I had plenty of fun watching this. A fun that some higher up rate dramas didn't gave me. That's why I think it was worthy watching it. It could be better? Maybe it could, I don't know but I have enjoyed it pretty much, never had the urge of dropping it.

The main characters, HaBaek and YoonSo. Loved, loved, loved them. I love the way HaBaek was a wanna-be cold guy, somewhat funny, sometimes naive, I liked the way YoonSo wanted to hide her weaknesses, instead of just being a fragile wreck unlike so many dramas like to portray women. Not all woman are emotional train-wrecks that fall crying like a baby when something happens. She was strong, even though her life was crappish, she kept going, even when everything was falling apart. I loved it about her. It has some realism in it. Out of dramas, in real life, when something bad happens, when a lover goes away, or someone die, your life just keep going, sit and cry like a baby doesn't help,we have to find a way to survive. That's why I liked her so much, if you ever had been in a situation like this, you would understand. Is a very well written character.
Many people say the Shin Se kyung acting was bad. Seriously, I'm very critical about acting, and I can't see why . I mean, her character was supposed to be a strong one, so pardon her if she had not so many desperate crying scenes like so many other dramas, maybe thats why people say it was bad?? (I'm just trying to understand) I Can't see any flaws in her acting.
About NamJoo well, can't say otherwise about him as well. He was portraying an arrogant king god, and he did it well. Let's skip that is always a joy watch his cute face, for so many hours haha x))
From what I could notice, when people see a cold characters, in dramas in general, they take it as bad acting. Ive seen this in so many other dramas and the same happens. You see, when a character is supposed to be cold, not emotional, they gonna show less emotions, naturally. That's not a flaw or bad acting, that's how the character is supposed to be. For what HaBaek was supposed to be, NamJoo did a very good job.

The plot was good enough, if I have to complain about something is this show, it may be a little about the plot. Sure it wasn't a perfect one, but is better than so many plots that I have seen in popular shows everyone likes.
So, overall is a good drama.

Would I recommend this??? Yeah, this show was good, was funny with a cute romance, with good characters.
