technically, this drama deserves the title "Love Next Door"... they may not be childhood friends, but they're definitely neighbours falling in love π
Look, I was only happy with the last two episodes because a) Ja-yeon x Gyu-hyun endgame 2) my fav ship got a second kiss! wholesome romcom hijinks! .... That's all I needed to be satisfied lol. Divorced of all the other context, perfect ending for these two and I sincerely want more of these characters as a couple. Or maybe these actors can costar in another romance drama?
But, alas, the other context. the happy ending for the Ja-hyun ship almost allowed me to forget that Gyu-hyun never apologized or backed down for demoting Hae-young and exiling her husband on the orders of his creepy mom and dad. Almost. Also, did creepy mom and dad simply allow the equality reforms to pass by with 0 pushback?
As for the main couple, I liked them individually as characters.** I liked all the comedic beats around them. I liked their acting (KYD was really good and likeable in this drama imo). But I personally did not feel their chemistry or even that Hae-young was that into him. The obligatory kdrama breakup just made groan. I'm surprised a show that subverted or played with all the usual tropes decided to just run with that particular trope.
** Ji-uk truly is an angel puppy. As he noted, Gyu-hyun never managed to apologize nor did creepy dad even acknowledge him. Yet, Ji-uk forgave all of them (even the bio mom). Like Dan-ho from LND, Ji-uk is a better man than me.
also to confirm, you can literally check what the thief uploaded on YouTube - at the 24:01 timestamp of the first EP, there's a watermark with Furritsu's Kofi given lol
