The thing about web dramas is that it's a lot easier to forgive their failings because they're so short. I thoroughly enjoyed my watch of Noble, My Love despite the many things wrong with it.
What I liked:
The story
It was cliched and trope-y but still utterly engrossing. I'm not sure I'll ever tire of contract relationships. I also thoroughly love the whole person a took care of person b in time of need and now person b is utterly in love and doesn't know what to do with themselves.
The characters
Cha Yeon Soo actually kept her spunk. These days I'm so used to spunky female leads becoming doormats the instant they start falling for the male lead but that thankfully never happened to Yeon Soo! I've also never seen a character that was a vet before it was super interesting and I really believed that Yeon Soo loved her job and loved animals.
I also liked the plethora of side characters. Both the little brothers were great. The actors playing them had better acting than the leads in my opinion so they were a delight every time they were on screen.
The shortness
Like I mentioned, web dramas are great because they're short. I never felt like the story was weighted down with filler. We got exactly what we needed from each 0 minute episode.
What I didn't like:
Lee Kang Hoon
He embodies everything wrong with kdramas when writing male leads. He's controlling and demanding. He always has to have things his way and there's never any character development. There were several times where this character alone almost made me drop the drama. I'm so sick of alpha male bullshit in kdramas and I hope this is a dying trend.
The acting
So far, I've loved Sung Hoon in everything I've seen him in (especially Oh My Venus) but here he was just....not good. Kim Jae Kyung is also my favorite member of Rainbow so I was hoping she would do well. However, both of them weren't that great. They had moments and they definitely had chemistry. But their acting ranged from over the top to stiff to mediocre. I found a lot of the side characters had better acting than these too which is a down right shame.
Overall
I think this was a cute little watch and I'd recommend it if you're in the mood for a cliche feel good drama. You know exactly what you're getting when you watch it.
