I don't know why i didn't finish this drama when i first started watching it. I started watching this drama while it was airing in 2016 and i don't know what happened, i must've been busy around that time or something.
I watched about 30 minutes into episode one and then put it to the side and eventually forgot about it.
I never really thought about continuing this drama until i finished my last drama and didn't know what to watch next. I saw that this was on my on-hold or dropped dramas list, and thought that i might as well try watching it again and see if i like it. I didn't have many expectations for this drama when i picked it up again, i thought i had dropped it because i didn't like it. I watched episode 2 and was like "it's an alright drama", but then i found myself getting more and more into it and episode by episode this drama went from "alright" to "Asdfghjkl, IT'S AMAZING".
------------The actual review starts here------------
This drama was to me, like a nice breath of fresh air. After watching some pretty insane dramas with big dramatic plots that makes you question everything and make up theories on what will happen next, it's always nice to take a break and just watch something a bit more lighthearted, where you don't have to think so much and you can just sit there and enjoy the drama. Shopping king louie was exactly that, it's a short and sweet rom-com.
When you read the storyline it might sound a lot like a melodrama, but everything in this drama is played out in a very casual, lighthearted and comedic way that it doesn't make it feel melodramatic at all. Even when there's those cliche scenes that would usually spell out melodrama right away, like the car crash and the amnesia, it doesn't feel melodramatic at all. It's just a nice drama to watch if you don't know what to watch next or you need a break from the more "extreme" dramas.
Story: The storyline of this drama is a twist on something we've all seen before.
A person that lived a somewhat tragic childhood, struggles with things because of that tragic childhood, later on in life. It's the same in this drama. A child that was overprotected and isolated from the world as a kid, grew up with close to no friends and shops his feelings and problems away. The concept of the story is not different, but how the story is played out is different and that's what really matters. I absolutely loved this drama. The comedy was there, i laughed so much while i was watching this drama. Seo In-guk's character was just too cute and a"dork"able and i can't even...
The chemistry was also most defiantly there.
Acting/cast: Great. It's the first drama with Seo In-guk that i've seen and liked. I tried watching Reply 1997 and I remember you, but i didn't end up finishing either of them. But after seeing him act in this drama, i've
considered finishing the other dramas with him in, or at least giving them one more chance. (i just really fell for him.)
I've never seen Nam Ji hyun before, so i can't say anything about my experience with her from before, but she did well in this drama at least.
The rest of the cast was also just great in general.
Music: I loved the music for this drama, especially Tiger moth by Kihyun (the acoustic version asdfghjkl) i just loved that song.
Rewatch value: 8 because i'd watch it again, but not right away and probably not from the very beginning.
