The Story
A young teacher has avoided dating her whole life because of a family curse that makes them turn into dogs if they kiss someone. But following a work drinking party, she kisses a fellow teacher, mistaking him for the man she has a crush on. Now every night for 100 nights, she turns into a cute little dog. And after that time she will become a dog forever, unless she can break the curse. Breaking it requires the same person who kissed her to kiss her again in dog form. But she has two major problems. First, the guy she kissed doesn’t seem interested in her and second, he is deathly afraid of dogs. So she sets out to befriend him, help him overcome his fear of dogs, and eventually gain his help in breaking the spell. And as she gets to know him, she will discover that this teaching rival that she had once despised as cold and uninteresting actually has a sweet, charming side.
Should I Watch
“A Good Day to be a Dog” is a light fantasy rom-com. The concept itself is interesting and original, but the plot line wears a bit thin, even for a shortened 14 episode format. Cha Eun Woo is adorable, as always, and the cute dog scenes are hard to hate if you are an animal lover. If you are looking for a sweet, simple romance, this one certainly isn’t bad. The lead couples’ story is fun and their chemistry is well-played. But if repetitive memory sequences and obvious story fillers bother you, you might want to save yourself the frustration and find something with a bit more substance. I give “A Good Day to be a Dog” a 7 out of 10 ramen.
