As per the first installment, the first episode is pretty boring and painful but by the second episode I was invested.

Jin Myung
I love that she’s this same, unflappable calm older sister. She’s so sensible. And she doesn’t smile unless necessary.

Ye Eun
The best moment for me was when Jang Hoon talked to her so kindly not knowing she was the one with the past. And it was so good for her to see that there are some guys who are decent human beings and want to do the right thing. Her mother is really hard on her and I found it intriguing that someone so cheery and open would have such an oppressive mother.

Eun Jae
This character continues to be super boring and annoying. She’s petty and shallow.

Ji Won
I love Ji Won even though her character in this seems even more painful than before. She says whatever comes into her brain without any filter. She totally stole the show towards the end of the drama. I really enjoyed her time on the screen. She seems to have got more pretty and more showy. And the actress portrays her vulnerability so well.
No matter how she plagues her friend, Sung Min, their friendship is beyond resilient. And we see the cracks in Sung Min’s feelings towards her. You can see when he opens his expression to her, looking hopeful that she might be about to say something romantic to him. So incredibly sad.

“If anything happens to you...[wait for it]... I’ll have to go home by bus.”

Jo Eun
It was subtle how the drama showed us that Jo Eun was warming up to her house mates. At first she really looked like she had no interest in them whatsoever beyond her mission, but then the drama shows her talking about them so much to her friend. And she starts to smile as she talks about them/to them, which is the first time we see her smiling at all.

“It’s better to be alone than laughed at.”

“Troublesome midget.”
“Still better than excessively tall.”

Jo Eun’s height is almost an awkward thing. But it’s so cute to see how small everyone is compared to her, especially Yoon Sunbae who is such a boss but still has to physically look up to Jo Eun.

Jung Hoon
I loved how much on screen time Jung Hoon got. He’s a great, mature character and a perfect fit for a house full of girls. He reminded me of a friendly ahjussi always fixing something out on the lawn as the girls would walk by.

Heimdall
Jin Kwang was pretty boring but he did say this great line. “We’ll wash the dishes. That’s for us men to do.”
