Two people in emotional conversation at night.

So I checked out new jTBC Wed-Thurs drama The Interest of Love (Understanding of Love) and my impression changed a heck ton between the first and second week. The first two episodes were just okay, slow and not that engaging, but I like the leads and am in need of a good romance drama so I decided to keep tuning … Continue reading →
