dangermousie | My Princess - initial thoughts

So. First ep.

If you are looking for meaningful, tense, serious drama, stay away. MP is, unabashedly and deliciously, fluff. But it's fast-paced, funny, adorable, pitch-perfect one. I love both Song Seung Heon and Kim Tae Hee's characters already - the smart diplomat both amused and boggled by the spunky, chattering, penny-pinching college student who is utterly unimpressed by his looks or status. They have a fun warm vibe and excellent chemistry. Their interactions make me grin. I especially adore Tae Hee's character - I'd love to hang around with her. Ryu Si Young is looking sexaaaaaaay as the young professor crush of Tae Hee and secondary girl looks and acts appropriately bitchy and not in a "secretly wounded and awesome" Seul from Secret Garden way.

Can't wait for more shippy interactions. Bring it on!

Now, if this remains pure fluff throughout, I might become bored and drop it - I don't deal well with fluff-only dramas. But seeing that this lady co-penned Lovers (which I adore and which had plenty of delicious angst), I hope it won't stay an angstless drama forever. I mean, SSH looks so good angsty and bruised, it would be a pity to waste it.

So far - a definite yay from me!
