The Interest of Love

I have 3 episodes left and am really enjoying this show. The actors have a lot of depth and the story is engaging. Having watched Yoo Yeon-Seok in Mr. Sunshine (a must watch!), he is not disappointing in this show and I mainly watched it to see him at first. He conveys the implied emotion on his face without even saying a word, he is a very good actor!

This is a show about love and discrimination based on upbringing and the amount of money you have. It also shows us how important timing can be to a relationship and how the choices we make affect not only ourselves, but can have a profound impact on others.

I am puzzled by the low ratings given by other viewers. Perhaps they like action or crazy storylines, or perhaps they like popcorn shows where they dont have to think much and where there isn't much character development?

In any case, go into it with an open mind and don't let the other reviews prevent you from watching. At least give it a chance.

I thought the actors were all pretty good. I just can't stand these depressing stories. Ironically the second leading man was also in Love Alarm, another K-Drama I couldn't stand. Currently on episode 15 and it's heading towards a sad ending, or perhaps another ending similar to Love Alarm, where the writer keeps you in the dark regarding the true emotions of the female lead. Also, others have mentioned how they disliked the normalization of cheating, and I agree regarding that sentiment, however, I don't believe any of the characters actually cheated...I think they made others believe that they cheated... hopefully I will find this out tomorrow.

Ugh, I'll be watching finale tomorrow, but if you haven't started, and you prefer happy endings, go watch something else, like It's Okay to Not Be Okay (my absolute favorite K-Drama).

This was way, way TOO slow for me. I liked the idea of a bank themed workplace so watched it but it was so slow and boring it just put me to sleep. I am reluctant to give out 5 stars however there were 2 saving elements - There was really only 2 things good about this series: 1. Episode 13 when Ga-ram Jung stepped up to be a man and finally put some excitement into the series when he found out about the so-called "incident". But the excitement was a one scene wonder due to the rest of the series that got boring again. 2. Yoo Yeon-seok gave out a very few kisses, but the ones he did were really good - you could see he has lots of experience in that department.

The ending was the worse unsatisfying ending I ever saw in a series.

"The Interest of Love" is not for everyone, definitely not for the ones who believe in fast forward love stories.

It is for us... the hopeless romantics, we don't love simple fun loving love life, it has to be complex, confusing, intriguing where you introspect yourself.

I could totally relate with each and every character.....the beauty of this drama is the pace. It is slow, there is no hurry to jump on to any conclusion, there is entry & exit of emotions, the feeling of disappearing and destroying...these are real notions, this is life!!

Patiently waited each week to upload the new episodes, was excited to see what unfolds!!

And yes, the main lead Yoo Yeon Seok he never disappoints. His suttleness is the key to his success.

So if you have patience and the understanding of difficult love....then don't miss this drama.

This is a very well-written show with excellently-developed characters. None of the characters are shown to be particularly good or particularly bad - but as human beings, which is something I greatly appreciate as a writer. The realistic themes covered here will definitely get the viewer to think long and hard about our societal framework and how that can either help or hinder our way to happiness.

Another thing I like is the acting of the main four. Though all of them are subtle with their emotions, they still form distinct personalities which make for great performances overall. Understated acting is perhaps one of the hardest types of acting to accomplish, so I believe the lead actors did a superb job with their characters, being neither overdramatic nor wooden.

I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys rich character development and unpredictable, yet realistic outcomes. The best part of this show is how incredibly human the characters are, which is something I believe needs to be shown more in movies and TV.
