visually stunning filler

[Before we begin I have to shout out that intro. Never skipped and even replayed it sometimes. The visuals and vibes go too hard]

I'll be honest, I wasn't on board with the show until about ep 4, but that proposal really sped things up for me. The story has your typical problematic chaebol family but some twists here and there. The jokes weren't landing in the beginning but things became funnier as this progressed.


The acting was ok. The FL carried hard. The visual chemistry is insane, and the romantic chemistry is good too. I'm still on the fence about SK’s abilities as an actor. Either the roles he's getting aren't challenging or he simply doesn't have the range. Either way he wasn’t the best here and at times I thought he forgot how to act. KYJ has such a charming face. The directors knew what they were doing casting her in this. Seok Hoon, Madam Ju, and Seok Min’s actors were good. Everyone else was just ok.

This was better than I thought it was gonna be but nothing to rave home about. I actually found myself looking forward to the ep drops, tho this had more to do with the fan service and visual aspect. I had to be honest with myself--this was a filler show. Visually pleasing but filler nonetheless. Everything else was what you'd expect from a fantasy drama with crazy rich people in the mix. I was never really invested in the overarching story at any point. We also got the predictable happy ending which is good for general kdrama viewers but bad if you expected more plot execution.
