The Potato Lab
감자연구소Checked and re-read
A mountain-valley romcom set in a potato research centre, and the setting is funnier and more charming than it has any right to be. The rivalry-to-romance arc works, episode four is the high point, and the twelve episodes are pleasant throughout if never urgent. Two side plots are left unanswered. A breath of fresh air that does not overstay its welcome.
A potato researcher with 12 years of experience who is working on a secret project and a newly appointed eccentric director go head to head before falling for each other in a sweet office romance.
Slow start Episode 3. The research station setting and the rivalry both land here, and episode 4 is the best hour before a long slide.
