I didn't like Da-hyun's mother in these episodes. She's loud, not subtile at all, put her daughter in this situation instead to call an ambulance, always hit her daughter, doesn't know when to shut up...

At the opposite, I loved Da-hyun and Gye-Young's interactions. They were so funny. She's so obvious with the murder and he's so dumbfounded that she can speak about it so openly when she shouldn't :D

I don't care so much about the different mysteries. I'm pretty sure that every neighborhood resident will be a suspect before we know the real one.

I love the grandma-mom-daughter trio. Them acting like pros in murder but at the same time being clueless and dumb is a hoot to watch! I neither expected the domestic abuse victim to threaten and hire the trio after witnessing them hide the body nor the quick reveal of the possible blood relation between the leads; the stalker mystery; Da Hyun's confession of murder to Gye Hoon. The drama is actually progressing at a quick phase but it actually doesn't seem so because of Da Hyun and Gye Hoon's slow bonding over their impromptu late night rendezvous. That was just relaxing to watch❤ I am looking forward to more episodes.

I'm glad we know how he made it out of the fridge. I don't think it was a dream, I do think he made it out. The weird angles make me think it is his sister, but who knows.

Also I rolled my eyes at the childhood connection, but at least it makes sense because they moved back to the old neighborhood.

Now that I knew I was in for a comparatively dark drama, I was able to enjoy the next two episodes unreservedly. I love the sudden twists and abstruse events. I wouldn't even miss the love story if it didn't exist, because I find the rest just exciting enough.

The moment shown in the lead photo on this recap was very funny. No, no, nothing suspicious going on at all.

I really appreciate Jin-hoo. His questions and reactions always bring a normal and sometimes hilarious perspective to this totally weird environment.

@quirkycase, I also won't be surprised if Won-tak is the boy who turned in his father for Gye-young's disappearance. But where did all that anger come from? Is he avenging the victim(s) he could not help when he was a frightened boy?

More good times were had! I'm still really liking the chemistry between our leads. The tone definitely shifts on a dime, and I think a little more care could be payed to the transition between heavier stuff to comedy but I'm down for more so...keep it coming!

Started dying of laughter at Dahyun’s botched confession, terrible patch up, admitting it anyway to Gye Hoon’s dismay, and then finishing it by threatening him vaguely and without remorse,
kept laughing through her second accidental confession about the knife, wept at the Three Musketeers traipsing through the streets all holding accidental weapons, in such a brilliant use of prop comedy, only to end up at the Police Station, yet again, and reached peak catharsis by the time Gye Hoon was sobbing over cleaning the wine glasses.

I love that everyone is weird and implicated somehow. I love that that very much includes not only Gye Hoon and his Chef friend, despite them being the “new” kids in town, but also Miss Shady Chef herself who commented thus.

I love the relationship between our 3 generational female family unit. I love their similarities, their arguments, their laughter, their tears, the new found phobia of fridges, Halmoni’s sudden bursts of determinism that lead to utter Chaos, and their single shared braincell between them (that they are all acutely aware of.)

Would also love it if Eun Jung and Ji Eun were also twins but like the evil opposite of Gye Hoon and Gye Young, idk I think that’d be fun.

The fridge, the knife, the missing body (or man), the cop with … anger management issues, the homeless ex piano teacher who is probably the aforementioned cop’s father, the taxi driver and his wife, the domestic abuse case, the contracted hit, payment: blackmail, two vengeful siblings- I can only hope that more and more layers to this story keep unfolding and being revealed, because I would be DELIGHTED if the Taxi Driver of Doom was not the last or even second last piece of this puzzle at all~
(and even more so hope that the drama deals with all said layers satisfactorily… 👀)
And over the top of it all! Food! And blooming crushes! And supernatural ties!

Link: Eat, Love, Kill --- *QUITE* the apt title. It did not come to play, now did it.

