I will start off by saying that this drama wasn't really that amazing. But it was highly enjoyable which is really what gave it this high rating.

STORY:
Ok so the story was nothing new. We've all seen these troupes before in many different shows, however I did still enjoy every moment of it. I think this show isn't something to watch if you need something a little more serious with a good plot. However, I think if you want something light (this show doesn't have anything too dramatic in it) with some comedy, then this is definitely a good watch. I really liked the development and pace of it and how it still managed to surprise me with some plot twists. The romance story was really cute and innocent and seemed so natural. But I think the ending was a bit dragged and they could've easily wrapped this show in 12 episodes.

CAST:
I think the leads were both attractive and fit their roles very well. Louie's character got on my nerves many times because of how annoying he was, but he did mature throughout the show and was so much better at the end so A+ for character development. My favorite character here was definitely Cha Joong Won. I actually liked him much better than Louie but it wasn't like a SLS situation because I think the main leads were perfect for each other.

MUSIC:
Definitely my favorite part of this drama is the music. I personally downloaded all 9 of the OSTs. Most of the songs have this "chill" vibe that fits the aesthetic of the show and it's the kind of genre that I prefer. What I also really liked here is that each of the episodes, is titled after some already existing song that is somehow incorporated into the episode. For example episode 2 is titled "A whole new world" and they play the song " A whole new world" from Aladdin in one of the scenes. I just thought this was a fun way to title the episodes and how a certain song is associated with the episode.

REWATCH VALUE:
I gave the rewatch value a high score because I've personally rewatched this show 2 times. I don't have a specific answer as to why because, like I said earlier, there isn't much about the story that's too interesting. But something about the innocent love and funny characters just has this spark.

Overall, this was a very FUN show to watch. Sometimes there's these shows that are not that good but they're just really entertaining. This is what Shopping King Louie is like.
