Just adorable...especially ML!
I really don't know why this drama has a low rating of 7.7 because it's much better than a lot of dramas that get higher ratings (like Falling into Your Smile - sorry, I was not impressed by that drama at all). Yes, this drama is light-hearted and fluffy, but isn't that what a Rom-Com ought to be? It's also fairly short for a C-drama - only 18 episodes that run about 22-30 minutes long. The shorter length leaves you no time to get bored or press the fast forward button (although I did press it through the third couple, Zhao & the painter that dressed like a 12 year old).
ML falls first in this story, which I prefer to those FLs that idolize some guy for like forever even though he's the Abominable Snowman. Not so with this ML. He's adorable and just so, so cute! Ok, yes, he's a bit full of himself, and he's a fusspot, but I loved him! He's a 'character', a 'weirdo' as FL calls him, but he's the cutest weirdo I ever saw! He acts cold, especially in the beginning, but it's softened by his silliness and fussiness. His reactions were just so cute! I loved his trademark 'unbelievable' and his internal thoughts of 'come on, baby' when he was hoping FL would confess while he was pretending to be drunk. For me, ML was the star of this drama...even though FL was, indeed, very likeable. Although she had a cute appearance, she was not 'cutesy' in her mannerisms. She was actually sort of the straight guy to ML's comedy, but she wasn't cold and unlikeable like some of those Chinese FLs who play the 'serious' role. She was warm and sunny yet capable. Even her bestie wasn't the typical dingbag - she was likeable as well - it was cute when she was running away from the secretary after being caught taking photos.
There's really not a lot to say because, like I said, it was short, sweet and fluffy. Yeah, we got some templates (falling into kisses, blood phobia, childhood connection, etc.), but the cuteness and adorability (is that a word?) of ML made up for those worn out tropes. I really prefer MLs who have unique characters, not the Abominable Snowmen who never seem to melt enough to cause you to like them. I'm not a fan of the stone-faced MLs.
If you want something light-hearted and sweetness that'll make you smile and laugh, watch this drama!
