Summer Strike: A Premiere Watch of the Hottest Releases

Summer Strike: A Premiere Watch of the Hottest Releases

Time slot: Monday-Tuesday
Broadcaster: ENA
Genre: Slice-of-life
Episode count: 12

Reasons to watch: The reasons to watch this drama practically write themselves, if you ask me. A young woman (Seolhyun) escaping from her dead-end life to frolic in the countryside and enjoy her life. A shy librarian (Im-Shi-wan) with whom she strikes up a friendship. Now normally, I would be the first person to complain that this drama was pre-produced and set to air in November when it should have been broadcast in the summer… but in this case, I actually think it’s the perfect breath of fresh sea air, sunshine, and sweetness we all need right now.

TL;DR: Slice-of-lifeness, Im Shi-wan as a librarian, beautiful scenery, summer vibes in November
