If you're going into this drama expecting a super deep convoluted plot with twists and turns and grand moments of satisfaction this is probably not it. This drama is mostly a cute romance with some intrigue happening in the middle and not a lot of suspense.

I think I've become a bit used to these Joseon period dramas to have a more thriller vibe so that's why I was a little taken aback when things turned out to be pretty simple. This does not mean the drama is not enjoyable. It's actually a well acted and visually gorgeous, but the story itself is predictable and pretty straightforward. It's something to watch on a lazy sunday when you don't want to think much.

That being said awesome job to the cast for making all the characters lovable with their acting. I think ML is the star here, his character could have been incredibly unlikeable from the way he's written especially at the start, yet he has a charm and a presence that drawns you to him. He has a good mastery of micro expressions that tell you that not everything his "rude" characters says is what he means or comes from the heart and whenever he acts like an ass in those first episodes you can tell there's more to it. FL is pretty good too. She's brave, lovable and kind, though towards the end she became a bit tiring for me to watch her as her decisions were a bit too self-sabotaging and that is one of my pet peeves.

I do have to give especial kudos to every side character. I'm personally not a fan of side characters usually but this is one of those dramas that made everyone so lovable so they upped the drama and raised the raiting for me. Just awesome job.

Overall this drama is enjoyable and a fun watch.
