At one point, Love Next Door came close to becoming one of the standoutK-dramas of the last few years, but ultimately, it fell short by whitewashing several of the parallel storylines. However, what I appreciated about this drama was its attempt to break away from the typical formulaic episode structure. And of course, Jung Hae In’s performance—he remains incredibly endearing on screen, as always. Despite lack of chemistry from the actress post 8th ep onwards, above two elements made it worth a watch.
