REVIEW: This was a very fun kdrama. I love that it breaks the stereotype of women being weak (although at some points it gets absurd). There was a lot of slapstick scenes. I love the hint of mystery and suspense it had at some point because of the kidnapping plot although it kind of lost it's focus there and focused more on the romance (not that I'm complaining because the romance was very adorable). Still, they could have given more emphasis on the kidnapper and his line of thinking. Park Bo Young and Park Hyung Sik had a pretty wonderful chemistry and I liked seeing them together so much that even though I love Ji Soo I didn't care much for him. It was my first time seeing Park Hyung Sik in a korean drama and I loved him here. He was very fun and adorable but had serious moments too.
I love the romance between Bong-soon and Min-hyuk so much that I didn't care for Gook-doo. Besides, it's his fault for not prioritizing Bong-soon and not realizing his feelings earlier than he did. He was still a good sport and I loved having him there.
I cringed a lot whenever there was a scene where Ji Soo or Park Hyung Sik cross-dressed. It was funny but also kind of creepy because they looked good especially Hyung-Sik. He was really pretty.
It was fun seeing Min-hyuk train Bong-soon. She broke so many things. Still, she succeeded.
Bong-soon and Min-hyuk were adorable together. I love how much Min-hyuk cared for her even if he did tease her a lot. It overwhelmed me that Min-hyuk was willing to die to protect Bong-soon and to make her not feel alone (so much feelings especially during the bomb scene).
I found it hilarious that many of the members of the gang were beaten up by Bong-soon and that even though they held a grudge against her, at some point they still helped each other.
I love Bong-soon's father. He cared a lot about her and was even willing to give her money that he painstakingly saved.
I didn't like Bong-soon's mom in the beginning. She treated her husband as a slave and often got mad at Bong-soon even when she didn't do something wrong. She only just started having a positive side after Min-hyuk got stabbed while protecting Bong-soon.
I really loved Park Hyung Sik as Min-Hyuk. He was fun and adorable but he had his serious moments too. He was so cute at some point towards Bong-soon and I don't think anyone else could have pulled that off. I'd probably get annoyed if it was a different actor.
Bong-soon had a pretty weird and absurd wardrobe. Still, Park Bo Young was pretty cute (although at some times I found her annoying especially in the beginning but on the latter parts I got used to it).
It broke my heart that it was Min-hyuk's second brother who betrayed him. Also, it seemed that his family problems were just easily resolved and brushed off rather than being the main problem. It could've been explored more.
I hated that the kidnapper took Bong Soon's friend and even had her lose her powers. I was scared for her and for Min-hyuk. I didn't recognize him as the man who pretended to be the fiance of one of the girls.
The head gangster was weird af and so is the monk he went too.
The poop water was very weird.
I loved seeing Bong-soon help others and punish those who belittle the weak. She was also pretty badass when she beat up the gangsters, rescued the girls, and defeated the kidnapper.
I don't like Hee-ji and Bong-ki together. I don't even think they're necessary for the plot so I don't understand why they had to happen.
Kim Won Hae as Kwang-bok and Dol-byung was hilarious. I don't get why they always use him as bully material but it was funny especially since he played two roles.
I love that Min-hyuk's probably ended up beating up the gangster boss for getting Min Hyuk stabbed.
I found the ending very hilarious especially since Bong-soon and Min-hyuk had twin daughters. Even the gangsters gave up on babysitting and Min-hyuk ended up getting beaten.
