Do ppl actually ship the couple in Now We're Breaking Up?
For me, a pairing has to have great action scenes+sparking chemistry+they get each other+they compromise+have each other's backs+look good together+no toxicity to be a power couple.
I'd nominate Sae Bom + Ji Hyun ('Happiness') for the Best Couple of 2021. They're such a badass duo, plus them being besties and always looking out for each other just makes them such a powerful pairing!
Just for fun, I'd give my own nominations based on the vibes they give from what I've come across online (I've only watched Taxi Driver and Happiness) 😁:
"Vigilante Couple" Ahn Go Eun+Kim Do Gi (Taxi Driver)
"Soft Couple" Hye Jin+Doosik (Hometown Cha-cha-cha)
"Couple on Crack" Ja Hyung+Vincenzo
"Toxic & Passionate Couple" Yoo Nabi+Jae On (Nevertheless)
"Tragic & Loving Couple" Duk Im+Yee San (The Red Sleeve)
