Wonderful, witty dialog in this must see K-drama
The production values (lighting, sound) of the this 2005 K-drama aren't quite up to today's standards, and it was a bit off-putting at first. I almost back-burnered show after the first episode or two, but there was something about it that dragged me in--so much so that I did something I've never done before: I binge-watched all 16 episodes in two days.
Kim Sun Ah plays the chubby, lovelorn Kim Sam Soon and is absolutely brilliant. A *very* young (22 or 23?) Hyun Bin plays her love interest, Hyun Jin Heon. His acting chops aren't up to Kim Sun Ah's, but he carries his part well enough. And I found his round, baby-face and wild hair somewhat amusing to see in light of how strikingly handsome a man he has grown up to be. (At times it is hard to believe that it's the same man who starred in Crash Landing On You.) The supporting actors are mostly terrific. I especially loved the hilarious interactions between the Chef Lee Hyun Moo (Kwon Hae Hyo) and Sam Soon's sister Yi Young (Lee Ah Hyun).
This is a great story, well told. The dialog is sharp and witty, often laugh-out-loud funny. For fans of K-drama, this should definitely be on your "must see" list.
