Great Chemistry but Predictable Plot
“Love Next Door” is a decent pick if you want something light and relatable.
What really stood out to me was the strong and natural chemistry between the main actors. Their interactions felt genuine which made the story believable and enjoyable. I also liked how the story used everyday situations like neighbour misunderstandings and awkward first meetings.
But honestly, if you’re only here for the romance, I’d suggest watching the first half of the episodes on 1.5x speed. The early episodes felt a bit boring to me, but I get that they were needed to build up the story. The plot follows a lot of typical romance dramas, so it’s pretty easy to guess what was coming. To me, the supporting characters, especially Mo Eum, Dan Ho, Dong Jin and Na Yun, didn’t get much development and I just felt like I needed more.
