Summer Strike
Added 2023-03-01 14:55:30 +0000 UTCLia brought up Summer Strike by saying it's a small town romance, and Im Siwan plays an introverted librarian.
SOLD.
Then I binged it in two days. This drama was so so delightful. It's like When the Camellia Blooms but with a tighter plot at 12 episodes. Small town romance with a murder mystery. Heroine leaves Seoul to find happiness and settles in a seaside town where she meets a sweet librarian with hidden trauma.
This drama was sweet (very chaste, which is fine), and gave me a lot of big feels and thinky thoughts about what happiness is and what it means to be fulfilled. Is a sufficient life enough?
Highly rec this drama. It's on Netflix US and it's a fast watch.

Saw the first episode and I already love it (partially because of the visuals and OST). I was so angry about how the manager treated the FL. I legit wrote a fanfic scene in my head where someone came and smashed that guy's stupid coffee mug. Maybe he reminded me of a really bad boss or something, IDK...
