Reasons to watch: They had me at PD Ahn Pan-seok’s latest romance — but then they had to go and toss Jung Ryeo-won and Wie Ha-joon in there, and I was a total goner. Love them or leave them, there is something unforgettable about each of Ahn PD’s dramas — and I’m not just talking about his penchant for laying the same song over nearly every scene. He captures something so real and intimate in his dramas that sometimes I feel like I’m not watching a piece of fiction. He also loves stories about complicated people falling in love in complicated situations (see: One Spring Night, Pretty Noona Who Buys Me Food), and we are set for more of the same here. Jung Ryeo-won plays a star teacher at her hagwon, and Wie Ha-joon is her once-student and now-coworker. Let the romance commence!
TL;DR: Ahn Pan-seok’s latest romance drama + Wie Ha-joon’s first romantic leading role
