Cute, hilarious, & touches on animal rights

If you like fantasy dramas with romances involving ghosts, nine tailed foxes, vampires, etc. then you’ll love this drama. Yes it’s a very far fetched story and it doesn’t really explain why a cat suddenly becomes a human. But I like how sweet and funny it is. There’s not a lot of angst or sorrow in this drama. It’s a light, sweet, fluffy romantic comedy.

First off, the story is unique and has interesting characters. And I like that it touches on many issues we all face regardless of what country we live in. Such issues as animal abuse, animal neglect, animal hoarding, and abandoning animals are all addressed here and really make you think. It’s all issues that are close to my heart so it made me really like this drama. It’s so sad that many animals are abandoned after they are no longer cute little puppies or kittens. Or they are just tossed into the backyard and forgotten. These issues are highlighted and addressed quite well.

There’s also lots of comedy that really cracked me up. I loved how the cat that’s now become a human behaved when he was in a grocery store and saw the live fish in the tank. Or when he found the owners stash of canned tuna and proceeded to try to cram as many cans as he could into his pockets and make a run for it. But I think the funniest and cutest moment was when he was riding in the bus. He couldn’t resist swatting at the cute little stuffed animal toy dangling from the passengers bag in front of him. Myungsoo played the part of a human cat to perfection. His mannerisms and facial expressions were so adorable and very believable. It reminded me of Dilraba Dilmurat’s portrayal of a cute little nine tailed fox in “Three lives three worlds: the pillow book.” You just can’t help giggling at the cuteness.

Overall this is one of those dramas that if you turn off your brain and don’t over analyze the premises of the story then you’ll love it. That’s not to say there’s no depth to the story. It has depth and tons of character growth. But you just need to sit back, relax and not take things too seriously if you want to really enjoy the sweet funny romcom that touches on a few important issues.
