The only pros this drama has are the main couple's chemistry and the characters of the guys working at the coffee prince.

Now I'll list the many cons.
-FL acts like a toddler all the time;

-ML is immature and unnecessarily rude to the FL during the time he doesn't know she's a woman, I guess because liking a "guy" hurts his macho pride;

-ML kept bullying FL as a supposed form of love which is super fucked up and not cute at all;

-It's impossible to sympathize with the leads, him being a rude prick and her selfishly hiding her real identify;

-The drama has a overall weird aura;

-There were unnecessary disgust inducing scenes for humor but I guess that kind of humor is not my taste;

-Tedious love quadrangle, I couldn't understand who any of them really liked at the beginning, everyone seemed like they were two-timing for a while;

-Didn't get why FL needed to keep her secret for so long, everything could be resolved if she just told ML she was a girl, why the unnecessary drama;

-Really dude? seeking psychiatric help and the doctor prescribing the ML medicine to treat homosexuality? the disrespect, I cringed;

-Treating homosexuality as this alien thing that's forbidden didn't sit well with me at all;

-When they tried being Hyung and Dongsaeng, oh God so weird;

-FL's reason for not telling ML that she was girl all that time didn't make any sense;

-Idk why they thought we would care about the annoying plot of the butcher old guy chasing after the mother;

- The second leads' relationship is confusing as fuck and I didn't care about it at all, I even found myself fast forwarding through their scenes after some episodes;

-When ML discovered that FL was a woman he kept saying how he was glad that she was woman and was acting almost like he was committing a sin back when he told her he liked her even thought she was a man, and now that he found out she's actually a woman everything is fine;

Conclusion: I feel like this drama could be somewhat more enjoyable if you skip from the episode FL starts working at the coffee prince (I think it was episode 4) to episode 11 when he discovered she's a woman. But nope I don't recommend this drama.
