This series has captivated audiences by showcasing a delightful blend of youthful romance and heartwarming family dynamics, making the daily lives of Hyereung-dong’s residents feel uniquely special in their charm.

Viewers have laughed, cried, and felt a rush of emotions while witnessing the evolving relationship between Choi Seung-hyo (portrayed by Jung Hae-in) and Bae Seok-ryu (played by Jung So-min), who have transitioned from friends to lovers. The bond between Jeong Mo-eum (played by Kim Ji-eun) and Kang Dan-ho (played by Yoon Ji-on), who support and uplift each other, has also resonated deeply with the audience.

Jung Hae-in, Jung So-min, and their fellow cast members expressed their fondness for the show and their melancholic feelings about its impending end.

Jung Hae-in noted, “As a viewer myself, I’ve truly enjoyed watching it, and I’m saddened to see it conclude.” Jung So-min shared, “It feels surreal that filming has wrapped up, and I can’t believe the series is coming to an end. I believe it’s because I’ve never fully let go of ‘Love Next Door’ in my heart.”

Kim Ji-eun mentioned, “Watching the show weekly brought back memories from filming, so it’s bittersweet that only two episodes remain. I’ve grown so fond of it, and I’ll treasure these moments for a long time, reminiscing about them.”
