The story is so thin and predictable that it would rely only on the characters and the actors to make it enjoyable (just like every trendy and fusion sageuk). Sadly, it was not that factor didn't work in this one, and the lack of chemistry from the leads is jarring to the point of being unwatchable, while the other characters are too over the top and uninteresting. I think SSK gave her best but she had to act against a plain wall so it was hard to sell it. Maybe if the Prince had been played by an actual actor...

Honestly I only finished watching because SSK's character was lovable and refreshing in some ways and I felt like she deserved some of my attention. However the rest of the drama is an absolute skip. Sometimes I will accept thin script and bad plot for some sweet romance, but not even that worked in this show. Not even the music was interesting, or the locations/clothes design. Everything about it is mediocre to the limit of what's actually bearable.

Unless you are a huge fan of any of the actors involved or a completist, I do not recommend watching this one. Waste of time.
