L to R: Hyo-rin, Crown Prince Shin, Chae-gyung, Yul
Gosh, this has to be the best Korean show I've watched this year!! Its amazingly great. Its somewhat of a romance commedy. The initial part of the show was more of the commedy portion, and towards the end, its where all the emotions start flowing... ... awesome show! I love it to bits!! (cos i jus love romance flicks ^^)
The story is based on a comic series set in the 21st centruy yet with Korea still being ruled by a royal family.
Shin, having been brought up in the palace where strict rules outweigh family love, is a very cold person. The heavy royal responsibilities does not allow him a private life and has zapped him of all his dreams. He no longer believes in family, love nor frienship. As a result, he also treats Chae-gyung very coldly. After having spent considerable time living under the same roof as her, he starts fallin in love with her. However, he never told her how he felt and what's worse was that his way of showing her care and concern was also so harsh and sarcastic! But behind that, you can feel that he's really just trying to protect her. Whatever he does, he was just doing his utmost to let her be the happy-go-lucky gal she was before she entered the cold palace. And all that he did, he did at the expense of his own happiness! How noble he is... If only someone had taught him how to shower care and concern on a gal... ...
Chae-gyung had long felt Shin's loneliness and really wanted to help him believe that there's warmth in this world. She stood by his side regardless of the countless times she was snubbed by his sarcasm and no matter how Yul tried to win her over. Yul is this super sweet guy in the show who just knows what to say and what to do to make a gal's heart melt. Simply the exact opposite of Shin. Right from the start, he let Chae-gyung know how he felt towards her despite her being his cousin-in-law. Its a weird twist of fate. Yul was the Crown Prince till his dad passed away and palace rules resulted in his mom and him being forced to live outside the palace. If he was still the Crown Prince, then he would've been the one who got married with Chae Gyung. Yul kept planting ideas in Chae-gyung's head that Shin din like her and will never fall in love in her. He also tried to snatch his Crown Prince position back from Shin, hoping that in that way, he could be with Chae-gyung instead. His love for her made him lose himself and did all the evil things. But it was also because of his love for her that made him admit to all the wrong-doings.
Chae-gyung's love for Shin never changed no matter how Shin treated her. She was of course heart-broken when misunderstandings arose and she thought that Shin only loved his ex, Hyo-rin. The problem is that this couple never communicates!! They loved each other and only wanted to do what they could for the other to be happy. But the lack of communication was the result that their actions all ended up wrong! However, she was the one who tore down the walls around Shin, and restored in Shin the belief in family, love and friendship. In the last couple of episodes where Shin finally opened his heart to her, he teared... Awww... the last couple of episodes were really touching!!
The COLD COLD Prince Shin finally opened his heart to Chae-gyung ^^
What a fairy-tale... I want to be in Chae-gyung's position too!! LoL!!
