    Episode 2 (Something in the Rain)

    Something in the Rain (aka Pretty Sister who buys me Food) is probably the best possible answer to how romantic a series can get without being cringeworthy. But apart from being a series that broke the norms of romance, the show also tried to create awareness and break multiple norms and taboos of the modern age societies which are prevalent in not only Korea but around the world. So join me while I try to discover the romance between Yoon Jin-ah and Seo Joon-hee. Background score credits: Sock Hop by Kevin MacLeod. Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4387-sock-hop.
