Kim Myung Soo-Young on why 'A Hallway Couple' is an epic foodie drama
In the KBS 2TV Monday-Tuesday drama "Treat Me Carelessly" (written by Park Yoo Mi / directed by Jang Yang Ho / planned by KBS / produced by Fantasio / based on Naver webtoon "Treat Me Carelessly," written by Sun Woo), the epilogue of "corridor couple" Shin Yoon Bok (played by Kim Myung Soo) and Kim Hong Do (played by Lee Yoo Young)'s cute thumb story is leading viewers to overdose on the romance. We've summarized the epilogues that added to the romance and excitement of the 'corridor couple' romance.
The first is the epilogue of the first episode where Shin Yoon-bok and Kim Hong-do reunited after seven years, and the story behind their relationship at Seongsan Hall, where Shin Yoon-bok saved Kim Hong-do from almost falling. After witnessing her ex-boyfriend's infidelity, Kim Hong Do was drunk and unable to say hello, and only Shin Yoon Bok noticed her presence. Even though Kim Hong-do didn't recognize him, Shin Yoon-bok stood by her side as she cried, and his clumsy but warm comfort slowly calmed her down.
In particular, when Shin Yoon-bok visited Kim Hong-do again after their meeting at Seongsan-gwan, he showed up with flowers, which he prepared after remembering Kim Hong-do's words that she would stop crying if he gave her flowers at Seongsan-gwan.
Shin Yoon-bok's attentiveness shone through as he spent more time with Kim Hong-do. In episode 6, Shin Yoon Bok showed Kim Hong Do around Seongsan Village as she entered the village to fulfill Camille's (Bae Jong Ok) mission. After spending as much time as any other lovers' date, Shin Yoon Bok asked Kim Hong Do's permission to leave for a while and headed to a shoe store that he had stopped at while exploring the village.
Sin Yoon Bok noticed that Kim Hong Do was fascinated by the shoes made by Hwa Hye Jang, so he checked her foot size while she was taking a break and secretly went to buy them. Shin Yoon-bok's response to Hwa Hye-jang's question about the size of the shoes, "They're smaller than my feet," was enough to make the viewers feel very excited.
In the 9th inning, Shin Yoon-bok and Kim Hong-do finally confirmed their feelings by kissing. Shin Yoon-bok had always kept a respectful distance from Kim Hong-do, so his confession and kiss colored the weekday night with a deep afterglow.
Sin Yoon-bok's straightforward confession came from a place of conviction. In the epilogue of the 9th episode, Shin Yoon-bok thought that the degree of marriage should be considered when kissing. In the epilogue, Shin Yoon-bok disagreed with Kim Hong-hak (Han Ki-chan) over the webtoon's protagonist's line about going their separate ways after kissing, and thought that locking lips was the same as locking hearts. It was a scene that showed how Shin Yoon-bok confessed to Kim Hong-do with his heart and determination, and it was a glimpse of Shin Yoon-bok's love, not only caring for Kim Hong-do sincerely but also envisioning a future with her.
Similarly, Shin Yoon-bok has been by Kim Hong-do's side, building up his love for her even when she doesn't remember it, even when she isn't around. The memories that only Shin Yoon Bok keeps, which Kim Hong Do will never know, add romance and excitement to the story of the hallway couple, so expectations are rising for the romance that the two will show in the remaining episodes.
KBS 2TV Monday-Tuesday drama "Treat Me Carelessly" airs every Monday and Tuesday night at 10:10 p.m. (End)
