long time - I'm always in for this.
2) Their bickering was chemistry-ing, but I didn't buy their chemistry once they decided they liked each other.
3) Physically/emotionally abusive parent. I know this is used for comedy, but it was too much and went on too long.
4) Miscommunication - this applied to the main couple, the second couple, and both sets of parents.
5) FL's brother was pretty much a waste of time.
6) Of course, there was a woman that liked him that he worked with. Thankfully, she wasn't overly irritating and realized that she had no chance "They might as well start planning what schools their children will be going to" - what a great line.
7) Ex-girlfriend that wants him back. They redeemed themselves by having her come around to what was going on quickly.
8) Ex-fiancé coming back into the picture. This felt like manipulation to further the story, because why else would he randomly show up out of the blue?
9) "Let's keep our relationship a secret".
10) Parents trying to marry off the kids to others.
11) Parents against their relationship.
12) Parents against her career choice.
13) Secrets - 2ML has a daughter that we don't find out about for a while and then she's not really his daughter. Why?
14) Illness. Cue noble idiocy and not wanting to be with someone to save them from hurt.
15) 2FL going away for a year. A paramedic going to Antarctica for a year?!?!
16) ML's mom is a total bi-atch through the entire show, suddenly we think she has Alzheimer's. But no, her forgetting where she is, that she resigned and where she sent her suitcase is all due to stress?!?!
17) FL wanting to put the wedding on hold because she wants to focus on her career. Women are better than that at multitasking.
18) Wedding red herring. It wasn't the OTP.
19) The leads walk into the sunset, bickering as they go.

I would definitely recommend this show since I'm totally in the minority, but it just didn't work for me.

Honest and sincere opinion

'Love Next Door' is, without a doubt, the finest drama ever produced. It’s a classic slice-of-life narrative that resonates deeply with everyone—every episode truly hits home.

This series masterfully takes you on a profound emotional journey—from deep sorrow and raw struggles to brightest joy and pure delight, always anchoring itself in enduring hope. These are the raw, authentic emotions we frequently experience in the diverse situations of life, making it universally relatable.

The chemistry among all characters is exceptionally compelling. This is particularly true especially for the main leads; their chemistry speaks in silence—unparalleled, magnetic, and so powerful it defies explanation—truly unlike anything I've ever known. Every scene was so brilliantly and intensely delivered that the emotions hit the core of our hearts. It left a lasting and powerful impression on the audience, even long after its final episode aired.

Though the final few episodes felt a tad rushed, the overall execution remained beautifully connected. Personally, I yearned for a deeper exploration of Bae Seok-ryu's perspective. Yet, despite all of this, the entire drama is exceptionally well crafted.

Honestly, those who might not fully grasp or appreciate its brilliance are simply overlooking its powerful appeal, perhaps even allowing external negativity to diminish its value. But let the undeniable truth be spoken: it stands as the best drama ever made. ‘Love Next Door’ has left a deep mark on our hearts, securing its timeless place within our fondest memories.

Sincerest applause and all due credit go to every individual involved in orchestrating this drama into such a resounding success. Kudos!

Romcom with emotional trauma, chaos, friendship, family and love

I absolutely loved this show. Even though I was spoiled for a lot of things, I still loved it and enjoyed it. They are the perfect chaotic couple, and I am completely IN LOVE WITH THEM. Friends to lovers, she/he fell first, he fell harder, golder retriever boyfriend, their cute bickering and flirting, I just can't get over them 😭😭😍😍😭🤌😭😍🥺🤭💙

The emotional trauma made me cry. My baby girl went through so much, and even though I found out the truth of her illness before the show, it was still emotional 😭😭😫🥺😭🥺😭 Her family should have been more understanding and not just because of her illness, but the way she was treated before and even after speaking up, my baby was so hurt. I'm still mad at her mother. And I hate the ex.

Her best friend's relationship and story was so cute as well. I definitely didn't expect the plot twist about the kid's family. Also the guy was a coward for so long, I got annoyed but his confession made up for it.

Back to our babies, I loved the flashbacks to their pasts and childhood. I didn't expect the female child actor to be the same as in family by choice, but it was a happy surprise 😍💙 They both missed 30 years and 5 episodes of their dating era wasn't enough. That 10 month time skip was too short. I want their wedding, their house, kids, family, more scenes. I miss them already 😭🥺😍🥺😫💙 I was in tears and blushing and giggling from how cute and fluffy and chaotic and in love they were. I want more!!

A Love So Soft It Made Me Hate Men Less for a While

I swear, Love Next Door is the PERFECT example of why Korean dramas are so popular. The acting, the longing, the slow-burning romance, everything works.

If you’re looking for something that will make you blush, kick your feet, internally scream, and feel all soft and fluffy inside…then this is the drama for you.

