Need more of these dramas
I started watching this drama because i stumbled upon on it in my netflix home page, and when i watched the trailer i was immediately attracted to this drama.The overall story in the drama was good and it matched with the romance story.
Pros
• First of all i ♡ the music in this drama
• i love the fl sm, like her hair and outfits and everything! (I read a comment abt someone criticizing her hair and jm coming for whoever wrote that)
• i also rlly like the ml, hes not like the cold arrogant rich bad boy like the typical ml. He is very quirky and confident (like in the tittle of the drama "cocky prince")
• i ♡ the main couple, surprisingly they're mature and there's no unnecessary breakup or stupid misunderstanding which tend to frustrates me in dramas
• i ♡ the other characters as well especially the ml's assistant in the drama, i kinda fell for her lol
Cons
• I hate the fl's ex bf.

Me arrancou várias risadas!
Tem um enredo interessante, que te prende, mas ao meu ver faltou algo. Gostei muito da atuação do prota, simplesmente perfeita, me pegava muito chorando de rir por conta dele. Acredito que foi isso que fez com que eu me envolvesse toda com a história. Gostei muito também da prota, por ser forte e decidida. Eles se completavam muito e os autores desenvolveram uma química muito boa. Acredito que a OST poderia ter sido melhor, não teve uma música que me marcou. Mas os cenários foram muito bonitos.Was this review helpful to you?
lighthearted rom com
A pretty cute and lighthearted romantic drama that follows a classic opposites attract type of plot. For once, the over-the-top conspiracies and revelations of the more political and thriller part of the drama didn't feel out of place as the plot is a bit over the top from the beginning. The acting is very solid, adding a lot of uniqueness to each character. I enjoyed the secondary characters the most, as they felt well-developed and rounded.Recommended for anyone who wants a typical rom-com kdrama with some political conspiracy on the side, but doesn't mind a formulaic plot

The cutest romance with a dark twist
I never really write reviews but I needed to for this drama. Everytime that I thought that the plot could not take me by surprise or that I couldn't like the couple anymore, it got better.If you are looking for a non-toxic romance with greenlight leads, communication and some spice, this drama is amazing. It is comforting yet has a dark subplot that not only supports the other plots, but also keeps you hooked until the very end.
This drama was like a warm comforting hug and I just could not get enough

Loving a clingy, hilarious, and romantic male lead
Nov. 14, 2021I am living and loving for a male lead like this one. He reminds me so much of Park Hyungsik in Strong Woman Do Bong Soon. If I am being honest, I was shocked at how funny, hilarious, and interesting this drama is.
Dali and Moo Hak's chemistry is just unbelievable off the roof. I love how even though Dali is kinda portrayed as a Damsel in distress type of FL, she ain't dumb! Also, I am so happy that there is no stupid breakup and time-lapse at the end. Cause I swear to God these writers be throwing that damned plot line every motherfking time. From all the depressing dramas and violent shows I watched, I love how this was like a breather for me. Definitely something I will watch just because of how comedy, romance, kinda crimeish, and art are mixed together into this one heck of a ride series.

This pair works. Let's watch it again!
I don't know what makes this main couple work so well, because technically, as other reviewers have said, they're so incredibly different. It might be that when it comes to each other they're patient and willing to at least see from the other person's perspective. When I'm watching dramas these days it feels a bit shallow and up in the cloud but something about this was sweet and felt realistic.I first tried to watch this show in 2021 and again in 2022 or so. I wanted to watch it so badly because I was so impressed by Kim Min Jae (the ML) after watching "Do You Like Brahms?", but I hated the first episode. I tried starting it multiple times because of the great reviews but I couldn't stand his character. He was loud, disrespectful and presumptuous and I think it was supposed to be funny. I don't find that sort of thing funny and I found the first episode unrealistic. He was supposed to be rich but was acting like a child and she was supposed to be smart but was somehow putting up with him. I couldn't understand how this attitude could ever be cute so I gave up on it. But I've been having a hard time lately and needed something funny and easy to watch. I remembered this show that had the slapstick funny first episode that I hated so I tried it again, but this time, I started at episode 2 and skipped 1 (I already finished most of 1 all those times ago anyway).
In episodes 2-5 he's still pretty annoying but to I tried to understand him and understand why the FL wasn't getting mad at him. tbh. I just accepted their dynamic as that really and I don't regret it at all. It only goes up from there- depending on if you will excuse some failings. The worst thing about the ML is the way he speaks to her. He has quite the temper and as I said earlier can be very disrespectful, especially in the beginning when she really didn't need anyone tearing her down unnecessarily like that. He really did berate her. I literally said "Ouch that hurts like a bitch" after something he said and I even thought I would not be able to ever in this world accept their match because he was so mean. Honestly, that scene alone was enough to give the show a 6. I shouldn't gloss over that so easily. So there's that. I guess the reason for my great rating is that I just loved it from the point that their relationship became more solid. I guess his character becomes such a huge support to hers that I just let all that go. After all that, I don't think he will speak to her like that again, for what it's worth.
The story is funny as I had expected and heavy in a way I hadn't expected too but my favourite thing about it is that it's written well. The characters are mostly well done and the story is complex enough that you always want to know what happens next.
The female lead is so beautiful. The number of times I said "God she's so beautiful" is ridiculous. I love shows that have a beating heart with rounded characters and a good and solid story. I usually can't stand obnoxious male leads but he tones it down a bit at some point. There's something about how serious he gets when they're discussing something serious and how relaxed he gets when he's just resting that makes him feel like a real person. This original attitude doesn't exactly change, but sort of fluctuates with the situation just like a real person would. He can also be smart, considerate and sweet and when he loves someone he goes all in 1000%.
When it comes to kdramas I'm a simple person: just give me a good story and characters I can at least understand to some extent. That's why my average rating is so high. It gives me the vibes of older kdramas that I loved in the sense that it managed to balance lightness, deep feelings and a good story without irritating me to death. The ML's secretary also has to be the coolest and most competent secretary I have come across in Dramaland. It also makes him a bit realistic that he isn't 100% perfect.
The female lead is an angel through and through and she's pretty strong. I liked her acting too and all the other actors did a great job. I only spoke about his character the most because I think his character gave the show balance.
I just wish there were a few more minutes in the last episode so I could see more of them. If you're in the mood for a bit of slapstick and can stand an annoying ml for a few episodes I seriously recommend it. I started to wonder again if love like this really exists. Ah, the beauty of a good kdrama and a good story. I want to rewatch it all over again.

