Cinderella and the Four Knights (2016)

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.

These reverse-harem storylines or even normal harem storylines are only as good as the characters who fill the harem. Each one needs to have their own charm, solid story & arc to make it worthwhile. In this drama's case it's clear that won't be happening even from the four episodes I watched.

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.

During the first two and a half episodes
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.

I watched this drama because my friend recommended this to me. I really expected a lot. Well the first few episodes were really good. I usually ask myself who will she end up with. But then after watching 6 episodes, the plot starts to be boring in my opinion. Since I could feel the boredom while I was watching it, I decided to spoil myself to see if this is worth watching. I took a glimpse on the last episode and I was disappointed on how the things ended up. So I decided to drop it. I don't have any right to say if the drama is nice or not since I didn't finish the whole thing. But I think this drama is worth watching for some and boring for others. It really depends on the person whose watching it since we have different opinion about the plot of a drama. So for those who are planning to watch this, you should try at least so that you'll know if you'll like it or not. Anyway this is just my review. I don't mean to offend anyone.

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.

My Favorite n Ima Dude Like Cmon

Let me just say real fast i hate female lead not because i hate females or I'm sexist its as a male myself i can relate more to a male lead than a female lead but this ultimately became one of my absolute number one favorites as a k drama and even though it was a female lead i could still find things that were so good with the story and production

The Character Drama and Character Development To Me Was By Far One of The Best Iv Seen From Most K Dramas How Ha Won Went From Tom Boyish To More Girlish But Keeping Some of That Tom Boyishness and i Think Its That Tom Boy in Her That Made Me Feel Like Her And Ji Woon Were Meant To Be Really The Rebellious Guy With The Tom Boy Strong Girl Is Perfect I Think The Bad Reviews Come From People Wishing She Would Have Got With The Other Brothers But This Ending Was The Best Outcome And This Show Had The Perfect Amount Of Romance Comedy And Anticipation

Funny, cute + sweet

This was super cute and funny. I really enjoyed it! There were some slow parts, but it has a slow burn. I loved the female leads relationship with all the guys! I feel like she had something special with each of them. She was really amazing, throughout the story she stayed true to herself and wanted to do what she thought was right for the ones she cared for. I think I rooted more for her to pick Kang’s Hyun min, he was my favorite, even though he was arrogant. He really grew on me. I did love how the story unfolded, and I look forward to more shows with these actors.
