This drama was so much fun to watch! Based on the promo picture, and the synopsis, I expected this to be really corny, but I was so wrong. Rooftop Prince was funny, romantic, tragic, suspenseful, and enjoyable from start to finish. The story sometimes takes things to the K-Drama extreme, but the acting is so good that they made the unbelievable believable. I also liked watching the parallel story lines, and loved not being able to predict what was going to happen next. The whole cast is great, but I adored the "Joseon Power Rangers", who I will just refer to as Yellow, Green, and (my favorite) Blue. Each had an endearing personality that made them real characters, and more than just comic relief in color coordinated outfits. They are definitely a huge highlight. As far as evil characters go, Lee Tae Sung, and Jung Yoo Mi do their very best to make sure you absolutely HATE them. I immediately forgot any other drama that I liked Lee Tae Sung in, because my anger at Tae Mu took over completely. Jung Yoo Mi managed to anger me even more with her outstanding performance as evil Se Na. Together they made me yell obscenities at the screen, and I loved watching them top themselves with new reasons to make me hate them in every episode. The two main leads were so good. Han Ji Min was great as perpetual victim Bak (or Park?) Ha/, and won my sympathy without coming across as a weak doormat. I absolutely fell in love with Micky Yoochun, and thought he was great balancing multiple parts, and making each distinct personality work. I loved them both in previous dramas, and I really loved them together. Their chemistry was impressive, even though their first kiss scene was not (although they do make up for it later). There are so many rewatchable cute moments, romantic/sweet moments, and tearjerking/heartbreaking moments between them. The plot involves mysteries of the past, and present, being revealed, but romance is what drives the story. There are a few repetitive moments, but overall their romance is done very well. By the end, all the important questions do get answered, although I thought that the last episode felt a little rushed while doing so. Some people may find the ending confusing, but I think they are just over thinking it. I wasn't quite sure how it would all end until the very end, and I think that's a good thing. I was also satisfied with the end, though it definitely left me wanting more. Now I can't finish this review without mentioning the music. I immediately had to have it on my iPod. I get amped by the cheesy "Happy Ending" song, my heart breaks when listening to Ali's "Hurt", and I even loved the instrumentals. The songs enhanced each scene, and were memorable without being distracting. The soundtrack is a sure 10. Rooftop Prince has the charm of a beloved fairy tale. I am hesitant to give dramas a 10, even if I love them, so I'm giving this a 9. If you focus on plot holes, unrealistic scenarios, and what is or isn't probable, I'm sure you will find flaws, but I was too into the story to be bothered by any of that. I just finished watching it, and I miss it already. I am almost tempted to watch it all again right now!
