Mom’s Friend’s Son (2024)

Love Next Door , a beautiful love lore❤️

Sorry but any combinations of the 26 letters won't be able to help me express my love for this drama and the cast. I actually need a better phrase than I love you cuz I actually love love you Choisseung and SeokRyu❤️!

This drama is like Bibimbap ( Korean mixed rice dish). How the right blending of ingredients and perfect amount of seasoning takes the dish from a miss to a HIT similarly the intertwining of different genres in a decent amount made this drama genuinely a HIT!

Equal portions of angst , slice of life , slow burn , romance and comedy made Love Next Door a truly heartwarming lovesome project that even though its ended , will forever live in my mind rent free?! The writer took the most common plots and made it look so relatable all while presenting it in a beautiful tear-jerking satisfying manner. A drama that makes your heart flutter all while giving you some important life lessons isn't that what you call a perfect drama?! The characters where flawed and thats what I loved about them. Its crazy how often I found myself fit in the character's shoes that truly made me understand their complexities and appreciate the simplicities of life?.

But the actors that truly brought the script to life are to be applauded more. Each actor brought their top tier performance which made it feel so real that one minute am ugly crying and other minute am laughing like a silly goose ?. The cast's chemistry interlaced with each other quite perfectly and that made the drama shine even more.

Thankyou for accompanying me the last 8 weeks. Never have I felt this much attachment to a drama ever before and trust me as I state this for I have watched nearly 300 dramas over the years and yet Love Next Door managed to secure a permanent room in my heart?❤️!

DEF MUST WATCH perfect balance of melodrama and romcom, The actors chemistry carried this drama

so, i just finished the last chapter and here are my thoughts.
chemistry of absolutely all the couples on the show: 10/10 (ofc, the main couple is superior).
Story and direction: 8/10, the story is certainly not innovative but it is well executed, important themes are touched upon and you can be quite familiar with the dynamics of a Korean family, the problems that there are in real life, good slice of life.
My biggest criticism will be that when the main couple is official, the fl feelings are somewhat ignored, we don't know much about what she thinks or feels, they focus more on the ml being a loser in love,Many times the FL is seen as someone cold who doesn't care that much about the ML (you'll notice in the small details) it would have been nice if they showed more from her POV not only through the diary they published on social media showing her thoughts, a casual viewer will never know about that, I think we can def only see way more of her in the last 2 chapters.
The direction was very well done, the shots are very good and aesthetic and focus on small details, there are many references to past situations between the protagonists, The way they played with the chapter names was very creative, they gave them a good meaning (wordplay in Korean, hard to keep in translation, Netflix really did a terrible job, they missed a lot of details because of this).
characters: I think the characters are REAL, there is not only black and white, there are grays, and that is something that I think many of you do not know how to accept, if it bothers you it is because clearly there is a good job involved, I think they all had a good development and a realistic ending
The actors were excellent, there was great casting work and clearly great chemistry between the entire cast (Somin and Haein mentioned it a lot)Haein's acting never disappoints, he is one of the few actors who can convey everything with just one look, Somin also excelled, although she is an expert in romcoms, I think she stood out in scenes of drama and angst, and they were both a very funny duo, I think someone who didn't know them from other projects would think that they had actually been friends for a long time in real life
I personally liked LND a lot, you can resonate with some of the the topics that are discussed, you can laugh because even though many try to say otherwise this is ROMCOM, of course it has some melodrama, but it is necessary for development and a "happy" ending
I still think that a better job could have been done from the writing and direction, but it is a kdrama that is totally worth it, It's a solid 9/10, healing drama, one of my favorite kdramas this year, along with Queen of Tears, Lovely Runner and The Atypical Family (do you notice anything in common? Yes, fools in love are the trend?)

Love Next Door

A Slice of Life That is Charming, Filled with Loving Relationships

Love Next Door is heartwarming and delightful; it smoothly blends romance, humor, and drama into one swaddling story. Situated in a quaint idyllic neighborhood, this show reveals the lives of two neighbors who initially despise each other but grow to form an unlikely bond into a multi-layered relationship. What works with this show is its great balance between light-heartedness and deeper emotional beats; that is what makes the character's journey so real and relatable.

