Love Is Imminent (2024)

Jiejie romance at work that was a pleasant watch

Older woman-younger man romance, also known as jiejie romance, is my favourite trope. I didn't realise that this trope was present in this drama until 15 minutes of watching it. This is a simple jiejie romance that is set at workplace. I enjoyed this drama despite not knowing any of the leads.

What I liked:
1. FL characterisation - She was smart & mature. She showed her vulnerability throughout the drama and I liked that in FL. I enjoyed Liu Mei Yi's acting in this drama. She reminded me of Korean female singer, Hwasa.
2. Romance - Their first hookup, the morning after and the shower scene were sexy and I found them to be attractive. There were some nice kisses in this drama.
3. ML characterisation - Despite them working together as colleagues, I liked that ML was respectful of FL. He never abused his power to have a relationship with FL.
4. Work - I liked that they supported each other whenever one faced challenges at work together.

What I disliked:
1. Antagonist - I dislike people who take credit for something they never work on and this happens with the green tea. FL's father was horrible too.

Favourite scene
When FL saw ML at work right after hook up and took him to the pantry
