The cast

• Male lead, Kim Jin Hyuk, acted by Park Bo Gum
• Female lead, Cha Soon Hyun, acted by Song Hye Kyo

The drama trailers and the other synopsis I’ve read did not indicate that it will be funny or have any comedy component. However, there are!

EPISODE 1

Some background stories of mainly Cha Soon Hyun’s character that shows and how she end up in Cuba where she met the male lead, Kim Jin Hyuk.

It is really cool to meet someone that speaks your language in a foreign land. Someone that have no idea of your background and will not judge you but just appreciate your company.

Soon Hyun is a lady with loads of baggage and when she was lost in Cuba and belongings are stolen, she became vulnerable yet willing to try more things she want to but can’t do normally.

EPISODE 2

Out of sheer curiosity, Soon Hyun asked for Jin Hyuk resume and found out where he usually go and other bio. Wanting to take a breathe from work, she went to the playground hideout that he usually goes.

When Jin Hyuk got drunk after the team welcome dinner for him and Soo Hyun spotted him in the bus stop and offer to send him back as a form of gratitude for his help in Cuba.

She invited Jin Hyuk for a ramen date in one of the rest stops which eventually got captured by an arranged paparazzi and news are all over Korea the very next day.

EPISODE 3

Even her personal chauffeur knows who can make her smile and decided to make a business trip down with Jin Hyuk to keep her company for a day.

The ending of the third episode leads to a breathtaking moment.

Episode 4

I mean, hands down to the scriptwriter and director. The ending of the episode really makes me look forward to the next. But I have to wait for another 6 days! *my heart*

Scream and wait for the next episode (5) on Thursday!

Catch it on Viu TV!
