I was excited for a new romcom and the fact that Han Ji Min was going to be in it. I was a little hesitant on the casting of Yoo Chun though cause I didn’t care for him in Sungungwan Scandal. Im pretty aware my review will be different than a lot of the other ones written…
Story- It took a couple of episodes before I became interested in it. I liked the comedy and felt the plot started to get really interesting towards the latter half. I didn’t like the ending it just wasn’t my type of ending. It just left me with a bitter taste.
Acting/Cast- The acting by Han Ji Min was flawless and she delivered many powerful scenes. Yu Chun really impressed me with his acting. With that being said, I think the casting for these 2 leads could have been better. They didn’t have any chemistry, which totally put a damper on the romance. It wasn’t believable to me. One of them needed to be replaced in my opinion. As for the actors that played our villains Tae Mu & Sena, they did a fantastic job! Their characters were scary but needed. I liked the rest of the supporting cast a lot.
Music- Lovely and powerful in the emotional scenes and when the scene was funny it matched well. I liked the OST for the drama but its not something ill remember outside of watching it.
Rewatch- I wont be watching it again just because the OTP couple didn’t have any chemistry and I wasn’t satisfied by the ending. Although Im sure many others who liked it might find it rewatchable.
Overall Rooftop Prince is hilarious and moving but I think casting of leads who had chemistry would had made this drama a lot more enjoyable and memorable.
