Synopsis
editThe series explores the relationship of two people as they go from being "just acquaintances" to "a genuine couple." Jin-ah (Son Ye-jin) is a district supervisor in her 30s at the coffeehouse franchise Coffee Bay (an actual Korean chain) and Jun-hui (Jung Hae-in) is an animator in his late 20s at video game developer Smilegate Entertainment. When he returns from working abroad, he reconnects with Jin-ah — who also happens to be best friends with Jun-hui's sister since childhood. The episodes give an intimate look into how they fall in love, struggle with their age differences (considered to be taboo in some circles), and find the courage to go public with their relationship to everyone around them.
The series also contains a secondary storyline about the struggles that female employees face in the company where Jin-ah works, as they try to climb the corporate ladder amidst sexual harassment, mistreatment, discrimination, and career sabotage from their male managers – all part of an unspoken culture of sexism considered to be normal among South Korean companies.

Production
editIn August 2017, it was announced that Ahn Pan-seok was on board to direct Something in the Rain (aka Pretty Sister Who Buys Me Food).[12]
In January 2018, Son Ye-jin joined the production, marking her return to the small screen after a five-year break.[13][14] Also in the same month, it was reported that Jung Hae-in had joined the cast.[15][16]
The first script reading was held on January 25, 2018, at the JTBC building in Sangam-dong.[17]
As a result of the drama's commercial success, a three-day vacation to Japan was awarded to the cast and crew, which was scheduled from May 29–31, 2018.[18][19]
Themes of taboos
editThe driving narrative within the story centers around South Korean taboos concerning relationships:
- Dating Taboos: An older female dating a younger male is considered scandalous.
- Familial Taboos: People who grow up without parents or have no parental figures in their lives are considered "unfit" for marriage.
- Job Taboos: People should only associate with those of a certain educational background, occupational position, or wealthy class status.
- Career Taboos: Women are expected to endure sexual harassment without complaint during team dinners to show they value "team unity".
- Drinking Taboos: It is customary to pour your colleague's glass first before and vice versa. If you pour for yourself, it indicates a fractured relationship.
- Food Taboos: Usually if an older woman frequently buys a younger male food, it indicates a brother-sister relationship.