The chemistry between the lead actors is palpable right from the start, and their performances add depth to the narrative. Those awkward, hilarious interactions at the very beginning flesh out naturally into a relationship that is so worth rooting for. Not to forget the charm added by the supporting casts to the story, each of whom brought their quirky subplots that enriched the overall experience.

The writing is witty and sharp, full of great one-liners that keep the tone of the show light while dealing with deeper themes of love, trust, and self-discovery. The pacing of the show is also spot on, not lingering on one plot point for too long, yet devoting enough time to certain moments so they can breathe. As each character navigates misunderstandings, vulnerability, and personal growth, it's quickly obvious why Love Next Door strikes such a chord with me.

Visually speaking, the show is very vibrant. The neighborhood setting gives off a very inviting vibe, almost nostalgic. The camerawhots have been great, really capturing poignantly the moments of daily routine; one truly feels a part of this little community. The production design is warm and suits the tone of the show, though it isn't overboard.

But then there is also that strength of this series: its ability to surprise audiences with real emotional depth. What seemed like a pretty straightforward romantic comedy at the beginning slowly revealed layer after layer of character backstory and personal struggle. The story doesn't pull punches-love can be messy, riddled with mistakes and prone to hurt; it also contains moments of hopeful goodness that prove the catalyst for personal growth.

It is not a perfect series, of course; conflicts sometimes seem a bit predictable at times, and one or two secondary plotlines may have been nice to develop further. For the most part, however, these are minor complaints that barely detract from the appealing nature of the series.

But one thing I do not like has nothing to do with the show but with the environment on MyDramaList: it's when troll accounts show up just to hate on dramas like Love Next Door. More often than not, this is because of biased opinions; it would just push their favorite shows to the top. That kind of pettiness spoils the fun in engaging with the community and undermines genuine reviews.

Conclusion: Love Next Door literally has everything you would need from the genres of Slice of life and Melodrama . Its perfect blend of romance, humor, and slice-of-life moments really makes this a must-watch for anyone looking for a series that will warm your heart . It's that sort of program which feels comfortingly like a hug, offering just the right amount of escape while still punching above its weight emotionally.

Love Next Door: Family, Friends, and Fluttering Hearts

Picture this: a cozy neighborhood where everyone knows your business, but in the most heartwarming way possible. That's where our story unfolds, and let me tell you, I was hooked from the very first episode!

The Main Couple:

Our lead characters? Absolutely adorable! The chemistry between them is off the charts, and I found myself grinning like a fool during their cute interactions. The way they go from bickering neighbors to stealing glances at each other? Pure magic!

More Than Just Romance:

But it's not just about the romance, folks. The show dives deep into family dynamics, friendship, and chasing your dreams. I laughed, I cried (okay, maybe I sobbed a little), and I felt like I was right there with them, cheering them on.
Can we talk about the secondary characters for a sec? They're not just fillers; each one has their own story that had me invested.

The Second Lead Couple:

Oh my gosh, I can't forget to gush about the second lead couple! They're absolutely fantastic!
You know how sometimes the secondary romance can feel a bit tacked on? Not in "Love Next Door"! The second lead couple totally stole my heart. Their storyline is so well-developed that I found myself just as invested in their journey as I was in the main couple's.
What I love most about them is how different their dynamic is from our main leads. While the primary couple has that classic bricking vibe, our second leads have this slow-burn, friends-to-lovers thing going on that's just chef's kiss. The way they support each other through thick and thin, even before realizing their feelings? It's friendship goals and relationship goals all rolled into one!
And here's the cherry on top – there's a kid involved in their story, and oh boy, does it add a whole new layer of heartwarming goodness! The way the second male lead bonds with this child is just precious. You can see him growing and softening through their interactions, and it's absolutely beautiful to watch.
But wait, it gets even better! The relationship between the child and the second female lead's mother? Total tearjerker material, in the best possible way. It's like watching a little family come together, piece by piece. There's this one scene where the three of them are just hanging out, and I swear, my heart grew three sizes. It's these little moments that make the show feel so real and relatable.
Their individual character arcs are amazing too. They're not just there to support the main story – they've got their own dreams, struggles, and growth that had me rooting for them every step of the way

Family Ties:

