Still interesting although it's definitely a low budget B-rate drama
Even though this is definitely a low budget drama with B-rate acting on the part of most of the cast, I still found it enjoyable, mostly due to the plot and FL.
First, the plot. There's definitely holes that leave you wondering, and I never did really figure out what was going on with the marriage thing between FL/ML. They were definitely married early on (I can't remember which episode) because I saw the red books, but FL seemed to split her time between his place and Grandpa's mansion. And I was as surprised as they were when FL turned out to be pregnant since I wasn't sure if they'd actually slept together or not. I'm not even sure why an actual pregnancy needed to be added other than to get ML to finally confess and move into Grandpa's. And then I really don't understand the ending, but hey, as long as they're together at the end, I'm ok with it. Sort of like the movie The Lakehouse. Just turn off your brain and enjoy the happy ending. But other than these inconsistencies, I did enjoy the idea of her falling in love with the villain of the book. I also liked the twist concerning the FL of the book's true nature. I think with some tweaking this plot is worthy of a higher budget production.
Second, FL of the drama. I liked her and she's got enough talent to eventually make it into a higher budget film. Heck, she showed a wider range of expression than that plank of wood that played FL on 'Falling into your Smile' so if the plank of wood can break into the big time, hopefully, this actress can too. I can't say the same about ML. He was rather stiff and spoke too softly at times, but he was without a doubt a handsome guy. Maybe a different director can coax more expression/emotion out of him.
The rest of the cast was 'meh', but at least, there weren't any really hateful b***** or control freak parents. Overall, although not on par with the high budget films, I liked it better than other B-rates I've watched.
