Hidden Gem

9.5/10 is my rating. This is a 2015 South Korean romantic comedy drama with 16, 60 minute episodes. Also known as A Pushover’s Love and a Fool’s Love.

Kang Ho-gu's (Choi Woo-shik) main fault is he is the nice guy who often gets "friend zoned."
By misreading all the signals, he is no stranger to heart break. In direct contrast there is his twin sister Kang Ho-kyung (Lee Soo-kyung) who is a love them and leave them, dating expert.
Ho-gu's equally awkward friends, Kim Tae-hee (Choi Jae-hwan) and Shin Chung-jae (Lee Si-eon) are the last people he should be asking for dating advice, yet he often does. Do Do-hee (Uee) was the bad girl/dream girl in Ho-gu's high school and is now an athlete on the Korean national swimming squad. An overall outstanding athlete, still she cannot do better than Silver in the Asian games. Ho-gu was the bullies' errand boy in high school and, like most of the boys in the school, had a crush on Do-hee who considered the godess of the school. And, like many of his classmates, he only goes to his class reunion in the off chance Do-hee will be there. To his surprise, Do-hee remebers him and, feeling nostalgic, asked Ho-guispend some time with the girl of his dreams and thinks they made a connection. They part with a promise to see each other again at Christmas. Do-hee has a secret that led her to want a reckless night, she is pregnant and the babies father wants nothing to do with her. Can this unlikely couple find love in the most unexpected place?

I was pleasantly surprised just how funny this was. There were several scenes where I was just giggling uncontrollably. I like just about everything about this cute romance. Ho gu was such a nice person and it was easy to see how people were so drawn to him. Spoiler alerts**I was surprised even after reading the synipsis that she was pregnant. Do-hee is the national dream girl and was a goddess in high school but she was not all into that. She liked the quiet, considerate boy who loved comic books as much as she did. I thought their timing of how she got pregnant and the fact that she started loving Ho gu in high school was perfect. His relationship with her baby was beyond cute. I really liked his spunky sister and her undying crush on her first love. At first I was not a fan of the arrogant and seemingly mean Byung Kang chul (Lim Seul-ong). His doubts about his sexuality and hilarious conversations in his head made him one of my favorite characters. In many Korean dramas when a parent starts beating their adult child in front of friends, the friends may take the hits for them but not actively stop them. In this one they did. I also liked when Do-hee protected Ho-gu from his sister. It was also unique that Kang chul told his parents he was an adult and it was his apartment so they needed to basically knock before entering. It was amusing that once his high school friends figured Kang chul was all bark and no bite they adorably took over his space. He was lonely without even realizing it. I loved this. Not talked about much so it is like a hidden gem. The only slight thing I did not lije was they separated for a bit as is true in so many dramas. I always fell it unnecessary. Highly recommend this heartwarming drama.
