I confess: I am a sucker for Cinderella stories.

Cinderella and the four knights was my first KDrama ever, and because of that is holds a special place in my heart.

It is very cringe and full of clichés, but definitely a feelgood drama.

Eun Ha Won (Park So Dam) lives with her stepmother and stepsister in her father's house. Her father is often away because of his job and does not notice that the step-family does not treat Eun Ha Won well. Eun Ha Won is still a high school students but works several part-time jobs, because she wants to attend university after graduation. She comes home late and lives on the balcony at their home. All these circumstances made her a tough girl, who is not afraid to speak up and help other people.

Kang Hyun Min (Ahn Jae Hyun) is one of the heirs of a huge business. He does not know how to behave and dates one girl after another. He has two cousins, one being a musician and another one being an orphan. Their fathers all died when they were younger, and they use this as excuse of being a$$holes.

As their grandfather gets married again, Kang Hyun Min wants to set a statement and when he meets Eun Ha Won in a club, he pays her for attending the wedding with him. At the wedding, he is not polite and Eun Ha Won speaks up about his bad behavior, which impresses the grandfather. Later, he contacts her to employ her as a babysitter for the three boys, who all live in one major mansion together.

Eun Ha Won really has to go through a lot of stuff during the series, which makes the audience root for her loveable and kind character. Also, the boys will grow closer to your heart as time develops.

The drama has many flashbacks and these weird time stands still moments :D, while the behavior of the characters is similar to a bad fan fiction. It is like a car crash, you can not look away even tho it is cringing.

So if you want to get yourself a portion of sugar. Go ahead, I definitely recommend.

You must take into account tho that 2016 was also some years ago already, so production and styling wise there are some fopas.
