Acting/Cast: I loved many cast members, and hated other characters (there's always at least one lol). Park So Dam was the female lead, and I have never seen her in another show. For me, I really enjoyed her acting and the chemistry she had with Jung Il Woo. She has become a favorite for me. As for Jung Il Woo, I much preferred him in this role than his role in Flower Boy Ramen Shop. The maturity and playfulness were at levels that just seemed more appropriate for him. Ahn Jae Hyun has quickly become a favorite of mine, I loved him as the younger brother in You Who Came From the Stars, and I enjoyed him in this show. However, His relationship with Son Na Eun was overly obnoxious and tiring with the push and pull. Lee Jung Shin played his role very well, acting so perfect and jilted but loyal. I really enjoyed watching him. Choi Min Sung was quite good as well, very subtle nd I think many don't give him enough credit. He was very good. Overall the cast was not bad at all; everyone fit their roles. There were just characters you like, hate, and couldn't care less about.
Music: THIS SHOW HAD A WONDERFUL SOUNDTRACK. I enjoyed the music more than the show I think. I immediately downloaded the OST. The songs are recognizable, even when mixed and altered for different parts of the show. Each song used in te show fits so well, adding rather than distracting. Anyone who knows me knows how important that is. The sound effects that I remember were not too distracting, especially considering I can't remember any in particular.
Rewatch: I would not rewatch this, however, blooper compilations for it are hilarious. If some compilation of good and bad moments in the show came up (how some people put moments together for fan-made music videos? I might watch that). I do know some people enjoy it enough to rewatch all of the show or certain episodes. I would have to be very bored and have nothing else to watch.
Overall: This drama was alright, you love some actors and their characters and get incredibly tired of others. The music is the best part, the story was okay. I wouldn't rewatch this, even for background noise, but I know some will. I would give it about a 7.5.

WARNING: SPOILER ALERT!!!
I don't understand why didn't Eun Ha Won (Female Lead) pick Hyun Min. At first, I expected this drama to be good, even this started with many clichés such as Pretended Relationships and having a Poor Girl. Despite all of that I continued watching this drama. It is fun until episode 8-9 where Hyun Min confessed her feelings to Ha Won, the story just change as fast as the speed of light.I did not expect that I would prefer second male lead (Hyun Min) for her. Since, there are so many good things that he done for the female lead than Ji Woon (the one Ha Won chose). I prefer Hyun Min since he is so warm to Ha Won and also he did so many things and favor for her. It is so unfair that the one of the three knights who criticizes her the mostand done the least for her is the one she chose. It happens in so many dramas for no reason... The female lead not taking the admiration of a man to be serious, that is why they try to pick the other one. I really hope that she just chose the better one.. I guess I should just move on from this drama. This drama could be better honestly...
BUT I WILL CONTINUE WATCHING THIS DRAMA TILL THE END AND HOPE IT WILL MAKE A REASONABLE EXPLANATION FOR WHAT HAPPENS...

Another poorly written kdrama
At least after reading other reviews im not the only one to have a bad impression of this kdrama. Poor girl who takes no s*** of anyone (exept her step mum and sister who treat her like garbage!) Turns into a complete imbecile within the first 2 episodes (despite getting into college). She is frustratingly stupid, suddenly lacks all confidence and becomes as pathetically pissweak as your standard female lead for these kinds of shows. Admittidly im only starting ep5 but i dont hold out much hope for anything dramatically changing given the other reviews. It will most likely be yet another kdrama where i keep skipping through the majority of it and concentrate on the scenes with the, at least slightly, interesting characters only.Was this review helpful to you?
I'll admit these tropes aren't really my style, but I love Ouran High School Host Club - probably because it was so genre-bending and absurd even whilst it followed usual tropes. Cinderella & TFK sticks to exactly the cliche plotline you'd expect. Worse, each characters is more a cutout of a character - they all belong to a "type" and I doubt they're going to be expanding more beyond that. Yawn. Even worse, I've only watched 4 episodes but I bet I could tell you the arc of every single character and where they'll end up - "plot twists" and all and be right on the money. I don't expect brilliant storytelling from romcoms but I expect something at least. Some sort of sign that heart was poured into this.
Props to the second female lead not being totally evil (as far as I watched) but on the downside she's just kinda... boring. So idk if I'd call that much of a win. Biggest props to our main lead whose lovely and positive but no pushover and knows exactly where to draw the line & give as good as she gets. Maybe one day I'll speed through the episodes just for Park Sodam (or just watch a youtube edit lol).
But for now I wouldn't recommend. Stay away, especially if paper-thin romcoms and cardboard storytelling isn't your thing.

I thought the FL was whiney and repetitive.
I thought the drama was full of over-the-top cliches.
I thought the music was too loud
I thought this was boring and predictable
I thought this was really bad.
That was when I watched two episodes, before I gave it another chance
Maybe because the timing was good (this time), the third episode started getting a lot better and the chemistry was so good.
Things were simple and light, I started empathizing with the characters, and I actually really enjoyed it. I kept looking forward to the episodes.
I was able to look past the cliches and enjoy it
The OST is like of classic older dramas which I missed for a while.

What a let Down!
What a shit show! Cast were reasonable and they did a pretty good job.I know making a tv show is not easy, it take time, hard work, money and lot of effort. So I am not always too critical about a show knowing that so many people worked so hard to bring it to their audience. The story was horrible, the story writer could not figure out what the show is about. There was no consistency and continuity. No Creativity.
I am not sure how this was released it in the first place. The Director, what was he doing/thinking directing this kind of show. Is he not ashamed of himself? The story writer, how does he put this on the film to show all of his incompetence for everyone?
I am embarrassed for everyone who made this show.
