Grade: A-

16 Episodes 

Yang Eun-Bi is a college student studying to become a high school teacher. She runs into Cha Chi-Soo, a spoiled rich kid who she mistakes for a professional her own age but he actually goes to the high school where she is trying to intern. Eun-Bi's father dies, leaving her his ramen shop (which she hates). A family friend, Choi Kang-hyuk, enters the scene and helps run the ramen shop. Kang-hyuk and Chi-Soo end up competing for Eun-Bi's affections, Chi-Soo's father disapproves the union, and threatens to disinherit Chi-Soo for liking working-class Eun-Bi. Other friends and romances parallel the main love triangle (Eun-bi's friend Kim Ba-Wool and snobby girl Yoon So-yi; Eun-bi's girlfriend Kang Dong-joo and their former volleyball coach).

*Very first Korean drama I ever watched, and I LOVED it! Will watch again!*
