Filming is complete, the spin off is two episodes and having it air in same timeslot of (No Gain, No Love) would retain audience, seen as a natural progression.

If you're paying attention, the writer has already set in motion for this triangle. HS backstory, 2FL clearly is attracted to Ha Jun.
Ja Yeon has moved on from blaming him for her past traumas by her Father.
He submitted to her wishes by doing Community Service at the Orphanage. He's normal, made a mistake (one night online Troll) according to her.
Sincerely apologised multiple times, gotten hands on therapy from parents, interviewed by Police.
Ja Yeon fainted from exhaustion, witness him being hit by the white truck. Waking up she discovers him in the room, having carried her to Hospital, paid for her room, replaced her Phone.
She's already moved on from blaming him for her childhood trauma.
is there many romantic scenes or just some sweet subtle romance till now? I want to watch this with my mother…
There's no overtly intimate scenes in the six episodes already aired. Some language, hand gestures that your mom likely used when ordering you to clean up, do homework.
I don't know about later, but now the thing between jayeon and bogyu is a no-no-no situation to be a romance to…
Bogyu made a mistake (online troll), Jayeon traumatic past resurfaced.
We've seen this play out before, both parties made mistakes in judgment.
Her tripping outside the Police station, fainting at his alleged death by white truck, his carrying her to the hospital, replacing her phone, were enough for her to change the settlement to laundry service at the orphanage.
Kdramas: seatbelt, seat adjustment, umbrella from rain, snow, catching person tripping, blocking sun to be triggering from neutral to heart flutters. ๐

Too many critics mistakenly delude themselves thinking this was written for them exclusively.
Each of them were not in the right place to change their mind.
FL coping mechanisms of her physical/mental illness
Her family and friends in South Korea being excluded from supporting her in the U.S.
Her fiancee trying everything to be there and feeling helpless.
The guilt, anger in South Korea of her family and friends learning about it three years later.
Communication and understanding played out correctly on screen.
Instead of moralizing who should have done this or that, was it a realistic interpretation?
Reading the comments section, acting isn't a complaint.
Light on the romantic, comedy elements in the reunion of the leads in S. Korea is explained (now).
Closure of her California chapter work/life is complete.
Blossoming romance in the second half in two couples. Resolution of parents on their communication skills, understanding.
Don't get caught up in the weeds trying to apply logic in these dramas.
There's different types of Chefs as they are Cooks.
Chefs run the operation, overseeing the Kitchen and are not cooking on a regular basis for a customer.
She likes to cook, is intelligent has a high work ethic.
Caveat: Logic doesn't apply in Hollywood/Kdramas.

This is applying logic on my part.

Ha Jun is her HS crush, she's having naughty thoughts about him still.
Online Troll (hater) has become a normal guy (Chaebol) to her who she misjudged and falls for him.
Hollywood/Kdramas/Harlequin isn't complex and they know how to dangle male eye candy for female audiences.
The CEO's Menu (Korean spinoff) already set to be aired after this drama is complete on Oct 7th.
Epilogues, Trailers are notoriously used in misdirection, angst to boost/retain viewership.
Ignoring them is the best option for nervous nellies.

Drinking games should resolve this dilemma.
These tropes are common, this is mild compared to QOT, WWSK, Dali and the Cocky Prince, Destined With You.
Have a great time!
