“The Interest of Love” scene where the boyfriend refused the ‘Volve car’ gift from his girlfriend draws mixed responses from viewers

Viewers re-examined a scene in the recently ended drama “The Interest of Love”.

We’re usually happy when receiving gifts. However, there are cases in which the receiver doesn’t feel good at all. It’s when they think the gift is too much for them to receive. Imagine you receive clothes worth millions of won and a car worth tens of millions of won, it would be very pressure.

The above story is part of the content in episode 9 of JTBC’s drama “The Interest of Love”, which aired on January 18th.

Park Mi Kyung (Geum Sae Rok) gave Ha Sang Soo (Yoo Yeon Seok) a car as a surprise gift. It was the XC60 foreign car released by Volvo Cars. The price of an XC60 car starts at 60 million won minimum.

She pointed at the car that was approaching from afar and said, “Senior, your car is coming”, adding “It’s my surprise gift”. Despite receiving an expensive gift, Ha Sang Soo was not in a good mood. It is because the clothes he was wearing are also gifts from Park Mi Kyung.

Ha Sang Soo told Park Mi Kyung, “This gift is too much”. He added, “Even these clothes. I will drive my own car”, and refused Mi Kyung’s gift car.

This scene was shared on various SNS sites and online communities. Many netizens responded, “I understand why Sang Soo refused the car”, “If you think of it in a realistic way, it would be too much pressure to receive the car”, etc.

On the other hand, some reacted, “I don’t understand. She’s a golden spoon so she may think 60 million won is a small amount”, “If you already received her gift once, then just take it. Why did you refuse her?”, etc.