I'm loving this drama- it feels fresh and different, mysterious, funny and serious all at once. It's like a lighter version of Beyond Evil, with romance and humor thrown in. I'm also happy that I can access it with my Disney+ account via VPN to DisneyPlus Korea, haha.
There are so many hilarious scenes and the cast play them out perfectly- I always thought Moon Ga Young had great comedic timing and she uses it well in her confession/not confessions to Gyehoon. The trio of grandma/mom/daughter getting in trouble and landing in the police station all the time is a riot. I'm also really impressed at how well Yeo Jin Goo has become at delivering comedy, he doesn't overdo the delivery like I sometime felt he did in HDL and his scenes with his junior chef are pure gold (why is everyone in the town starting at us? It's because we're walking like this- pan to junior chef clutching Gyehoon's arm in a lover-like death embrace).
There's also a very serious thread of assault and violence against women woven into the plot that I'm appreciating. It seems so many women in this small town are victims. The montage scene of Dahyun being "unlucky" with men who are perverts, stalkers, and cheaters, is both funny and sad, as is the wife blackmailing Dahyun's mom and grandma into killing her husband in the middle of a bopping town aerobics dance class. And the mom understanding the wife blackmailing her because she was abused herself.
I'm glad they cleared up that Dahyun is not Gyehoon's sister- a lot of people didn't like that storyline but in some ways it was necessary because Gyehoon wouldn't have allowed himself to get close to Dahyun if he hadn't hoped she was his long-lost sister. That being said, he tells Dahyun he's not going to be concerned with her anymore, but moments later runs out to find her, concerned after realizing the man in the fridge may still be alive. He's hooked whether he knows it or not and I'm looking forward to seeing how his self-discovery plays out *(slow burn romance, anyone?)
That last scene gave me the shivers- the stalker is alive and Gyehoon sees it (either as a foreshadowing or through telepathy). The stalker took Gyehoon's knife then was run over by the taxi driver, who took the knife back home where his wife put it in their kitchen drawer (why?)- but where's the stalker now? And the stalker's sister just gives me the creeps.
The plot so far is likely a finely constructed puzzle with interlocking pieces- can't wait to see how it plays out.

Don't like the mom, love the grandma. Everyone is shady as he** including that officer Ahn, who figured out who Gye-hoon is. But the main couple is absolutely wonderful. I haven't enjoyed a main couple this much in a long time. Da-hyun is such a nut and Gye-hoon is so logical; they complement each other and balance each other out. And Yeo Jin-gu just keeps getting more and more delicious.

This show is so bizarre in their reaction display. Everyone is so cool about the murder. They made a fuss over smallest thing or less despicable acts, but when they talk about the murder, it as if they were talking about “how to hide the fact that you broke mommy’s vase”. The only fitting emotion potrayed is about the missing case of Gyeyoung. But, I do like this oddball of drama. Weird.

I’m really enjoying the drama - it wasn’t what I was expecting but it’s so fresh and funny! Kudos to the actors. I was slightly let down to find out the stalker’s still alive, but then again I don’t want to end with lots of jail time for our heroes!
I know the mother isn’t a great role model, but you can see they all love each other and would do anything for each other…? They make such an awesome team!

Gye Hoon continues to be very funny in his own way! If I'm Da Hyun, I too would fall for Gye Hoon. Between him and Da Hyun's mom & grandma, he's the only one asking about if she's really ok to the point he brought her to the hospital to do check ups.

I love the bickering between mom & Da Hyun, her & Gye Hoon, Jin Hoo & Gye Hoon (and its hilarious watching him secretly do the DNA test)

I'm suspicious with Won Tak & Eun Jung the sister.

Overall this show felt fresh! It's hilarious and dark but everything is perfectly blended!

Currently rewatching previous episodes because I want some giggles. Haha.

In one of the earlier episodes when the camera was being put up after Gye-hoon's window was broken and one woman said it was a day too late, one of the men got so upset with her and demanded to know what she meant. I thought he was her abusive husband and was worried that she was going to tell (turns out they aren't even married). But after seeing the end of episode 4, I think he was worried because

-he hit the stalker with his car and was worried that she had seen that. We've seen the knife the stalker took in his house and he hit the stalker, so what did he do with the stalker and/or the body?

I'm actually happy I started this, it's such a twist compared to what I was expecting which was a simple rom-com but boy was I wrong!

Despite the heavy dark themes of abuse & violence, the drama is doing great in addressing it and not just brushing it aside. MGY is phenomenal at portraying a traumatized individual to the point where I feel so bad for Da-hyun. No one should suffer like this. It's sickening to think there are individuals like stalker guy who actually exist.
But the light humor to the show keeps it bearable too (please the part where she said "I made you both become contract killers")

I completely agree with y'all here when mentioned that they aren't subtle. Their actions around the police are a major ??? and makes them look more suspicious (I mean, who scatters like that??) then they already are. (but then again the police themselves are already suspicious and one of them is going around beating individuals up so)

YJG as EGH is really good. But when he failed to answer simple questions about his restaurant, that made me shiver (I once studied hospitality and had experiencing coming up with a restaurant) that he did not plan any basics at all.

All in all, gotta hand it to both YJG & MGY for portraying their characters, it must not be easy having to coordinate their emotions esp for YJG.

The most absurd part of this all is that rather than be concerned about the psycho stalker, the whole twin sister mystery, the townspeople being so weird or literally anything else that the show wants me to be preoccupied with, my thoughts keep going to how on earth DH's family restaurant is going to survive this economy when they get like ONE customer a day, even if that 😭
