The only possible way to describe "Panda and Hedgehog" is that it's a mess. It's about 25% Cute, 75% wannabe-makjang and 25% of that butterfly song. You know, the one that apparently had a deep and powerful story behind it? Yeah. I don't know either. That doesn't exactly mean that this drama was bad. Just... crazy. The premise was cute and fun, with an adorable storyline that was just too cute for words. And then you get revenge stories, birth secrets and amnesia. Did I just step into "Nice Guy"? Or any other revenge drama? And then the story switches back to cute with confessions and cupcakes. Then back to makjang. Cute. Makjang. I felt like this drama gave me whiplash. If it had stuck to the cute parts, then "Panda and Hedgehog" would have been a nice, but ultimately forgettable drama. If it had stuck to the makjang parts, then "Panda and Hedgehog" would have been a nice, but ultimately forgettable drama. Since it tried getting both, this became a mess of the most random things that confused me more than it entertained me. Acting: The acting was okay, but there was a lot of eye candy *coughcough Donghae coughcough* so that didn't particularly hurt the story. Music: Music was nice, fitting more with the "cute" part of the drama than the makjang part. Rewatch value: I'd watch it for the cute. Not even going near the rest. Overall: Let's hope this never happens again, shall we?
