Maybe not for everyone, but I know some people will enjoy this drama.

I’m not going to recommend this drama to everyone but I know a lot of people can enjoy this dram as one time watch. Haven't watch episode 10, still on 9. I get peoples view on this drama but tbh I enjoyed watching this drama. Those imaginative scene, the boyfriend being adamant to continue the relationship, the OST, fl and her brother back story. Even though the co workers, mom, and sort of repetitive scene was annoying but the drama had good points as well.

I actually understand why both the brothers never go against the mother actively, also the fact why the FL without considering anything accept the money thinking the relation is doom as soon as she learnt he is a chaebol. I don't find that ML's fault till there, nor hers; her past made her believe that she is not ment for fairy tales cause she doesn't want to face all the burden (lack of a better word) that comes with it. The story is about the limbo she is in and him making her believe that she deserves the love she had and him being rich doesn't change anything when it comes to their feelings. Yes he should have apposed the mother more actively but then when he did that women doesn't listen. She more so behave like a chairwoman rather than a mother most of times. He did took the initiative to stand for the person he love and goes beyond his mother disapproval to chose her but then the love of his live also disapprove of him cause of her own insecurity which she did address a bit during their arguments of him leaving the house and her leaving him. That plot is murky and wasn't well developed maybe that why viewer finding it hard to understand the storyline. The plot goes more of him being cute but the little hints we see is he is definitely not a manchild who is all play and wooo! i love this girl. He seems to have qualities of a responsible person.

I know the story seems dragging but I still enjoyed it. Now to talk about the title "Cinderella at 2 pm" bro I have no idea why that name is given but to think back. When she accepted the money she somewhat says that before 12 the Cinderella was enjoying herself with the prince at 12 she ran to hide her true self but what about later that night, does she really want a prince to find her, will he accept the way she is. She talks about how at 1-2-3 pm she was dreading that the shoes left behind and the prince might end up finding her. It the limbo that she stayed in was the main plot line of the story. It not a fairy tale any more for Cinderella after 12 pm so that's why the drama is not fairy tale. Till she didn't know the status of ML she was enjoying and fine with relation. When she learnt that he is rich (prince) she ran to hide her identity (hence accepted the money) but after that the confusion she is in still having feelings for the ML but giving word to the mother she will leave. She wants to be found and stay hidden at same time. But we all know how the story end.
