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.

(Many thanks to
