this Male Lead and thi s motley cooking crew made this drama work

It looked like an interesting premise and drama and so, I went right in. I have watched FL a couple of times. She is a rather pretty FL but her acting chops aren’t the most impressive. This is the first time that I am watching the ML. I would say that he’s a pretty fine actor and he did a better job than FL.

What I Liked:
- The ML turned out to be very watchable.
- The motley crew of cooks turned out to be a cute supporting cast.
- The food shown per episode was interesting and looked delectable. I looked forward to finding out about the food to be presented per episode. The background CG which was shown when the food was enjoyed was cute. Very LOL.
- The cooking competition was fun to watch.
- There was some palace thingy going on to try to keep the intrigue.

What I Didn’t Like:
- I didn’t like the (to me) confusing palace intrigue to do with the deposed queen and all that.
- The crazy consort acted well but well, she was too cray cray for me.
- The Je San fellow and all the old bearded men were also kind of cray cray.
- I didn’t like the bloodthirsty characters and bloodshed in the last two episodes even though I understood their necessity.
- The ending could have better IMO. It seemed a little rushed.

Overall, I still enjoyed this drama especially the good, fun parts. :o)
Additionally, the ML worked to keep this drama going. Kudos to him. The food was great. I enjoyed watching the food prep come to fruition per episode. 8/10!