Oh, and let's not forget about the family dynamics in this show – they're absolutely heartwarming! "Love Next Door" doesn't just focus on romantic relationships; it delves deep into the complexities of family life, and I'm here for it.
The way the show portrays different family structures and relationships is so refreshing. We've got everything from tight-knit traditional families to single-parent households, and each one feels so real and relatable. I found myself tearing up more than once during those emotional family scenes.
Now, I've got to be honest here – I had some mixed feelings about the main female lead's family. At first, I didn't really like them, except for her father. They came across as a bit... well, let's just say they weren't winning any "Family of the Year" awards in my book. But here's the thing – as the show progressed, I found my heart starting to soften towards them. It wasn't a complete 180, mind you, but I definitely felt it melting bit by bit. It's like the show was challenging me to look beyond first impressions, just like the characters were learning to do.
What I love most is how the family storylines intertwine with the main plot. The lead characters' families play such crucial roles in their personal growth and romantic journeys. There's this one family dinner scene that had me laughing one minute and reaching for tissues the next – it perfectly captures the chaos and love of family life.
The family aspect adds such depth to the characters and the overall story. It reminds us that love isn't just about romance – it's about the people who've known us our whole lives, who support us through thick and thin. "Love Next Door" beautifully shows how family shapes us, challenges us, and ultimately, how it's always there for us – even when they drive us a little crazy sometimes!

The Soundtrack:

Oh, and the soundtrack! I've had the main theme on repeat for days. It captures the show's essence perfectly – sweet, with just a hint of melancholy.

Friendship, Family, Love

The story was nothing over the top, but it was so pleasing to watch. It is so simple but the acting of the cast was awesome. These kinds of dramas mainly rely on acting & chemistry between cast members and how the story is executed.

Loved Jung Hae In & Jung So Min's acting. The chemistry between Choi Seung Hyo & Bae Seok Ryu plays a pivotal role in how engaging the drama feels.

Loved how, in the beginning of the drama, Seo Hye Suk & Na Mi Suk bragged about their children's success but by the end of the drama it changed into bragging about each other children.

Laughed how Choi Seung Hyo & Bae Seok Ryu cussed at each other. I wish it had not been muted.

First time I have seen exes being good guys. Both the leads ex were so supportive & understanding. Loved how Choi Seung Hyo ex gave him the push to move forward & confess his feelings. She mainly encourages him to open up to Bae Seok Ryu. Bae Seok Ryu's ex, was so supportive of her. He was there for her when she needed someone. I get that his behavior in the end wasn't proper. But won't you also get frustrated or upset when you see your loved one surviving, but you have no idea what to do or how to comfort her?

But the scene where Bae Seok Ryu throws her shoes at Choi Seung Hyo, I didn't like that one. In reels, people are going gaga over it that Choi Seung Hyo is such a green flag he didn't react or help her out to wear the shoes etc etc. But he would've been a red flag if it was him who threw the shoes at Bae Seok Ryu. Such a double standard view society have.

People might find it similar to Welcome to Samdal-ri & Queen of Tears. But it's not internally similar. These dramas' main plot is the sub-plot in this drama. Welcome to Samdal-ri & Love Next Door both the FL hit rock bottom in their professional career. They had to start all of it all over again. One was bullied & another was accused of bullying others. Also, Queen of Tears & Love Next Door both FL had terminal illness.

I enjoyed watching it a lot.

Reconnecting and Growing from Childhood Friends to Lovers

Love Next Door, the new hottest romcom, isn't exactly a "romcom". It leans more over to the melodrama side, which can be misleading. This features the classic childhood lovers to friends trope. We dive into the main leads' complicated pasts and how they rediscover each other.

The ML, Choi Seung-hyo, is not your classic pure male who's never touched another female in his life. He has past relationships, though it seems like they weren't very deep. However, it's cliche that he fell first, and liked her for majority of his life. His whole family is kind of on the outs, at first. They barely talk to each other so ML ends up spending more time with FL's family.

I believe many people weren't quite happy with the FL, Bae Seok-ryu, at the start of the drama. Don't be discouraged in the first few episodes at the fact she seems so easygoing, and uncaring. It seems to be her coping method. I was starting to not like her, but then a lot was revealed.

