• Wow, this is sooner than I hoped for. I love the leads and I am looking forward for it, but didn't care for Hometown Cha Cha, so I am hoping for the best.

• Hope this drama does well and may the story line nit disappoint.

• I can't agree more with Koala, love JSM she's underrated, kinda gives me a Kim Ji Won underrated feel but finally got a blast with QOT. Hope this is the case for JSM. Looking forward to this!

  • JSM has picked too many mediocre scripts and she was miscast in AoS because the rest of the cast was too young for her and she didn’t visually match them. This is a good pairing for her and JHI might have also finally found his right match. His best chemistry was with HJM but he was the most lovable in his breakout role in WYWS. His best acting is obviously DP but he needs more romcom roles to gain more international exposure. This pair has found each other at the right time and let’s hope the writing holds up.

    • I watched AoS without knowing any cast nor their ages. Nope! She didn't look overaged compared to the rest of young cast at all. I was surprised at her real age though afterwards.

    • You should watch pretty noona who buys me food.

• Hope this drama does well and the story line not disappoint

• HCCC went off the rails after episode 10 hopefully this will not go the same trajectory. YJO will go from SE to LND in the same week. It’s about time for him to breakout. The upcoming batch of TVN romcoms will break this dry spell after QOT and LR. Finally the last 2 quarters of this year are looking good.

  • You killed me with all these abbreviations

• He has done romcom already. Didn't you remember One Spring Night?

  • That was not a romcom or I missed the comedy part.

  • Something in the Rain, not One Spring Night, has got romcom vibe.

    • Correct. Something in the Rain is a bit of a romcom vibe

• Love Jung So Min since her debut .

  • Me too!! Sweet girl when she debut and have grown into a fine actress.

  • I can't believe the only drama of her I've watched is AoS I that I like very much. I'm very fond of her in AoS. She is the soul of season 1 and the plot actually evolved around her character. That drama became a huge Netflix hit and her acting had incredible contribution to the strong chemistry between her and Lee Jae Wook. Nonetheless, it seemed all the buzz went to LJW, very similar to Lovely Runner. Fangirls rule the Kdrama Land anyhow. LOL.

    • Lol, her early dramas are fun to watch..ut she was still raw. I did enjoy Jung So Min in Playful Kiss even thru the Lead male was so bad at acting...🤣🤣. He really just depend on his looks to finish the drama, ignore his bad acting.
      But the drama was still very popular in those days.

    • LOL. Was she the FL of Playful Kiss remake? I watched that. I couldn't recognize her in AoS though.

    • I have a feeling you will like JSM in The Smile Has Left Your Face. The drama is great and so is the male lead.

    • Sadly, you're totally right. Unless the female lead character is the stereotypically Badass Girlboss Strong Independent Woman™ who pulls people's hair, is unnecessarily rude— sorry I mean “SaVaGe”, and beats up people who are like triple her size, the female audience won't hype her up and all the buzz will go to the male lead, as always 🙃

    • @Somebody, yes she was the female lead...one of her debut lead role. She was cute in there, about dramatic in her acting at times but still in line with character. It was fun to watch her...especially watching her trying to create chemistry with a male lead who has glass frost around him 🥶🥶. She definitely tried hard...

      @Jana There smile that Left Your Face was a solid drama...not idol level but serious.

    • @Irene, you cracked me up. LOL. Yup! It seems that's how it works.

    • @Jana, thanks for the recommendation. I'll check it out. I really like her a lot.

    • You might like JSM in Because This is My First Life. It’s a super underrated slice of life drama

• I love both actors! Really excited to watch it!

• I’m really looking to this. I love both leads and I’d be shocked if they didn’t have amazing chemistry. I’m iffy on the writer (love TCC, hated HCCC) but excited nonetheless. Sometimes chemistry makes up 70% of rom coms anyway.

  tvN’s upcoming line up is really good. After this airs, it’s Jeong Nyeon which I’m also pretty excited about!

• I love JSM. The ending of TSHLYE still breaks my heart. That was such a good remake of my fav’ Takuya Kimura drama.
  She really is underrated and under-appreciated.
  I love that long hair on her. Makes her look more glamorous.
