I was pleasantly surprised by this K-Drama and feel like it gets a little worse than it deserves. I have read the Mahwah a couple times over the years and in my opinion, it is a classic in its own right. That being said there are not many similarities between the two from what I recall. I believe this to be a good thing and actually raises the score I've given it. I don't think I would have enjoyed this as much if it was a faithful recreation of the manga. By switching things around we have a wonderful little man out of time kind of story which creates fun story opportunities. I felt like the chemistry between the two main actors was solid and absolutely adorable at times. The story can be a bit confusing but that does seem to be mostly intentional. It unravels as you go, and you get more and more info on things that the characters have mentioned or hidden from each other. This may not be for everyone, but I actually found it more interesting because of this. Now I did enjoy this drama, but I do have an issue with it that did lower the score from what I did want to give it. The ending was not anything spectacular, and now that doesn't mean there is anything bad about but it's just boring and almost felt like the big thing, they were worried about the whole time didn't really amount to much. This isn't out of the norm for most dramas I mean of course you have expectations of what should happen with the relationship, but you want the ending to be entertaining at the least no matter what does happen.
