Brewing Love

The adorable Kim Sejeong plays Chae Young-ju who is an ex special forces soldier who now works in a brewery and is tasked with getting a brewmaster to work with and create a beer for her company. The problem is that the brewmaster Yoon Min-ju (Lee Jong-won) isolates himself from the world due to his extreme sensitivity to other peoples emotions. This is a gentle romantic drama in which we learn a lot about hops and the basics of beer brewing and the work involved. It has a strong supporting cast who all do a good job and has some amusing moments but overall it is just a gentle easy going drama which is watchable but not that memorable.

So yeah I finished watching the drama just now and hereis my review fresh out of the oven!!!

This drama is definitely something new from the usual kdrama trope touching sensitive topics and what impressed me the most the ML definitely shattered all the hailed toxic masculinity he shows his weakness his emotions openly and that is not something kdramas show it is always the ML saving the damsel in distress but here oh mahn the FL is this strong woman who indeed saves the ML. The love story of our ju ju couple is simple and beautiful. No unwanted dramas and twists and turns, they solve their issues like matured couples and there is no cringe aigooo moments. They are one of the veryfew green flag couple's who support and rooot for each other.

The side stories of the supporting characters were also sweet and short and did not bore me. The story was also nice and simple a good slice of life story I liked it. The cast also gave a good performance.

So if you are in for a good slice of life feel good drama brewing love is a good one.

God, I am absolutely loving this series. It's light-hearted and feel good series, yes, but the way it takes you on an emotional ride from happiness, to sadness, from confusion to understanding, it properly depicts how the real world is. I love how in such a subtle and tender way they are breaking the social norms. You can't ever get offended by it, that's how it's been portrayed. I've never cooed so much in my life like the way I'm doing for the soft scenes of this series, I think I can't even recognise myself at times XD.

When it comes to acting, I think it can be improved more by the FL. Don't get me wrong, i absolutely love her and she has been my favourite for a long time, but I feel like, in few of the scenes her acting feels forced. It's unlike her to not deliver a script well, as I've seen her in so many series and have absolutely loved it. But nonetheless, overall, it's not that bad, she's gonna make your heart flutter in certain scenes for sure. And regarding the ML, I have only one thing to say, Perfection! His subtle expressions, his soft gaze that portrays his empath character perfectly, his mannerisms, it's perfect.

You must give this series a go, it's worth your time, trust me! It's surely gonna make your heart flutter!

This is not a romance drama but more. I would call it A Symphony of Sensitivity and Self-Discovery.

I started watching it for the word brewing in it. Curiosity and my love for coffee pulled me in, making me think, this must be something to do with brewing coffee and coffee plantations. But as I began , i was gripped by the lead character , who beautifully portrays , the character of an empathetic-highly sensitive individual. This story is an exploration of empathy, emotional depth, and self-acceptance. I have rarely seen a drama built upon theme like this , with such accuracy - the story delicately portrays the struggles of two kind individuals - one is highly attuned to the world around him , feeling others pain , joy, thoughts so intensely that he struggles to distinguish them from his own.. Through many trials, he learns to embrace his sensitivity and creates a life that shields him from the world's negativity and judgment, allowing him to do what he loves most-brewing.

While The other lead, having carried responsibilities from young age, for the sake of those she loves, has learned to suppress her own emotions, wearing an external shield of strength. They meet in unexpected circumstances, setting in motion a journey of mutual healing, self-exploration, and stepping beyond comfort zones. As they do that , they begin to brew something truly magical-both in their personal and professional lives.

It is gold for Empaths, intuitives, deep thinkers, nature lovers, and those who cherish introspective storytelling. If you enjoyed K-dramas like - Piece of your mind, My Mister, It's Okay to Not Be Okay, or When the Weather is Fine, this will touch your heart in the same profound way.

I am highlighting the theme , around which all actors have done a great job of bringing those minuscule pieces to life! Knowing the craft of filmmaking and screen writing how can I forget the hard work of entire crew.

Brewing Love according to me is not a drama to be watched-but to be felt.

Make more beautiful stories like this. 😍

"Brewing Love" is undeniably a sweet and charming watch. Lee Jong Won's Yun Min Ju, he truly brought a captivating and adorable energy to the screen, making it easy to become invested in his character. While the overall storyline might not be the most groundbreaking or complex, its inherent cuteness and lightheartedness make it an enjoyable and fun way to spend your time.

The chemistry between the leads, including the second couple, was definitely a highlight, creating a comforting and heartwarming atmosphere. The emotional connection between Chae Yung Ju and Kim Min Ju was beautifully portrayed, and the way they supported each other in moments of pain was truly touching. It's those small, tender moments, like Yun Min Ju always wearing a hair tie on his wrist, that added to the overall charm and made the drama so endearing.
