A drama you can watch with no brain capacity and that is just what I wanted
Your typical romcom Kdrama, light and fluffy, sweet and sour, nothing serious. A drama you can watch with no brain capacity and sometimes that is just what I want. It is not a masterpiece by any means, maybe B-Tier, but still enjoyable.
First drama with Lee SunBin, and I really liked her character (Mi Kyung), even though she can be very loud especially in the beginning. Obviously Kang Tae Oh as your heartthrob, green forest flag comes back strong as ever. I mean, how can you not like him?? Still cute as a puppy and now hot as a potato after coming back from the military.
I didn't quiet understand Park Ki Se (her Ex, that literally cheated on her, married the chairwoman daughter, while being engaged to her)... why the hell are we even trying to redeem him? But I guess it was still nice to see them kind of parting ways in a good way. I just found the leads really cute and Kang Tae Oh was a big reason for me to finish this series. Shout out to Mi Kyungs bestie On-ju for being a crazy b*tch cause we love a bestie like that.
Because some people are comparing it to Brewing Love, I agree that The Potato Lab ist better. I liked the humour here a lot more. I guess I like the leads more as well, and I definitely their chemistry. I also felt like, Brewing Love was more "emotional" and focused more on their "traumas" in a way that was kind of over the top and not really relatable for me. The Potato Lab deals with their traumas in a more natural way: for example Mi Kyungs attitude, not giving up and being a hard working (but still complaining about it at the same time, idk it makes it more realistic for me). The point I'm trying to make is, that The Potato Lab is less dramatic.
Acting was good and both leads and the rest of the cast (shout out to Mi Kyungs brother and her bestie, really like his scene when he lashed out on her about the way she was treating him, knowing he's been crushing on her for years).
