Except they made it more G rated compared to the webnovel cover 😂

This is how i found out their characters' couple name is Gyu-yeon

Yeah, I feel like the initial announcement of this was very misleading

I may or may not have made it my phone wallpaper

I just watched (most of) it and I love that Gyu-hyun and Ja-yeon's couple name is Gyu-yeon.

That is such an accurate way to describe the poster

I hope the episodes are 60 min and not 30 min like Mr. Queen: The Bamboo Forest

I found it sudden, too, unless he was in love with her the entire time (which dramas are ALWAYS doing lately, so that's probably it). The second leads' slow burn romance is way more my style

Soompi has an article up now as well https://www.soompi.com/article/1689503wpp/lee-sang-yi-and-han-ji-hyuns-no-gain-no-love-spin-off-drama-spice-up-our-love-confirms-premiere-date

Spice Up Our Love will be two eps released internationally on Amazon Prime.

Via Google Translate: Ja-yeon "possesses 'Seo Yeon-seo', but panics when she finds out that the perfect man 'Kang Ha-joon' in the 19+ web novel is not her muse Yeo Ha-joon (played by Lee Yoo-jin), but Bok Gyu-hyun (played by Lee Sang-yi) of 'I Don't Want to Lose'."

I think it's both, it's being promoted as a romance with Gyu-hyun

I actually agree that the main couple's development has been a little wonky. The only explanation I can think of is that Ji-uk has loved Hae-yeong all along... which is probably the way the drama's going, since that seems to always be what happens these days

Now that I think about it, Gyu-hyun is so sheltered that I doubt he could have even conceived of the type of background Ja-yeon had (the one that Ha-jun's comment ostensibly referenced).

I don't think that's really the message, though. Gyu-hyun had to take responsibility and show remorse. He had to realize the negative impact his comments had, and make a genuine effort to make a repair. Which he did. The onus wasn't on Ja-yeon to understand or forgive him. The story didn't try to excuse his actions, just provide context for them.

Yes, and I think the overall message for the second couple is that the internet allows us to say really mean and nasty things that we wouldn't say in real life to the person's face. And that saying such things hurts not only the person reading them, but also the one saying them as well

Where are you seeing that it's only 2 episodes? I've only seen that info on an article about spinoffs in general, and I don't know where they got that info from. Korean netizens are saying they don't know how many eps it will be, and the Namu wiki doesn't list episode count yet. I definitely think it will be less than 8 or probably even 6 eps, but I don't think it's set in stone that it's only 2 eps yet.

I'm stressing, too, but it was already filmed and has a release date so we know it exists, lol. I am only worried about how many eps it will be and how we will access it outside of Korea, because it's a TVing exclusive

Remember: don't trust previews. I am confident the show will pull this off well.

She and Gyu-hyun are endgame, whether it happens here or in the spinoff. I think it would have been more interesting if they had kept it where Gyu-hyun wrote all of the comments, but I do understand why they felt they had to make the romance more palatable

They filmed it right after. NGNL was Oct to March, and this was March to April (so it will be shorter)
