"Discovery of Romance" has three points to look out for: wild romance, the collaboration of the crew and staff and the relativity focused on the 2049 viewing generation.

- It's wild and honest

Dramas these days are all about 'real love'. Even entertainment shows talk about adult rated jokes and experiences. Fantasy romance from story books is long gone. "Discovery of Romance" is determined to show everyone what realistic love is.

"Discovery of Romance" aims for the real thing with the 'loser' concept. Teasers and posters of the drama have already hinted that it's not going to be about a typical sweet romance story. 20-year old couple Han Yeo-reum (Jung Yu-mi) and Kang Tae-ha (Eric Mun) break up after 5 years of not being able to resist each other, then they fight until the end. 30-year old couple Han Yeo-reum and Nam Ha-jin (Sung Joon) start fighting as soon as Kang Tae-ha appears in their lives. They go at each other like crazy, but love makes it up for them.

- It's trustworthy

"Discovery of Romance" is a "I Need Romance" sequel and already has a decent number of fanatics who are also fans of writer Jeong Hyeon-jeong. It's only the channel that has been changed but the relating love story is still there. It's also produced by Kim Seong-yoon from "Drama Special - Adolescence Medley".

Jung Yu-mi from "I Need Romance 2012", is in the cast. She is much supported by female fans even though the way she goes back and forth two men is something one would frown upon.

Eric Mun is Jung Yu-mi's ex-boyfriend in the drama. They have shown great chemistry before and this is by far Eric Mun's best synchronized character.

- It's relatable

"Discovery of Romance" will use lines that are beyond realistic. "Since when have you been sleeping with him?", "What's your justification of love?", "Love should make the man move, not the woman" and lines like that are just the tip of the iceberg.

The crew says, "Anyone who's been in a relationship, those who are or those who are likely to, will all be clapping their hands and relating to the drama code". Kim Seong-yoon the producer says, "Some will recall their past lovers and fill in those hearts who are single. All your romance will come back to life".
