She is devastated when she learns that she is most likely not his twin sister. Geon Woo is a refreshing departure from most K-Drama heirs. He is kind to Jung Joo and jokingly states that she should meet him in the future, when she has become a cool woman.
Jung Joo and Geon Woo have frequent encounters, following a 10-year absence. Jung Joo initially recognized Geon Woo, while he is attending a reunion involving friends from his polo club. The unlikely pair is reunited while waiting for standby seats, in the airport.
3. The Hong Sisters deliver their unique blend of magical realism and morality to the series.
The MBC series marks the K-Drama return of the fantastic screenwriting team, the Hong Sisters. Siblings Hong Mi Ran and Hong Jeung Eun regularly challenge audiences to embrace impossible circumstances and to approach their works through suspension of disbelief. In "Warm and Cozy," the situation does not involve supernatural powers but there is an improbable level of coincidence.
4. B1A4's Jinyoung returns to K-Drama as Jung Poong San.
Jinyoung is adorable in the supporting role of Jung Poong San. "Warm and Cozy" provides an opportunity for the 23-year-old acting idol to shed the angst of his recent role in the teen musical "Peserverance, Goo Hae Ra," while embracing his comedic side.
5. A lighthearted romantic comedy is a welcome addition to mid-week programming.
2015 has been plagued by angst-ridden psychological dramas, which have provided compelling viewership but were a far departure from the genre of easygoing romantic comedy. "Warm and Cozy" kicked off with the slightly bizarre and unique premise that has elevated Hong Sisters' dramas beyond the works of other screenwriters.
"Warm and Cozy" airs on Wednesdays and Thursdays in the 10 p.m. KST time slot.
