Something in the Rain lit. Pretty Sister
Who Buys Me Food) is a
2018 South Korean television series directed by Ahn Pan-seok and
starring Son Ye-jin and Jung Hae-in. The series marks Son Ye-jin's small screen comeback after
five years. It was broadcast on JTBC every Friday and
Saturday at 23:00 (KST) from March 30 to May 19,
2018. It was also aired on the subscription service Netflix with subtitles
The series
explores the relationship of two people as they go from being "just
acquaintances" to "a genuine couple". Jin-ah (Son
Ye-jin) is a 30-something
district supervisor at the coffeehouse franchise Coffee Bay (an actual Korean
chain) and Joon-hee (Jung Hae-in) is a 20-something animator at video game developer Smilegate Entertainment. When he
returns from working abroad, he reconnects with Jin-ah — who also happens to be
the best friend with Joon-hee's sister since childhood. The episodes give an
intimate look into how they fall in love, struggle with their age differences
(considered to be Taboo in some circles), and find the courage to go public
with their relationship to everyone around them.
A secondary
storyline follows the struggles that female employees face in the company
Jin-ah works for as they try to climb the corporate ladder amidst severe sexual
harassment from male managers. A culture considered to be normal but unspoken
in South Korean companies.