Plot**
The story follows Choi Seung Hyo and Bae Seok Ryu, next-door neighbors who have known each other since birth because their mothers were best friends. They grew up side by side, shared everything, and even dated during their school years. But as life moved forward, they drifted apart. Seung Hyo becomes a well-known architect in Korea and opens his own firm, building a name for himself. Meanwhile, Seok Ryu studies abroad, works tirelessly, and lands a prestigious project manager position at a major company in the United States. She spends ten years building her career and reputation overseas — only to suddenly quit her job, break off her engagement, and return to Korea without telling her family why.


Let me say, Jung So Min has seriously grown on me over the past few years. She’s so effortlessly funny and natural. When she cries, I feel it. When she’s embarrassed, I’m embarrassed with her. She makes Seok Ryu feel real! not perfect, not overly dramatic, just human.

But can we talk about the romance?! Because this is where I completely lost it. The longing !! the way he looks at her, the quiet concern, the way he shows up for her without making it about himself. It’s that “I’ll do this for you, not for my own satisfaction” kind of love. Soft. Respectful. Steady. And yet I was screaming at my screen every episode like, “JUST KISS HER ALREADY PLEASE.”

This drama had me weak. I’m not even joking. It softened me. It made me hate men less for a few hours (which is saying something). It made me wish someone would pursue me with that kind of quiet devotion and years of unresolved feelings. Watching it, I found myself smiling for no reason, completely swept up in the sweetness of it all.
And honestly, this is why Korean dramas are so loved. They make you dream. They make your heart race. They make you feel giddy and hopeful and ridiculously soft.

[Another episode by episode review/reaction] [spoiler warning]

[Another episode by episode review/reaction] [spoiler warning]

ep1// So cute! I love the childhood friends-to-lovers trope and these two are so fun to watch together!

ep2// They're cute but I'm a little confused about the timeline. So they met as kids, and then started having crushes on each other in high school but never confessed/pursued anything and now they're falling in love again?

ep3// So he had a crush on her in HS but we don't know what she felt yet. I like they're rebuilding their friendship for the viewer first instead of immediately pushing for a romantic storyline. It makes it feel a lot more realistic/happier.

ep4// I love how they're all such close friends. I love seeing friendships like this on screen.
Awww they're so sweet together!! I hope this is a situation like "he fell first, but she fell harder"

ep5//The journalist guy is crop circle kid's dad, his mom helps take care of her, and her mom is out of the picture.
ML realized he still loves FL, now to see if/how he pursues it. And when she starts to like him back.

ep6// I'm glad they all act like adults even when they know they have competition. They're in their early/mid-30s in this series. I would be so irritated if they acted immaturely like how romance leads/characters usually do.
She's starting to realize he likes her! The cringe/secondhand embarrassment is getting to me a bit though. Also, why is he a tsundere?

ep7// Ok, the 2nd hand cringe is hurting my soul but it's ok.
The romance between the journalist and the paramedic is finally starting! They're also really cute.
The ex-fiancé came back but she's not taking him back. I'm glad this show doesn't do the whole 2nd ML trope and instead focuses on 2 different relationships to provide a varied dynamic.
ML's dad thinks mom is having an affair with her boss. I already saw this spoiler so I know the boss is gay and they're just friends.
ML finally confessed!!

ep8// ML is such a green flag now that he's gotten over the communication error!! The way when the FL was having an argument with her parents he didn't try to butt in and instead silently supported her and stopped her brother from talking over her. Normally MLs try to defend the FLs even when they can and should fight their own battles. But he recognized that it wasn't his place and respected her decisions.
FL used to have stomach cancer and that's why she took off from her job for a while 3 years ago. She didn't tell anyone so the only person in SK who knows is her ex. And that's why she pushed away the ML when they were going to the hospital, because she didn't want him to find out.

ep9// Weird situationship phase. He's also not really taking no for an answer.
They finally found out she had stomach cancer.

ep10// I feel kinda bad for her ex. They were a good couple and probably would have stayed together if she'd reached out to her family after she got cancer. He was taking care of her himself and got burnt out and that caused them to fall out, but they really did love each other. It's a realistic story. There is no bad guy. I hope he also finds someone nice again to fall in love with.

ep11// Woo rollercoaster! ML's parents aren't getting divorced anymore and are finally talking about their feelings. But the mom might have a brain/memory issue.
FL finally realized she likes ML and confessed and they kissed! Did not think that would happen so quickly but I'm glad he dropped it after the "expiration" date and instead, she was the one to confess this time. They're a very cute couple. I did have to pause for like 5 mins once I realized she was confessing though; the cringe was killing me. But they're cute. I was sorta right before with the trope but it was more like "she fell first (and then forgot about it for a while), he fell harder".
Also, the paramedic got the job position at the south pole she'd been dreaming of! I wonder how/if her relationship with the journalist will continue; maybe a long-distance relationship for a while?

ep12// Paramedic confessed to journalist but was rejected and now they're awkward.
ML and FL are a very cute couple. I think the only conflicts left are the paramedic/journalist and what happens when the main couple's parents find out they're dating.

