Spoiler Alert
One of the hottest K-Dramas right now has to be Crash Course In Romance.
The show follows a star maths tutor Choi Chi Yeol (played by Jung Kyung Ho), who meets shop owner Nam Haeng Seon (Jeon Do Yeon).
Throughout the series, love, friendship, and heartbreak have taken netizens on a rollercoaster ride of emotions. Each character has cemented a place in the hearts of viewers, whether it’s for all the right or all the wrong reasons.
Amongst the star-studded cast, two characters becoming firm favorites are Lee Sun Jae (played by Lee Chae Min) and Seo Geon Ho (played by Lee Min Jae).
After being reacquainted with each other in the funniest way, the two seemingly both had feelings for Nam Hae Yi.
Despite their differences, the two have slowly become netizens’ favorite “couple” after they’ve slowly gone from enemies to friends.
After defending Hae Yi from bullies, the two students are made to write apology letters. While Geon Hu doesn’t want to do it, Sun Jae takes his paper and writes it, so his new “ally” won’t get into trouble.
The new action even made Geon Hu’s heart flutter, and it was definitely the start of an iconic friendship.
The latest episode has shone a light on the friendship between the two characters, making everyone hope that it continues like this rather than a rivalry over Hae E.
During the last episode, Hae Yi is in hospital after being knocked down by a car when being chased by the villainous Mr. Ji. Yet, after Mr. Ji wrote a suicide note on her phone, many thought her accident was on purpose.
Hae Yi’s best friend, Sun Jae, then worries that it’s his fault because, before the accident, his mom spoke to Hae Yi after she wanted to reveal that the midterm paper had been leaked.
With so much guilt, Sun Jae went to the roof of the school and recalled everything he thought meant it was his fault Hae E had almost died.
As soon as he took a step, Geon Hu ran across the roof and pulled him down, exclaiming, “What the hell are you doing?”
Despite sharing mutual feelings for Hae Yi, Geon Hu wouldn’t stop until Sun Jae was away from the roof, even if it meant punching him.
The two then stayed lying down on the roof, talking through the problems. It seemed like the friendship between Sun Jae and Geon Hu was truly cemented.
Even after the incident, when Sun Jae was on his way home after visiting Hae Yi in the hospital, Geon Hu made sure to message him to make sure that he was okay.
After the episode aired, netizens couldn’t get over the maturity and development of the characters through one scene.
