Noble, My Love (2015)

Bien pour un petit break entre deux longs dramas.

Pas de surprise, histoire connue, on retrouve toujours les mêmes ingrédients. On n’a pas l’impression que la production avait beaucoup de moyen, ce n’est pas toujours de qualité.

On se laisse porter par l’histoire, mais sans non plus être transportés.

Le lead masculin m’a quand même bien fait grincer des dents.

Le lead féminin par contre est bien portée, et je l’ai bien apprécié.

C’est un mini drama de 7 épisodes de 45 minutes, c’est parfait pour une petite pause entre deux dramas, mais il ne faut pas en attendre plus.

Yay, a short-cut to bliss! If you like cheesy Korean romantic dramas but don't have the time to watch the lengthy ones or the patience to tolerate the evil mother-in-law or the plotting sister-in-law or the jealous ex-gf occupying prime time, this is the one for you! ^^

Story: Nothing new here, rich guy comes across a poor girl who's not smitten by money. He gets curious about her and falls in love. The girl follows suit. There is some parental opposition, obsessed lover-wannabe, etc. but they don't play make much difference to the storyline.

Acting/Cast: It centers around just two characters played by Sung Hoon and and Kim Jae Kyung. I liked Jae Kyung in God's Quiz 4, but this was my first time watching Sung Hoon. Though I won't say they did an exceptional job, but they kinda complemented each other on screen very well. His brother and secretary and her friends play minor roles in the story, though I didn't pay much attention to them.

Music: Nothing original but considering 15-min episodes, they suffice.

Rewatch: Yes, yes and yes! Mainly coz it's so short, but also coz of the feel-good factor.

Concluding Thoughts: Nothing new about the story, nothing new about the execution, nothing spectacularly great about the acting and yet - it's pretty much awesome considering the time invested.