ep13// FL's brother ended up falling for a scam product. Wonder what his ending will be. Looks like they're setting up a relationship between him and the ML's employee who had a crush on the ML. Ok, so he's back to working at the gym, he's gonna get his trainer certification, and actually get a job now. Nice!
Paramedic had a friend/mentor who died saving kids from a fire.
Journalist's daughter isn't actually his bio kid?? My heart dropped when she said "Hi Dad" oh my god. She's actually his niece and her dad was his brother?? His entire family died in the car accident??
Thank god they didn't do the "one of them gets physically hurt while they're separated/fighting" trope. I would've rioted.

ep14// They haven't even told their parents they're dating yet and he wants to propose?? What?? I'm not surprised she said no, I'm more surprised he thought she'd say yes. Especially since it took her so long to agree to even date him.
I'm glad the employee got over her crush though. She's very mature.
The FL's parents are still having money problems and decided to close the food shop. I wonder how they're gonna get money now.
Lmaooo ML trying to get dating advice from the journalist. Blind leading the blind.
I'm glad the paramedic's mom finally supported her relationship with the journalist. Still confused why she said no in the first place. Was it cause he already had a kid? But she wanted a grandkid anyway?
And now the moms are fighting for petty reasons lol
Oh my god, the parents finally found out!! ...And I've caught up so I need to wait a few more days to see the next ep aww.
From the ep preview it looks like their parents (more like just the moms) will be against the relationship because of their current fight. I think this is the last bit of drama before it gets wrapped up. I can't think of anything else that's in conflict right now.

ep16//
Happy ending for everyone! Everyone got what they wanted and more and everyone's happy.

A rollercoaster of highs and lows

I aim to keep my reviews short, spoiler-free, and focused on the key points to help you decide if a drama is worth your time. I never fast-forward and always strive to watch the entire series to give a fair and thorough perspective.

This drama is a rollercoaster of highs and lows, offering an intriguing blend of heartfelt moments and over-the-top storytelling.

The characters are undoubtedly one of the drama's strongest points. They're layered, engaging, and easy to root for, particularly in the friendships and love stories that form the heart of the series. The cast delivers strong performances overall, though it does occasionally lean too much into exaggerated acting, which can be off-putting at times.

For viewers new to K-dramas, this show may feel like an instant favorite with its charming leads and emotional storytelling. However, for seasoned fans of the genre, it may not resonate as strongly. Unless you're a devoted fan of the lead actors, the drama's flaws might outweigh its strengths.

The storytelling is uneven, excelling in the portrayal of relationships but faltering elsewhere. For example, the first responder scenes and the depiction of a pivotal event that drastically changes the male lead's trajectory feel cringe-worthy and lack the realism needed to support the narrative. These missteps make certain parts of the drama feel over-the-top in a bad way, detracting from the emotional weight of the story.

Additionally, the long runtime of certain episodes clocking in at 1 hour and 30 minutes per episode can test patience, with some scenes feeling unnecessarily drawn out. A tighter edit would have made for a more compelling watch.

On a positive note, the OST is a highlight, beautifully enhancing the drama’s emotional moments and leaving a lasting impression.

In conclusion, while this drama has its charms, particularly for fans of the leads or K-drama newcomers, it might not hold the same appeal for more seasoned viewers. Its engaging characters and touching moments are worth watching, but the uneven storytelling and unrealistic elements may make it less satisfying overall.

Is it really worth it?

First of all, I really like this drama. It gives me a bitter sweet vibe.
The rekindling of the feeling of first love, the friendship,the family dynamic is so interesting.

I will say my favourite character so far is Jang Mo-eum. She's has a very charming personality. She's kind and brave, she knows what she wants, she the best friend you could ever wish for. She is very supportive of her friends,she seems to be open-minded too. Their friendship is so precious!

Baek Seok-ryu is strong and independent. She works hard, even when she was trying to find her dreams, I would say she is very dedicated. Her family dynamic is pretty interesting.
I wouldn't say her mother is a bad person but she really did annoyed me in episodes 7 and 8. What does she mean her life is a failure, and want Baek to live a successful life. The father too thinks he's a failure. When Baek confesses she wants to cook, that it was her dream, both her parents were furious. The father and mother is projecting their life experiences on Baek.
I feel like they don't say what they really want to say and are just be passive agressive with each other, it's just building hatred.

I don't understand why her mom wants Baek to get back with her ex. Like Baek can live a successful life in Korea too, why would she return to the US and relive all that stress. I really don't love the parents much, they are kind of annoying.
I mean I feel like Baek dealt with her sickness alone because she felt it was no big deal. She could handle it because it's always been like that.
She is unable to show she is hurt and suffering, even with the ex, she refused to explain the reason why they broke up. She doesn't know how to rely on someone or ask for help, maybe she did with her ex before he cheated.

I really understood Choi, imagine finding out your closest friend had to suffer alone as she was ill. She should have told her family and her friends about her illness. And why the heck did she tell her ex to hold onto her and not Choi. Why must she bear all the hurt and suffering alone, she doesn't deserve that.
I hope she learns to lean on her friends more, forget about the parents, I don't think she'll ever lean on them.

But at the end of all the characters are very complex and have their flaws. Let the miscommunication and misunderstandings marinate and spice their lives up!!
