Cute, Funny and Super Romantic

Story Review:

The story was pleasantly and unexpectedly funny and very cute. Although it's very trope-heavy, it worked because the cast did such a good job in all their roles! The thing I appreciated most about this drama's story is how it points out and makes fun of all the things wrong with script writers / dramas these days. It was so cleverly done, you would miss it if you're not paying close attention. After entering her script, she comes to realize that the things that make a story good is the natural progression of events that leads to the development of feelings in a relationship, that things have to happen organically and cannot be forced by flawed 'just-because' logic.

Acting/Cast Review:

I think the reason why this drama did so well is not because of the story, but because of the cast and acting. I believe that at some point, the ML actually fell for the FML in real life or he's just that good at acting! You believe and buy into their relationship. The two male servants were among my favorites because they were so funny, they are like living and breathing live commentary, who always points out the elephant in the room. That was refreshingly fun! Each character had their story and struggles and were multidimensional, so even the "evil" or "bad" guys didn't make your blood boil and isn't just evil for the sake of being evil (huge problem in dramaland these days).

Music Review:

I don't think I can review the OST objectively because I can't determine if the music is actually worthy of praise or if I like it so much because I like the drama and the events that those particular songs remind me of. Which again, just points out how good the acting is!

Rewatch Value:

After completing the drama, I have definitely scanned through it a couple of times again because lets be honest, those moments were just so cute, so romantic and not to mention so funny, it's hard not to want to relive it over and over again.

Overall Review:

For a low budget web drama, it was totally worth the watch! For everything it lacked, it made up for it in the cast and in the acting. It isn't something to take seriously, but will definitely make a lasting impression!
