Intenso e real
Adorei este drama, recheado de situações realistas e profundas, com atuações muito boas, protagonistas bonitos e uma história de amor indestrutível. A paixão entre os dois brota de forma arrebatadora e luta contra as pressões de uma sociedade que julga pela classe social, porém nada consegue segurar a tensão que é estar perto de quem se ama . Várias cenas me causaram borboletas no estômago. A história não se perdeu e fiquei torcendo pelo amor dos dois. Gostaria de ver mais histórias como esta. Recomendo.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Flat ending
This drama had an interesting start. I wanted to watch a drama that focused on "real" people and not the high luxury lives of chaebols. Having worked in a bank myself, I wanted to see how they would navigate office romances.Truly wanted to like this drama but that ending was just What the???!!!
Mentally going through each episode, it really boils down to the lack of communication between the leads. Too many things left unsaid left room for doubts and suspicions which could have been prevented if they were more open with each other.
I saw the ML in Mr Sunshine and dr Romantic, so it was refreshing to see him portray a different role. To be honest, he was more likeable than the Fl. He was just that Real.....
The only other plus for me would be the OST. That was something I really enjoyed.
Overall, I don't think I would recommend this drama. The frustration that builds up every episode ending was just aggravated by that ending

Unexpected and Disappointing Ending
I can't believe we waited 16 Episodes for nothing. She's not normal and he waited the love he held for her in his heart for too many years. I have never been ao dissappointed in a Kdrama before. What was the point of the story? Both men deserved better treatment and gave up in other opportunities for the "hope" of being with the one they love.I would not recommend getting emotionally involved with this drama.
I loved the actors and would definitely want to see them in more series. I hope with a better ending

This show is just a roller coaster of emotions
Alright so I started watching this show and I didn’t like the FL character at first as she came across as being very cold and just plain rude. But I needed a filler show so I went back to it and binge watched it which I regret don’t do that ever. This show is basically about two people who are in love with each other but because of fear, pride and cowardice they don’t get together and end up dating other people to mask their feelings so they can move on. Obviously that balm backfires and they end up cheating on those two people with each other and hurting them and each other in the process. What I hated the most about this show was that when the couple could have been together they didn’t get together. But suddenly when the love became forbidden they realized that they are so right for each other and ended up hurting two people and cheating. I also hate the fact that in the show they never outrightly acknowledged that they cheated together. In fact the FL lies about cheating with the guy’s best friend in order to push away her current boyfriend and ML. Which makes no sense to me as she ended up hurting that poor guy badly and ML came back to her anyway. Which was a dumb decision considering he had just learned that she allegedly slept with his best friend but he did not even ask questions. In the end it seems like when the guy was confident to be with her she just kept running away. My conclusion is she was trying to make herself suffer as she felt she did not deserve to be happy after what she did especially considering her mother was a cheater too. But it teaches a good lesson that when it comes to love you should not do anything that will cause you to have regrets. I really hated how both ML and FL just had this thing for hesitating like little kids. I feel like this show was such a drag I skipped through that last few episodes because it was annoying you could figure out what they would say at this point because it was the same thing over and over again. I feel like this showe could maybe have been shorter 8 episodes. Or they could have used that time better. I don’t know how many times the FL ran away, I don’t know how many times times ML broke up with his girlfriend. I don’t know how many times that guy failed his police exam and we never understood why he kept failing and suddenly when the girl leaves he passes. Which I hated their relationship because the guy felt useless as he could not provide anything for her and as he felt insecure because of ML he goes out and buys a ring and then he gets offended that she doesn’t wear it or does not seem genuinely happy but he knew their relationship was dead anyway. They also made him seem a little too innocent but as ML said he seemed happier and more relaxed with other people, that girl was basically her provided. Also, the girl who came onto ML she never acknowledged her stupidity of going out with him when she knew he didn’t like her, and she said that she could fill in the gap of love for the both of them which was so naive. It was also annoying that they made the guy out to be sincere and that he couldn’t do anything without being convinced but then he dated a girl he didn’t like, cheated on her and could not get with the girl he liked because he was too much of a coward to express his love. Overall the acting was actually really good, ML and FL portrayed a passionate love and you just wanted them to be together and find happiness and you could even just see emotions in their eyes. The supporting characters was good but some of the storylines on the side didn’t make sense. I hated the fact that the ML and FL would make decisions based on what people say. The final episode made no sense to me it was just another drag. Episode 16 was a waste of time they still hadn’t learned from their lesson not expressing their love which was clearly present. The guy searched hi and low for her and when he got to see her he did nothing but all her with the loan like what? They just walked up the hill to go eat pork cutlets like okay all this for that?Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Hits and Misses
I had high hopes for this show. Although slow moving, I thought it would definitely pick up after Episode 10. Seemingly, it took a dive! Instead of picking up steam, it reversed to being slower and without direction. Unfortunate, since the acting is really great, and Sang-Su (played by Yoo Yoon-seok), is the greatest kisser on Kdrama tv. I became a fan! He makes it appear so authentic! That’s why it’s so disappointing, because the writer doesn’t grow the characters. Still, there are periods of great scenes (Hits), and potential storylines that were left inside an incubator (Misses). “The Interest of Love” needs to be rehabilitated with a second season (6-8-12 Episodes) to bring closure to the characters. Here’s hoping!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
The beauty, truthfulness and weakness of the human heart
As every episode goes by, the tone of this show drastically changes.It starts off as any stereotypical romance drama would, but then when the wheels start turning the train falls completely off the tracks and into a roller coaster ride of emotions.
It begins slowly, but theres something special about the way the story is told, something captivating, that shows its hints in the opening sequences, but never fully reveals itself until about halfway through the drama.
Disguised cleverly at first as a typical rom com, what it is at its core, is a story about how social status, past events and experiences, can shape our lives; and the beauty, truthfulness, and weakness of the human heart.
The actual plot itself, begins light and slow - watching the first few episodes is not enough to see what the show is truly about. This is not a rom com, although it looks like it at first glance, and the show really starts making some interesting plot choices towards the middle of the show to really set the gears in. The more I watch the drama, the more I'm confused and left guessing at the directing, it is almost like a few different genres in one but each told at different points within the story, much like how a Shakespeare film may play out.
One key point I liked was when some key morally controversial actions were taken, the music or film techniques didn't really lead us to feel a certain way, but rather the focus was on why this specific action was taken by the character and I was left empathizing and understanding a character did what they did.
The acting is once again, hard to judge by the first few episodes. I thought Moon Ga Youn's acting was limited by her role, but the more I watched the more I understood and became immersed and captivated by her acting. What seemed lifeless and hollow at the start felt like it had purpose later on.
Same with the music. It almost felt too diverse with a bevy of feel good love songs at the start, but the key memorable pieces showed themselves later on.
Will continue to watch and see where this takes us.

