This drama is a cutesy, cliche drama! I love this drama because it never gets too dramatic and yet it still manages to kin my interest! I wouldn't recommend this if you're looking for a deep drama with emotional turmoil but its still a nice watch! As you watch the characters slowly fall for each other you see more problems arise keeping them apart. Its highly cliched but if it isn't broken don't fix it! I would recommend this drama if you enjoy fluffy romances, strong female lead, and reverse harem! I really enjoyed this one!

Literally watch any other show.

This is one of the worst k drama to become popular in recent years. Defiantly the worst K drama in Netflix (US). Editing is very bad. It has weird transition and cut scenes. Its like the creators thought that if nothing cool happens every few minute the audience will lose interest. Characters are all cartoon. You can tell who is good or bad immediately. May be this show was meant for kids. All the actors seems trying their best with the crappy writing. But lead female didn't seem to fit the bill. Her character is supposed to be smart, strong, respects elderly, beats up grown adults in fight, does multiple job to save up for college.....typical strong female lead things convincingly. But she didn't seem to be able portray those thing. Literally watch any other show instead you'll have a better time.

SO at first I really enjoyed the plot line but as I was continuing on... I just felt the plot dragged on a little bit and I just kept watching it because of my OTP they were so cute!!! Also, I think what also kept me going was the OST and the comedy elements in the series. Still recommend it though because it brings up some serious issues with regards to the rich and poor and how we treat people in society. I think that although the drama was not as exciting as the their ones I’ve watched, Itm”’s still good.

Initially I put this drama as of no interest to me, since I'm usually not fond of cinderella/chaebol plotlines. I mean, aside from a few that I did like, the genre as a whole tend to annoy me somewhat. But then as time passed, I got to see Jung Ilwoo, Park Sodam and Ahn Jaehyun's other works and thought about giving the series a proper look.

And I guess it worked out in the end, as it didn't take long for me to like the characters and premise. For one, I enjoyed this drama much better than The Heirs as the plot here was much more fun to watch. For one thing, as much as Hyunmin was so much of a womanizer and assholey at first glance, he's much better than a certain Kim Tan in that it didn't feel like he's being pretentious for being a rich kid or act disbelievingly flamboyant. And later on Hyunmin's characterization expanded even more to reveal that he wasn't in fact, quite the superficial person that we initially thought of. In that sense, Hyunmin's character was better developed than Kim Tan and that other character the other actor had played prior. As in for one, Hyunmin's action for 'bullying' the person he truly liked was out of their own sense of guilt and felt undeserving of being loved.

Park Sodam here played the main female character Eun Hawon, our titular Cinderella who didn't quite believe in the fairy tale magic. Have to say that I like Ha Won's version of the cinderella trope; in that despite how her life was a mess, she didn't let that get her down. And she can fend for herself too, so as much as her step family treating her badly she never let that bring her down. That said, Jiwoon's character already had his own charm in the kind of angsty boy type. Like he wasn't a family rebel for no reason and his bad relationship with his grandfather stemmed from something that happened in the past. It's not quite the Prince Charming one could've expected but when paired with our cinderella, the two do look good together!

Seriously can't help with the comparison with The Heirs since there was a lot of common elements between these two that kept reminding me. Not to mention Boys Over Flowers, though I'm more into the original JP adaptations and not bothering with the Korean one, especially with the whole 'making the girl miserable' trope. Even then, I have seen a lot of different version of the F4-type tropes in many dramas and some dramas tend to overplay that trope to the point of annoyance. But surprisingly, this drama kept amusing me. There were even moments that I can't help feeling my heart flutter as we see more of the apparent love square between Hyunmin-Ha Won-Jiwoon-Hyeji. Though you might blame that to the very good ost popping out at good timing.

Honestly I never thought I'd end up enjoying this drama a lot. The story elements were pretty balanced in a way that Ha Won's family was like the usual cinderella setting aka the stepmother and stepsister treating her badly and stripping her of any basic neccessities to the point that she needed to be self-reliant. Twist here would be that the dad was lead to think that Ha Won wasn't his child due to a misunderstanding thus overlooking the problems in the household. The issues within the Haneul household was also pretty decently set, like the reasons why the grandsons were in bad terms with the elders was understandable and it wasn't just typical poor people weren't a match with rich people trope (thus they would do their cruealest act to separate the couple). Heck, I like the grandfather and I'm glad that he wasn't written as just a rich old man with shallow personality who only thinks of profit. Also, the way the different people start to care and grow affections in the drama were also written well and the love didn't just happen suddenly and you can really see the chemistry happening between these relationship. Have to say that this was pretty rare in dramas of these tropes as usually the tropes can be exagerated too much, but it was executed very well here without making it feel too cliche'd.

