Looks like the novellist gifted the lead actresses with a copy of the book that this drama is based on. The cover is so cute! I am looking forward to this as a fun, summery and healing watch.

Me too! And it will be a nice quick 8-episode show. But it's probably at the same time as Hospital Playlist so I don't know if I will be give this one energy. Haha!

He is the guy who had a crush on Park Shin Hye’s character in Sisyphus.  Aiyo , didn’t you have a crush on him then ? Looks like this crush didn’t make a lasting impression 

He’s going to be in Nevertheless too.

I didn't record him in my oppa tracker 😆 So I don't know his name lols

[1217akkum4]

Jihyun's getting prettier. She looks gorgeous. I got hotel del Luna vibes here.

[JeannieBean]

Yes I'm getting those vibes too. I can't wait for this. I saw the trailer it looks creepy. 😆

[JenL]

This is looking good!

Can't believe it's only 8 episodes?! What kind of a drama is this?

 

But sometimes the short ones are the best ones. Some of my favourite dramas are only 10-13 episodes. The story-telling is more concise and there's no filler episodes.

Yes. I like Nam Ji Hyun and very happy to see Song Ji Hyo in such an unusual role 

[SilverMoonTea]

@JenLI'm here to check that cutie oppa, that I like, but I don't know his name and forget that he appeared before in Sisyphus lols. Good that it's short too. Recently my dropping drama rate become high again 😅
