Love at first sight is nice, but there's something special about a relationship that actually develops.
In K-dramaland, it often happens that one of the leads falls madly in love with the other after a first sight, a first word, or a slow-motion walk. And there's nothing wrong with enjoying those stories.
But sometimes you want a more realistic portrayal, where the leads actually get to know each other and gradually realize their feelings before making big confessions.
