Very funny

If you’re looking for a lot of laughs with not much depth then this is for you. It’s definitely very funny and very low on angst and sadness. It’s perfect to watch after a really heavy melodrama that’s torn you up. That being said, it just wasn’t my cup of tea. It wasn’t bad it just wasn’t that great either. I’ll start out with what I liked.

What I liked:
The comedy was excellent. The acting was pretty good too. There wasn’t a lot of angst or sadness. I also really liked the behind the scenes clips at the end of each episode, it was a nice touch. Most of the characters were pretty lovable and there weren’t a lot of evil people doing awful things to get you all upset. The main couple are pretty cute together too. And I appreciated the character growth of the assassin and the second male lead.

What I didn’t like:
It was just a little too light and sweet. The story lacked depth and dimension. It did get a little more interesting story wise later in the drama but it was very predictable. I knew who the villain was very early on and how the final scene would play out. But what really bothered me was the romance aspect of the drama. I’m so tired of the kisses where the actors press their lips together and just stare at each other for several minutes while the camera circles around them. It’s hard to get into a romance with such fake kisses. And there’s just way too much push and pull between the main couple. But when a drama has to use the old standby cliche amnesia plot just to pull the main leads apart because they’ve exhausted all other means to keep them apart, they lose major points with me. Overall the lack of depth, the predictable storyline, and the unfulfilling romance of this drama had me taking a number of stars off. But I have to say, if you’re looking for something strictly for laughs and cuteness then this is definitely for you.
