Cringy but fun

Okay, I'll be the first to admit that the acting in this show was bad, but I would still recommend watching it, because it's just fun! You could actually make a drinking game out of this drama - every time you encounter a K-drama trope, take a drink! The concept of the show was interesting and somewhat original, and I had the best time watching it, because I think they were actually able to include every cliche known to man. Since it was pretty over the top, I didn't feel too invested in the characters, and really felt like I was on the outside looking in, but I was fine with that. I upped my rating slightly because of Woo Do Hwan - seriously, he would make watching paint dry fascinating.

I found the female lead very interesting. She was a pitiful, "invisible" person (to use her own phrase), but even apart from being a white woman in Korea, I think they chose the right person for the part. Not classically beautiful, pale with freckles, strange hair cut, interesting clothes choices, it all went to a package that worked. And I loved her excitement when she found out she had been sucked into K-drama world! Let's be honest, anyone that is a K-drama junkie can understand her reaction.