She struggled. She struggled so much, always trying to be perfect and never allowing herself to make mistakes for her parents. But it's too hard to always be "perfect". So when she was sick, she couldn't bare her parents hurting because of her. She's one of those people who take on everything themselves, and never ask for help because they don't want to burden, disappoint or hurt anyone else but themselves. That was so relatable to watch because I'm the same. I always struggle with telling people who are close to me about things like this because I don't want to see them hurt and I don't want it to impact their lives so I'll just deal with it myself. Her character was relatable for me, and it was healing when she finally got the support she needed from her friends and family.

She was burnt out and at a loss while other people might just see this as pure "laziness" which was what was depicted in the first few episodes.

It was a really realistic touch to see this portrayed so well. o +1 point. It's very reassuring to see the FL eventually discover her dream and excel at it while being happy. She became my favourite character from this drama.

There's a lot of family dynamics going on in this drama too. Obviously, ML's family heals and everyone's happy lol. The main dynamic, is Seok-ryu vs her mother.


The acting skills are undeniable. Jung Hae-in and Jung So-min, top actor and top actress. Hae-in and So-min can speak through their eyes, and they have diverse ranges in emotions.

The crying, hurt and guilt felt so real? They can really channel emotions into their acting. I think they were the only ones who could've played Seokryu and Seunghyo so well. Honestly, they are perfect for these roles. The characters' interactions all feel genuine.

Kim Ji-eun and Yun Ji-on were perfect for the second lead couple too! Honestly in this drama, everyone was played out their characters quite well. This is an amazing cast with star names! Yeon-du is really cute :).


Seunghyo and Seokryu are the absolute, perfect match for each other. They bicker, fight, but they're the only ones who can heal each other ultimately. They just get each other. They know each other so well, no one can beat that type of relationship. There's metaphors hidden in the show. They're very subtle but they show that no matter what, they're there for each other.

The two leads have great chemistry, imo. I've watched all the cast content and behind-the-scenes on youtube, and honestly they look like great friends IRL and I'm glad this drama brought them together.

I liked all OSTS played in this drama, but honestly "Words I Could Not Say" sang by Jung Hae-in, HIMSELF, tops the cake! His voice sounds so angelic and expresses so many emotions.

DISLIKES:

- The mother was undoubtedly my least favourite character. She really had no emotional growth the whole drama. She has an inferiority complex and believes everyone's making decisions to spite her. There were many chances for potential character development but we never got any. It was like placing a seed, and it sprouts just for it to die before it can grow any bigger. It was just painful whenever she was arguing with literally anyone. It might have been an attempt for a realistic portrayal of an "asian mother", but it was just frustrating when this is meant to be a healing drama and she had literally no character development.

- The SML, is introduced to us as a single father. However, later we learn he's actually the uncle of the child. That was annoying because I was really hoping we could see a single father heal, and open himself up to a new relationship. Though he did lose his whole family and obviously did have to heal from it, it's just not the same yk :(.

- The FL and ML, mostly the ML, did act like teenagers in quite a few of the scenes. They're in their 30s but act like teenagers sometimes. There's a scene where the ML mentions he has "dirty thoughts" that he's not allowed to think of, but he's literally 30? I found it a bit weird, but it's nothing major.

- The writing often relies on injuries/diseases/accidents for emotion breakthroughs and communication to occur.

- The ending was a bit underwhelming, often an issue in kdrama land, I was really expecting them to get married especially cause they built the story up to marriage!


OVERALL:
I really did enjoy this, apart from the cons lol, it's a good watch. It tells a beautiful story, with a lot of healing and growth. I wouldn't list this as a romcom, but more of a melodrama, romance, slice of life with a side of comedy. Overall, it's more like an 8/10, but I gave it an 8.5 because the cast is amazing! I hope you all give this drama a try :). And, let's all remind ourselves that we are all entitled to have different opinions that can coexist.

If you do decide to watch this, I hope you enjoy it!

A Solid Romcom!

So I feel like this drama has gotten so much love but also a lot of criticism, which I think is fair. It's a solid romcom with great leads but some questionable writing. The first like 4 or 5 episodes of this dramas was like a solid 9 or even 9.5, however that special magic did kinda disappear as the show went on. The highlight of this show is easily the chemistry between the main leads, and that does kinda carry the show. Kinda surprised we haven't seen theses two in a drama together earlier. I also enjoyed the second couple.

