But why is this Kim Se Jin in so many scenes? I’ve read here that he steals the scenes he’s in, and I partly agree—some of the interactions are actually quite funny. But he has so much screen time that he effectively has the biggest role after the main couple. I’m on the seventh episode, and the whole sequence—from when he tries to get into the apartment onwards—felt interminably long and painful to watch. No normal person would have put up with it. He literally forces his way into the apartment and does things that no sane, well-adjusted person would ever tolerate. He isn’t even a close friend; he behaves like a total creep, meddling in affairs that are none of his business. His behavior is completely and utterly inappropriate.
A nice series with good acting from Go Youn Jung in particular.
Dong guy probably has some kind of diagnosis that has not been noticed and has gone untreated. This means that life becomes extra hard for him. But this does not explain why he has to look like the ugliest person in the world when he puts something in his mouth. His brother also asked him if he ate the same way in public.
Making a little noise when eating is according to many cultures a good sign that you appreciate the food, but Dong guy takes it to a whole other level and I think it looks disgusting.

So, no—I just don’t see the comedy in this.