The story is quite good even though the characters personalities sometimes are illogical.
This drama is well directed but Ahn Jae Hyeon's acting is still weak.
Other actors and actress are ok but no one's acting in here is oustanding.
Male and female lead have good chemistry. They are so cute together.

No entiendo por qué he tardado tanto en verla!!
La verdad es que este drama ha estado en mi lista de pendientes desde su estreno en 2016 y siempre he tenido muchas ganas de verlo porque es bastante famoso. Sin embargo, siempre había otro drama que se me cruzaba por delante y siempre lo dejaba atrás. Pero gracias a vuestras recomendaciones me propuse verlo y os lo agradezco muchísimo!!
La verdad es que es un drama en el que he estado todo el tiempo riéndome, o al menos en gran parte y tampoco he sentido que haya ningún capítulo o trama de relleno que haga pesada la historia.
Lo único que me arrepiento es de no haberlo visto en el año en que se publicó cuando era más jóven porque siento que si la hubiera visto en aquel momento se hubiera convertido en uno de mis favoritos y ahora mismo esta cuenta sería para convencer a todo el mundo de que viera la serie jajajajajajajajajaja. Sin embargo, a pesar de eso, me ha gustado muchísimo y la recomiendo mucho.
Si te gustan las historias tipo Boys Over Flowers o The Heirs, la verdad es que no deben perder el tiempo e ir corriendo a verla.

Bien empezemos.
Desde hace tiempo me recomendaron este drama, incluso una amiga lo miro mientras estaba en emision y me dijo que estaba genial, asi que decidí darle una oportunidad.

Para empezar...¿Porqué lo llamaron así? ¿Cenicienta y los cuatro caballeros? Empezemos con lo de Cenicienta. En el primer episodio nos cuentan la historia de Cenicienta y la protagonista nos da a entender que eso no sucede en la vida real, y lo que la historia nos quiere decir es que sí le puede pasar.
A mí me desesperan mucho las protagonistas que son "dejadas" , si bien es cierto que nunca se dejaba de las demás personas, nunca le hizo frente a su madrastra ni hermanastra, (muy bonita). Se veía hasta tonta.

Ahora...¿4 caballeros? Para ser honesta, yo llegué a pensar que la serie seria tipo Hana Yori Dango, ya saben la idea los F4 que son ricos y tienen poder y que ayudan a la chica. En ciertas partes si lo eran, pero no se veian tan cool. Y no eran 4, solo eran 3, el guardaespaldas realmente solo estuvo con ellos los primeros episodios, no se creo un lazo tan fuerte de amistad.

Ahora, en cuanto al romance. Fue interesante la idea de que Hyun Min quisiera a la protagonista, aunque solo era por capricho pero quería que fuera para el. Se preocupaba por ella, y en algun punto de la serie llego a querer estar con ella, pero de la nada , volvio a renacer el amor que le tenía a Hye Ji (que le falto piso para arrastrarse porque basicamente todo el programa se la pasó llorando, buscandolo, le encantaba el rechazo y ya cuando el chavito quizo dijo PUES AHORA NO...porque...mujeres no? ) y se olvidó completamente de la protagonista en el sentido amoroso. Y eso como que aburrió un poco ya que el unico impedimento que tenían Ha Won y Ji Woon era el abuelo que no queria que estuvieran juntos porque ella es pobre y se sabe que en corea hoy en día eso influye mucho para las relaciones, sobre todo si eres de una familia dueña de la empresa mas importante de Corea.

Ji Woon, me gusto el personaje , aunque a Il Woo no le queda mucho eso de ser cabroncillo, cosa que al final se le fue quitando y termino siendo la cosa mas linda de todo el mundo ♥.
En cuanto al pobre de Seo Woo, definitivamente quedo en el olvido su relacion con la protagonista, porque como siempre casi no tenian tiempo de pasarla solos y mucho menos de confesarle sus sentimientos (me recordó al papel que hizo su compañero de banda, YongHwa, en la serie You´re Beautiful) . Me gusto que la amiga de la prota, se volviera cercano a el, y me hubiera gustado ver algo entre más entre ellos.

Le falto un villano mas fuerte a la historia, ya que la madrastra y la hermanastra a pesar de que eran muy feas con ella, yo sentia mas coraje de que se dejara, a sentir odio por hacerle eso. Y al final me agradaron esos personajes, las mostraron como una forma muy chusca de como la gente quiere subir desesperadamente de nivel socio-economico en Corea. En cuanto a la esposa del presidente, la comprendo en lo que hizo pero no la justifico, yo que el presidente no la hubiera perdonado pero quiza no quedó muy bien de la operación por eso la perdono.

