I think you should give it a try yourself. Only you will be able to know if it is worth it or not. Also, with regards to the ML and FL, they are childhood friends who literally grew up together, both of them are quite immature and playful towards each other. There is no 'bullying' here, they just banter or tease each other a lot, like how friends do in real life, but it usually dims down in further episodes. Both characters have their immature side and mature side.

I'm someone who enjoyed both QOT and LR, currently I am also watching LND and NGNL. For me, i'm leaning more towards LND because of the substance of its storyline plus realistic and not super cringey or typical romcom characters. While for NGNL had to put it on hold, it's completely romcom with the usual typical cliche plot, plus ML having the typical romcom character. So, if you're someone who enjoys all the cringe, fluff and pure fiction then you might like NGNL since it focuses completely on romance.

omg what a sharp memory ahhaah I shall join you on this one!

It's already saturday here hehe

can't wait for her to realize her feelings

IKR, so tired of seeing such complains over and over again. Atp they should just start creating their own drama

FR!! He is so underrated. With such acting skills he deserves to land on bigger projects honestly.

Agreed. I dislike short dramas because of such reasons, but finally I can say this is my fav short drama. The slowmos were absolute chefs kiss. Bless the director and writer! ofc! FXZ!

I thought I was the only one who find that scene disrespectful. I was like why did she have to say that of all things. It made me disappointed in her.

IKR! for me they have the most chemistry and I am looking forward to both of them the most. I love how natural their interactions are and not too over the top.

Well, it's normal to use the comment section or whatever platform you use to vent out your disappointments about a drama. It's normal for dramas to have negative comments. However, what OP was pointing out was for those who obviously don't like the 'childhood to lovers trope' in dramas from the get-go. If such trope is inline with your interest and you came to watch a drama with that same trope, however, you suddenly became disappointed because you find something you disliked about the storyline or character of the drama, then it is normal for you to vent out your disappointments or lay out your critics on where and why you started to dislike the drama despite initially liking it. It's a completely different case from those who disliked or aren't interested but still forced themselves to watch such dramas from the start, and are constantly complaining about the same thing over again.

ikr, it's become sort of a norm now in kdramaland....so tired of such!

True! I agree with you! some people are so quick to judge or make assumptions. Sex workers are 'normal people' too, not all interactions with them are merely for sexual purposes, it's 2024 can't believe some people still have such closed mindsets. Even more so, Artist are normal people too! Whether they are engaged in such activities or not, as their fans we are in no position to invade in their private life matters or better yet, make false accusations/assumptions based on an interaction of just liking a dm from a fan. Like, everyone can be a fan no matter what background, seriously.

Exactly! I also honestly don't understand the logic behind such. It's not as if we are scarce of k-dramas, that dramas like this are the only ones left in the whole world. I find it so unnecessary to allow a drama you dislike to consume your time, which instead could have been used for enjoyment rather than attending to the feelings of disappointment or frustrations. Unless, they simply find joy in spreading unnecessary negativity. It's not even difficult to focus on the k-dramas that better suit your 'interest'. I wonder when such people would understand that not all k-dramas were made to cater to them or are targeted towards them.

tbh, i'm starting to wish they would do it in cdrama way, with 40 episodes and a next season

Okay, i'm ready for the revelation about Seunghyo's family story. We're finally about to get the reason for their distance and lack of communication towards each other. I honestly liked both Seunghyo's parents, they look so cute together. It's also, quite evident that they do have feelings for each other but there seems to be an invisible wall between them that had long been built and both of them are afraid to climb over it.

same thoughts! I think the kisses will be at further episodes (but I honestly wouldn't mind if the writer proves me wrong hehe)

Seriously, after episode 10, why does it feel like time suddenly slowed down. It felt like it's been two days forever.

So will they be releasing it before this year ends or by 2025? 😭 I'm really looking forward to this and hope they release it much earlier.
