Comments
A
typical korean drama which builds on fantasy and romance. It is a nice
opening which gave us an insight to the characters of these main leads.
Jung Il Woo is cute and charming in his own way. It is funny to see him
using the same tricks on the women she encountered and his own daddy. He
seems to be able to manipulates others using his charm. I am curious to
know more about his character and his background
Lee
Chung Ah who played Eun Bi is excellent. She really looks desperate looking for a eligible bachelor. From this episode, we know that she is a
dreamer and she envies her friend who seems to be more popular. The interesting thing is she has her
own criteria when she looks at a man. There is this score sheet in her mind
that she uses to judge a guy. That is hilarious but true to certain
extend.
There is this
mysterious guy called Hyun woo that appeared for a while, I am curious
to know more about his role. This drama is able to get me interested and
I will continue to write on this drama.
