Will Jung So Min finally find out about Jung Hae In’s feelings for her on the next episode of “Love Next Door”?

“Love Next Door” is a new tvN romantic comedy by the director and writer of the hit drama “Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha.” Jung So Min stars as Bae Seok Ryu, a woman who tries to reboot her troubled life after it goes awry. Jung Hae In plays her mom’s friend’s son Choi Seung Hyo, whom she considers a dark and embarrassing chapter in her life.

On the previous episode of “Love Next Door,” Choi Seung Hyo received a surprise visit from Jang Tae Hee (Seo Ji Hye), his ex-girlfriend from college, who was seeking his help. After seeing him with Bae Seok Ryu, Jang Tae Hee keenly observed that “whenever Seok Ryu smiles, you automatically smile too,” forcing him to come to terms with his feelings.

In newly released stills from the drama’s next episode, Seok Ryu stops by Seung Hyo’s room in the morning and accidentally stumbles upon the hidden letter in which he confessed his feelings for her.

When Seung Hyo returns to his room after showering, he freezes in his tracks when he sees the letter in Seok Ryu’s hands. Meanwhile, Seok Ryu stares awkwardly at Seung Hyo with a shocked expression, piquing curiosity as to whether she has read the letter and learned his long-kept secret.

They went on to tease, “Please stay tuned to find out if Choi Seung Hyo’s unconveyed feelings will be able to reach Bae Seok Ryu.”

Team Dramabeans: What we’re watching (August 31, 2024)

by DB Staff

 

So, what are we all watching this week?

 

What kept you reaching for more (or agonizing when there was no more), and what made you want to throw your remote through the screen? Time to weigh in…

Love Next Door: I wasn’t thrilled by every turn we took this week, but I like our leading couple so much — and am so invested in their individual journeys — that I can overlook the parts I’m less excited about long enough to get back to the good stuff. I did catch myself tuning out a few times, though, only to be drawn back in by the next big satisfying emotional moment.

I'm just starting to watch this; I've made it to episode four. What are your thoughts on this?

It is a really nice drama.  Well-made.  Does not seem to be too complicated a story.  Serious chemistry between the leads.  Enough humor too, along with some good romance.  I am really enjoying the drama.  Hopefully you are liking it, to continue watching.

20240902043727_love-next-door-making-of.Watch: Jung Hae In And Jung So Min Can't Stop Teasing Each Other Behind The Scenes Of "Love Next Door"

Sep 02, 2024

tvN’s “Love Next Door” has unveiled a new making-of video from episodes 5 and 6!

“Love Next Door” is a new tvN romantic comedy by the director and writer of the hit drama “Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha.” Jung So Min stars as Bae Seok Ryu, a woman who tries to reboot her troubled life after it goes awry. Jung Hae In plays her mom’s friend’s son Choi Seung Hyo, whom she considers a dark and embarrassing chapter in her life.

Spoilers

The newly released making-of video showcases the fun and laughter that unfold during filming. In one scene, where Seok Ryu is supposed to hug Seung Hyo in her dorm, Jung Hae In humorously pretends to choke as Jung So Min wraps her arms around him. Later, as Seung Hyo tenderly cares for Seok Ryu while she sleeps, Jung So Min’s bouncing hair becomes a source of amusement. Jung Hae In can’t help but comment, “Your hair has homing instinct,” further enhancing the lighthearted atmosphere.

The video also captures a morning scene where Seok Ryu reacts to receiving a message from her boyfriend. Jung So Min practices her cheeky response and distinctively cute gesture, which leads Jung Hae In to joke, “It’s really annoying, this behavior and pose,” drawing laughs from the crew.

Another highlight features Seok Ryu cooking for Seung Hyo. The pair engages in playful banter about which poses would best suit Seok Ryu in the scene.

In a humorous mix-up scene, Seok Ryu mistakenly wakes Seung Hyo instead of her brother, leading to a playful exchange where Jung So Min teases Jung Hae In for messing up his lines by calling her character’s brother by the wrong name of Yong Jin instead of Dong Jin (N.Flying’s Lee Seung Hyub).

The behind-the-scenes video is filled with these charming moments, adding an extra layer of enjoyment for fans of the show.

Jung So Min And Jung Hae In Are All Smiles In Poster For “Love Next Door”

Jung So Min And Jung Hae In Are All Smiles In Poster For “Love Next Door”

tvN has dropped a new poster for “Love Next Door”!

 

“Love Next Door” is a romantic comedy by the director and writer of the hit drama “Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha.” Jung So Min stars as Bae Seok Ryu, a woman who tries to reboot her troubled life after it goes awry. Jung Hae In plays her mom’s friend’s son Choi Seung Hyo, whom she considers a dark and embarrassing chapter in her life.

Spoilers

In the last broadcast of “Love Next Door,” Bae Seok Ryu discovered that Choi Seung Hyo has had feelings for her for a long time. She found the letter in his room that had been hidden in a time capsule. As she read the letter, which expressed unspoken emotions, she appeared flustered. However, Choi Seung Hyo brushed it off as a trivial joke. After that day, Choi Seung Hyo began to distance himself from Bae Seok Ryu.

