Keopi Hanjan Halkkayo?

A decent concept but the drama didn't hit well with me. I didn't like either of the main leads nor was I interested in their boring sappy personal story. The support characters and their stories were slightly better. You better off just drink a cup of coffee anyway. A decent concept but the drama didn't hit well with me.

I don't even drink coffee so the main theme wasn't something I'm interested in normally. But even the way all the coffee trivia is delivered is soft spoken and delicate like the whole series. This is the closest I've seen to 80s/90s Woody Allen in a Korean series. I don't know if that was the intention/inspiration of the creators or not but it was such a pleasant and heart warming surprise.

The colors, cinematography, music, clothing, hair and overall aesthetic. The emphasis on dialogue and relationships, without noise or unnecessary drama. But most importantly for me, how pretty the city setting looked in each frame, just like Woody Allen used to do for New York City. It makes me want to visit Korea, even though I know the reality is different. Just like NYC ;)

After the manic extravagance of CGI super heroes, overly sentimental disease of the month dramas, guessable mysteries and unfunny comedies, too often full of foul language and over the top fight scenes, this series is a breath of fresh air. The acting is such that you feel they are not acting, that they are the real people they portray. It is a series of moments intertwining a group of people's lives, centered around a coffee shop. The humor is light, the drama is believable, and their stories are like fresh brewed fine quality coffee. Another viewer hoped there will be a continuation, but with the same quality of this delightful view into these characters.

Whimsical and sweet, each episode also has aspects of pertinent issues and sensibilities. It gently takes you along as the main character learns to understand things about the world around him and the people in it. Just a nice way to spend 25 minutes.

This show definitely surprised me (In a wonderful way). Watching each Episode is like a treat with several layers of goodness. Every episode walks you through a unique mix various emotions be it happiness, joy, kindness, heartbreak etc. This show definitely grows on you.

Great and strong performances by all the actors. Park Ho-San is a gem of an actor and did justice to his character, Seong-Wu Ong also gave a very strong performance. Such a heartwarming and wholesome show that shows complex relationships, views and teaches life lessons through the journey of the characters and with a teacher teaching his student how to make a great cup of coffee. I highly recommend this show, so happy that I watched this gem of a show.
