Not a bad start

First episode is surprisingly funny. I can’t believe how many shirtless scenes there are…lol. Not complaining.

Damn, pretty good for a 1st EP!

Well if my positive reception of this first episode is anything to go by then this drama should be a hit. From bitter experience I know not to start a popular drama like Coffee Prince expecting too much, but this was a solid first ep, with characters and situations I've never encountered in a K-drama before (granted I haven't seen that many but still). Normally a drama doesn't pull me in until the 3rd or 4th episode, but this one hooked me from the start. I've seen the lead actress before, in Lie To Me. I like her. The hero is cute too and he already has great chemistry with the heroine, although he's under the assumption that she is a he. I'm also intrigued by the side story involving Hi Jin and Han Seoug. Very, very good start. Wasn't expecting that at all.

Perfect: Rewatching a favorite

This episode is an introduction to all the main characters and I loved every moment of it! From the moment Eun-Chan declares that she's a girl, and is still not believed, I knew I would love this gender bender. I like that coffee prince takes a non traditional route, and instead of having the main character purposely pretend to be a boy, it's just a casual misunderstanding that she goes with when it works to her advantage. She's an interesting lead from the start.

I love Gong Yoo's charm, and his playful chemistry with Yoon Eun Hye is already starting. I love how Lee Sun Gyun & Chae Jung Ahn's past relationship is set up, while their relationships with the main leads are also established.

I can understand people getting confused by all the characters that are introduced, but I was not. Instead I was curious about how all the relationships would intertwine. Is Choi Han-Gyul in love with his cousin's ex? How will it work out if one cousin knows Eun-Chan is a girl, and the other is convinced she's a boy?

i like that Eun-Chan confuses the dogs gender, and thought that was also a nice writer's touch.

I think the acting & writing is strong from the start, and by the end of the episode I want to immediately watch episode 2 (Just like the first time). That's saying a lot, since I already know what's going to happen next : p

A bit slow..

The first episode seemed a bit slow and confusing. Not as interesting as I expected, but well, if you don't know all the characters yet and the situation needs some explaining then it seems inevitable. BUT I've seen more interesting first episodes.
Fortunately as the episode started to end it became more and more interesting so I decided to see what happens next.
I recommend you to keep watching... :D
