I normally don’t like staring-at-each-other scenes in k-dramas - they cringe me out. This one was made so well, they created a magical moment with that music and camera flashes, and I kept re-watching it over and over and over… 😅☺️🫠❤️

I wondered about this as well.
My theory she knows - the last line before she grabs his arm « There are countless reasons I must not fall for this man. [grabs him] But there is just one reason why I have »…

Any BTS links?

I couldn’t scrape myself off the couch binging episode 5 and 6 and rewatching many scenes over and over. I laughed so much at ep 5 my stomach still hurts! I didn’t feel this way watching a show for a long time… (perhaps since Crush Course in Romance and Destined With You). The comedy, obnoxious male lead, the banter - particularly the banter! The chemistry between leads and support actors shines through. The supports pulling an enormous load making the show extra special - ML secretary, her neighbor/204, her female boss, shaman, building supervisor 🌹🌹🌹. Now leads- so happy to see known, but not overused faces - refreshing! I really love seeing male actor in a main lead role - he is crushing it and then some. This unlikable, granted sexy character, just melts your heart in a final scene of ep 6… 🫠The actress is new to me and she is living the role - her accent, bossiness, foxyness… all done to perfection.
Surprising to myself several scenes starting with the very first one made me tear up. Rare occurrence..
We never know with a k-drama second half - many times plot twists left me disappointed. Let’s hope for a better outcome for this one. I find it strange that no scriptwriter listed here on MDL. That name I would definitely want to remember.

I’m so glad to see him in a leading role - he exudes so much confidence and charisma. 🌹

Ep 4 The art class scene - when he opened his mouth and forgot to close it slowly retreating…. 😆🤣🤣🤣 Watched it x5 😅

This trio is absolutely adorable - the kid is sooooo cute!!!! 🥰😍❤️🥰 I can tell leads had fun filming - they are smiling with their eyes. (I would love to see these actors in a better plot though) Even with story lacking, they are too enjoyable to watch to skip this drama.

Lol after watching just 4 eps this was exactly my decision- switch off the brain for the plot, enjoy the leads and a super cute kid. I usually watch a drama like this on a background when doing chores… 😅

Did you get to that scene? 😆🤣🤣

Thanks for sharing your perspective - very interesting. Personally started with K-dramas several years ago and was first fascinated but lately tired of the tropes. J-dramas (contemporary) hit or miss, but like you said old Japanese shows hit differently - really enjoying them.

I really enjoyed watching this - a well written female character in particular. 🌹

These are ageless… Enjoed this one a lot!

I like the leads, but the plot…. 🤦‍♀️

Good show: solid 8.5 stars from me - more of a family drama than romance, relationships simply portrayed, but meaningful. Enjoyed their childhood bits a lot. Had to skip through the last 3 episodes - I think those could be made into 1. Overall a pleasant show without unnecessary dramatisation.

Yes! that’s what I’m basically switched now - Chinese and sometimes Japanese.

Reading your review was a joy, can’t say that about watching this drama… How could k-drama fall so low?! And I love both lead actors… but watching them in this plot made me so annoyed…

Miss her acting 🌹

Exactly!. It’s so sad that actress like Han Ji Min even offered a script like this. The quality of script writing deteriorated so much. I miss dramas like One Spring Night. I’m more and more inclined to watch C- and even quirky J-dramas nowadays.. Plus demonstration of Korean toxic society and drinking started to put me off long time ago…

Impressive work in POJ. Support character that stands out! 🌹