Now what this show lacks is mostly in the writing, its sloppy at times and certain things happens that are obviously there just to built up a conflict (even if it doesn't make sense). Also the mom is straight-up awful, like seriously.

Overall, I think this is a solid romcom. It doesn't bring anything new to the table, but I still enjoyed watching it for what it is.

Love Next Door: The Powerful Laces of Family, Friendship, and Love Entwine

Youthful Bonds to Lasting Love: Love Next Door Delivers a Heartfelt Tale of Family and Friendship

Love Next Door is not just a drama; it's an intricate tapestry that weaves together threads of family, friendship, and romance. Since the very first episode, I have been hooked enough to make me replay the last three episodes--definitely my favorite. What a brilliant job the cast did, as one could barely envision anyone else for these roles. They lent meaning to these characters in such a way that even after the credits roll, the connection between them would remain intact.

The emotional journey of Bae Seokryu intertwines seamlessly with her childhood friend Choi Seunghyo as they reconnect and navigate the intricacies of their developing relationship. How it transitioned from friends into lovers was done with such nuance; almost refreshing and real, for a change. Every single interaction had tangible chemistry in the air, and the development of their relationship really moved at a pace that kept me glued to the screen. But what really worked for me in this tired drama genre was the avoidance of overused tropes; we get to witness the building up of two faulty characters sans umpteenth girlfriend from hell or over-the-top conflicts.

The family dynamics themselves gave fullness to the story, too. Subplot: Choi Seunghyo's parents rediscover their love for each other-just about like he sees them fall in love all over again-is beautifully done. It added depth and warmth, indeed, to remind me that love can change and be reborn at any age. Moreover, the Lavender Ladies-those bright friends-were a bit different than in friendship. The way they all stood up for each other is just the type of relationship I hope to have someday in my life.

Equally engaging were the mothers in the story. It was deep to see them put aside their differences for the sake of their children; it showed how relationships can sometimes turn for the better whenever we let go of pride. This thread of forgiveness and personal growth courses through the entire series, reminding one that love has many faces: familial, platonic, romantic.

Then there is the ex story arc, which was also really good without relying on the usual melodrama of jealousy and fighting. Rather, it involves plausible characters making poor choices, which lends an air of realism to the series. The writing, though imperfect, pulled off telling a realistic story with relatable characters and heartfelt scenes.

Speaking of pacing and structure, I would liken Love Next Door to a well-constructed "horse chart": yeah, perhaps it had some bumps along its path, but the overall trajectory was meaningful and satisfying. The lack of a clear villain or melodramatic plot twists ultimately made for a very down-to-earth experience, reminding us that not all love is about over-the-top performances; more often than not, love exists in quiet-indeed, very soft-spoken-moments of contact and comprehension.

Ultimately, Love Next Door is not just romance; it is a celebration of growth, connection, and the messiness of human relationships. While perhaps not to the taste of every audience, for the viewer who hopes to find in a story something over and above the typical tropes of romance, this series offers a fresh viewpoint that will linger in heart and mind long after the final scene.

relatable characters, excellent performances, great chemistry, beautiful story telling

I love the expressions of love in this drama and how it showcases each character and their relationships. "Love Next Door" truly feels like it’s unfolding right around us, so natural and real. The storyline is relatable to everyone, whether it’s a mother trying to live her dreams through her daughter, a couple struggling with communication, a man dealing with financial pressures, or a single mother determined to see her daughter married. Each character in "Love Next Door" mirrors someone from our everyday lives. The writer has made the ordinary extraordinary, the director has presented it beautifully, and the actors have portrayed it all with such ease, delivering an exceptional experience.

The story of Seokryu, a success-driven, ambitious woman making strides abroad, takes a turn when her life faces an unexpected crisis. Left with no choice but to reboot her life, she returns to her roots and her people. Jung So-min's portrayal of Seokryu feels so genuine that it’s hard to imagine anyone else in the role. She truly is the perfect, and perhaps only, Seokryu. Known as the "Rom-Com Queen," Jung So-min also delivers outstanding emotional scenes. Jung Hae-in, equally captivating with his charm and talent, complements her beautifully. Together, they create a stunning and chemistry-rich pairing on screen.

