Good romance with interesting plot
Park Kae-in (Son Ye-jin) is kind, impulsive, and clumsy. Architect Jeon Jin-ho (Lee Min-ho) pretends to be gay so that Kae-in will accept him as her roommate in the house he hopes to redesign.Park Kae-in (Son Ye-jin) is the daughter of a famous architect and is an aspiring furniture designer. She trusts quickly and completely. She grew up without a mother and does not spend a lot of time on her personal appearance. Romance has been an issue for her as her sweet nature is compelling but her lack of feminine whiles make maintaining a relationship more challenging. Jeon Jin-ho (Lee Min-ho) is an architect with a struggling business who desperately needs to win a big bid over a major competitor to keep his business afloat. His competitor does not play the game cleanly so he knows he has to go above and beyond in providing the perfect proposal to meet the desire of the customer that could be his saving grace. He finds out Park Kae-in so happens to live in a house designed by her father that represents a majority of the design elements the client is after. The problem is few have ever been given access to see the inside of the house in any detail. A series of comical misunderstandings leads Kae-in to think that Jin-ho is gay. Some impulsive and poor financial decisions have led her to be in the market for a renter and Jin-ho sees that as an opportunity to get a closer look at the architecture of the design that is so desired by the potential client. As a young woman living alone (her father is abroad), she is unlikely to let a single male move in. However, thinking Jin-ho is gay, she does not feel threatened when he proposes to rent from her. He does not say he is but lies by omission letting Kae-in believe he has no interest in women.
I really liked the development and evolution of the characters. The plot was predictable but in a good way, the complexity resided in the evolution of the character's personalities. Good romances to me paint the picture of how each has something that completes or compliments the other.
score 8/10
