That ginormous age gap is about 10 years. Quite manageable – at least for me.

It’s not the fact that he isn’t hot – it’s the ginormous age gap that gets me. He looks like her uncle, and seeing them together romantically feels inappropriate and WEIRD. Ugh. Definitely in the non-romance train.

I actually kind of forot Si-won was supposed to be in this, until I saw the preview! Originally I was very excited about him, but so far, I’m really enjoying what they’ve set up so far.

“In fact, this drama’s ability to mock pomposity by amping up the pomposity is one of my favorite things about it.” IKR?

OMG– I seriously love that first screencap. And the drama. And the recappers.

I can not imagine him pursuing anylady who doesn’t amount to $ terms. But I can imagine Anthony expressing his love the way Master Kang does
(in his book giving his beloved ring is tantamount to saying I love you forever and ever). I’m looking forward to see how Anthony Kim’s character deals with this annoying and unprofitable emotion^-^

Very well said! Agree with everything you said. Un believable as it is ‘romance’ seems to have a ‘bad’ name here. And as much as I love romance I’m not a fan of the scene where the girl stands to be kissed by a guy like a dead fish nor do I like how most romantic scenes and storylines are beeing shot and written (e.g. meaningless romantic kissing scenes). The audience could be shown how much the leads love and care for each other without even a kissing scene let alone a meaningless one.

With KMM’s character here it would be more profound to let us know the process of how he falls for the writer through compelling stories that are as compelling as his own character. It would be more satisfying to see scenes where we could see how much he really love her than the easy normal routine of ‘confessing’ scene. And I would rather see a slow process of how she starts to see the real man beneath all his tough calculating facade then figures it out herself that he loves her.

It’s a kdrama. It has to have it’s main ingredient. But with the tone of this drama I would prefer the romance to be delivered cleverly instead of romantically.

I just love the fact that they added the whole gangster issue to the mix because I for one think it adds to the whole dramatic-ness this shows got goin on.
What happens if they don’t air within the year? They die. No really, they die.
I also like how there doesn’t really seem to be any forced attraction between the two leads in the first few episodes. I think this is one of the few realistic things about this show. If anything, Go-Eun and Anthony will learn to love in a much slower, realistic pace.
Too many times i see dramas try too hard to get the two leads to have some hot chemistry but i say let it just happen organically.
