A Hidden Gem of Romcom
“Into The Ring” is a delightful K-drama that combines politics, romance, and quirky humor. With a fresh premise and endearing characters, it stands out as a hidden gem in the romcom genre.
Story (9.5/10): Politics isn’t usually my cup of tea, but “Into The Ring” struck a perfect balance. The drama revolves around Goo Se Ra (played by Nana), a woman in her late 20s who decides to run for a spot in the District People’s Council. The 90-day work schedule and decent pay attract her, but little does she know that her journey will be filled with unexpected twists. The show keeps you guessing, and the portrayal of politicians is both entertaining and insightful.
Acting/Cast (10/10): Nana shines as Goo Se Ra. Her transformation from an idol to a promising actress is commendable. Park Sung Hoon (Gong Myung) complements her perfectly. Their chemistry is palpable, and their lovey-dovey moments feel genuine. Plus, they share skinship even on their personal Instagram accounts—something rare in the industry.
Music (10/10): The soundtrack enhances the drama’s emotional beats. It’s memorable and adds depth to the scenes.
Rewatch Value (9.0/10): Despite a slightly rushed ending, I’d gladly rewatch “Into The Ring” for the sweet moments between Sera and Gong Myung. Their relationship development is heartwarming.
In summary, “Into The Ring” is a well-crafted romcom that surprises with its wit, heart, and relatable characters. It’s a drama worth bookmarking and sharing with friends. If you’re tired of clichés, give this gem a chance—it won’t disappoint!
