Dear creators of Secret Love Affair:
How dare you?
As of this writing on Saturday morning,
your show is more than 48 hours from premiering in Korea, and subtitles probably won't be available for more like 72 hours.
And yet, you’ve already driven me to the brink of obsession.
First there were
the posters, which were burnished and glorious. Then there was the
30-second teaser, which was dramatic and sexy. And then you killed me
dead with the 22-minute preview. At first I swore I wouldn’t watch
it, not wanting to spoil the Christmas-morning experience of seeing
the drama’s first episode. But of course I gave in, and of course now I can’t
keep myself from hitting play again and again.
The preview is intense and
sexy, piano porn complete with a healthy dose of human erotica.
Everything about it is perfect—from Yoo In Ah’s awkwardness to
the way the leads’ faces reflect in the piano’s polished surface
to the intimate, bedside glow of the lighting.
