binged it in 2 days

I was a bit hesitant about watching it since it is an older drama and the oldest kdrama I've watched is Boys Over Flowers which I found to be quite average but Coffee Prince truly did exceed my expectations. I binged it in 2 days because I was that obsessed with it, and I barely binge, but I genuinely could not get enough.

I'll start on what I disliked before I go on my huge rant about how much I love this. The second couple wasn't very appealing. Their loveline was just so messy, getting mad at each other for basically cheating but then doing it themselves and all that. I didn't particularly care about their problems and ended up watching their scenes at 2x at one point. When I rewatch this (and I definitely will), I'm gonna straight up skip their scenes entirely because they felt like such a drag. Another subplot I didn't like was the FL's mother's loveline. The mother isn't very likeable so again I didn't care about her romance with that one uncle. It just felt like a filler.

Now onto what I liked, which is the main couple. Their chemistry was absolutely everything, I could watch a whole other season of them just existing and bickering together no plot needed. It's crazy how well they fitted onscreen, the casting director did an amazing job. I was especially impressed by Yoon Eunhye who plays Go Eunchan. She was so natural playing a tomboy, it did not seem forced at all. The character herself didn't feel like she was forcing her personality to act more like a boy, she was just being herself and everyone else saw it in a male light. Even though it isn't completely believable for us as viewers, I can see how the characters saw Eunchan as a boy, from her appearance and behavior. Gong Yoo's Hankyul, although annoying at times, wasn't the typical arrogant emotionless rich snob that a lot of male leads end up being and I'm so glad for that.

I really enjoyed their love story develop too. Eunchan had to hide her identity/gender because she needed the money and at one point it did become too scary to reveal the truth. A lot of people are like "she could have told him sooner and saved all that trouble" but she got close to Hankyul fast and didn't want to risk losing him, so she kept lying. In times like this it does feel easier to lie, especially something so big that could make them hate you forever. Also I personally LOVED the angst. It was just so good, them getting feelings and trying to avoid each other, making the other person confused.. too good. I understand this isn't for everyone but yeah the angsty scenes happen a decent amount and each time I was yelling at my screen because I loved it that much. The high tension and passionate confessions? Amazing. Couldn't get enough of it. I think we deserved one more episode of them just being a happy cute couple though.

The 'princes'/coworkers were really fun too. I didn't like how easily they let slip the truth about Eunchan's gender to each other considering it was her secret, but other than that they were my second favorite part about this drama. They all have their own individual personalities but when they're together it's a very entertaining mix. They all care about each other. Lee Eon's (rip) character, Minyeop, was my personal favorite. He's so dumb but so sweet you can't help but like him. I loved how he kept looking out for Eunchan and tried to protect her as best as he could.

Overall, this was an amazing drama. I can't stop thinking about it, especially the main couple. Can't wait to rewatch this in a year or two.
