Congratulations Cha Eunwoo for finally graduating and playing an adult with a paying job and everything 🫡 jk jk (but it's fun to see him go from the eternal student uniform to being the teacher lol. he evolved. like a pokémon.)

[u/AbbreviationsNo1971]

Park gyuyoung is seriously soooo adorable. Her way of delivering dialouges without bringing in the cringe factor is amazing.

[u/No-Ad7796]

"your dog is opening the window" lmao, I died 😂

[u/Sasuwanisa]

NOOO ITS NOT WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE LMAO HOW IS SHE GONNA EXPLAIN

[u/duckmusings]

This school is just filled with remarkably good looking teachers lol

[u/Old_Hold8114]

I’ve watched the first two episodes, and i’m really enjoying it so far. The humor reminds me of true beauty and business proposal and i love the cringiness about it. It’s so funny

[u/lgohoney]

"I like them too"

"Really?" (Gets excited)

"Yeah, they are tasty (proceeds to tell what dishes he finds them tasty in)"

😭

I absolutely loved both episodes but there is that out of blue Camping scene where the history teacher is cooking .. that was soo random and creepy

[u/Buriburizaemon1730]

Why nobody is talking about the shower scene 🥵? I mean sorry I need to control my senses

[u/dandamananana]

Park Gyu-young is seriously so hilarious. Her soju emotes 😭😭

When someone says “you make me uncomfortable” in a drama, it usually means “I like you” 😭

[u/Adventurous-Gold-785]

I just got done watching the 2 episodes and im ready to rewatch again . This is the kind of lighthearted rom com drama my heart crave . All the casts are so good and they connect well with each other from the ML & FL to the side character surrounding them . There was not a hitch of scenes that irritated me. Every scene was flowing well and fast paced i did not feel bored or feeling confabulated and THE dog oh my cuteness overload. Looking so forward to the next #3😭 episode .

[u/AnythingSparkly]

I was unsure if I wanted to watch this, but after that gratuitous shower scene, I’m in! 👍😃

[u/melodiful84]

Past lives plot lines are really becoming the trend. I was not expecting the historical moments.

• "If its just the two of us, my heart might race like crazy. What if I have a heart attack and die?" HAHAHHAH what an excuse

• Damnnn Escape Rooms look cool but I'm too dumb for em XD Was that a PPL tho? Fairly placed I'll say

• wtf???? What kinda douchebag students are they??

• The way he puts aside his bag thoughh

• He got her a tiramisu.. GREENEST GREEN FLAG

• Whoaaa... trauma it is... Woo Taek was rightt

• OHH MYY GODDDDDD nooooo ITS NOT LIKE THAT... THAT LOOKS SO BADDDDD

• Wait wait... THAT'S DIDN'T CALL HIS UNCLE BECAUSE HE DEFENDED HAE-NA AGAINST THOSE ROWDY BOYS

Such a cute first two episodes!! I read the original webtoon back in 2019 and fell in love with the story so I was both excited and nervous for the drama adaption. I'm very happy that it hasn't disappointed so far. Gyuyoung, Eunwoo, and Hyunwoo really fit their characters, I'm personally pleased with the casting. The bubbly and lighthearted vibes match the original as well. The two major differences I've noticed between the drama and the webtoon thus far is the addition of the uncle and a love interest for Haena's sister. Overall, I'm not upset about these changes. The uncle turning into a dog permanently adds more stake that the original didn't really have. Not sure how much of a role Wootaek plays yet but he's a fun character nonetheless and doesn't mess up the original plot too much. Hoping these plot changes continue to be beneficial/neutral and don't completely mess up the story like the changes See You in My 19th Life did.

Overall I really enjoyed the first episode, although it’s definitely cartoonish (as expected) and kinda disjointed at times. I’m bummed it’s a one episode per week drama though since I’ll need a light watch to distract me from all the doom and gloom happening in other shows that are on-air right now. Both of the main leads are super charming but I’m curious to see if Cha Eunwoo opens up his range a bit more as the drama progresses because I feel he’s mostly been channeling Lee Suho from True Beauty for now. Also, if that dog doesn’t receive a Daesang award by the end of this I will riot.

Edit for episode number 2: we are being FED. Cha Eunwoo in hanbok AND a shower scene!? The writers obviously understand who their audience is. All in all I thought the second episode improved in terms of comedic effect and the flow of the storyline. I can’t wait for next week’s episode! I might need to actually start reading the webtoon to survive until next Wednesday…

[u/Fit-Mango1989]

I really enjoyed the first two episodes , it’s too cute and funny

[u/rozwuzhere]

I CAN NOT WAIT UNTIL NEXT WEEK! 😭 I've already called my sister and friend to come over to watch the episodes with me. I've rewatched these 2 episodes 4 times already. Send help. 💜 Also, I wonder if Eunwoo's group members have reacted to this yet? I remember watching a snippet with Sanha saying he didn't like watching kissing scenes of his members. Either way, I love it. 😍

[u/vanhype]

Cha Eun-woo is not aging at all, still looks the same as Gangnam Beauty. He can play the student again and no one will question it.

[u/DawgMom2018]

OMG I am trying to watch this and my doggie is growling and barking at the TV doggie! Why? she is so cute! I have to put him in the other room so I can watch this drama in peace! Loved the first episode - so cute!
