> A pure, healing and beautiful story about a Masked Boy prince , Emotionless princess and Box Ahjussi.

As the female lead is a fairytale story writer, the show uses a "fairytale story telling" method to bring out some principles of life that touches the bottom of your heart, which I find it very special!



PLOT
------

The plot is nothing special ; very similar to "Come and Hug Me"; It's not the usual korean drama that comes with a cheerful starting, couple fall in love and followed with the story climax. Some people might not like the "psycho" theme drama because of the dark and depressing content, but I find it pretty addictive of its UNUSUAL setting of characters, story presentation and the chemistry between the main leads! As the female lead is a fairytale story writer, the show uses a "fairytale story telling" method to bring out some principles of life that touches the bottom of your heart, which I find it very special!

You will FALL IN LOVE with the two main leads, because they are not the usual main leads you will find in other dramas. The girl is cold on the outside but warm in the inside whilst the male lead is other way round. They both had some bad memories that shaped their behaviours; they hurt each other, but they protect each other as well :) So I would say their interaction and chemistry are the highlight of the show!!!! Not to mention, the three main leads (including the brother) acting is SUPERB! The brotherhood among the two male leads is very touching too and it will make you cry T^T ; young Kang Tae teared me up everytime he appeared (even if i found 70% of the episode boring he would pull me up in the story and connect the emotions)


"Mystery" wise I do think they lacked a little, but it's becasue they didn't use it for cheap thrill and looming danger but it was the base for their healing ; even throughout their "inevitable breakups" it was never about their selflessness or selfishness but it was another natural step to overcoming their past and struggles. I found the pacing in the second half very slow at one point i dropped the show to catch up once its finished airing and i only picked it 2 months later and watched it in the background of some work.

Although the second half is slow ; there is a good character development ( 10% story and 90% filler) and the ending is very satisfying [spoiler] When Sang Tae realized the Kang Tae belongs to Kang Tae and a family is not something to be born with but made with people u meet along. [/spoiler]


CAST
------

The cast in the show is amazing ; Special Thanks for Ye-ji ; I'm seeing her for first time ; her low pitched and cold voice is perfect for the character and storytelling as a author.

Soo-hyun as Kang Tae has given great performance ; the time away at military has actually improved his acting skills ; he is blankless face is his normal skill but in this show he showed perfrect emotions are perfect time.

Sang Tae portrayed one of the difficult characters in the show ; he made us sympathize ; he made us hate him ; he made us laugh and he made us cry and he made us frustrated.

These three pillars were perfect cast to the show and kudos to the director for this amazing cast and breathing life to an somewhat ordinary plot.

side character wise, again they lacked in delivery, the side stories and the effects they used to deliver the stories were beautiful and heartbreaking but I felt like they weren't 100% invested in their stories and they felt like mere time fillers, like Yoo Seung Jae never got any character depth and even though Jo Jae Soo was Moon Gang Tae's best friend for 10 years I couldn't understand how they all miraculously ended up in ok town (I'm sorry I don't know the name of their location xD)that didn't make their unexpected friendships and familial bonds any less meaningful, but I wish they gave them a little more thought

OST & CINEMATOGRAPHY
--------------------------------
The OST is stunning, the direction is beautiful and the pretty story telling incorporating scary fairytales and creepy animations brings everything full circle. Nothing less can be said about the StroyTelling , Graphics , Background Affects and Background Music ; One of the best K-drama if you rate purely on this category . The music and bgm can make us even feel the emotions of Masked Man and Emotionless Princess ; simply outstanding.

REWATCH
-------------
Although the lack of great story and plot or mystery ; this show has high rewatch value just for its cast and bgm.

VERDICT
---------
It's definitely binge worthy and a full of feeling ride that you don't want to miss. Although there were some parts not being well explained, I think you shouldn't be too serious about it and enjoy the scenes and stories this drama has brought to us. It brings joy, intense, sadness and also heart-warming relationships that makes you smile :) I love all the main and side roles and also their sweet and nice characters, the entire casting was pretty pleasing and I enjoyed watching it a lot!

[spoiler]I felt like i was also riding in the camping van when the show ended.[/spoiler] It really is a great and amazing journey. Thank you OKAY Family! Thank you IT'S OKAY TO NOT BE OKAY.
