Synopsis
This drama is about two people who each have scars from past relationships, and the way their romance with each other heals those wounds.
Ban Ji Yeon (Uhm Jung Hwa) is a single 39-year-old woman. She works as a reporter and is very enthusiastic about her work. So much so that she is often called a “witch” at work. She doesn’t believe in true love, because of her past experience when her boyfriend disappeared prior to their wedding.
Meanwhile, Yoon Dong Ha (Park Seo Joon) is a 25-year-old young man who runs a small errand center with his friend. The errand center will do pretty much anything including sending out someone dressed as Santa Claus or provide security for an idol star. He looks like a happy guy, but he lost his girlfriend by an accident.

OMG!!! This drama is so fun and awesome!!! I was hesitate to watch in the 1st place since I’m not a noona-dongsaeng fan like when I watch IHYR, I quite dislike their noona-dongsaeng romance but this drama, their chemistry just awesome!!! Kudos to Park Seo Joon, boy, u did well, I don’t see any awkward feelings at all between u and Uhm Jung Hwa ♥
Really cute, funny and the bromance scene was hell funny yet so sweet! If u want to relieve ur stress out, this drama is the best choice! 😆 Highly recommended!!
This gonna be one of my favorites for Rom-Com genre 😉

The beer kiss has to be the hottest kiss I have yet to see in a Kdrama! Wow, such great chemistry.

I loved this drama….I postponed it to watch as I was not familiar with the actors. After I hear your voice drama I didnt think I would like it…Boy was I wrong. I fell in love with the two leading actors and the entire cast starting with Soo Chul and ending with the publisher’s director!! I am also impressed with the leading actor, Park Seo Joon’s singing talent, he has a beautiful voice!! I even bought his one song from ITunes!! I am not sure why we have such a taboo across cultures a relationship between older women and younger men. I know it’s not the normal standard but if it Happens it happens. I believe certain individuals come to this life to experience certain situations and we should not judge them because they are experiencing this kind of love! True Love see each other with a different set of glasses!! I simply loved this drama!!

It’s a good drama. PSJ is a hell cute boy. I’m not that sure of the chemistry between the lead actors though. UJH is good in acting but I see something lacking in her, maybe her feature that is too obvious (went through surgeries). Sorry to say, I am not into knife thing…..
The beer kiss is hot as cotton candy kiss in That Winter the Wind Blows.

IM here becase of the so-called COuGAR KISs.. The Noona is very lucky.. HAHAHA
March 10th, 2015 at 11:21 am
I like the chemistry. Park Seo Joon is really hot. Noona is very lucky. In reality Uhm Jung Hwa is 49 while PSJ is 26. He’s like a son or a niece to her because of their age gap.

I love this drama! it’s now one of my favorite rom-com! Highly recommended!!!!!!!

An extraordinary drama, which will posess whole your heart. I cried, laugh and pray for happy ending. Their chemistry was exceptional and Park Seo Joon is now my favourite actor. Such talent and such charisma. I dont agree that he isnt handsome, quite the contrary. He is the handsomest (much more than the main stream actors) and in this drama he made me want to hug him every time I saw him. 🙂 He depicts an ideal man.
So I highly recommend to give this drama a chance if you hesitate. I currently finished ep 11 and am so hooked! I plan to watch a whole series immediately again. 😀 I am sure you would not regret watching. 🙂 I recommend also this song: Park Seo Joon – Come into My Heart. I am looking forward to his next projects and wish him best of luck. 🙂
