The romance drama surrounds the life of a woman in her mid-30s who hasn't found true love yet. All her past relationships ended terribly. Due to circumstances, she reunites with the younger brother of her best friend who is now all grown up. He was always a little kid for her but as she sees him as a fully functioning adult, sparks fly between the two. Though they love each other, a larger problem and hesitation lies between the families. Seo Joon Hee lights up Yoon Jin Ah's life and their romance is passionate yet fun-loving.
Ahn Joon Ho in D.P.
The drama is adapted from the webtoon D.P Dog Day by Kim Bo Tong. D.P. explores the life of a Private soldier Jun Ho and how he navigates his youth in the military. He becomes a member of the military defector arrest team. Things become hard and struggles get real once he joins this squad. The soldiers dress up as civilians and go undercover to catch other soldiers who are missing and have gone AWOL. D.P. shows the realistic and humanistic side of these people. Jung Hae In plays the cool officer Ahn Joon Ho. The drama is directed by Han Jun Hee who also created Coin Locker Girl.
Yoo Ji Ho in One Spring Night
This is an underrated piece starring Jung Hae In. Leading opposite to Han Ji Min, this drama is a mature romance. While it has all the heart-fluttering moments that are present in a K-drama, it is also slow-paced and realistic. Han Ji Min plays a librarian and Jung Hye In plays a single father who is a pharmacist. He falls for the librarian and asks her to date him. She has her concerns about the man but also slowly ends up falling for him. This beautiful piece shows how two adults navigate the challenges of family amongst other things to make their relationship work. It is another masterpiece by the director of One Spring Night. It is also accompanied by a splendid playlist of soundtracks.
Im Soo Ho in Snowdrop
Jung Hae In played the role of Im Soo Ho. He poses as a university student who is back in South Korea from Germany. This character has a lot of secrets and turns out to be a North Korean spy. He along with his other two members takes the women's hostel as hostage and asks the government to fulfill their demands. The drama also focuses on the chemistry between the two main leads. The character is a spy on a mission but as he slowly falls for Eun Young Ro, he is visibly a little distracted. Even as he takes people hostage, he has a soft spot for her and takes care of her, to his members' dismay.
