Started this drama today and currently on Ep 3 - some thoughts:

1. Like so many others, want this to be a BL - and this is when I have seen only 1 BL in my entire drama-watching life. AND I love Lee Jun Young like crazy and still I want him to kiss the hell out of Song Kang 💋💋💋 the angst, the yearning, the hands moving over piano keys and over each other. Uffff.

Just want them to go like this: https://shorturl.at/HDIxQ

2. Yet again, I can't help but be amazed by Lee Jun Young. He's really the KING of the ACTING WORLD. I am always thinking what new character he will play - they are all so different even if of the same theme. Simply love him, can't wait for him to return from military and showcase more of his talent. So many celebs go to military but I have never missed anyone like I missed him. Damn!

3. People like Kang Pi-O's mother don't deserve to be parents. Period. I want to bi*ch-slap her like crazy, non-stop. Even grandfather, like c'mon dude - relax a little will you.

4. So far - the school's Director, I have a feeling that she has some ulterior motives for sure - but so far I love how she's been good to Jeong Yo. Especially when she went to check with the parents of those bully boys after the concert. Like hell yeah - show them there place. "I hope all your questions have been answered after that performance" SLAYYYYYY!!!

5. The pilot episode started on an ominous note but i hope that's not true and there's a twist incoming.

6. I am hoping there's more to FL's character cause till now she's very weak and the story really does not need her. All she's done so far - discovering Jeong Yo and bringing Tteokbokki is not good - why are female characters written so weakly?? I hope this changes.

Well, he did show off his cooking skills in Business Proposal as well as Kang Tae Moo. He was suave there as required by his character. Looks like this one would be more like a journey - than a one-off scene. Want to know more - because there is a big red flag in terms of FL: Hong Hwa Yeon (really have not liked her in any of the dramas she's been and I have watched).

Ahn Hyo Seop is one of those actors who I have seen from the beginning when they were in minor or support roles. I personally have liked him in many dramas but I feel Business Proposal has been his best role, which is great but also the downside is that nothing after it has compared to it + I feel somewhat he's not had another character that showcases his talents to the fullest.

Really hope this one is a good one - I am a big time foodie and love cooking shows; this drama has a similar theme, so I hope it goes well. The FL though.....really hope this drama she does better.

Ah okay - thanks for sharing the details. I was confused. I have come to know of this actor mainly via Bon Appetit - I thought he was really good and then was surprised to know that he had a minor role in True Beauty as well. Literally went back to watch it - if he was as flamboyant as in Bon Appetit :P

I feel he's an actor who's really handsome and has a lot of potential - someone needs to cast him as a main lead. I have not started "A Love Other Than Yours" still undecided on it - but I have been seeing that its being really marketed well and is all over social media. I hope this hype rubs off the SML - and he does get to shine and land more lead roles. I really have a good feeling about his talent #fingers-crossed.

I ended up writing a long comment, but then that's how I feel towards dramas and actors <3

then what does the OP mean?

I am with you on this! While I don't watch C-dramas; but I watched most K-dramas later after they had released once I had access to them. So very used to binge-watching. While I have managed to be patient and complete many airing K-dramas, I still wish they would be available all at once. Sometimes waiting for a new episode takes away the excitement that you had initially.

is this for real, or you mean any of his drama roles? #genuinely-curious as am not up to date with celeb news.

It is going to be cliche - but I am so looking forward to it. If KYK's role is anything like that in "The Secret Life of My Secretary" - I am so going to love it! 😍😍😍

While I like Chae Soo Bin as an actress, I did not like her last drama (When the Phone Rings) - so hopefully this one is a good drama for me from FL POV.

I also see some of my absolute favorites in support role -
(1) Jung Jae Kwang (OMO! Double Kwangs in this drama - how will my heart handle all this 😍)
(2) some more familiar faces in actresses Kim Ah Young (she's super hilarious; having seen her in The Judge from Hell & recently My Bias, My Boss) and Shin Do Hyun (she's so pretty, remember her as one amazing unnie from Doom at your Service)
(3) Cha Woo Min - always enjoyed his acting; he has such a wide range. While am not delulu for him - he is such a respectable actor. Already seen him in Weak Class Hero, My Bias My Boss, The Buried Heart and then this and also upcoming as spoiled by BWS 😍 in Solo Leveling.

Great cast lineup - my expectations are really high; hopefully they are met well and this is one of the good watches of second half of 2026!

rewatching some episodes of "Marry My Husband" and I can't help but smile like crazy whenever Choi Gyu Ri is on-screen. She has such bright personality and was such delight in that drama. I really want her to be cast as the leading lady in dramas!!! I think she would be amazing!

maybe he can be there as a cameo/guest appearance! That would be fun 🐯

Really looking forward to this drama, I enjoyed Bon Appetit when it aired!
Would love if they come together for this project.

what was his scandal? I am not aware of this

I am stuck - watched till Ep 3; Ep 4 onwards unavailable on WeTV and YouTube does not have English subs. Tried other popular "sites" to watch it but no luck. Can anyone share where they were able to watch this recently? Thank you! (Not working on Amazon Prime and Apple TV either - regional restrictions T_T )

😭😭😭

Regarding the Spy at Appello:
I was dreading it - have been speculating it from last 2 weeks and like me several other MDL-ers were wishing it would be someone else than the I was thinking about (last comment: https://kisskh.at/795204-favorite-employee#comment-27350138)

Barely 10 minutes into Ep 11 and the reveal has been shared and IT officially broke my heart - I am just a viewer but then when someone close to you betrays you, I think many of us know the feeling and it hurts so bad. Heart goes out to Ha-gi 💔

I was coming to post the same thing! Few days ago I saw a random comment which said that BWS only looks good but needs acting lessons. I am in disagreement - he definitely is not the greatest actors out there, and the way his rom-com characters have been - they have had very linear range. But people should see him as Ryu Si-Oh - he was extremely good and the only reason to watch an otherwise trash drama. I really feel he should take on more roles as a grey or villain character - he will do great - but then I guess he's getting cemented somewhat as a romantic hero.

Exactly - I really hope that he is not the spy. But the way the last episode that aired has gone by + the preview showing a dejected Hagi; my mind is not prepared for it - cause it will be a worst sort of betrayal

Really hoping the spy is the cleaning lady or someone else - but not the work hyung T_T = we will all be devastated, if that happens.

I really hope the cleaning lady is the spy for the very reasons you mentioned. But the way they are showing it - I fear it would be someone closer home. Why though! If it is - it will be sad.

Yim Si Wan! Yim Si Wan! Yim Si Wan! Yim Si Wan! Yim Si Wan!

I had thought the same - that she will be like a double-agent and the way she smiled in the end in last episode. But it seems unlikely - how will she have access to so many important notes etc.

Also the way they are hinting it in Ep 10 - like Hagi literally told just two people about his action plan, and then they way he is testing his hyung - its sad but looks like it will go in that direction.

Given the preview of Ep 11 - looks like Hagi is devasted in one scene, and it seems thats when he will come to know of the betrayal - which is like being betrayed by a family member...

I really hope its someone else - not just for this drama, but in general I want to believe in goodness of people.

It is revealed that she's not in Ep 9; and it's being hinted at some one else. I really hope it's someone else and not him - cause it will be heartbreaking.