En resumen el drama es regular, si te atrapa pero aburre en muchas partes. Me gusto mucho el OST , obvio ya lo descargué. No lo volvería a ver, al menos no dentro de poco tiempo.

Essa é a primeira resenha que eu escrevo, não sei se alguém vai chegar a ler porque ela está escrita em português, mas eu acho que realmente quero escrevê-la.

Esse drama chegou na Netflix dias atrás e eu comecei a ver logo quando estreou e tinha uma premissa muito boa, mas me decepcionei um pouco.

Comecemos pelo nome "Cinderela e os quatro cavaleiros" mas... Realmente tinha a necessidade de ser quatro? Quer dizer, a Ha-Won praticamente passou a trama toda alternando entre o Hyun-min e o Ji-Woon, além disso, o Hyun-Min perde 100% do interesse pela Ha-won em segundos, assim que Hye-Ji começa a aparecer mais na trama.

(Falando nessa personagem, eu posso descrevê-la com uma palavra: Irritante) Gosto muito da Naeun, mas essa personagem não me desceu desde o início. Típica garota mimada que não aceita um não como resposta, passou o drama todo correndo atrás dos primos ricos, indo ao encontro de um quando o outro a rejeitava friamente, mas isso a fazia desistir deles? Não! De uma menina mimada passou a ser muito chata, desde suas expressões faciais até o fato dela realmente ser muito mimada (mas por alguma razão, os sentimentos de Hyun-Min por ela reaparecem do nada, sem explicação ou desenvolvimento, na minha opinião muito forçado)

Seo-Woo aparentava ter sentimentos puros pela Ha-Won, poderia ter sido um romance muito lindo, mas o roteirista aparentemente ignorou esse fato, fazendo com que o coitado ficasse de lado em 95% do drama e o Yoon-Sung que nem deveria ser um cavaleiro, pois teve 0 momentos com a principal.

O desenvolvimento do drama também deixou a desejar, por mais que tenha tido cenas em que ri bastante e gostei da interação dos personagens, a missão da Ha-Won de fazer os primos começarem a agir como uma família feliz, achei um pouco sem sentido, já que ela também não sabia como é ter uma família unida e feliz, mas entendo que foi essencial para a trama e também tiveram momentos que ficou realmente cansativo de assistir, cheio de momentos forçados e o excesso de flashbacks. Chegou uma hora em que eu não via a hora de acabar de assistir, porque realmente queria saber como iria acabar, apesar de ter sido um pouco previsível a meu ver: "A garota pobre que se apaixona pelo cara rico, a família dele não aprova o relacionamento, mas no fim a família do cara sempre acaba aceitando o relacionamento dos dois e eles vivem felizes para sempre." Eu realmente prefiro ver doramas sem conflitos nas famílias dos protagonistas por causa da classe social.

Por fim, eu não me apeguei a nenhum personagem (Talvez o Seo-Woo e a Ha-Won) Também não torci fortemente pelo casal principal, eu só queria chegar no fim logo.

Cinderela e os quatro cavaleiros é o típico clichê que promete um triângulo amoroso interessante, mas essa parte foi desenvolvida muito mal até porque, não tiveram momentos em que a personagem pensasse "Os dois/três gostam de mim, estou confusa, qual devo escolher?" Na verdade, os sentimentos dela ficaram muito discretos por um longo tempo, eu não imaginei que ela ficaria com o Ji-Woon, e como eu disse, teve um fim previsível para um clichê rico x pobre, onde no fim todo mundo tem um final feliz.
Alguns personagens poderiam ter sido muito bem aproveitados, mas não. Fora os personagens irritantes como a Yu-Na ou a melhor amiga da Ha-Won.

Provavelmente não é um drama que eu recomendaria para alguém, ou que irei assistir de novo.

Esse dorama é bem ruinzinho no início, confesso. NOOOOssa, é muito difícil de engolir os "obstáculos" deles. Confesso que eu teria escolhido um cara diferente para ela (sim, aquele mesmo que cuidou muito bem dela SEMPRE, que SEMPRE gostou dela em segredo e que SEMPRE sorria quando estava com ela). Me parte o coração lembrar até hoje a escolha daquela menina, mds.
História: olha, é uma história bem comum. Tentam vender quase que um quadrado amoroso, mas a verdade é que ela só dá corda para um único rapaz. fora que o casal secundário é pura sofrência de vai-não-vai.

Atuação: comum. Não achei nada demais.

Musical: também achei comum.

No geral, achei fofinhas algumas partes. Era fato que a menina só podia ficar com aquela pessoa, mas sei lá sabe? Aquele outro seria MUITO melhor (ai, meu coração chora todos os dias com essa decepção). Não assista se você quer algo que te preencha o coração, mas se você só quer ver algo fofinho de vez em quando, está aí um ótimo dorama para você.
