What a charming series! What delightful leading characters. Kim Seung-woo, from the superlative "Hotelier" revealed his unsure and masculine insecurity to the hilt in this contemporary fairy tale of a 'princess' who fabricates the perfect boyfriend to dissuade her father's plans, only to realize that the 'pauper' she hired is a perfect match for her, and she for him. Choi Ji-woo shines here, though in most series, she's often such a confused damsel in distress that I was pleased her character was more refined and hesitant than wimpy. All in all, a definitive romantic comedy that felt real and with loads of charm and sweetness.
