A Great Drama With Some Flaws

Dali and the Cocky Prince is a very unique drama about a very smart and sophisticated girl whose about the lose her wealth and a nouveau riche boy who has street smart but no education and is unsophisticated. When it comes to tropes about portrayal about relationship and characters it subverts all of your expectations. You see one of the healthiest relationships blossom between characters you wouldn't expect the get along. Stingy guy learns that there are more important things than money while the girl who knows nothing about real world learns about struggles people give for money and a better life. All while they love, care and most importantly communicate with each other. They never give up their ideals and identity for the relationship, they never use their influence on each other to stake claim. They don't become new people but they become their best self. In that self Dali and the Cocky Prince is perfect. However Dali and the Cocky Prince may not be what you've expected, it was not i expected. You may have heard it's rom-com and it's true but mystery and thriller is very big part of the drama. All of the chaebol stuff going on backwards drives the story more than the relationship itself. On that part Dali and the Cocky Prince is nothing special. It rewards your attention and theorizing but that means the story is very easy to predict. Which also means it's very up to K-Drama tropes and does nothing much to subvert or improve it.

Overall I think Dali and the Cocky Prince is a very good drama wit amazing highs and okay lows. I suggest people to watch if they are looking for healthy portrayal of relationship in drama, nice and unique humor and interesting characters.
