The last person Jessie Kim was expecting to see was her high school nemesis, Daniel Choi, who used to call her “Messy Jessie.” And wouldn’t you know it that when they ran into each other, he’d grown into an absolute hunk and she looked like, well, Messy Jessie?
But what can you expect when you’ve had to move home to Tennessee with your parents after getting laid off from your investment banking job? While she tries to figure out what her next steps are, she decides to resurrect her Korean cooking channel on YouTube, where she shares cooking and meal-prep tips for busy people.
Of course, the road to success isn’t as smooth as she thought. While an unexpected collaboration with Daniel might actually prove valuable, she’s totally forgotten how overbearing her parents—especially her mother—can be.
When Daniel takes another job, she doesn’t realize how close to home it will hit—and what will it mean for her future, and maybe a future with him?
The truth is, So We Meet Again is a lot more fiction than the rom-com I expected. It’s focused more on the relationship between Jessie and her mom as well as a look at topics like racism and sexism in the workplace. But it’s still funny and adorable and sweet, and I’m still crushing on Daniel.
