A near-perfect, gem of a drama with a cast that makes it an absolute treat for a cold winter night!

I definitely believe this is one of the best ASIAN dramas ever made. Not just Korean. I mostly watch C dramas and I generally don't watch K dramas, but wow! This one is an absolute gem. The cast is spectacular! Every single one of them, not limited to the ML, lady Choi, the chef, the maid, the queen Dowager and especially the guy who played Kim Hwan. They were fantastic!!However, the main person that carries this entire drama is the FL. She is an absolute joy to watch on screen. She rightfully steals every scene she's in. She genuinely lived and breathed this role. The chemistry between the leads is also a treat to watch.The OST just fits. Every tone, every song that was picked just made each moment that much more hilarious, wonderful and emotional.I won't say it's a perfect drama. There are only a handful that have gotten that title and this does have its flaws, but it comes so close to that title.For one, i think the issue arises when they tried to make the tone very serious and into a high political drama near the end few episodes. It doesn't mesh wholly with the charming tone that the world has setup until now. I can see what they were going for, but it seriously needs a few tweaks. Also, the ending. I think I'll forever be conflicted and upset over how this ended. It was so bittersweet.Even though I loathed how it ended (and I can understand the reasoning behind it but it still hurts), I would still recommend this drama in a heartbeat to anyone, especially for people who think asian dramas, and k dramas in general are nothing but slow burn regurgitated romances with different casts. The sheer creativity and just the overall fun tone in the entire drama makes you realise that the people who worked in this really put their heart into making it. For that alone, it's worth a watch.
