Attic Cat Episode 1
Attic Cat starring Kim Rae Won and Jung Da Bin
Law student Lee Kyung Min is used to getting what he wants: raised by indulgent grandparents, he spends his days chasing girls and enjoying the finer things in life. Spoiled and selfish, there's only one person he really cares about - Na Hye Ryun, a fellow student from a wealthy family. But unbeknownst to Kyung Min, Hye Ryun has her heart set on someone else.
When Hye Ryun ignores his initial advances, Kyung Min tries to become closer to her by getting to know one of her friend, Nam Jung Eun. Having failed employment exams repeatedly, Jung Eun, the daughter of a poor family, has been reduced to selling newspapers to get enough money to rent an apartment. When things go sour money-wise for Jung Eun, Kyung Min jumps in to help, hoping to impress Hye Ryun. His attempt fails, and the sweet Jung Eun is furious when she finds out he's been pursuing her to get to Hye Ryun. Soon Kyung Min's cash flow runs out, and he decides that it's time to collect on Jung Eun's debt. When his grandparents turn him away from home, Jung Eun is too kind-hearted to refuse when he demands that she let him move in. What will happen when a selfish, demanding young lawyer and a self-sacrificing but stubborn young woman live together?

I'm surprised by the many poor reviews, but I actually enjoyed this drama, many of the scenes made me laugh out loud especially the ones when Kyung Min would get jealous of Jung Eun/Chief. I thought the acting by the lead actor & actress was great. I first saw Jeong Da Bin in the movie He Was Cool and I thought she did an excellent job, I wish I could see more of her films but unfortunately she left this world too early.

I decided to watch this drama because I had heard some good reviews. Big mistake! The main leads have no chemistry, and their interactions are nothing but annoying. Don't get me wrong, I love me some bickering couple working their way to love, but this series takes the bickering and fighting to the extend that the relationship screams unhealthy. And the main lead actress.. ughhh couldn't stand her in this series. so shrill, irrational, weak and annoying.

I don't think I can continue this drama. The lead female is too much of a pushover. I've seen weak women, but this is really too much. I think it will only get worse as this drama progresses. I'll try to hang in there, but no promises. UPDATE I did finish this drama. I could have skipped this one. I'm just not attracted to habitually weak women characters, it just infuriates me! I could not see how she came to be so gaga over this guy who only used her. Moreover his character, though rich, leeched off a poor hard-working person. Not a good look. It seems like the writers took a formula from the drama catalog w/out adequately developing their characters & adding some flavor, which in the end is the only thing that separates one drama from the next.

Story started out ok but was missing something. The leads didn't have a spark of chemistry, they

I wanted to like this drama because I like the cohab-situation in which the actors are placed, but it didn't quite do it for me. Although this drama had it's funny, sweet, intense and romantic moments, it didn't stand out like other Kdramas of the same genre. Other dramas that did this romance/living situation plot better: Personal Taste, 9 End 2 Outs, Shining Inheritance, Sungkyunkwan Scandal, and Smile, You.
