it’s so good so far
The drama has captivated me with its compelling storyline and outstanding performances from the cast. Every episode brings a new level of excitement and depth, making it hard to wait for the next one. The actors' portrayals are authentic and emotionally resonant, truly bringing the characters to life. If the series continues on this strong path, I’m confident it will become one of my all-time favorites. I’m eagerly looking forward to seeing how the story unfolds in the upcoming episodes. The production values are also top-notch, with beautifully crafted scenes and a soundtrack that perfectly complements the mood. Overall, this drama has all the elements of a classic in the making, and I can’t wait to see how it evolves.🥰Was this review helpful to you?
Meilleurs comédie romance 2024
Le point que j'aime le plus c'est que l'histoire est originale pour une romance. En plus que ce soit ZB1 qui fasse l'ost était une super idée. Chaque épisode m'a surpris, il y avait tellement de rebondissements. En terme de comique, c'est très drôle, certains drama dans leur genre est écrit comédie romantique mais ici on retrouve vraiment l'aspect comique. Je recommande vivement. Le casting est de très bonne qualité. J'aimerais voir l'acteur qui joue Danho avoir un rôle principal au moin une fois. Et qu'il prenne un autre rôle que l'homme discret et timide. J'ai mes beaucoup le fait qu'il est des lunettes aussi car souvent les acteurs privilégie les lentilles de contact au lunettes mais je trouve que cela rajoute du charme à cet acteur la. La jeune fille qui joue Yeondu a aussi une grande carrière sur son chemin, j'espère la revoir.Was this review helpful to you?
Love from the UK
I enjoyed Love Next Door even though I sometimes threw a cushion at the screen. It wasn't perfect but I would recommend everyone to watch it. I have looked forward to seeing it every week but I wish Netflix didn't hold back episodes like it does. I have watched other series on week nights which is a shame ...Actors from the smallest to the older were lovely and there were no weak links.
For scripting and direction, I hope there will be a part 2 - in which case I would like to see more passion and dialogue time for the main leads. If the parents can be nice in the end, there is no need for them to be like ogres in the beginning and being more human suited them.
Don't waste such gems like Jung Hae-min and Jung So-min - making them just kiss and hold hands for weeks and weeks when the poor lad has been waiting for years just doesn't seem realistic!

When you think childhood friends can't find love
It was a really rocky road with this one. A lot of these romcoms or romantic dramas, you can always predict that the ML and FL will end up together, that's if one of them doesn't die.This is one where I wasn't sure if the two will actually be together in the end, since both sides of the family has known one another for 30+ years and the two mains have known each other their entire lives.
I was hoping they wouldn't pull a thing they do in the west where most people thinks it's better to just remain friends since they were friends their whole life and they think it just won't work out.
Well, SPOILERs... there's a happy ending for these two to end up together, but it took some rejections at first, more from FL because of certain issues she had to deal with.
Watch this anyway, it's a fun watch and has a lot to do with family as well. Seeing the charimsa and bickering between ML and FL and loveable and great to watch as well. I don't think you'll be disappointed if you like some good old fashion and traditional Kdrama romantic dramas with a new spin on it.

The angst made for a relatable and realistic story
Forget all the hate this drama got from people who want to celebrate unrealistic stories because they are afraid to grow with characters by crying and laughing with said characters.The angst and pain served to remind us that though life may serve dose full of pain at us , if we hold on and fight on , the good days will come … we do not need a wedding to celebrate a happy ending, sometimes a happy ending is 2 people promising to devote their lives to one another .LND will make you cry as you relate to the realistic struggles of its characters , but that is the journey of life , just as you are done crying, LND will lift you up with a dose full of love, puppy love, kisses, devotion, passion , laughter and healing.if one thing this drama teaches you , realistically life may tear you down, but if you put on your big boy:girl pants and fight for your happiness, a comforting , realistic happy ending awaits you. LND is not an unrealistic escape , it’s for those who are willing to face the pain and reality of life , face their own demons , to reach for the light on the other side.The angst and pain taught me to courageously face my fears because through that I may grow… and when the love came, when the passion came , you realize it was all worth it in the end .Lets stop hiding behind unrealistic tales and support realistic dramas that grow us, teach us not to run but to fight for our happiness

The premise of the story is elegantly simple and absolutely captivating.
I really like this show. It's fresh, spontaneous, funny, and entertaining. The chemistry between the leads is amazing, and they look great together. Jung So Min's portrayal of a sassy, strong, and energetic girl with wit is magnetic, especially with the male lead. Jung Hae In's striking looks are hard to miss, but his calm and deep vibe makes him even more attractive and exciting, without being pretentious. The story's premise is simple, but I think the focus on the characters and their development within complicated Korean families makes it interesting. The dynamic and pace of the story so far make it much more enjoyable. I truly love the characters and the story. 💕Was this review helpful to you?

