Came for the story, stayed for Jang Hyuk

Overall this is a cute show. The best part about it is the food and, most importantly, Jang Hyuk. First the food, it made me want Chinese food all the time. I love shows that are based on food (Dating in the Kitchen is highly recommended). But the highlight is Jang Hyuk. Let me just say the FL is a fool!! Who wouldn't love a bad a$$ like that? This was the first time I've watched any of his works and now I'll search out a lot more. He does most of his own stunts which is extremely cool and he's so attractive. He does have an odd laugh and sometimes he's over the top but overall he's one of my current favorite actors.

The plot sounds really interesting and entertaining. Unfortunately, it's largely forgettable. I finished watching this show a few days ago and the only thing that sticks out is my confusion over why the FL would chose the ML. The chemistry between the two didn't happen until the last part of the show. But she was pining away for that man at the beginning. Also Jang Hyuk's character was a stand out. Other than her lack of judgement, the FL was good. Her smile and attitude were bright and easy going. I can understand why both men would like her. The supporting cast was great, very entertaining. But have I mentioned Jang Hyuk, yet? In the end, Jang Hyuk and his band of thugs are what carried the show.

I do recommend it but it isn't a high priority show. It's funny and entertaining but not to memorable.
