The success of this film lies in the direction of photography
This is a great film but why? What is all the fuss about?People say it’s the lead actors chemistry- it’s true that they look very together but that’s because the camera catches them very well.
It’s a combined masterpiece by the actors (need chemistry to film), the director (need to guide what actors do) and the DoP (director of photography - maybe a different person to the Director or the intimacy coach they had?) - it’s the lingering shots on his hands, his minute expressions, her face, their faces together. That’s what makes it so powerful.
This film really explodes when they start putting their faces close, there is so much tension! You read passion and restraint.
Remember this is a drama, they are acting, so what is so good about this film? They manage to make it feel real. That we are having a front row seat to the highly charged passionate romance.
It’s not that women want to be treated badly, it’s that they want to be passionately desired by a man who respects and loves them as well. Someone who is grumpy and rude to everyone else is a pussy cat for her. That’s what is getting women excited.

trigger warning for woman harassed at workplace
This show should carry a trigger warning for women who have been sexually harassed at the workplace. Just because men are beautiful doesn’t make it ok for them to relentlessly pursue a woman at work. And one of them is a repellant character so that’s even worse.The show carried by the amazing charisma and beauty of the main stars but in real life it would be a nightmare for the woman involved.
Korean mean don’t have a good reputation among Korean women and this show provides clues as to why that might be.