BORING and worst Female Lead EVER
This is my first time watching a K-drama (I always was C-dramas). This was the worst drama I've ever watched. So SLOW and BORING as hell. And god, the FL has to be the worst character of all time. Not one redeeming quality about her at all, yet all these men fawn over her, and the ML was obsessed but they had no chemistry. She constantly lied, created unnecessary, irrational drama that humiliated or hurt others she supposedly cared about just to concoct a narrative she thinks "is better." She always talked in circles - whenever someone would question her she always answers w/ a stupid rhetorical or condescending question!Literally a drama full of really unlikeable characters - other than the 2 moms (the ML's mom and the 2nd FL's mom), they were charming and cute.
Every other scene was either a flashback (for the 100th time), a shot of their phone screens either making a call or a text, or the characters staring, blank-faced at each other. The scenes just kept bouncing back and forth, moving onto a scene that leaves you utterly confused, then it goes and replays flashbacks to explain the confusing sequence of events....OVER AND OVER AGAIN.
I'd give this a ZERO star if possible.

I understood the point, but could be so much better.
What a waste of chemistry between the two leads… very frustrating caracters… I’ll give this note just because it was a really pretentious script… intended too much, delivered a slow pace show going nowhere... the caracters development it was hard to watch, the two leads looks like teenargers... I just can’t recommend this drama to anyone, the script could make some good changes from the novel, such as delivering a more satisfying ending ……………………………………………………………………………………….…………………………………………………………….……Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Just say no
Life is too short to drag myself down with drama's like this. The only positives were the OST and I do like both of the actors playing the male and female lead. However, there was too much hurt, too many lies, too much toxicity and too many words left unsaid. If a series is trying to be real, I get it and can appreciate that, but It wasn't even realistic in my opinion. Fortunately I haven't experienced a work environment with this much drama and mistrust. It was a frustratingly, draining watch .Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Only for mature audiences
The show has slow paceing but after 2nd episode you r going to love the storyThe goods:
The fresh pairing and just how cute they look with each other, are the reasons we began watching. Of course, an office romance and that too in a bank setting piqued our interest equally as much. Various stories of difficult customers, the demanding nature of the job and more are the points which we look forward to during the show.
The bads:
‘The Interest of Love’ is extremely slow! You will want to usher the characters to get to some place or begin speaking already while they dilly-dally their way in. A lot of pondering, observing, and unexplained wondering is spread throughout the first two episodes but from episode 3 show will catch up.

Bad Mess Of A Show
This is just not an interesting show; a potentially great story about rich and poor in Korea got lost in the messy four-way love saga that left me actively resenting the male lead protagonist for how he treated his girlfriend whilst pining for someone else. I would not recommend anyone to watch this as it's just not very good.Moon Ka-Young is great but she stands alone in her acting. Her peers just aren't very good and their characters lack depth or nuance. Kdramas and their love triangles are tedious. The best kdramas are the ones that don't make this subplot the front and centre of the show.

WHAT WAS THAT FINALE ?
i was STRESSED, you mean everything happened FOR NOTHING??? Maybe I'll be kinda problematic for this opinion but it's just my perception.I like sad endings, i rlly love the feeling of nostalgia and the way things change and that's why I'm a huge fan of dramas like 2125 or moon lovers, but this show REALLY stressed tf outta me 😭, it was confusing, had unnecessary plot twists and a bad ending. It's really sad bc it had incredible memorable moments and the chemistry between the main characters was amazing. I think i am even more disappointed bc i was CRYING at that scene where migyeong and sangsu were in the car and they were breaking up, it was incredibly done and i completely loved it. I srsly think that they stole the show and i do not say that the other actors didn't did well it's just that sangsu and migyeong rlly stole my heart. Idk, At first it was kinda boring then it got better and finally it just went worse 😞 i would not rewatch the show