 

Uncomfortable with the awkwardness and not knowing the reason for it, Bae Seok Ryu sought him out again. When he confessed, “Back then and even now, you drive me crazy,” she sensed that his feelings for her were more than just friendship.

The newly released poster hints at a shift in the relationship between Choi Seung Hyo and Bae Seok Ryu. The poster shows Bae Seok Ryu leaning on Choi Seung Hyo’s back and gently holding his wrist, creating a sweet, heart-fluttering atmosphere like a new couple in the early stages of dating.

 

Additionally, the caption quoting Bae Seok Ryu’s line, “The only thing I didn’t know was your ‘first love,'” draws attention. It raises viewers’ anticipation about Bae Seok Ryu’s next move now that she knows about Choi Seung Hyo’s feelings and whether they can go from being best friends to becoming lovers.

 

love-next-door-1.jpg

 

The production team shared, “The romance between Choi Seung Hyo and Bae Seok Ryu, who are wavering between love and friendship, will officially begin. Watch how Choi Seung Hyo’s long-standing unrequited love comes to an end and how their relationship evolves beyond friendship.”

 

Meanwhile, in the upcoming 7th episode, a new twist will appear in the relationship between Choi Seung Hyo and Bae Seok Ryu. Bae Seok Ryu’s ex-fiancé Song Hyun Joon (Han Jun Woo) will visit the Hyeryeong neighborhood after coming back from abroad. Additionally, Choi Seung Hyo’s ex-girlfriend Jang Tae Hee (Seo Ji Hye) still has lingering feelings, further complicating their relationships. It remains to be seen if Choi Seung Hyo will finally confess his true feelings and resolve the situation.

 

The next episode of “Love Next Door” airs on September 7 at 9:20 p.m. KST.

Love Next Door: Episodes 5-6

by missvictrix

 

Lost dreams are now found, but so are ten-year-old (almost) love letters. While our heroine might be on a high of finding and pursuing her dreams at last, our hero is struggling with his feelings and trying to protect himself in the wake of them. But if we know anything about our heroine it’s that she’s good at bulldozing her way past obstacles.

 
EPISODES 5-6

 

Now we’re talking! With the Gripe Greip plot arc out of the way and our characters behaving fully in-character again, our drama finally starts to shine. These were two delightful episodes, and the emotional core of the show is now feeling strong enough to carry the weight of the patchwork-y plot (and I say that in the kindest sense). Let’s jump in!

Poor Seung-hyo is having a hard time dealing with his feelings (aka, acknowledging that he still likes Seok-ryu), so his knee-jerk reaction is to push her away. He’s suddenly flustered around her after last week’s hugfest, and tries to push her out of Atelier In ASAP. But whose arms are those wrapping around Seung-hyo from behind? Oh, it’s just his ex-girlfriend JANG TAE-HEE, the gorgeous artisan who wants him back (and a super fun guest appearance from my girl Seo Ji-hye).

What’s most funny about this ex-girlfriend plot arc is that Seung-hyo obviously has a type, because Tae-hee and Seok-ryu get on like peanut butter and jelly. And — thank the drama gods — Tae-hee soon faces the fact that a) Seung-hyo is not interested in rekindling with her and b) he is literally a beacon of light and happiness when he’s around Seok-ryu. Take that, overplayed ex-girlfriend trope! By the end of the week’s episodes, Tae-hee is on the SxS ship as much as we are.

 

But Tae-hee and her story arc aren’t just to push the romance ahead: they’re also to help Seok-ryu realize the dream that’s been inside her all along. First, following the Namsan lock incident where Seung-hyo helped Seok-ryu let go of past trauma, she cooks an amazing hotpot. When we lingered on her cooking I was just glad to finally have a female lead in a K-drama that can cook. But on closer glance, I was getting Chocolate vibes with the level of care that was taken in showing the food prepping and eating. Why, you might wonder, are we watching Seok-ryu cook and everyone enjoy her food?
The answer becomes clear later in the episode.

It turns out that Tae-hee wants to partner with Seung-hyo for a work project, and the Atelier In folks + Seok-ryu wind up on a field trip of sorts. At Tae-hee’s workshop, the grounds are filled with onggi and all sorts of fermenting ingredients therein. Seok-ryu is over the moon with this experience, asking questions galore, lapping it all up, and then later making kalguksu for everyone with the fresh doenjang and other ingredients. It was while everyone was fussing over the soup (and my mouth was watering) that I realized Seok-ryu’s dream before she realized it herself.

 

During the same outing, the flusteredness continues between Seung-hyo and Seok-ryu. As if the hug weren’t enough, he spent an evening drinking with her dad (lol) and fell asleep in Dong-jin’s bed. So imagine Seung-hyo’s shock when he’s being pounded awake by Seok-ryu (thinking it’s her little bro) — and in the scuffle he winds up half naked on top of her (of course). And then, in trying to extricate himself, he sprains his toe. LOL!

