I'm not sure where to begin with this drama! I loved the first half. The ML and FL had such great chemistry together. FL was pretty and adorable and her antics with the ML were hilarious, yet sweet and innocent. ML was handsome (swoon-worthy smile!!) and charming and his reaction to FL was perfect too. There were definitely a lot of laugh out loud comedic and sweet moments.

Midway through though, it started to get really long because there was no resolution to ANYTHING. The obsessive ex-girlfriend and mad scientist never stopped being evil for 25 episodes, the evil stepmother and uncle were relentless for 27 episodes (I never could understand that one because the father treated the stepmother's son well and wasn't out to short change him), the FL one minute was crying for the ML (like heartbreak crying) and then the next minute she rejects him and acts like nothing is wrong (bright cheery smiles), which happened multiple times throughout the drama (did she like him or not?), and ML never finds out she's an alien until episode 26 (even though she's frozen time and done other things). I got so frustrated I ended up fast forwarding through episodes and just watched for the ML and FL.

The last 2 episodes though were gems and basically redeemed the drama. ML finds out FL is an alien and there's true communication and FL finally commits to ML (FINALLY). We finally get to see how heart warming, and genuine ML and FL's relationship could be and I have to say ML's acting chops were impressive (turn on the water works). The ending was well done and I'd love this drama if it were 10 episodes shorter!!
