Wow this show is thoroughly unhinged 🤣 feels like watching a frat house in action...every single character seems to be functioning with one screw less 😅
I'm really confused about the second leads. 3 eps in we haven't seen anything at all about the vp's mysterious "wife". The sfl seems to be a teenager stuck in limerence for someone who obviously doesn't see her. Also what was that beyond humiliating dialogue about wanting his concern?? girlie, get a hold of urself pls 😭 But maybe it's too early to judge?
If one actually watches this completely objectively, the drama isn’t actually doing anything to push a romantic arc between the fl and her math teacher. It feels more like audience speculation and inference rn than anything from the makers at least for now. The math teacher saying he will try to understand irrational variables from now on (aka her) could've been a swoonworthy line in a romance drama but in this show and this context, he obviously only meant that he is going to try to understand her as a student capable of her own talents instead of forcing her to adhere to his standards of what she needs to prioritize, which imo is a brilliant character choice because it does two things at once: allows for his character growth as a teacher who meets his students where they r without judgement, and second, it makes the fl's internal conflict start as she starts to see the teacher differently (which then pushes the story forward).
So what most likely will happen imo just like next week's preview showed us is the fl catching feelings for her teacher and him eventually maybe realizing it through her BL novel and the way it's progressing and putting a stop to it. Then the fl will have a rude awakening and heartbreak and the drama will deal with it in true coming of age fashion where this experience helps her grow 🤷♀️
On one hand i would love more episodes every week, but on the other hand, i'm glad this warm cup of hot chocolate of a show will be accompanying me through most of may too 😍😅
Hoping coupang play continues putting out such bangers. I'm really looking forward to seeing more stuff from this platform...
This whole show feels like a catalogue for byeon woo seok to keep strutting on screen coz how is this man this gorgeous in every single outfit and from every single angle known to man 😭😭😭 the last time i had to replay scenes to catch the subs coz i was too busy staring at the actor on screen was probably seo kang joon in undercover high school *sigh*😍🤣🤣
Besides that, I'm loving all the characters on huiju and the prince's side, even her brother and his wife are so adorable lol. I'm rooting for the secretaries. Didn't see that cdrama-esque ending to ep 7 coming but that's on me. Palace? Politics? Envious in laws? Obviously I should've expected poison 😭🤣
True. But still after SML said " after work is done, lets go out for meal." She didn’t say anything…
Idk about creepy but he is definitely overdoing it with all the smiling for sure. It's very unnatural and takes me out of the drama each time hes on screen. It feels like the actor playing this role isn't really immersing himself in this role coz it feels like he's playing himself 🥹
But totally agree, just another delulu sml who cant take a hint 😭 pure plot device to make ml jealous. There's an sfl too who is obsessed with the ml 🤦♀️ i wish they gave us a second couple like in business proposal without this love triangle bs
Loving this drama! Feels the most comforting out of all the romcoms airing right now. Again, this might be the year of reciprocal relationships because I love that the female lead here too has already unconsciously fallen for the ml and he's followed along too, instead of the usual situation with the fl being the most clueless idiot on the planet. Also loved how she didn't lead the sml on and actually set her boundaries straight there. At the same time the irony of not even a few hours later, her going back on her own words of not wanting to mix business with her personal life with the ml and him becoming the exception is especially why i'm really enjoying this show and their dynamic.
Tho ofc the fl has issues she needs to work through before she gets into another relationship. For one, she needs to take her mother out of the self made pedestal she's put her on and see her for who she actually is. A woman who abandoned her child for her career's sake. I wouldn't villainize her mom because we dont yet know the full context of what happened in her marriage and motherhood, but hope the drama handles it with some nuance without justifying what she did completely either.
The ml seems to be carrying his own trauma too. Wonder what that's about?
Overall im loving this drama and looking forward to seeing more of these two!
This was so heartbreaking and sad with so many tender moments throughout. Park jihoon anyhow naturally carries this disposition of someone who desperately needs to be protected or hugged and so seeing him in this role made it even more bittersweet. Knowing it's based on a real life story made it even more difficult. I can see why this movie was popular in SK. They've depicted a difficult story from their history with so much warmth, hope and tenderness. Highly recommend!
Out of all the airing dramas, this is the show im looking forward to the most after absolute value of romance every week lol...and it's 99% coz of ahn hyo seop...the man can have chemistry with a potato (or mushroom in this case)...iykyk 🤭🫠
