A Sweet Love Story
This is one of those dramas where you just want to watch something short, sweet, and angst-free. The FL, since she grew up as a bandit and became the bandit leader after her father’s passing, is independent, willful, speaks her mind, and is more fists before words. The ML, on the other hand, is a pampered and highly educated second son of a wealthy general. He’s more reserved in words and actions. So, these two polar opposites are now in a contractual marriage. What I love about their relationship is that they actually talk to each other and any misunderstandings are resolved quickly. This is a marriage, although under the guise of a contract, that is one of love, trust, and respect. I see the ML and FL, husband and wife, as help mates, both bringing their own strengths to the marriage. It’s nice, too, that the actors have such good chemistry so the audience can see that on the screen. The secondary couple, the ML’s older brother and sister-in-law, is also a fun watch. Without the FL and her assertive ways, their marriage, I think, may continue to be quite frosty and full of misunderstandings. I like that in this household, there are no enemies, no fighting for power, and no saboteurs. As the older brother says when there’s an attempt to out the FL as a bandit, she can’t solve it on her own because they are a family. They band together to resolve the problem. Nothing is better than a family united! Can I also add that the sound effects are just hilarious, especially the cold wind effect whenever the older brother makes an exit.
