Summary and comments by fellow addict J. Lim
from Malaysia (caution: contains spoilers):
Kyung-min and Jung-eun are totally different in
character. Due to certain circumstances, Kyung-min is
taken in by Jung-eun as her "tenant" although Korean
society does not look too kindly on boys and girls
staying under the same roof. In this series, we get to
see how Jung-eun tries her utmost best to change
Kyung-min into a better person as she loves him. His
self-centered, lazy and spoiled traits compared to
Jung-eun's honest, hard-working and disciplined ways
are very hilarious and heart-touching and at times
exasperating.
It is heartening to see yet another series with a happy
ending!!
Many thanks to MBC for selecting such a good cast
and story. This must be one of the best miniseries I
have ever watched. It's full of laughter and tears. We
hope to see many more of these dramas/comedies.
