I have a feeling 2019 is going to be yet another great career year for Park Min Young, she just has that confidence glow about her and why not considering all things look rosy for her.

There was a one week gap between dramas that gets us into February and also a new lunar year as tvN didn’t air the next Wed-Thurs drama after Encounter (Boyfriend) ended two weeks ago due to last week being busy with lunar new year prep.
