True romance
like a lot of people I loved watching this drama, I still think about it daily since I first watched it. I started watching kdrama's in 2018 it hasn't been that long, but I've seen my fair share of romance dramas; this has got to be one of the best and well written drama I've watched. This made me fall in love with Gong yoo, it's a story that makes you want to hug each character and want to be part of the found family at prince café. You get annoyed at the characters including the leads, you laugh and cry with them. If you are thinking about skipping this drama because of the premise of this, I would give it a try because it's so worth it. In the beginning I wasn't sure if I wanted to watch myself, I kept pushing it off because I'm not really a fan of a girl pretending to be a guy in dramas because it can come with it's own set of issues, but what I love about this drama is that they address this issues and it becomes a big conflict with the characters they don't just brush this off. So give it a chance.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
¡Una maravilla!
No quiero hacer esto muy largo, vamos a dejarlo en una “recomendación exprés”, yo solo quiero darles ganas de ver la serie.La historia gira entorno a Eun Chan (una chica bastante masculina desesperada por conseguir un trabajo para ayudar a su familia) y Han Kyul (un millonario al que su abuela amenaza con desheredar a menos que logre sacar adelante un café que se cae a pedazos). Por cosas de la vida se conocen y ella termina trabajando para él, el problema está en que en el café solo pueden trabajar hombres… y es que Han Kyul no tiene ni idea de que Eun Chan es una mujer.
¿El plot les suena? Sí, se hizo mil quinientas veces, PERO NO ASÍ. ¿Podemos hablar de que es una serie de 2007 y retrata a la perfección los conflictos internos de un hombre que se creyó heterosexual durante toda su vida hasta que conoce a ese “alguien”? ¡LOCURA TOTAL!
Sí, gente, él desconoce por completo que Eun Chan es una chica hasta mucho después de ya estar completamente enamorado… así que prepárense para sufrir junto a Han Kyul, porque van a sufrir, eso se los puedo asegurar. Sus conflictos internos están tan bien y son tan reales que no puedo hacer más que sacarme el sombrero. Y en esa área (tal vez no puedo decirlo sobre otras) deja un mensaje muy, muy, bueno. Además, los actores tienen una química que no les puedo explicar, #JustSaying.
Puede que lo que más me guste de la serie sea eso (que igual es el eje central), pero los personajes secundarios también son espectaculares (y tienen sus propias subtramas que están muy bien llevadas), el trabajo de los actores es fantástico, las motivaciones de la prota están bien justificadas (independientemente de que estemos de acuerdo con lo que hace o no) y las cosas cierran bien por todos lados.
Punto a considerar: La relación por ahí les parece tóxica porque ella está mintiendo todo el tiempo, pero si se centran en el conflicto interno de él... MARAVILLA.
Creo que es uno de los doramas con mejor representación LGBT que vi, real (porque quieran o no decir lo contrario, el prota masculino es bisexual).
¡TIENEN QUE DARLE UNA OPORTUNIDAD!?

Un clásico maravilloso que aguanta el tiempo!
Maravilloso clásico!!! Acabo de ver esta semana esta maravilla de kdrama, Hace dos años que veo dramas y no me había decidido aún por ver un kdrama antiguo. Lo más viejito que había visto es Healer (que me encantó). Me daba cosita la estética, los peinados, que la historia no me enganchara, tonterías!! Demasiado he tardado en decidirme, me estaba perdiendo una gran historia, con increibles actuaciones y un guión que mantiene el interés a lo largo de los capítulos. Al team de chicos Coffe Prince me los comería todos, son una monada y me han sacado muchísimas risas!! Soy fan de Gong Yoo (para mi Goblin es lo más perfecto que se puede encontrar en un drama), y aquí no decepciona para nada. Su personaje es encantador, super tierno y además está guapísimo. La FL lo hace supremo. Las escenas cómicas de ellos dos son hilarantes, buenísimas pero cuando la cosa se pone dramática, saben como sacarte las lágrimas!!!! La música es muy bonita, la escenografía perfecta para la historia. UN 10!! No os la perdáis.Gracias a VIKI por ponerla disponible en España, hice la petición hace muy pocos días y lo han hecho realidad!!!! En Netflix también está pero solo con la opción de inglés en el idioma.

Coffe prince reseña
Este drama a pesar de tener unos años ya a día de hoy sigue siendo maravilloso lo mires por donde lo mires. Puede que la historia en si sea algo digamos anticuada, contiene el típico que recurso que se usaba mucho antes la verdad. Pero funciona muy bien en este caso, las actuaciones son de 10 la verdad y hay una obvia química entre los protagonistas. Yo reconozco que tengo mi debilidad por mi dios supremo xD Gong yoo. Creo que la historia está bien contada, las escenas de besos son de morirse y está todo bien hilado. En general me pareció un demás excelente, no le puse el 10 porque este género no es de mis favoritos pero me gano sin duda. La recomiendo, es un clásico que hay que verse.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
I really, really loved the first 2/3rds of the drama. However, the drama loses interest for me after the romantic tension is gone and all the problems are solved (I seriously don't count his grandma's resistance a real problem, since we have seen how nice she is to Eun Chan in previous episodes and know there is a strong likelihood she will come around). Sure, there are some plot points to complete and tie up during the remaining episodes, but none of them come close to being as engaging as watching Han Kyul's emotional turmoil over liking Eun Chan. I also did not care too much about the three side couples in the drama--even Yoo Joo's and Han Seong's relationship became dull for me around episode 11.
Apart from all that, yes, the drama is great and deserves all the hype it gets.

