Previews look promising with future plot twists and turns. The charm of this drama is that even though the premise is very simple on the surface – girl wants to return to her home country, the introduction of side plots and depth of characters is creating a beautiful story that comes alive. I felt Se-ri’s despair in ep4 as well as Jeong Hyeok’s slow-growing attachment. I am a little puzzled as to why they didn’t recognise each other, since they appear to have met, albeit briefly, in Switzerland. The show’s made it ambiguous enough though so that it’s believable that two strangers would be unlikely to recognise each other a number of years later.

Currently watching Cinderella and Four Knights simultaneously – it’s a sort of fluff filler to stop me from getting too engrossed in CLOY. While it’s awesome to feel enveloped in a drama, it also spells doom for when the drama ends and you’re left in the real world. Hence, Cinderella and Four Knights is sort of my exit ticket for when that happens 🤔.
