This is more of an everyday life drama. I really liked it and it's easy to just keep watching episode after episode. It's got good flow. There's not a lot of conspiracy or over the top stuff going on. It was really relaxing and calming to watch. I only got bored at Episode 16. The dilemmas that the drama presents are also great. They have some creative ideas to keep the story moving and exploring the characters and the relationships more. I liked seeing how they would respond to a variety of circumstances. Romance I love that Hyun Wook likes Yoo Kyung from the start. He's pretty gruff but I was impressed that even at the antagonistic stage of the relationship he cheered her up by telling her all the great things about her. When Hyun Wook starts out the list of all the reasons he doesn't want to like her (I hate this cliché) Yoo Kyung has none of it. Yasss. Hyun Wook is pretty mean to Yoo Kyung but she gives it back to him which is awfully satisfying. Gong Hyo Jin is awesome in her chemistry because she always has these genuine moments of connection. And they're always unique to the couple. Hyun Wook I like that he's not the all-powerful rich chaebol. He actually gets stepped on quite a lot by people who poke at his confidence and basically if anyone says, “Why, you scared?” then he feels he can't say anything back which is such stupid logic. Yoo Kyung Right from the start, she's great. Competent and confident. That's all I could ask for in a heroine. I like that no one's stepping on her and she knows how to avoid trouble. She is incredibly stubborn and persistent and hard working. Yoo Kyung really wants to learn and she doesn't mind laying down her pride for the sake of her education. She's smart. I like it. I like that she keeps the hero on his toes and she's really upfront. She'll let people know when she's unhappy with them. She also doesn't forgive easy which I appreciated. She's definitely not a goody two shoes. She's the kind of feisty that I can understand why a guy would like it. She's fun. Kim San - second male lead Yoo Kyung - “Is scaring me, lying to me, your hobby?” Kim San - “Yes.” Sae Young She's a bit hoity toity but I liked that she was rivals with Yoo Kyung and was so civil about it. I also started to like her when the boys started to rebel against her gender and she told them where they could shove their sexism. Secondary Characters The girls were just plain annoying. I had no interest in them and skipped over all their conversation and schemes. The guys of the kitchen had a much more interesting dynamic with bro-ship and loyalty and competition between the “Italy” and Korean team. The Korean team got more and more annoying and rude to Seo Yoo Kyung. I was so frustrated with their stupidity and their illogical thought processes in the way they blamed her for everything constantly or tried to cut her out. The Italian team was a lot more fun and of course better looking! Haha. Also, the beautiful Choi Jin Hyuk is one of the boys from Italy and his voice.... *sigh....so great.
