I second that

'The reason to watch this is the dog. Really, the dog is funny, smart, and cute.' LOL best recommendation ever. Loved 'Love Shuffle' and most of the other shows you've mentioned here. But now I just really want to watch Goo Dae Young in the 2nd Let's Eat series again. I miss Doojoon on my screen!

the plot was ridiculous and repetitive but Nika was still adorbs. She's the most adorable character I've seen on tv for a while..

Yeah, that's the thing - all the dramas you mentioned have kind of romanticized these characters and tried to show it in a romantic way, whereas this show is explicit on how this might actually be a creepy behaviour.

Oh my, I would be frustrated as hell If I was Jung.. :D

@oyaaaji aah, I was watching that scene and thinking to myself that Seol wasn't supposed to be that scared of Jung, but I guess they wanted to show that in the show.. But yeah, she is a bit prejudiced towards Yoo Jung and a bit more judgmental? But she's learning not to believe everything others say about him and first ask him about it before deciding on anything so 'yay'

@oyaaji oh yeah. sometimes, if they've used the cliches well and it's not there just to please the viewer it's really enjoyable.

lolol @mugilock you are totally right. In real life Jung would creep everybody out I think. Personally, when I watch TV I enjoy watching more complicated characters like Yoo Jung - it creates conflict, you know. Whereas Inho.. yeah he's sweet and all but..

Yeah, I'm not even talking about the jealousy here with Jung. It's just how he approaches all the situations and how he has been made to live his life - not showing what he really thinks - because somehow it was bad that he stood up for himself when he was a child. Like.. that scene with that girl when he was really young.. I mean - the little girl was no angel either - and only Jung gets the blame for that? You should talk it out with the kid if you're a parent and explain what's what, not order them around. Oh wow, turns out I'm really pissed at that father :D lols. I'm just really into that whole thing what drives the characters and such.. hehe

Well, in my opinion Yoo Jung would have turned out just fine had the father not interrupted like this in his actions and bringing in the Baek siblings for Jung to turn out "normal". It's like he made him explicitly into this weird child and told him to be nice (and the reasoning behind that was just so not right). And come on, Inha is nowhere near normal. I really don't like how the father handled this situation with Jung and I blame him, truth be told..
Inha has a couple of different sides to her when the story evolves @TurkishRose

The question still remains.. does it NEED to be accurate on all levels? I personally enjoy seeing some cliches in a drama every once in a while (and for some of them I keep watching the dramas..) And I do enjoy watching Jung's character on screen and how all the others react to his character. No need to go all deep on entertainment, you guys :D
Sometimes I think that yes, dramas have forgotten how it is in the real world, as you say @Selty .. but.. I would say that why would you watch this on tv if you could go out and see it happen under your nose. If you get my drift. And, it is a good way to remind people the other - not physical - stuff about life as well.

hehehe. I know! I was hoping they'd include those scenes in the drama as well and they did not disappoint :D before this episode came out I've been reading my favourite scenes over and over :D

lol. this scene, and the one before that in the bar were some of my favourites in the webtoon as well :D

he said it's too noisy (several times) and that his head hurts

It's so hard not to spoil people on this site! :D I'm having a hard time keeping myself from telling too much!

@TurkishRose I know, right. She manages to make the characters so despicable. Her eyes, man. oh god :D

also, the fact that they used that actress for her younger version completely threw me off. She played an awful character in Geum Sa Wol and I just can't get it out of my system. Whenever I see her eyes that are about to pop out and hear her scream out nonsense I just want to flip tables. Don't know if that means the little actress is that good, but whenever I see her I feel disgusted :D

@TurkishRose yeah. that's the thing. In the final scene we can actually see that he has feelings, he just buries them deep down, because that's the way he can live the way people expect him to. What person without feelings would feel hurt by people judging them so easily and taking advantage of them? He's had a difficult childhood etc. so I don't blame him, really..

@crazy_drama_ghost I know. Just finished and got chills - that goood. This is how it should be.

Episodes 19 and 20 have actually aired...
