The romantic and heartwarming story of two men who kind of like each other, mildly enjoy each other's company and wouldn't mind spending more time together possibly as long as nothing else came up.

This show has no chemistry, no sensuality, no kilig and definitely no passion. The two leads just exude a lukewarm appreciation for each other that translates to a calm friendship. I've seen bromances in Sageuks with more sizzle and they didn't expect me to believe they ran off together to - presumably - read books together while fully clothed. Which they could have done without the remote locale.

At a mere hour, the show wastes a lot of time on flashbacks to moments where nothing happened as the two men reminisce about those times they were mildly and politely amiable towards each other in private.

Considering the lack of anything remotely resembling a romantic connection between these two and the fact the bulk of the plot is about Nobleman Rue's "wife" coming to terms with her place in his household, this comes off as a story about how a man discovered he liked having a wife. Something that he could have had without running off with a man.

A good part of this problem is caused by the woeful acting, especially by Lee Se Jin. When will these shows stop casting third rate Idols to clunk around looking uncomfortable?

Overall, this show is tepid and nonsensical and while that means it's an inoffensive watch I wouldn't recommend it.
