Friendships/Made Family

that little make shift family in the ramyun shop just gets to me. 

um. every aspect of this show?

hirotos friendship with the guys is one of my favorite things about this show. and the fact that they included their friends in their lives as a couple--the gang welcomed Nao from the get go and what was one two little groups of friends became one big one. Even in the end, after they had drifted into their own lives, when they got back together they still flowed effortlessly. 

first and foremost, that rock stead friendship between our leads (you know, once it was established). 

Technically they're family so it's not found family, but the relationships in this show carried it and so i think it deserves to be here anyways. 

probably my favorite team when it comes to action/suspense dramas. I love how both of our main leads in their own way were lonely and had to find a family of their own, how Bong Soon slowly became a part of the newspaper team -- honestly everything. 

while this was a good show in some respects I have to admit that I probably would have dropped it and not seen it to it's completion if it wasn't for specifically the rag tag team that began to feel like family. I think each character was well casted and did a good job with embodying their role. While I sometimes stopped caring about the plot and revenge etc (a bit of poor writing didn't help), I wanted to still see the team and so I stayed on. That says a lot.
