Cheesy historical gender-bent Cinderella retelling
Gender-bent romance that is basically a more fluffy and cute Cinderella retelling.
Don't get me wrong, this drama is one of the better historical rom-coms wth many hilarious moments and a very cute romance between the crown prince & his eunuch. I really hate gender-bent romances but this trope was well done, though I wished the identity was revealed much earlier.
Great chemistry, it was like watching two puppies fall in love. The plot moved quick but it was layered well up until the ending. The curse of the last episode struck again. There was so much building up like Ra On's rebel father, the guard's hidden identity, and the court officials involvement in the Crown Prince mother's death yet everything was immediately solved. How can the stakes be high if it look less than 5 minutes of screen-time for it to be over with? I wish there were more episodes to flesh it out.
Overall, a fun watch with beautiful OSTs, heartfelt characters, and an incredibly adorable love story.
