An underrated gem

This show has it all: romance, love triangles, sexuality, unrequited love, humour, relationships and many more making it my all time favourite kdrama.

Story
When I first read the story I didn't think it was anything special just another unrequited love story about a weird woman with no backbone who for some reason is in love with someone who's rude and disrespects her on a daily basis. But when I first started the show I realised it was much more than that The show is about 4 love triangles, which each deal with love (not just romantic), life, regrets and relationships. The show can be quite serious yet deals with these subjects carefully, tastefully and always humorously. I can also say this is the first and only kdrama I watched where I would class it as having an actual Love triangle, not a boy who has been in love with his childhood friend for 10 years but was too cowardly to do anything about it. Both men actively pursue the female lead.

Acting
Hyojin is one of my favourite Korean actresses and I'll watch anything she has been in. She's not dubbed the queen of Romcoms for no reason. I loved her character specifically her growth into a strong minded, opinionated and successful woman.
Jungsuk, what a performance he made me hate him , then sympathises with him and then eventually love him. When he cried I cried too!

Rewatch Value
Rewatch????? I already have like 4 times. This drama made feel all the emotions and I can't stop re-watching.

Also have no clue as to why this show isn't popular internationally.
