This drama was... not really what I was hoping it would be. And I think a lot of people agree. With the cast and Netflix production budget, it had great potential, but.....
Overall, I actually did think that the premise was interesting. But the editing of the time jumps and the overlap in plots between episodes made the story unnecessarily confusing. The drama is beautifully shot and the CGI is well done. I'm not the biggest fan of Kim Eun Sook's writing, because I feel like she re-uses a lot of tropes, which makes dramas a bit lackluster in my opinion. The only reason I really committed to watching this drama all the way through was because of Lee Min Ho, which is an accomplishment for me because I couldn't finish Goblin (also written by Kim Eun Sook) for the same reasons.
In regards to acting/casting, Lee Min Ho is fantastic as usual. He really excels at portraying the aristocratic wealthy prince type. I just wish that the story was more comedic overall, but especially in regards to his character, because we all know he can pull it off based on his past roles. I also really felt that there was no chemistry between the main leads. I've never been the biggest fan of Kim Go Eun, because it always seems like she doesn't truly vibe/connect with the male leads in her dramas which make her characters seem a bit dull in my opinion. I felt the same way about her roles in Goblin and Cheese in the Trap, because I know that the male leads in all of these dramas have pulled off outstanding performances with other female leads. Overall, Woo Do Hwan pulled off my favorite performance of the season with his outstanding portrayals of two very different characters. I want to see him as a ML in the future FOR SURE.
Otherwise, OSTs were nothing particularly noticeable. I also will not be rewatching because I don't think it's really worth it. If you really enjoy these actors, maybe check out some of their other works first and save this for later.
TLDR; It didn't blow me out of the water like it should have, give Woo Do Hwan a main role!