With that on his mind — and Seok-ryu’s infectious happiness over aged soy sauce and all things related to Korea cooking traditions — there are practically hearts in his eyes. Tae-hee sees it, we see it, Mo-eum’s seen it since high school — in fact, everyone probably sees it except for Seok-ryu (for now). In the meantime, the two share a moonlit moment in a field of earthenware pots, and it’s here that Seung-hyo finally accepts that he’s in love with her.

 

But love is not that easy, especially when you’re childhood friends and you’ve kept the roaring flame you’ve had going under wraps for so long (don’t ask me how). And when you’ve expressly overheard her say she’s still in love with her ex. So, Seung-hyo doubles down on his avoidance to the point where it really starts to drive a wedge between them. At first, Seok-ryu thinks he’s mad or upset at her; meanwhile, she just wants her partner in crime to rejoice in the cooking certification she’s (secretly) going for.

Once Seok-ryu realized she loves to cook, it’s like the plot universe opens up all this evidence that it’s the right path for her, from the fact that Mo-eum testifies she’s always loved cooking to the fond memories of watching her dad in their pokey tteokbokki shop.

Speaking of that shop, though — and Dad — drama is on the horizon. Seung-hyo accidentally sees Seok-ryu’s dad leaving a nightclub with a woman hanging all over him, and after this sight he waits for Dad to get home. They have a chat, which we are not privy to yet, but not long after Mom starts piecing things together too. Her husband has been out every night, there are weird receipts around, and she expects the worst and confronts him straight away. (This has gotta be the fastest moving plotline in history.)

Jung Hae In And Jung So Min Awkwardly Run Into Each Other With Their Exes On "Love Next Door"

by E Cha

Get ready for an uncomfortable encounter on the next episode of “Love Next Door”!

“Love Next Door” is a new tvN romantic comedy by the director and writer of the hit drama “Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha.” Jung So Min stars as Bae Seok Ryu, a woman who tries to reboot her troubled life after it goes awry. Jung Hae In plays her mom’s friend’s son Choi Seung Hyo, whom she considers a dark and embarrassing chapter in her life.

Spoilers

On the previous episode of “Love Next Door,” Bae Seok Ryu finally learned that Choi Seung Hyo had been secretly harboring feelings for her since their grade school days.

In newly released stills from the drama’s next episode, the two childhood friends accidentally run into each other while meeting up with their respective exes at the same restaurant. Choi Seung Hyo and his ex-girlfriend Jang Tae Hee (Seo Ji Hye) sit at one table, while Bae Seok Ryu and her ex-fiancé Song Hyun Joon (Han Jun Woo) awkwardly sit at a different table nearby.

Notably, both Choi Seung Hyo and Bae Seok Ryu seem more focused on what’s happening at the table next to them than talking to the ex sitting in front of them. Amidst the obvious tension between the two friends, it remains to be seen how Jang Tae Hee and Song Hyun Joon will react to this unfortunate run-in.

Jung Hae In Comforts Jung So Min On A Romantic Late-Night Stroll In "Love Next Door"

Is romance finally blossoming on tvN’s “Love Next Door”?

 

“Love Next Door” is a romantic comedy by the director and writer of the hit drama “Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha.” Jung So Min stars as Bae Seok Ryu, a woman who tries to reboot her troubled life after it goes awry. Jung Hae In plays her mom’s friend’s son Choi Seung Hyo, whom she considers a dark and embarrassing chapter in her life.

Spoilers

On the previous episode of “Love Next Door,” Choi Seung Hyo became jealous over the arrival of Bae Seok Ryu’s ex-fiancé Song Hyun Joon (Han Jun Woo). Realizing that he couldn’t hide his feelings any longer, Choi Seung Hyo rushed to Bae Seok Ryu to confess how he felt.

 

In newly released stills from the drama’s upcoming episode, Choi Seung Hyo comforts a melancholy Bae Seok Ryu during a late-night walk. Notably, the atmosphere and the look in Choi Seung Hyo’s eyes seem to have changed since his confession, raising the question of whether Bae Seok Ryu will return his long-hidden feelings.

In an attempt to show off for Jung Mo Eum, Kang Dan Ho goes overboard and starts doing push-ups on the ground—leaving her at a loss for how to react.

Team Dramabeans: What we’re watching (September 7, 2024)

by DB Staff

 

So, what are we all watching this week?

 

What kept you reaching for more (or agonizing when there was no more), and what made you want to throw your remote through the screen? Time to weigh in…

 

 

mistyisles

Love Next Door: This show gives me whiplash, and not always in a good way. The parts I like, I really like — Seok-ryu’s journey to find and embrace her dream, for example. But other parts just don’t do it for me, and I find myself zoning out and waiting for it to get good again (also I’m getting pretty tired of people physically hitting each other, especially after a certain father’s very emotional speech about it). That said, the good still outweighs the bad for now, so even though I watched this week’s episodes in two halves each across four days, I couldn’t resist coming back to it in the end — and hey, maybe that’s what matters most anyway.

 

 

DaebakGrits

Love Next Door: The bickering. I love the bickering. And Seung-hyo’s longing looks that totally betray how he feels — except to the oblivious Seok-ryu.
