Ooh. For some reason, I hadn't expected there to be a potential loveline in this show (maybe coz Jo Jung Suk looked so serious in the earlier promos?), but he's smoldering at Shin Se Kyung in this trailer and now I'm decidedly intrigued. I'm bumping it up my list, you guys. 😁

However, with the tragic news of Lee Sun Gyun's passing, my b...
