I had started this drama last year and stopped after the first few minutes because it hadn't drawn me in. I am so glad that someone on here told me that I needed to pick it up again! This drama was not perfect by any means, but it was still a seriously fun ride. Dokko Jin was oft-times ridiculous, irritating, and childish. Despite all of that, he was also sexy, sweet, romantic and adorable. His character was nothing new in terms of kdrama heroes, but he was still such a great leading man, even if you wanted to punch him in the face occasionally for so being so completely oblivious at times. His naivete was adorable, and his crazy laugh was somehow endearing. I wasn't really that impressed with Gu Ae Jung. Her character was kind of bland, and a little unbelievable because she was the "forever good" kind of character, who never even has a mean thought about someone, or so it would seem. I really felt like they could have made her character a little more multidimensional and not have lost out on how completely Dokko fell in love with her. The supporting characters were, for the most part, a complete pleasure to watch. Ding Dong was adorable, Se Ri was a good evil foil, without being to irredeemable, and the Pil Ju was so beyond sexy, there should be a new word made up to describe. I was totally rooting for Dokko and Ae Jung, but I can't help it if I also want to jump on the Pil-line!! The storyline wasn't anything new or revolutionary, and that's just the way I like it, I think! It's a good rom-com that will make you hurt for all of the characters at some point in time, and root for everyone to have a happy ending! And Dokko and Pil Ju will have you smiling like a fool at least once an episode. If you are looking for a new romantic comedy, that is really cute at times and a lot of fun to watch, then this is what you should watch!! The love story in this one is definitely not something that romance fan should miss :)
