this is me crying tears of happy here as I write this. to start with I not noted the upcoming tvN drama Cyrano relationship business enterprise (formerly with the Flower Boy in its call) due to the fact I’ve been thrice burned through contributors of SNSD acting in dramas (Yoona in Love Rain and others, Jessica in Wild Romance, and Yuri in style King) that I figured would possibly as nicely keep myself the heartburn listening to that Sooyoung turned into the lead on this drama remake of the popular movie of the equal name. I do adore the two main men Lee Jong Hyuk and Lee Chun Hee, both of whom are criminally underrated and horny as all out. not to mention definitely talented actors who exude manly appeal rather than flower boy cuteness. Then I watched episode 1 of CDA and promptly fell in love with this drama. Then I looked at the production team and almost had an out of frame experienced. CDA is helmed through the PD who directed Joseon X-documents (mystery research file) and written by means of the author who did Tamra the Island. let’s have a moment right here to calm ourselves down. This drama comes from the folks accountable for not simply one, however two of my favourite okay-dramas of all time. Repeat – dramas on my pinnacle-10 listing. I assume it’s secure to flail around uncontrollably now. rest confident the end product merits the affection, episode 1 of CDA become lovable. awesome directing, an eclectic use of song cues, a fun peppy script without being too overly treasured or complete of itself, and a fantastic ensemble solid wherein everyone is pulling their weight. Sooyoung is a revelation for me, she’s fantastic in a warm and non-plastic searching manner and her performing has a winsome herbal charm. I already love all three lead characters and the love project of the day installation for this drama leaves room for regular clean testimonies to tell even as building a narrative thread with the contributors of the organisation (and one mysterious captivating Chef) this is on a mission to make love appear and just may find love going on to themselves.
Episode 1 recap:

Sommelier gets the confession he wishes from Ballerina, making her agree with she’s in rate while really the Cyrano dating business enterprise had maneuvered her into making the confession.
Min young gets a name from her supervisor chewing her out for arranging a date between Glasses man and Ballerina. She bumps right into a van with the door ajar and notices inner is all varieties of excessive tech surveillance system, and inside the tv screen is Ballerina from the dinner earlier!
Min Young gets a call from her Manager chewing her out for arranging a date between Glasses Guy and Ballerina. She bumps into a van with the door ajar and notices inside is all sorts of high tech surveillance equipment, and in the TV screen is Ballerina from the dinner earlier!
She turns around and sees Moo Jin, another worker of Cyrano dating organisation. He’s approximately to warn her to be cautious however Min young freaks out and slips and bonks her head on the van, passing out.
Min young awakens in the headquarters of Cyrano dating employer and sees Moo Jin and an even younger employee A-Rang, who welcomes her sweetly.
Min young sees Byung Hoon and his high tech set up and realizes that they were the reason of Glasses man losing his hazard with Ballerina, due to the fact they have been supporting Sommelier.
Min younger is furious that they might control human beings’s affections, but Byung Hoon thinks love calls for method, that's better than Min young’s organisation that organizations people by using training and then tells them to choose amongst their class. He did so much paintings to get Ballerina to pay attention to the wine Sommelier poured for her at each of her failed dates, until she started to see him as a warm shielding presence in her lifestyles.
Byung Hoon offers Min younger a activity because she’s about to be unemployed, and certain enough Min younger gets a textual content from her manager firing her. Min younger doesn’t work this way and huffs off, turning down the task..

Chef Cha Seung Pyo is calling out the window of his restaurant and smiles while he sees Min young peering into the Cyrano courting agency, that is placed across the way.
The door to the employer opens and Min younger scurries away and hides in the eating place, most effective to freak out when Seung Pyo talks to her asking what she is doing? He thinks she’s a future client of the organisation and tells her to be courageous and pass in. Min young says no longer quite, however then screws up her courage and walks returned over..
She runs right into a guy outside who is a ability purchaser and Min younger acts like an employee and brings him inner. once interior, Moo Jin and A Rang carry the patron over to meet Byung Hoon. before the consumer can introduce himself, Byung Hoon offers him a essential as soon as over and efficaciously identifies him as being a veterinarian.
He asks Vet to provide an explanation for his love dreams and Vet reveals that he’s been frequenting a public library near his hospital for years and has developed a weigh down the resident Librarian (cameo by means of Lee Yoon Ji).
Min younger listens to Vet’s tale and is all starry-eyed at the romantic pining. Vet offers to proportion his observations of Librarian but Byung Hoon cuts him off and says they may do their very own reconnaissance and broaden an correct profile
Byung Hoon takes Min younger alongside and they lurk within the library to observe Librarian. She appears capable and invested in her task, getting disappointed while she notices books with the closing web page torn out through vandals and wows to track down the miscreant.

Afterwards Byung Hoon asks Min young for her take on Librarian, and Min young’s impact is that Librarian is obsessed on her task and really shielding of her books. Byung Hoon tsk tsks at how far off the mark she is – Librarian is definitely unwell of her mundane routine and being very into her paintings is a manner to get by using, she’s into monitoring down the vandal of the books not due to the fact she loves the books however due to the fact she’s secretly a detective thriller buff. On her desk are notes about attending detective mystery talks and whilst the subsequent detective mystery book might be published

He doesn’t need to just accept a process where the fulfillment charge is so low, and Vet is simply too boring and regular for Librarian to fall for. unexpectedly guys arrive and seems they are mortgage sharks and they drag Byung Hoon to the roof and dangle him over the edge to pay up. Byung Hoon has no desire but to simply accept Vet’s task to make money to pay some of the mortgage back.

Min young appears very affected and Byung Hoon teases her approximately it. She pushes him away as soon as Librarian walks off, when all of sudden she nearly falls backward and Byung Hoon pulls her returned to safety and into his fingers once more.
COMMENTS
Isn’t this drama lovable? i love the breezy vibe, the movie-great directing and enhancing with a pleasing burnished veneer, and how the tale is unfolding with out a lot of exposition and treating the viewers like grade-schoolers. Characters have personalities without veering into the cool animated film (for now) and the beyond of all of us isn’t paraded around and will as an alternative absolutely be revealed in due route. The string of incredible cameo appearances as customers of the agency is lots of amusing but doesn’t crush the display, working because it’s no longer some kind of in-funny story (like Lee Seung Gi displaying up in exceptional Love) but is alternatively a sweet gesture from famous faces doing some thing amusing for the audience. This drama is to this point tons extra thrilling as a visual dinner party to digest not what's taking place (which is admittedly predictable and now not all that deep), but rather like a lovable dish to be savored the manner it’s meant to be, as a cohesive and exciting rom-com with lots of sensibility.
