36 parts Complete MatureWhen Woo Seulgi, a spirited and delightfully messy 23-year-old fresh out of university, arrives in Seoul, she's hoping for a fresh start.
What she gets instead is Yoo Jaeyi, her meticulously organized and seemingly icy 25-year-old nurse roommate.
Their shared apartment, meant to be a sanctuary, quickly becomes a battleground of passive-aggressive notes, clashing personalities, and the furry, chaotic presence of Seulgi's secret weapon: Boksil, her mischievous Maltese.
Seulgi, despite her loud exterior, harbors a hidden truth-a fierce attraction to women she's desperately trying to conceal behind.
Jaeyi, outwardly composed and mature, secretly battles her own inner demons, including a possessive streak she keeps carefully hidden.
Both women, commoners from the provinces, are stretched thin by the demands of their low-paying jobs and the financial burdens of supporting their families-Seulgi's younger brother, Jihun (20), and Jaeyi's parents and younger sister, Eunbi (18).
Their initial hatred reaches a peak after Boksil's innocent destruction of a prized possession.
But forced proximity and shared struggles begin to chip away at their defenses.
As their carefully constructed facades crumble, they discover a common ground in their relentless pursuit of stability and their deep love for their families.
The subtle shift from bitter rivals to hesitant friends, and then to something undeniably romantic, is a journey of quiet glances, lingering touches, and a growing understanding that transcends their initial animosity.
Kiss The Girl:Next Door is a heartwarming tale of two women bound by circumstance, who find unexpected love amidst the chaos of adulting, financial strain, and the noisy presence of a small, fluffy dog.
Can their blossoming affection survive their clashing worlds and the secrets they both carry?
