The drama is available at Viki.

The only other C drama couple I know about is Liang Jie and Xing Zhao Lin. They did 4 dramas together. I think there are some drama couples that focus on the short dramas scene, but I don't know any of them.

OMG! Dawn Chen and DGZ together again and in a contract marriage drama (one of my favorite tropes)! I can't wait! Hope thus gets subbed soon.

I was wondering the same thing: is this a remake of Taiwan drama "Just You" starring Puff Guo? That would be great if true. I really enjoyed the Taiwan drama.

Actually, what I said was "passionate about the CRAFT of acting." (Sorry for the caps, but I'm unable to bold). And I listed some examples of activities that people who are dedicated to the Craft do. (I began by stating "For example..." ) These examples included not just degrees, but also other types of activities such as taking group classes and working with acting coaches. Anyway, thanks for your response and for providing some information about Jisoo and her activities on the craft of acting. It is good to know that she is working with an acting coach, and has worked with acting coaches in the past.

So your evidence that she is "passionate about her craft" is that she is starring in dramas. Many people work in the industry and can have starring roles, but are not "passionate about the craft" of acting. They are there because it pays well and some enjoy the perks, but they don't care about improving their performances, stretching their boundaries, or working on the craft of acting. A prime example is Won Bin who had many starring roles, and he was considered a talented actor , but he was not passionate about the craft of acting and ultimately stopped acting I was hoping you could provide some solid evidence forJisoo that she cares about the craft of acting. For example, is Jisoo pursuing a bachelor's degree in Drama/Theater at a university? If not pursuing a degree, is she taking courses in drama and theater at a university,? Is Jisoo participating in any acting workshops or other related short course programs such as summer theater institutes? Is she at least taking group acting classes with noted acting and drama teachers? Does she at minimum have an acting coach with whom she is studying daily or weekly? Is Jisoo involved with any regional theaters, perhaps taking smaller roles in live theater? People who are "passionate about the craft of acting" actively pursue these type of training activities and also study the history of drama and theater, and they continue their training and study life long. It goes beyond just working on jobs, or an occasional session with an acting coach. Lots of people enjoy acting and work on many jobs, but don't actively work on the craft. All I know right now is that Jisoo has worked on three projects and (I guess) enjoys acting on TV.

That is very unfortunate for us viewers. Thanks for the information on the influencers and the TV/Film industry in SK.

I am not surprised. I really wish SK entertainment industry would fill roles through auditions that focus on finding the best talent actor for the specific role.

Influencers? Terrible. Again, I really wish that SK entertainment industry would stop this type of practice and cast roles by holding auditions.

I keep hoping that SIG and JSM will work together again in the future. I do wish he had a different acting partner for this project, regardless.

Yes, the kids were so cute!

What proof do you have that Jisoo is "passionate about her craft?"

What proof do you have that Jisoo is "willing to put in the work" to improve her acting skills?

I agree with you that it sucks the Korean entertainment industry is so focused on hiring idols with large fan bases rather than focusing on casting the best talent actor for the particular role. The interesting thing is many times the idol doesn't bring higher ratings regardless. I wish SK would stop the practice and just hold auditions and cast roles that way so that other talented actors can have a chance.

I'm glad to see SIG back in a rom com, but I was hoping to see him paired with a different actress. I would have loved to see him working together with Jung So Min on this project. They were phenomenal together in The Smile Has Left Your Eyes and it would have been so nice to see them working together in a rom com. So disappointing.

I understand where you are coming from. Male Lead character did feel rather like a cypher. Despite the flaws, I did really enjoy this show.

Not going to to lie, I was a little disappointed we didn't get a proposal scene with our main leads at the end, but I still enjoyed the final episode. Overall, this was a great drama with wonderful performances by the cast and an interesting script. I liked that we got a happy ending for our second couple and it was nice to see everyone happy in both work and personal lives, with more of a balance. In spite of my feeling a little disappointed with the ending for the leads, I think this is going to be one of my favorite dramas of 2025 and I will strongly recommend this drama to others.

That is great! Thanks for the info. Yes, I also hope that we will have more GL at Viki.

It is also at Viki with subs as Ep. 13 and 14 of The Queen Who Crowns.
