A refreshing, funny & cute drama…

[ STORY ]

I think it's Dali's dresses & the aesthetically beautiful posters that attracted me here but Kim Min Jae aka our cutest character Jin Moo Hak kept me till the end…

The story begins just as written in MDL sypnosis but there's a connection between Dali & Moo Hak that hits off back then in Netherland. No, it's not a childhood connection. So it doesn't looks cliched at all. Dali is apparently an art researcher who is a well educated knowledgeable girl with all social etiquettes of a rich girl & then on the other hand our male lead - Moo Hak is money-lover yet a simple boy who understands it's value. He compares everything with Gamjatang & keeps wondering how many bowls of Gamjatang will this or that cost… lol Moo Hak is hilarious since the beginning. People measuring money in every sentence could be annoying personalities but surprisingly Moo Hak impresses us with those genuine talks & his expressions is off the charts. Tbh, I continued this drama 50% because of Moo Hak…

The first few episodes are dipped in Art. The viewers explore art through the art gallery & emotions of people working there. Also through the journey where Da Li is trying to save the gallery… The Father-daughter relationship is another major thing here. Family drama is something you cannot avoid while watching this. There's lot… like really a lot of inner family troubles, emotional dialogues. The whole suspense they tried to create was quite predictable. My wait for the next episodes was tough… so this is how much this drama kept me hooked up… the chemistry between Moo Hak & Dali reminds me of the cute k-drama "Strong woman Do Bong Son". Their cute scenes & Moo Hak melting up while talking to Dali looked similar to "Ahn Min Hyuk" in SWDBS… but of course, except that cuteness, Min Hyuk & Moo Hak are totally different characters…

♡ Favorite Dailogue ♡ ~ "We all started as a dot. The dot caused the Big Bang and created stars, the sun and the Earth. So, we are nothing but dust and stars at the same time." (by Dali)

♡ My favorite role here ♡ ~ Moo Hak's secretary. She's the best. She's capable and loyal and of course funny too. I loved the acting as well as the character. Just perfectly written & acted.




[ CAST ]

✦ Kim Da Li (acted by. Park Gyu Young) — is the actual main role here. She is good. Like very good. Her crying scenes made me more connected to her role & Yes! she looks so cute with that artistic vibe… she's also cool

✦ Jin Moo Hak (Kim Min Jae) — Ahh, just by his name now, I remember that weird dance & that scene where he said "India's capital is Indonesia". Lol, me being an Indian. I died out laughing in that scene… Jin Moo Hak deserves the limelight he gets through this drama. He's handsome & the way he played this character is great…

✦ Joo Won Tak (Hwang Hee) — he had to be the most close person to Dali after her dad & Moo Hak & I think dramas need more role like this. I was scared he won't be a brother & create an awkward love triangle but No… he was such a caring brother to Dali like helping her all the way & Hwang Hee purely acted this role.

Rest all actors also did a good job with their roles.



[ MUSIC ]

❥♪The sweetest love♪ — Ham Yonji (the song is sunny and cheerful)

❥♪That's ordinary love♪ — Seo ho ~ (Those lines "One step closer. Two steps closer" is just magical… loved hearing this song…)
❥♪Can't you love me♪ — Fromm
❥♪Straight♪ — DinDin (who expected a rap in song up here? lol… but it's cool the way he sang it.)


[ REWATCH VALUE ]

I am not someone who easily rewatches things… but this was good like the comic elemets and some particular scenes that just sounded good. So I will rewatch some clips later…



[ OVERALL ]

Give it a go if you like Rom-Coms with strong & smart female lead. The Comedy is there, cuteness is there, family drama is there & a "little sprinkle" of suspense is there. Pretty much predictable and a light & refreshing drama…
