One day, he meets Eun-chan, a cheerful girl who has an unpredictable personality, and learns the meaning of true love...

The chemistry and tension between the leads in this drama was awesome given the issue of sexual identity, attraction and love that it raises. Very beautifully done.

To answer E Pshlakai, the series was not left up in the air at all. Did she pass the barista exam? Yes, that's why she went home. Did they get married? Yes, again why she went home. Did Han Yoo Joo have a miscarriage? Yes, which is why the reference about not going back to the hospital was made. Presumably she couldn't conceive anymore, but they were both moving on with their lives anyway. Was there a 2nd coffee shop? Yes, Ko Eun Chan asked if it was all going to be ready by September. All the questions were answered in the last 15 minutes of eps 17. Personally, I loved it, and thought the ending was just right.

Would love to see Part 2 of this series .. . . Been a fan of Yoon Eun hye ever since. (though this drama series was shown a few years later than in South Korea. If it can be done it would be a treat to a lot of their fans

So how does it end? I spent watching 17 episodes and felt like I was left up in the air? Is the series still continuing? Did she pass the barista exam? Did they get married? Did the cousin who was a music producer, did the wife have a miscarriage? Was there a 2nd coffee shop? Feels like I was teased toward some conclusion but nothing. If the 17th episode is really the last episode, I am going to be so regretful of watching it. I'm not watching anymore asian dramas, I don't have the time to be teased. You need to hire better subtitle translaters, their company flashes up on the screen so much, at least it will be a name that a smart film producer/director will stay away from.

One of the best stories! It is very funny and just interesting, Eun-hye Yun was really like a boy and her acting was great, but Yu Kong was simply marvelous!!! His acting was soooo real...and the moment he started singing in the morning to Eun-hye Yun.... I fell in love, seriously... ^______^
