A lighthearted rom-com that plays well into their cliches
This drama started off STRONG. Even though we have seen this premise in countless of other dramas, the performance from the cast left me craving for more.
I was scared that this drama would fall into the trap of other dramas by dragging out a lot of their tropes, but to my own surprise, none of them get dragged out. The story moves very fast-paced from one conflict to another or from one trope to another, which can be a good or bad thing (some parts did feel brushed aside just for the sake of moving things along).
For such a lighthearted drama, it never failed to make me feel happy and have an overall good time. I swear I would smile for 60 minutes straight every time I watched this drama. There are so many funny moments and jokes that you won't find in most other k-dramas. In many ways, I feel as if this is a modernization of cliche poor-rich rom-coms with the fast-paced nature and a more playful story (sacrificing character development and tear-jerking moments for more playful and comical moments).
While I do say this drama started off strong, it didn't end as strong as I had hoped. The ending felt simple which I do understand with the drama only having 12 episodes, but I felt yearning for more at the end.
Overall, a great drama that plays well into their cliches without dragging any tropes for longer than it needs be. A fun and light-hearted rom-com drama for anyone looking for a drama to relax to!
