Simple but Something Unique!
I started this drama without any expectations and fell in love with this. I wanted to watch an ongoing drama and only started because I saw somewhere it had high ratings for the first episode. Started it with two other dramas, but this took all my attention. A story where opposite attract, yeah, sounds cliché but it has a lot of fresh moments. A loud man who loves money more than anything meets a studious woman. Sounds more cliché, right? You may find it a bit uninteresting in first few episodes, But believe me, it is the best romcom of the year. No unwanted fillers and no unwanted characters, it never failed to entertain me. A perfect start and a very Perfect Ending.
The production of this drama was awesome, from the start of the episode, costumes and to the end, everything was aesthetically pleasing, especially the Netherlands part. This drama is a mix of Romance, Comedy and maybe a bit Mystery? The Humor was on point, there were funny scenes even in between romance. You would never get tired of the funny scenes, had a good laugh watching this. Its not just romance and comedy, but includes fighting for justice and shows how the world is and how money controls everything.
Jin Moo Hak is the star of the show. His loud behavior is really an eyecatcher. He is a man who can't tolerate the things that he don't like and doesn't live to please anyone. A person who is uncultured when looked by the educated people. He is rich, not by birth, but by working day and night. That's what makes him special. He is not a person who is toxic , sits back and give money for everything the FL wants and treats her as crap and love her secretly, but supports her to the extend he can and let her earn the fruit of her own hard work.
Kim Dal li is not a simple innocent girl as often seen, she is educated, really hardworking, kind, don't judge people just by their behavior and not ready to sacrifice her life for others. She could be seen as weak sometimes, but she always gains back her confidence and try to learn the situation and find a solution. She is a studious girl and could realize every artwork in one look. But I am a bit unsatisfied cause her knowledge of artwork could've been shown more, but it was limited to the first episode. She is not a person who obeys everything others say, but has her own opinion.
The side characters did a good job, Won tak and Moo Hak could've had a really nice bromance, but the screen time was limited. Jin Moo Hak's secretary is not only a person who shows him his schedule and drives his car, but she really cares for her boss as a friend , maybe because its how sincere he is. I loved her character so much. I found Moo Hak's parents really annoying at times, but liked them at last. Chak Hee and Jang Tae Jin also did a great job. Won Tak was a brother like friend who took care of Dali very much. I was afraid if it could be a love triangle, but thanks to the makers for making him a really good friend. The gallery workers were also very good in their characters.
Their chemistry is out of the world. What I loved most is how they supported each other without being egoistic or jealous of each other as seen in other dramas. They loved each other and want to enjoy the rest their life together. I usually get tired clichés and skip some scenes when watching a romcom, but these people didn't let me take my eyes off the screen. Yeah, there are no drama without clichés but these people did not let me take my eyes off the screen. The only problem was that there could have been more screen time of them together. They were not together every time, may be that's why this was relatable. It have broken many stereotypes often seen in K dramas. Each episode ended with a cliffhanger and I always wished if I could watch one more episode and eagerly waited for the subs to be released the next Wednesday.
So concluded, I liked this drama as a whole, every scene in it. Trust me, It's worth it!!