The story, beginning with playful bickering, kept me entertained without a single dull moment. I laughed heartily, felt deeply moved at times, and even experienced sweet moments of excitement when the romance blossomed. I thoroughly enjoyed every part of this drama.

The "Lavender Girls" characters are delightful, and the two funny daddies are so cute and sweet. The second couple also shines—though perhaps Korean standards influenced Dan Ho's backstory, a single-parent angle could have been equally heartwarming. I love the dynamic between Seokryu and Dong Jin; the sibling rivalry, the mix of love and resentment, and the authenticity in their relationship felt very real. The trio of Seokryu, Seungyo, and Maeum share a beautiful friendship.

Both exes are standout characters—there’s no toxicity, just depth and positivity. Above all, the bond between Seunghyo and Seokryu stole the show with their unique understanding and high level of comfort. The way Seunghyo understands Seokryu and Seokryu’s care for Seunghyo is my favorite trope. From childhood moments, like bathing together in a sauna, their relationship has remained so naturally strong.

The writing is excellent, featuring well-crafted dialogues that demonstrate the director's strong command. Despite the frequent transitions into flashbacks, the story remains cohesive and well-structured. The director effectively weaves the narrative together, successfully conveying the essence of the story in a captivating manner. Another standout element was the cinematography, each frame felt beautifully crafted. This drama is an excellent watch for anyone who loves relatable storytelling.
For me, this drama deserves a perfect 10 out of 10. No matter how many times I watch it, it consistently earns a flawless score

Love Next Door: A Heartfelt Slow-Burn with Genuine Relationships

When I first started watching *Love Next Door*, I didn’t have high expectations. I thought it might just be another light-hearted friends-to-lovers story, but from the very beginning, it completely surprised me. What set this drama apart was how effortlessly it wove in deeper themes like family, friendship, and illness, giving the story much more emotional depth than I anticipated.

The dynamic between the characters was especially captivating. The transition from friends to lovers was handled so smoothly that it felt natural and refreshing. Despite their growing romance, the characters never lost the core of their friendship, which is rare in similar dramas. I was honestly surprised when some viewers mentioned they didn’t feel the chemistry between the leads because, to me, it was definitely there. Their bond felt authentic, and the way they supported each other through personal challenges made their love story even more compelling.

The family and friendship relationships were another highlight. They felt genuine, adding emotional layers to the drama that made it more than just a romance. The drama's slow-burn nature allowed these relationships to develop gradually, giving each character space to grow in a realistic way. This slower pacing didn’t drag at all but rather built the tension and deepened the emotional stakes, making the eventual romantic payoff even more satisfying.

As for the ending, I have no complaints. It wasn’t just a happy ending, but one that felt like the start of a new chapter for the characters. It gave me a sense of closure while leaving space for imagination about what comes next. Now that it’s over, I know my weekends are going to feel a little empty without it.

In conclusion, *Love Next Door* was an unexpected gem. It wasn’t just about romance—it was about life, family, and the importance of relationships. Despite its minor flaws, it left a lasting impression, and I’m grateful for the connections I’ve made with others who enjoyed it just as much. Oh, and yes, I even changed my profile picture to remember it!

When you think childhood friends can't find love

It was a really rocky road with this one. A lot of these romcoms or romantic dramas, you can always predict that the ML and FL will end up together, that's if one of them doesn't die.

This is one where I wasn't sure if the two will actually be together in the end, since both sides of the family has known one another for 30+ years and the two mains have known each other their entire lives.

I was hoping they wouldn't pull a thing they do in the west where most people thinks it's better to just remain friends since they were friends their whole life and they think it just won't work out.

Well, SPOILERs... there's a happy ending for these two to end up together, but it took some rejections at first, more from FL because of certain issues she had to deal with.

Watch this anyway, it's a fun watch and has a lot to do with family as well. Seeing the charimsa and bickering between ML and FL and loveable and great to watch as well. I don't think you'll be disappointed if you like some good old fashion and traditional Kdrama romantic dramas with a new spin on it.
