Just another love story
I have been anticipating this drama because of the main leads as probably everyone else, but even though I love Jong Hyeop, I don't have many hopes for this show. Surely there's only one ep out, but by the looks of it, there won't be much going on beyond the ML pursuing the FL (read: pushing himself through her life) who has a complicated relationship with the SML until she realizes her feelings for the ML.
There wasn't anything impressive in this episode, not even the interactions between the leads, and definitely nothing that set the drama for an interesting plot. Also, this drama solidified my hatred for this very common kdrama trope of the ML taking care of an embarrassingly wasted FL. At least LHJ wasn't that badly drunk, but it really does annoy me when the FL gets drunk around a sober ML and makes a fool of herself with her tipsy walking and blabbering. It's especially annoying when this happens in the very first episode already, but I regress.
Good thing the drama will only have 8 episodes because I can already tell by the pace of this episode that the whole plot will just be the romance with nothing else relevant going on.
I'm still going to stick around though, and the leads at least will make it worth watching it since they do already have great chemistry and I love my boy Jong Hyeop, but I'm already kind of let down and can only hope it will get better and not stay as just another (plain) love story.
