Premiere Watch: Crash Course in Romance
by missvictrix
Time slot: Saturday-Sunday
Broadcaster: tvN
Genre: Rom-com
Episode count: 16
Reasons to watch: This could be the rom-com we’ve all been waiting for. Jeon Do-yeon stars as an ex-athlete, banchan shop owner, and the mother of a teenage daughter. Jung Kyung-ho plays the nation’s top instructor. Naturally, their personalities will clash — and also, they’ll be thrown together a lot, giving us humor, hijinks, and hopefully a good dose of squees. The casting here is really exciting — it’s an interesting pairing and a refreshing demographic, too — but the writer should also excite us, because having Familiar Wife, Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-ju, Oh My Ghostess, and High School King of Savvy on your resume sure gets my antennae up.
TL;DR: Hooray, a rom-com with characters that are not 25!

Okay, Ep 1 is promising.
It is not what I expected but the last few minutes wrap up very nicely a plain storytelling premier episode which is not showy but zeroing in the background and personality of our main characters - and getting our buy-in to root for them.
Well, looking forward to Ep 2.

Very very promising based on the first 2 episodes. I have been eagerly looking forward to this drama as in my humble opinion, the leads are 2 of the best actors in the game. I most recently watched Jeon Do Yeon in Human Disqualification and she was absolutely brilliant.

No spoilers- so no details- but I am not quite sure what to make of the show after watching the first two episodes.
