The film stands as a symbol of perseverance, patience, and character. Every element of the movie was skillfully crafted, with characters, regardless of size, delivering their best performances, ensuring there's never a dull moment. As time races on, you'll find yourself rooting for the lead character's success.
Notably, the film's strength lies in its compelling story and the outstanding performance of the lead actor, Vikrant Massey, who truly owned and conquered the role. It's disheartening that the movie struggled to gain attention pre-release, overshadowed by high-budget mediocrity like Jawan, Dunki, Animal, and even more disheartening that Netflix opted for a film like Annapoorni-a mere propaganda movie-over this gem.

This is another typical Korean drama. But I loved the series specially because of the acting of the cast and direction
The story was banal but direction and script was good. The attires c were very professional, elegant, chic and stylish, Except for the story, everything else was done masterfully. Jin-a quite artfully displayed her character's emotions, flaws, and resolution. She made her flaws appear humanly. On the other hand Rowoon was as usual brilliant. It really shows up that he researched and well thought about executing the role, if not he is gifted. His micro expressions were amazing, perhaps he is a method actor. I really hope he comes out his comfort zone of being "chocolate boy" and pursue some serious roles.
One thing I really like about romantic K-dramas is they are actually romantic. It's not about lust /sex / physical attraction. They depict the bond of love tastefully, and makes the lust look like a by-product - which is how it should be.

Critically speaking the series deserve 5/10. The flow of story is pretty random, story itself was weak. I liked the costume design though.
But the reason I gave it 9/10 is simply because this series was not meant for critical assessment. The whole intention was to make the audience take the back seat, turn off cynicism and just enjoy. I would say it was successful in making me feel what it intended to- Romantic!
The chemistry between Hung-Jo and Sinyu was critically lame, yet non-critically adorable, funny and cute. Actor Rowoon and Bo-ah were perfect together. Specially Rowoon showed his acting prowess. He gives brilliant yet subtle facial expressions. I watched him on "she would never know" and "the king's affection" and I hope he thinks about acting in movies, and on more serious script. He displayed a lot of potential, and can be something really big and global. Bo-ah is the the cutest, I felt like squeezing her cheeks, haha. Hope to see this pair again.
