What can I say? Choi Si Won and his adorable dimples are back! Choi Si Won plays Byun Hyuk, a carefree third generation chaebol whose family is super awful, who falls in love basically at first sight with Kang So Ra's Baek Jun, the plucky, multi-parttime-job-holding, no-nonsense girl of modest means. There's a second male lead, Kwon Je Hoon, who grew up with Byun Hyuk (played by the adorable Gong Myung). Some of the writes up I've seen describe the plot as 'rich boy learns to be a good human', but my read of it is more that the rich boy in question has always been a good human - he's just been living his life oblivious to consequences. So really, the story line is him learning that there are consequences to actions and how it awakens his desire to try to reform "Hell Joseon", or at least his little slice of it, for a new era.

I'm not going to lie, it's an uneven story. Choi Si Won is game as always to be an over the top goober - which is really why we loved him so much in She Was Pretty - but sometimes it's too much in this drama and he's not as good at anchoring the drama as he should be. A lot of the trend lately seems to be that shows are heavier, with highlights of humor, so what starts out funny, often ends up going pretty serious and dark for some portion of the middle and/or end.  This show embraces the humor throughout and keeps it going. Even with that, I still greatly enjoyed the show.