The second lead story steals the show again (part- 464661664464)
*The actors and acting*. The FL Jung So Min, I've personally never liked her much and have dropped every drama of hers that I've come across (Because This Is My First Life , alchemy of souls playful kiss) maybe it's because of the characters she's played, maybe I didn't like the story or whatever. However, the ML Jung Hae In I love him and so many of his dramas I think he peaked in Something in the Rain and then in DP but his performance in Love Next Door is disappointing it's not bad but disappointing compared to his other romantic genre dramas He always has flawless chemistry with his female counterpart but it lacked A LOT here. He was cringe and seemed more friends than lovers with her. overall the chemistry was nothing special*The actual drama*, to put it in one word was cliché and lowkey cringe. The genre is Romcom, there's rom in the story but no com or to put it better there was comedy in the form of dad jokes. the story is nothing new she got tired of her life overseas and decided to go back to her hometown where she discovered and pursued her true passion and also fell in love with her childhood best friend. (This is to all K-drama makers out there please stop using the childhood trope in dramas it has been OVERUSED).Other than that, the romance tropes such as the physical romance parts were especially cringe. Even though the story is simple they could've made it better but it was the same old same old, a homely neighborhood where everyone knows everyone and a school trope. OSTs weren't special either, very forgettable
*The good parts*. The second lead story. it was the best part it made the story interesting and bearable. those two were soooo cute and the chemistry was 100000. I want us all to take a minute and just realize how cute that kid was.
The friendship between the ladies it was very cute and interesting to watch i felt like more things could've been done with that but overall it was a nice spin in the story.
In conclusion, 'Love Next Door' falls short of its potential. While the drama offers moments of charm, its reliance on clichés, underdeveloped characters, and lack of originality ultimately hinder its ability to stand out. The performances by Jung So Min and Jung Hae In, while competent, fail to elevate the material. The storyline is predictable and lacking in emotional depth. While the second lead story provides a welcome distraction, it's not enough to salvage the overall viewing experience. For those seeking a fresh and engaging K-drama, 'Love Next Door' may disappoint. I would probably not recommend this to a friend as there are many other great dramas with similar storylines.

seems likes a promising drama!
I just finished episode one and I must say it looks pretty promising. The premise following two childhood friends reunion which some fun things happening along the way. For episode one I think everything was set up well for this series and the cast is doing a wonderful job currently. I don’t have many big complaints for episode one, but the one thing I must say I’m worried about is if it will stay as promising throughout the whole show. Mostly because it’s a light hearted drama and I’ve been finding many rom-coms to get lackluster in the end of it’s running. But I’m going to try to ignore that and keep watching because of cast. So hopefully it doesn’t fall short of anyone’s expectations including my own.Was this review helpful to you?
Easily one of the best (if not the best) dramas for me!!
As someone who barely moves past the first episode of any drama, there was not a single episode where I felt the need to drop LND!! As with any other script, even this one was not perfect but honestly, when I look back everything somehow fell into place and it felt like even certain flaws were acceptable. I have no idea how I'm going to move on from the show because I have been giving almost all of my free time to it! Seungryu, Somin and Haein made the weekends so much more fun! It's going to take a while for me to get over this drama!! Watching LND has been an adventure I would not mind experiencing all over again!!Was this review helpful to you?
One of the best of all times!!!
In my opinion this kdrama was very realistic, the story was veryy realistic, things that actually happen in real life to ordinary people, they all were ordinary people anyway, a group of people who loved each other and helped each other be better in every aspect. the main leads chemistry is unquestionable, they look soo happy and cute together i cant😭 the second lead couple too, their story is also soo unique i love it. i wish we had more of them tho☹️just like they said in the last ep, every experience that u have and every person that u meet makes u who u are and that’s definitely true.
the friendship of the lavender group too omg i loved them, they were real friends, stayed together through up and downs and made their dreams come true together😕
i really enjoyed watching this, it was never boring, has the right pace, the perfect writing and the perfect actors, it will forever be one of my favorites🫶🏼

The interactions of the main characters are really adorable??
The Korean drama “Love Next Door” is a charming and heartfelt work that truly captured my heart. A love story full of emotions and realistic conflicts managed to capture my heart since watching the first episode. Complex, well-developed characters added depth to the story, making me feel connected to them and feel every emotion they experienced. The chemistry between the main characters is also so strong that it made me really fascinated by the beauty of their relationship. Apart from that, the beautiful soundtrack also adds a romantic feel to this drama. I really enjoyed every scene and can't wait to know the continuation of this story full of romance. With all the emotional power and beauty it presents, "Love Next Door" has definitely stolen my heart and made it one of my favorite Korean dramas of all time.❤️❤️Was this review helpful to you?
