Rooftop Prince was a great drama that wasn't what I expected it to be at all. It had me by the first episode because unlike most dramas which I have felt were slower in the beginning, this drama picks up the pace from the first minute. At first it was hilarious...like laugh out loud funny, especially with the Emperor's trio!! ^^ After that it becomes more serious and more romancy but the drama side is very interesting too!!
The story was original although it had some mainstream components in it, and overall the plot was entertaining and well written. However it did have a few plot-holes. During most of the story I felt that the problems got resolved reasonably quickly and its developed and fast paced plot kept me engaged throughout Rooftop Prince. The female lead's character was one I had sympathy for but her personality after all the crap she had been through was surprising and inspiring. At times I would be begging her to be smarter and would get frustrated at her inability to escape the villains traps. But a drama's never good if it doesn't make the viewer anxious..! But as dumb as she could be her fights, anger, happiness were all cute especially with the male lead who had a charm of his own. I was a bit confused by the end and I felt it would have been better if they had left out the last bit of the last episode. More realistic!
Acting was good but the Emperors trio(Jung Suk-won, Choi Woo-shik, Lee Min-ho) were definitely my favourites!! ~HILARIOUS!!
Music was alright, catchy but nothing special.
Overall this drama is a must watch with all the components of a good drama... So watch it !! :)