The start to this drama was good. Soo good. Its just the ending that makes you want to end it soon. This is not a bad drama at all. But it could have ended in 12 eps. the last four eps were just 1 episode + product placements + scene fillers + dragging for no reason. Starting with the ML... He was an actor i wanted to keep an eye out since i watched Descendants of the Sun. Kim Min Jae has definitely earned the screentime of a ML and i think i could complete this drama because of his efforts (which could be felt in every sinking scene). His character is loud but not annoying, crazy but not tactless. ML was such a kind and sweet guy that sometimes i wish he would reallly be a bit ruder. But overall he carried the drama. Cant wait for more such dramas.
Park Gyu Young as Dali was likeable initially but after a while she didnt seem like an assertive enough person and just got on my nerves for the same reason. The way she forgave huge mistakes was just unbelievable. throughout the drama she felt powerless. She kept needing someone to save her and it was a bit much. Especially when she does react strongly its a great scene. I know people like this do exist but after the traumatic things that happened to her you would expect bigger reactions.
SPOILER: Her biggest reaction was dealing with the thief at the police station and after that nothing.
Annoying characters: OMG. What is up with ML's family. Why isn't there even one redeemable character.
So many slaps in the drama but not one to the stepmom. ML's father was unlikeable, loud and annoying. ( got annoyed with the ML character here because he only seemed mildly bothered by both and didnt take any action against their madness. )
I wonder why writers keep such characters where we are clearly supposed to hate them but still tolerate for some reason???
Like:
- The main leads chemistry. Romance quotient was high...
- Good aesthetic
- Happy Ending
- Humour level was good . ML definitely hard carried the drama.
- The few episodes that had a bit of mukbang/food scenes ( Ep 1, 11, 12 , 16)
- The cop friend, the secretary and museum staff.
Dislike:
- THE PARENTS!!! Ughhh.
- Dali's hairstyle ( I mean... maybe change it after some eps.
- Last 3-4 draggy eps.
- Everything else was alright.
Overall: It has veryy few art references. Only the location is a museum.
Watch it for KMJ , the leads chemistry and a fairly good plot.

Pretty good
It did take me a while to finish because it wasn't 100% interesting but when it ended I felt quite happy to have watched it. There were a lot of characters that I really disliked from the very beginning and a few I knew whocouldn't be trusted.
I didn't like the fact that Taejin basically ruined Dali's family's name just so he can get the girl which is Dali herself. Not only did he ruin the family name, he also let her father die right in front of him. I swear, when he said "Over my dead body" I had a feeling where things will go and I was right.
I really liked Muhak for Dali. Even though they had their ups and downs at first, he was still there for her and she for him. Their relationship is one of the healthiest ones that I have seen lately (A little sad, I know).
Muhak's family sucks!! They really do. I hated the fact that his dad cared more about his step son than he did for his actual son, his own blood.

MCs' personalities were too tiring for me
Lately I don't try too hard to finish a drama, so at least this was worth finishing! And in my opinion it got better on latter episodes.What I wasn't a fan of were the characters. Not really the acting, the actors did a really good job, but the script itself made the personalities too overwhelming.
Dali too "noble" and composed and Jin too loud and rude all the time. I wouldn't mind if it was a little bit less intense.
That being sad, when they start to grow attached it got muuuuch better! He became less irritating and she less frustrating throughout the drama. Overall we got a great character plus relationship development. Yay! I deff would've dropped it if it weren't the case though.

The second lead in here is actually terrible and this was the first time where i actually disliked the second lead with my whole heart. Like he was just a pure asshole and he wasn't likeable at all.
Most characters in here very pretty cool tho especially dali, i really liked her personality and how she handled most stuff.
I don't really remember how much of my attention span was on here but i do remember that park seoham made like a 5 second guest appearence there as one of the kpop group members and it was so random but its one of the things that stuck with me.
Its a pretty cute kdrama overall, i recommend it!

take note on how to make complex yet easy to understand characters like this.
The plot isn't anything special but the characters are what makes this show greatFL: Everything an heiress should be. competent, dignified and charming. She gets put into a situation where she needs to take control of the falling family business once her father dies.
ML: He's ignorant and uneducated yet through his wits and hardwork, He managed to become a successful person. After meeting Dali. He slowly realizes theres more to success in life than in money.
SML: He's powerful and he knows it. He always has a plan and if it fails there's a plan B. He's not evil, He's just manipulative and will do anything to get his way. A great antagonist to the whole show.
SFL: She's spoiled and ignorant. Her only purpose in life was to be used to make connection for his father. A pitiful existence that's been tamed with social status/money. Easily my favorite character.
