Pimentez Notre Amour (2024)

GIVE ME HER NOVEL " CEOS MENU " because I was a little too invested in those 18 minutes of it.....

I'll start by saying..if watch an entire drama of just her actual novel plot... nutritionist and CEO romance like hell yah Iam so in...but in just 18 minutes I was so invested in the plot and storyline I sort of wished it lasted longer....the FL and real hajun had amazing chemistry....hope to see them in something else in the future!!!

Then onto the rest of the series..it's no doubt Lee Sang Yi and Han juhyun have amazing chemistry so I enjoyed watching them in addition to the comedy scenes that were actually funny and we'll written..it was overall a great watch..light funny cute and then really funny.

all that being said I'd like to express my interest in watching an adaptation of her actual novel starting her and the actor who plays real hajun....please?

Encantadora

Fue muy agradable cuando supe que se realizaría este spin off de la serie No Gain No Love (NGNL), porque me encantó. Lo que no imaginé es que este pequeño spin off dialogara tanto con la serie madre, insertándose en un espacio coherente en el desarrollo de la misma, sin cambiar nada de la serie original. Lo encontré muy creativo y genial. Los personajes, adorables como siempre, regalándonos un pedacito más de ellos. Buenísimas las actuaciones. No te la puedes perder si te gustó la serie NGNL tanto como a mi. Después de los créditos finales del segundo y último capítulo, una linda sorpresa. No dejes de verla.

There are many hidden gems in this hidden gem.

Spice Up Our Love (2024) is a wonderful farce of a Korean Drama. You really got to get in tune with the creativity of its writer.

Spice Up Our Love is your Kdrama ticket to a special Kdrama game. In each story arc in episode one, there is a homage paid to various beloved Korean dramas and Korean Drama Actors. See how many of each you can identify as the storyline goes forth. I will get you started.

To do this however, I need to give away small details which will occurs in the action only in the first episode. So they really are not spoilers. Some may want to try to identify all the great K-Drama homages and tributes to former Korean Dramas and Stars on their own. These persons can bail out of this write-up now. You can always save the write-up in Bookmarks and revisit this article after viewing the first episode of Spice Up Our Love. If you want a little help, I will give you what I have recognized so far. This game was a lot of fun. Spice Up Our Love is a Korean drama which has Korean dramas hidden all through the storyline in episode one.

Spice Up Our Love is a spin-off from No Gain No Love (2024). The Male Lead is Lee Sang-Yi (Bloodhounds). It stars Female Lead Han Ji-Hyun (Penthouse) as a Spicy Fantasy Writer, and there is a transfer character and love interest Lee You-Jin (Do You Like Brahms?). All three are prominent characters in No Gain No Love as well. Spice Up Our Love has uniques story embeds. This will be similar to the the short guest appearance of Song Jong Ki in Queen of Tears and his five Korean dramas and movies paid homage to in the action of his arc. I may miss some. If you catch one I missed, let me know. Spice Up Our Love is spicy and sometimes a little too much so. There is occasional foul language as well. Here we go.

?The opening arc in Spice Up Our Love is clearly an homage to My Secret Romance (2017). The drunken rendezvous of the female lead with the guy who turns out to be her new boss makes this evident. She is even the nutritionist in the cafeteria of the Company in the storyline, as was the case in My Secret Romance. Within the story arc you also get an homage to No Gain No Love, where the CEO said that he never ate in the Company cafeteria before, but would start doing so.

In addition, to satisfy her boss, the nutritionist has to make the same dish over and over and the dish keeps getting rejected. That is Business Proposal. Even the Company Badges are the same as those in Business Proposal.

?Can anyone think of the Korean drama of the guy who was looking for the nostalgic taste of food he had as a Kid? I can’t remember that one. It was mentioned in this arc. Okay, I think it was the Korean Drama Chocolate.


?Seeing her Boyfriend at a restaurant with another woman and then he suggests that they break up, could this be Something in the Rain?


?The Male Secretary in the fantasy was named Kim Do Gyeom. Gyeom (겸) in Korean means something or someone who can act as two different things at the same time. The transfer character that the fantasy writer in the story had a crush on in No Gain No was a Secretary. The Secretary in Spice Up Our Love is named Secretary Kim. They may or may not be tapping into What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim?


?The fantasy writer in Spice Up Our Love gets sucked into the story she is writing. This is W: Two Worlds.


?Suddenly, everything around the fantasy writer morphs into the man from whom she is running away.

?An homage is made to Song Joong Ki on a billboard, as the writer makes her way home. It is a Korean drama thing now to have Song Joong Ki make a quest appearance in your Korean Drama. It is a little ironic that the Song Joong Ki turns into the male lead in a Korean drama which gives homage in a story arcs to memorable Korean Dramas? Is this not what Queen of Tears did for Song Joong Ki?



?Homage is paid to Cha Eun Woo (pronounced Ta Eun Nu) from True Beauty.



?The Ghada Chocolate is made by the modern day rich Chaebol Family Lotte. Lotte buildings are prominent everywhere in South Korea. This is a major Chaebol Family.

Also the owner of the Convenience store in No Gain No Love keeps popping up in Spice Up Our Love, as a Doctor, a Bus Driver, and taxi driver.

?The Korean Drama where the Webtoon characters had no control over their bodies or action for period of time. This is Extraordinary You.


?The purposeful “Leap From The Roof and being saved by your savior” scene reminded me of Tale of the Nine-Tailed.


This is all I found. End of Episode 1. What did you find?

Amazing spin off!

First of all, watch the main drama - No Gain, No love.
The writer explains her situation in real life so it’s so satisfying to watch the spin off. She really created her own perfect world in the novel.

The actors are amazing! The jokes are funny, the feeling of reading a webtoon existed lol

Loved everything about the spin off, anddddd it makes me want to rewatch the main one cos they do a lot of parodies on the novel and I love it so much!
I recommend it if you’re into a simple, funny life romance! And the novel( aka spin off) is showing a great closure for the main character.

Love love love!

Short, But Sweet

Such a great (basically) hidden gem that I’ve found tonight. I was just scrolling through Prime to find a different drama show to fall asleep to and this show popped out of nowhere, and I wouldn’t mind watching it over again. What first got me into this was reading the shows summary and watching episode 00 aka the trailer. I love the story of a lead character somehow transports to a novel, script, game, etc… and I didn’t expect how funny it would be once the writer woke up as the female lead she wrote about. The FL made me laugh a little too much when she was in her web novel, and I’m pretty sure I woke up my neighbors from all my laughing… and the ML was a great addition to bring the humor to it.
