Ah this was really cute and entertaining. It's just an hour of fun really, basically an advertisement mixed with comedy and fan service.

The plot is basic and satirises a lot of drama tropes in a short space of time. The cliches actually work out really well and end up being hilarious. I think many people miss the message of the drama - the point is to make fun of fantasy and represent a more accurate (and, I think, a much warmer) reality that is awkward and doesn't always go to plan. Many people talk about how there are no kisses in this web series despite it's name - but that's literally the point. It's a subversion of the happy ending trope, where the big dramatic kiss at the end doesn't necessarily turn out as you expect it, and the 'dream man' who you want to be an actor, or a rich heir, or a secret agent is actually just an ordinary travel writer. I think the ending is good, actually. Without that final episode, the message of this series would be a lot more subtle.

The cast was sweet - but they weren't cast for their acting, they were cast because they're celebrities. It was mostly just fanservice and that's fine, it works well and it was cute in general. Cho Hee was great as a timid, clumsy lead who is meant to be relatable; her awkwardness was genuine and funny.

I actually really liked the music here too, it fit nicely. The whole atmosphere of the show was just fun and enjoyable. I'd definitely rewatch this whenever I'm in a bad mood or need a laugh.

Ok, so in order to enjoy this show, you need to be aware that it is basically just one very long commercial for a mall. It's not meant to be a deep drama. It's fluff. It's supposed to be fluff. So don't expect anything else.

That being said, it's fun to watch. The episodes are very short and the actors/actresses do a good job throughout the series. The story line is minimal, but cute and you do find yourself rooting (I guess that's the right word?) for the female lead. Though...you may not be sure what you are rooting for. Is it for her to end up with one of the guys? Is it for her to get her first kiss? Whatever it is, you can't help but want her to have a happy ending.

So, if you are in the mood for something kind of silly and fun that has short episodes and won't drain you emotionally...this is a great series for that. Enjoy!

All of heartthrobs in one drama!

this drama was quite fun! The story is very similar to those dating games for girls in which there are different romantic interests in each different ending. Everyone's performance, as expected, was good, but the series was really made just to make the audience's hearts skip a beat when they saw their favorite actors! It's a very lighthearted series since it was a promotional series produced for Lotte Duty Free Shop. i really enjoyed it and some times you can give it a quick watch if you want to see one of the male actors.

Just for fun!

Well, we know why we're here, right? It's total guilty pleasure with hot guys and it's fun to watch all these celebrities in one drama.
Lee Joon Gi, Taec Yeon and Lee Jong Suk episodes were the best in my opinion, the stories were the most developed. There are other episodes that feel weak however.
I liked this idea to have a different celebrity at each episode. It would be great to see more projects like this with a big cast, they can definitely do cool stuff other than with a reversed harem.

The drama was not at all what was being expected. The story started with alot of promises but as it continued, it didn't fill up the expectations. We see alot of handsome oppas in the drama but that's the only reason one would watch this drama. You want to watch it if you have nothing to do. The actors performed well but obviously they didn't had much to perform as the episode was 8-10 mins long. The ending was not clear as well. Whether she felt relieved that she still had the last card or she was happy that she found her Prince charming.

I enjoyed this drama as what it can offer but it is really not a Korean drama, it is an ad. The per episode storyline is an okay concept to me as a watcher and I enjoyed it, and to think it is just 10 minutes per episode, it conveyed the fun and somewhat romance in the drama. I did enjoy this since I know all the main leads, and they are pretty much big celebrities in Korea, but I think it is not for everyone especially if you are not a fan. The female lead did really well as well. I would not recommend this drama.

It's totally a drama only a imaginary Drama

Seriously, a rather dumb plot, but I still wound up watching it twice it is totally a fantasy drama which is worth watching . I felt like I am living the life of the female lead she was so acting cute specially after she get to know the rule . further it was fun and somehow I don't know why but keeping myself at her place i was choosing like I will get one of them they all were so cute but I mainly prefer the 1st , 2nd and 5th. everything in it is too imaginary that have a 0% possibility but it still looks cool . Sometime Something's cannot be explained sameway while watching this drama the feelings cannot be explained it has a stupid effect on u which tells u anything is possible because the word Impossible itself says I'm possible bso don't lose hope maybe someday I will meet your specifically special one so keep the hope and wait for that day

Fun Short story..

It brought forth what it meant to from the beginning. I already knew there were be few shirt length episodes so I was not surprised when that is what happened. I won’t say I was disappointed because it was short. They also gave your imagination artistic license to choose who you would have chosen. I loved that they fit so many, GREAT, actors into it so seamlessly. I’m a fan of each of them and it was fun to see the behind the scenes moments at the end. I only wish they had some for each of the stars in this, other than that it was very cute and well done. It reminded me of some shows I watched in the 90’s as a little kid that were short lengths similar to this.

Short and kind of funny

7 kisses or 7 almost kisses... 7 short parodies of fun and popular drama cliches to get us to shop at a duty free what is not to love?

Well for one some of the styling here was just so bad... Sorry but the styling got in the way of some of the guys charm, not Lee Jong Suk even an ugly suit wont ruin his cuteness but Lee Joon Gi s suit, hairstyle and character did not suit him at all even if his episode was probably the most fun. Ji Chang Wook was styled like healer but forgot his acting skills somewhere else but other than that it was pleasant to watch.

Adorably cute

Watched this 8 years after it came out and I'm only 2 years in to K-dramas
I loved it, finished it all at once since it's so short!
Of course all the actors in it got me to watch it, just a light adorably cute non-sense series.
And.... I'll watch anything with Ji Chang Wook in it!

I rated low on rewatch since I do not rewatch series. Too many new ones to see!

I loved it.

I remember watching this during my early stages of being a Asian drama addict (≧▽≦)(≧▽≦)(≧▽≦)(≧▽≦) I only knew Park Hae Jin (from CITT) and Lee Jong Suk (from W) and LITERALLY no one else.

Now that I have fallen in love with kpop as well, I'm here on some, "BUT ISN'T THAT KAI FROM EXO" (≧▽≦)(≧▽≦)(≧▽≦)(≧▽≦). Anyway.

This was an ad. A colossal ad. With eye candy. I think it's best not to take it too seriously. The low rating astonishes me. I've watched worse, full length dramas that could not deliver the kind of (floabw) 'power' 7FK's.

Y'all need to calm down with these bad reviews, but then again, to each their own.

It is all about good and potent love!

For me, it is a clever teaching of love. You just have to get into it and it is nothard, it is well and interestingly produced. And it is up to the viewer to say if the journey of the Min Soo Jin and all these men was pointless or Meaningful. for me there was a lot to learn from it. For instance, the power of negotiation. It must be my favorite special ever. Min and the men had a lot to teach about love and human connection. To show example for our youth...
