Lee Joon-ho (이준호) plays Seo Poong, a top chef that was unceremoniously fired and chooses to get his revenge by making a tiny tiny tiny Chinese spot into a tier one restaurant.
Jung Ryeo-won (정려원) plays Dan Sae-woo a lovely equestrian loving delightful lady who eats her first ever bowl of jajangmyun one day and loses her mind. This may explain why she wants to hag around this hole in the wall Chinese spot and becomes the love interest of our two lead men.

Oh!! Excited. I love all 3. Especially JH. Hope someone picks up this drama and I don’t have to run around finding episodes 🙂
Me too! I feel like it will be picked up since it is a romance. Dramafever and Viki are pretty heavy on the romances lately.
It does look like Viki picked it up. But still not sure if its standard for basic subscribers or only for Plus subscribers.
Recently, most of their good shows end up only for Plus, making it hard on people who have to pay multiple subscriptions to many sites to get decent content across the spectrum. fingers crossed!
Oh my goodness, tell me about it! We have Viki, Dramafever, Netflix, and Amazon Prime memberships. Debating getting a Kocowa or not.
LOL!! so funny. I was just checking Kocowa recently but even they dont have ‘Suits’. I have the same set of subscriptions. if I add one more to it, there is no way I can explain my obsession to my husband (or even to myself) ; )
I like DF because of offline content (works great during commute), but recently they are quite low on new content. Though am glad they got ‘A Poem a day’ (check it out when you have time, its quite a pleasant watch)
I will! I have heard really good things about it. It looks like it will fit my recent drama mood, too.
It’s SBS, so that means Kokowa, right? It’ll be on Viki- but will it be free or the upgraded subscription, is the question.
I want a light rom-com, too! It’s time for the spring-summer lovin’!
That will be nice if Viki picks it up. It’s SBS so international viewers should be able to watch it live streaming straight from their site.
