I watched this because some viewers said it’s good & entertaining but OMG, I didn’t feel entertained at all..
I hate that chef, always throw his anger all the times..
I hate GHJ’s acting here even though I love her in Biscuit teacher..I just can’t stand seeing her hair..come on, working in the kitchen with messy hair like that, it’s unprofessional!
I can’t believe this drama got high ratings & well praised..
