I know Koreans are hella homophobe, which is probably why they are so careful not to offend straghties by saying things like "we're not supporting any groups" or "it's ok to hate" (which is f'ed up) while having a story with third lead gay character it just makes it pointless.
The love story is as basic as it gets, clueless tactless ambitious girl met a troubled skilful boy and they live happy ever after, with a side of gay. If there are any Korean tv people reading this and thinking of making another romcom with a side of spicy topics, since y'all can't really grasp the concept of bigotry, imagine that this is a Chinese drama and the main chef is posing to be Korean cause i know how much ya'll hate Chinese.
