Because this is worth rewatching!
Compared to some of the other kdrama shows I had watched, the synopsis for this one seemed less spectacular and more grounded in the comedy of everyday life. There was something relatable in watching characters navigate through life as tenants working low-pay jobs whilst struggling in relationships. The story quickly grows on you because the lead actors take the show and run with it. Their acting injects the story with sincerity, warmth, unintentional humour and at times, heartbreaking realism. This is a beautiful story of a person who loved before and had his heart broken so became emotionally sealed off and someone who has only ever experienced love and romance in books and TV screens, but never in real life. The beautiful awkwardness of the pair, coupled with some great music, made for a really enjoyable show that had some incredible scenes. There are some really standout moments of great acting that elevate scenes and entire episodes. The show is fairly predictable but that's all right because the plot matters less than the characters.
The other thing I like about this show is that the support cast are also given a lot of screentime for their storylines. They are not merely props for the lead characters but real, independent human beings with their own conflicts - the show does really well to resolve these storylines without ever rushing them. In particular, the friendship of the three main women, mostly over chicken and beer, stuck with me.
Without giving away too much, the show was let down by the last two episodes. They weren't bad, but there were questionable character moments that seemed like they had been done simply to justify two further episodes.
This is a really good show, one that I enjoyed a lot and would definitely recommend to anyone.
