If crime thrillers are your thing, you might want to put this on your list. Just know that this is only the first of 2 seasons (I KNOW. Why do they keep doing that? π)

This is giving me similar vibes as the Flower Boy series of dramas that tvN was putting out, some years back. Flower Boy Ramyun Shop was one of them.
And this one feels like it could be a younger, fresher cousin of those shows, with a pretty female lead surrounded by 3 handsome young men, who are the tenants in her guest house.

Since many of us enjoyed Moon Sang Min as Seongnam in Under The Queen's Umbrella, here's a look at his recent pictorial for W Korea.
Doesn't he look so different, in modern clothes, and without his topknot?
I do think that he wears the smolder pretty well, for his age. π
