When I watched the first episode, I knew that I was going into another Cinderella syndrome drama. Also, I had not watched the original Taiwanese version. After the early episodes I was sure it was just another Cinderella story, but a very well executed one. I have watched tons of drama, which sometimes I did not complete since sometimes it was boring, the casts had no chemistry and maybe I was too busy. But this drama was a winner over my time and attention.

The casts in this drama are perfect, even the minor supporting roles. I will not give away any spoiler, but even the minor role like the lawyer, even comical was pleasant additional to the drama. The greatest cast was the main male lead, whom I had not watched before. He could really bring smile, laughter and tears. Such a great actor. This show is shining because of him, and of course the female main lead, whom I had not watched also.

The plot to the end of the drama was anti-climax, but still it is a very enjoyable show and maybe the best I have seen in 2014. Way much better compared to the popular Love from Stars which was sometimes boring, even when it had the super sassy girl.

And the OST, it made me searched the title of the song and singer. It was such a great song performed very well.

Conclusion: A must watch.

I watched this drama due to the popularity of this drama in search engine. Early episodes were quite OK, but as soon as it got into the mid of the journey, it got really boring that I had to force myself to see the end. There were just way too many flashback scenes, that if those were omitted, maybe the show as half shorter and maybe better.

I think the popularity is mainly due to the cute male lead who I truly agree was a candy eye to female audiences. The supposed to be funny scenes were not laughter inviting and the romantic scenes were not romantic enough. Somehow I think the main casts were better as sister and brother. They even looked a bit alike.

Anyway, if you are into cute flower boy and noona love type scenes without real plot, this is your movie. But, unfortunately, not mine.
