I loved by myself. I was the only one who felt love.

"I loved by myself. I was the only one who felt love." With those words this show interested me. I know some think this episode didn't have much. Well I disagree strongly. This episode established out crazy awesome lead—Jang Min—and emotionally hooked me. Without heavy flashbacks or "complex" story telling it developed the cast and immediately made me empathize with Jang Min. I feel invested now.

First off I'm so excited to see Jeong Min, he's so crazy and I love that I get to see him in a role so quirky. Of course one that fits what I keep seeing of him. However, this time instead of a devoted boyfriend he's a user. Though just as much woman crazy.

In this day and age men woman aren't supposed to be in love. If they want to get serious it's expected to wait and see if the boyfriend runs. She should just know when it's over. However, many forget that she most likely was in love. The jerk never established anything. Looking at Jang Min and Hoon Dong's sweet moments it's hard to believe that he wasn't in love too. It broke my heart. It can be argued that because they only met at hotels she should have seen the writing on the wall. That all the feedback she got was enough to tell her that what she felt wasn't real on his end and that he had betrayed her.

However, I am a firm believer in breaking up face to face. Getting it out between the two involved. Jang Mi has it right. Even when she discovered it was one sided. That jerk owed it to her to say it face to face. (I feel patiently about this as it's happened to many of my girlfriends.)

It was also helpful seeing Ki Tae realize that his best friend used this girl. He was and is still being cruel to her. I like that in the end he stepped up. Even though he's clearly a jerk, he did right by a total stranger.

The whole cast may not be totally established, but I like it. It's simple and it packed quite an emotional wallop for me. I'm very curious how the rest of the show will go. Great characters and emotions are what I thrive on. Despite judging Marriage, Not Dating before watching I am now very hopeful for this drama.

(Jang Mi and Hoon Dong are so crazy alike together. If you think about it Ki Tae is falling for the female "more innocent" version of his best friend.)

Well that was a wild ride...

There wasn't much to the first episode, but we did get to see how crazy the female lead is! All of the characters are interesting so far so I'm excited to learn more about them. I've continuously heard good things about this drama so I can't wait to see where it goes!

Pretty decent

The first episode was pretty decent. The only thing that really struck me was how utter crazy the main female lead is.

I also found how having a liquor store was seen as a bad thing. I hadn't encountered that in Kdramas before, especially since everyone loves drinking their soju whenever they feel bad.
