        Sometimes the main leads of a drama are enough to determine whether to pick it up or not. Lee SungKyoung and Kim YoungKwang are proven veterans in the field with iconic hits like "Weightlifting Fairy Kim BokJoo" and "The Secret Life Of My Secretary" under their belt. In behind the scenes footage, they've already shown to have quite the chemistry, even joking around on set to lighten the mood. When together on screen, they produce a type of yearning that can only be brought out by experienced actors. They are perfectly suited for one another, as they are both model-turned-actors who are popular for their great acting skills. With only four episodes in, our eyes are locked on these two and how their relationship unfolds later on in the drama.

         

        2. Heartbreaking Backstory

        If you're a fan of heartache and a good backstory, then this drama is definitely for you. Shim WooJoo and Han DongJin's past is filled with a lot of scenes that will violently tug at your heartstrings, causing you to become completely immersed in the melodrama. Both characters live with a trauma that has caused them pain for years. But it's this because of this hurt and pain that you find yourself rooting for their eventual happiness.

         

        3. Amazing Cinematography


        Good acting is one thing and a great story is another — but to have amazing cinematography on top of all of that? That is the trifecta of an iconic drama in the making. From just the opening alone, the cinematography of "Call It Love" is absolutely breathtaking, presenting a soft tenderness that provides warmth all throughout your body. These beautiful shots continue throughout the drama and seem to only get better as the drama unfolds.

         

        4. Coziness In Revenge

        Now, the premise of this drama is centered around Shim WooJoo's revenge. But what if I told you it's actually surprisingly cozy and heartfelt — because that's certainly the case. "Call It Love" offers immense downtime in between the revenge plot to really build up the characters into likeable people. Their performance can very well make you forget about the revenge aspect and more so on the characters' happiness. The close-knit family, along with the gorgeous cinematography add to this immensely, making the story well-balanced and filled with so many amazing surprises.
