Plot was amusing. FL was funny at times (and sometimes irritating). The supporting cast was lovable and did their jobs well.

BUT.

Chen Zhe Yuan as the male lead absolutely stole the show.

If you’re looking for a drama with the sweetest, prettiest, most devoted man ever, this is for you. It’s a light-hearted Beauty and the Beast retelling with an intrepid princess as the FL and a part-time king, part-time monster boyfriend as the ML.

TROPES:
- ML falls first (long before the FL) and quickly
- royal leads
- fantasy, magic, portals, etc
- multiple secondary couples
- no love triangles, minimal skinship