However just like in the beginning, I also wasn't that crazy about once they finally got together. This time it was mostly because the writer used lots of immature arguments and fights between them as plot points, almost like they ran out of ideas and so now the show just focused on their arguing over everything. It was beyond bickering chemistry, it was bordering unhealthy. But the show was still totally watchable in these later episodes, and they were still the most adorable couple. I still can't recommend it enough, just beware that there's ups and downs to this show as you go through it.
By the way if you're hesitating to watch this because of the gender bending, do it, you won't regret it.

Entertaining Rom Com.
Gong yoo is a very flexible actor. It shows here that his love for eun cha is so great that he promised for an all in relationship because he thought that his lover is a guy. Eun cha on the other hand shows how he cares for his family that she has to disguise a man to work in the coffee prince. I like the part when gong yoo and his grandma help eun chan to fulfill her dreams to be a renown barrista and she has to study abroad. On the other hand, gong yoo decided to stay in korea and did not pursue his ultimate dream job as a lego designer in usa because he does not want to be far from eu chan. I think that is a true measure of love by willing to sacrifice for the happiness of someoneEsta resenha foi útil para você?
Grazie Viki
L'ho cercato in lungo e largo e finalmente Viki mi è venuto in aiuto.Ho appena finito di guardare Coffee Prince, con altissime aspettative per quanto ne avevo sentito parlare bene. Ed è cosi!
E' praticamente entrato nella mia top 10, diciamo che buona parte del merito la si deve a Gong Yoo, fantastico.
In questo drama troverete tutto ciò che cercate: simpatia, drammaticità, amore e amicizia. Il tutto perfettamente bilanciato da un cast eccezionale, tutti con delle storie personali diverse tra loro.
Ho divorato il drama in solo due giorni, senza skippare nulla, non mi capitava da moltissimo tempo.
La storia segue un flusso lineare, nessun avvenimento eclatante ed è chiara dall'inizio.
Un amore difficile, complesso, così forte da farti mettere in discussione tutto di te (e dico proprio tutto).
Guardatelo, non potete perdervelo e credetemi non ve ne pentirete.

cute, funny, comforting
It's 2022 already and I thought that I will watch such an old drama :).Even though the production is different from what we see now, it is so good too watch and (at least for me) the quality wasn't a bother at all. When it comes to the story it's really unique and precious. The couple made my heart warm too many times. There was something different in those romantic moments between Eun-chan and Han-gyeol. These moments are really pure and throught the series you can feel that some of them weren't scripted.
If you like something light, funny and comforting, give it a chance and you won't regret it :)

One of the best!
The first few Kdrama I watched and totally in love with it! Moreover, I end up in a huge crush with Gong Yoo!!! This drama gives me butterflies with the gender neutral situation and realising gender doesn't matter. Many times I think it's beautiful given that it was showing in 2007. Until today I still think that Gong Yoo should be with Yoon Eun-Hye (she's so cute) and they make a great match.With this drama, casts like Kim Dong-Wook and Kim Jae-Wook caught my eye and still continue supporting them till today. The drama is so fun, engaging and no dull moments, I still misses the whole squad.

I had a hard time finding k-dramas that satisfied me after this!
The chemistry, main story, sidestory, and comedic side to everything was in perfect balance. It never bored me. A really wonderful, summery and light watch. The sidestory is great, although more mature in a way. It really balances the entire thing out. This is a K-drama must see, for anyone of any age!

Wholesome, Nostalgic & Feel Good Drama
Ah, I completed this drama in 2 years. Yes, I started it in November 2021 and watched 15 episodes, and then in January 2024, I completed the other two remaining episodes. And I can say it is one of the best dramas you see. If you're someone with a low attention span or ADHD, you probably won't like it.Because it's like a slow melody, like how Korean dramas used to be back in the day. The acting, cast, and story are all fulfilling. Gong Yoo is hands-down the best Korean actor for me.
I really wish it would have had 20 episodes because this drama has potential. But nonetheless, I recently finished it, and I recommend it to every human being to watch these wholesome 17 episodes. You can have a better story, you can bring a better cast, and you can bring better directors, but still, nothing beats this 2007 show, even after 17 years. I'm so ecstatic, and I thank God every day for introducing me to Korean dramas. I love you, Gong Yoo!!
