A delicious slow burn romance
A collaboration I was eagerly awaiting.
It's a sweet and subtle slow-burn romance, where emotions and events unfold like a metaphor for the creation of chocolate.
I'm thinking, for example, of wasabi chocolate: spicy at first bite, then tender and comforting once it melts into the heart. I associated this chocolate with the hug scene: a difficult moment, imbued with their respective traumas, but all the more touching once comfort is found. And as a bonus, this scene evokes a nostalgic memory, like a sweetness savored with a delay...
Each story was linked to a chocolate, and each chocolate to an episode.
The music and shots were carefully chosen, with great aesthetic accuracy.
The casting did a remarkable job: both actors were deeply touching.
Shun is an exceptional actor; perfectly in sync with his partner, they exude the same energy, a beautiful harmony on screen. Hyo Joo, for her part, was splendid: she seemed almost Japanese, and her accent was impressive! I wasn't always in sync with some of her performances, but given the context, it was probably difficult for her to display more confidence.
Overall, I really liked this drama, even though I would have expected more romantic connections.
It's a beautiful story that's a change from the usual ones where I laughed, cried, and loved with them! When he tries to speak Korean, OMG 😍😍😍
It's not an exceptional drama, but it's a touching one that deserves to be seen, where you're sure to have a good time! The cooking is limited to the chocolate factory, so she's present, but there's more. What a great cast!
