Plot Synopsis by AsianWiki Staff ©

Bo-A (Kim So-Hye) wants to become a webtoon writer, but she struggles to accomplish her dream. Bo-A runs a bathhouse, which is owned by grandfather, and also she lives on the second floor of the bathhouse. She doesn't associate with people outside of her 3 friends. The bathhouse is the perfect place for her to seclude herself from society.

Park Min Apr 25 2023 12:02 pm Fried chicken init! As a chicken connoisseur, I don't approve this. The dirtiest chicken restaurant I know serves better chicken than this guy's chicken. Anyway, the drama was straight up not good, even the cast was meh. Also, it would be better off if they removed the romance and made more chicken instead.

Nitro Dec 02 2020 12:14 am I hesitate to continue this drama even though i just watched the first episode. I don't like character of Seo Bo-A. It is told that she is an antisocial girl, but that doesn't mean she has right of admit other people's belongings to her, right? The sauna didn't even belong to her parents, but her grandfather. Even if it belongs to her parents, she has no right to claim it is her.

scarletsungrok Aug 06 2019 9:09 am wish they added more scenes developing mina and andrew's relationship as well as more sound effects + background music because the overall build up of the drama was very choppy and not as smooth as most dramas... the death of her grandfather was very random and somewhat inappropriate for a drama with only 12 eps, the time taken to show bo-a's grandfather's funeral could have been used to add more scenes between the main or even side ships. kind of rushed idk, but i still liked it

pawttato Jun 20 2019 2:00 am Seriously a reverse harem k-drama. Too bad they didn't make it a love triangle story, but i got second-lead syndrome cuz of chef-nim. Actually i watch this drama because i found a vid of cho seung youn and park sun ho in pdx

Gino Lee Feb 28 2019 9:03 pm Pretty good! Interesting storyline and solid actors make for an engaging story.

Near the end, it seemed like they threw in one twist too many, in terms of Bo-ah's father.

I think the time would have been better served, to stay with the conflict with Choi-Go's mother and letting that play out.

I look to seeing more of Kim Hye-So, in future dramas. I've become her fan from watching this drama!

ellie Feb 19 2019 2:29 pm Lots I like about it, but I did get annoyed with her and her friends. Especially, episode 6 or maybe it was 7.

itbeme Feb 10 2019 3:02 am Was pleased with the show. easy to watch becuase there wasn’t any huge conflict. wished it was 4 episodes longer because the ending was a bit rushed and wanted more character development for more characters. and wished they showed everyones success at the end... ?

Yoshi Feb 09 2019 10:14 am Good ending, just wish the showed a bit more epilogue because it leaves the viewership curious about the other characters.

abraham kang Feb 09 2019 9:36 am I love the overall story. it is very light drama and has something to give to viewers. love the romance ><

syam Feb 08 2019 7:29 pm I've watched all the episodes...maybe because i am a fan of Kim Sohye, i would say that her acting was very good especially when it comes to cry scene...i cry everytime she cry...and also when it comes to comedic scene, she's so cute...but there's certain scene that can be improved...i like all of her friends character...they also good...overall, i like this drama, although, maybe it's a little bit slow..i"ll give 3.5 out of 5 stars.

Itbeme Feb 03 2019 4:38 am omg Boa’s friends did those terrible acts themselves... then Mina has tha audacity to blame and get mad at Boa for liking Choi go? thats stupid as hell... Also the drama is very simple and easy to watch!

ash Feb 01 2019 8:02 am It has BOF OST "Lucky" love the song!!!!

Brendan Vu Jan 28 2019 11:46 pm Overall drama is refreshing and enjoyable. Romance slowly trickles in so if you love character progression, this drama is for you.

Priti Jan 22 2019 12:56 am Entertaining drama. Comedy but not loud. All actors perfectly chosen and fitted in respective character. Anderson...Alexander ha, ha, ha. ... awaiting for next episodes.

Chrystivani Jan 20 2019 4:19 am Inspirasing for Who want to open Chicken business...

Felix Jan 14 2019 3:03 am You know what's the best part of this show? It's the Chicken. While watching I can't help but to drool over fried chicken..hahaha. I enjoy every scene and hopefully they extend it for 2 or more episodes. Dabin would surely enjoy this show....hahahaha.

Oh, thanks also to Kplus for airing this great show. I definitely recommend watching this drama.

YenneY Jan 13 2019 12:24 am the title is like a pun tho. since the title could literally be translated to "Choigo's Chicken" since Choigo is like the main chef of the chicken joint.

Ritika Verma Jan 12 2019 2:14 pm omo this drama is so good!i loved every bit of it! First I was Hesitating to give it a try since I wasn't familiar with the channel but now it feels like I have done a very good job in choosing this drama!! It's Highly Recommended cause it's light and sweet and will take all your stress out! Damn, I can't wait for more episodes!

Anibebe Jan 05 2019 1:08 pm Her 'late' grandfather is very much alive. Was momentarily confused by the synopsis.

Axeman Mancus Jan 02 2019 9:30 pm fluttering alarm just ended in its episode 16 finale :)))

DW Dec 22 2018 6:18 am Why isn't it noted that this will replace 설렘주의보 (Fluttering Alarm/Love Alarm) in the MBN Wed-Thursday 11pm timeslot.
