  1. I’m hooked but not surprise. Same director that made OSN and Something in the rain which were amazing. My favorite scene was the last with Seo and Joon XD, it was hilarious. She more he was answering her the more shocked she was XD. We have all the ingredients for a wonderfull romance but most importantly the troubles and challenges that will come with it XD. She’s older than him, she used to teach him, they will be working in the same place and they are in the education field : the scandal is inevitable. Joon parents will probably go against their relationship ( the father more than the mother imo ). There’s also two people am wary of. One of Seo male co worker, the dude who was against her going to the school for the question thing and the girl who took the test with Joon. I don’t like her character. Overall am really excited about this drama. One more thing , i like Joon character. He’s got confidence in himself and he sounds reliable. He almost sound cocky but in the right way XD. In OSN and SITR the ML was also reliable and confident. Guess you need that when you want to date a woman older than you

  2. Want to watch it for Jung Ryeo Won. She is an excellent actress but noona romance isn’t my cup of team.
    Will wait for a few episodes to see the direction it’s going.

  3. It’s going to be fun watching her readjusting her impression about him. She’ll keep trying to make it like their old student/teacher ways, and he’ll just keep resetting the boundaries 😄

    Nice start!

  4. This was the most ridiculous opening ever where an academy teacher goes to fight for a question to a regular teacher… I assume both sides didn’t have anything to do better…

  5. Com esse começo mostra que ele quer ganhar “creditos” com ela, se tornando no mesmo “nivel” e ate no mesmo lugar, não sei se é para demonstrar que não é o mesmo estudante, mas agora um “homem”. Só sei que o drama girará nesse sentido e provavel ela “perder o sentido de ensinar/dar aulas ou perder o emprego por escandalo, do tipo (“namora um ex-aluno, “será que ela não deu em cima dele quando era aluno”). Espero que não siga isso e que seja diferente, tipo dois adultos, que terão um vida amorosa, e tem amor por ensinar outros etc.

  6. HyeJin: “I want you to rethink this.”
    JunHo: “I’ve thought about it enough.”
    HyeJin: “This job robs you of your evenings and weekends […] You can say goodbye to a lovelife..”
    **sudden silence with very direct stare**

    JunHo: “That truly… is none of your business.”
    Me: “…for now.”

  7. I guess like brother like sister. Not wi ha joon having a noona romance his character in something in the rain would be against. even the mom and best friend are in this drama lol

  8. I’m already enjoying this drama; the first one isn’t complicated or anything, and can we talk about fl fashion style

  9. I was skeptical at first, but I ended up glued to the screen. Both main leads are captivating and the vibe is so reminiscent of One Spring Night and Heard It Through the Grapevine. I don’t know what to expect with the plot, but crossing my fingers it will stay good and not too angsty. Rooting for both Jeong Ryeo Won and Wi Ha Joon

  10. Ha Joon has the right aura for a noona romance and I can see the chemistry is there as well. I really enjoyed the first episode. Since this director has directed some of my favourite dramas, I’m hopeful this’ll stay good till the end.

  11. I was going to say that umbrella scene at the intro reminds me of ‘Something in the rain’. Turns out it’s the same director. He also directed ‘One spring night’. Both of these dramas are my favorites so I have high hopes.

  12. I watched Jeong Ryeo Won in ‘Witch’s court’ which I found very funny and I liked her acting, needless to say that I’m excited for this drama. And who doesn’t like Wi Ha Joon

  13. I have seen a lot of kdramas and most of them have very good posters. But I don’t know why I just feel connected when I see the poster of this drama. There’s this feeling I can’t describe, each and everything about the poster is soo beautiful. The empty footpath, that big tree in the background with a blur effect, the way Wi ha joon is looking at Jung ryeo won, her childlike expression, their attires, those cool tone LED streetlights, that sense of calmness.
    I soo want to be in that spot with my favorite person. It’s going to be a beautiful journey filled with lots of emotions ❤️.

  14. Just completed One spring night and I am soo excited and ready for, The midnight romance in hagwon.
    This is me right now 😂
