B+ for effort, would recommend- SPOILER

I loved this drama, this was the first drama I watched with the cinderella trope and I loved it.

Of course, some scenes want to make me roll into a ball and pass away but altogether not bad compared to some dramas I watched. Now let me talk about things I didn't like.

1. The main couple was rushed - For almost half the drama I kept thinking she would end up with the SML, The first of the MLS she met at the bar, the guy that asked her to pretend to be his girlfriend, and the guy that overall had the best chemistry with her. so I was quite disappointed when I soon came to realize he was not the ML.

I feel like the fl and the ml had little to no chemistry, they weren't horrible together but tbh I hated the ml because he was such a fucking asshole to her. he spent half the story being such a bitch to her because the girl he has a crush on is butt hurt that someone else doesn't like her back ( the SML I was talking about )

Their relationship seemed like some sort of horrible last-minute plot twist idea. The whole love hexagon or sum was already confusing their relationship came out of nowhere.

2. THE HEXAGON WAS EVERYWHERE - It's not that it was some cringey love triangle, it was some reverse harem with only 2 logical ships.
The Kpop guy felt like her brother so not him
The secretary had little to no interaction with the fl
The ml was so fucking rude to her and he seemed to love the sfl more than he loved her. iI the sfl liked him back their relationship would be non-existent.

so that leave us with her and the sml( the only guy who i count as a good candidate and who she actually seemed to have chemistry with )

3. I hate the sfl - I just don't like her. From the moment I set my eyes on her I knew she would cause trouble, she wasn't a bitch or anything, and she didn't try to harm the fl tbh I feel like they would have had a cute friendship if explored more. but she was 99% of the arguments between the sml and the ml. ie

sfl tries to get ml to like her
sml doesn't care and says he likes fl
sfl gets emotional and runs to ml to cry even though she does not like him and probably should have caught on to the fact that he liked her.
ml gets mad at sml and fl for some reason

4. The characters -

The FL: I liked her, although her character is the stereotypical " girl who is strong but not too strong because she can't stand up for herself too much, that isn't girly " ill give her a 3.5/5 she was okay and could have been better without all the miscommunications and I liked how she sometimes minded her business.

The ML: Every time I see him I want to go on a rant but I won't because I don't care enough for him. I know it seems like I shitting on him here (i am ) but he and the fl were a good couple for the short time we got to see them together. would have liked it better if they had fully convinced us he fell out of love with the sfl. 3/5

The SML: As much as I liked him with the fl he was kind of an asshole to the sfl. and as much as I don't like her I feel like she deserved better than to have ended up with him. 3/5

The SFL: She needs to boast her self-esteem more she shouldn't have ended up with the sml. tbh the ml was better for her 3.2/5

The kpop idol guy: meh...he was there I guess I like how he wasn't involved in too much mess 3.5/5

The secretary: I loved this character I really like his back story with his mother, it probably was the most interesting part of this drama, I felt so bad for him :( 4.5/5

The story was okay, I was more interested in the secretary and his mother's story & the fl's dead mother than the other romance tbh.
I would recommend though, it's funny sometimes and heartwarming. I'm just nitpicking at the bad parts.

also, stepmom and sister got their karma

Cute and fluffy

It is what it is. This is a fluffy, romantic comedy sprinkled with melodrama.
If the title did not make it abundantly clear, it's about a poor, mistreated, down on her luck girl and 4 good-looking, well-off men whose lives get entangled.
Be very clear about the implications of watching a fluff drama:
1. Don't expect logic.
2. Don't expect realistic portrayals.
3. Expect over-the-top stuff.
4. Expect Love triangles and love polygons.
5. Expect drama.

FYI, the FL is not a ditzy damsel in distress. Quite the contrary.

Keeping all the points mentioned above in mind, this drama is quite enjoyable. The story while predictable is engaging (I did skip through the unnecessary plot points like the step family plotting, fake dad ). The acting is good, decent. The leads are natural and have great chemistry with eachother. I loved Il Woo. Lots of cutesy scenes and pretty good kissing scenes that had me swooning. The story can get annoying ( reasons why the FL-ML break up, wrong-doers not punished, no meaningful redemption for Cinderella 's dad, etc.). But, it has a happy ending.

Good set of OST.

The romance, the fluff and all the cute stuff made it enjoyable to me despite the shortcomings in the story. If you enjoy fluffy stuff or are looking for a drama to pass time, this meets the criteria.

the corniest and cheesiest thing ive ever watched, but i ate that UP!

you HAVE to love the ost. btob, you will always be perfect

anyways, it is an easy-to-digest show with an extremely lovable FL. the second FL, though… can she shut up for two seconds?

my main issue with this show is why they dropped the hyunmin x hawon plot. it was going well and it would’ve been a lovely way to go, but they gave her to jiwoon?

it feels like the screenwriters were taking it one way then decided to backtrack and make the series go a COMPLETELY different direction.

I watched this expecting some things not to make sense, just wanting a light-hearted silly rom-com with a happy ending. And I got what I came for, so I can't complain.
I like the story itself, it's a nice re-version of Cinderella, although ther were a few things I couldn't really stand, and by a few things, I mean Hawon's father. The man won shittiest father of the year, even to the grandfather of the Kang cousins. I was also surprised when I noticed her stepmother actually loved him, like, why wase she so mean to the daughter of the man she genuinely loved? I was expecting makjang, but that storyline doesn't make sense in any world.
The romance was cute, I wasn't much into the main couple at first, but honestly they won me over being cute after they get together. I wasn't very fond of the second couple tbh.
I didn't care about the acting, as I was expecting it to be a bit over-the-top and silly, but I have to say I couldn't stand Son Naeun's performance, her character was a bit annoying at times (and likeable at others), but I always felt like punching her when she spoke (I like her as an idol though!!). Ahn Jaehyun's facial expressions were terrible, but he made me laugh a lot with them and I'm not sure it was on purpose, as it's my first time watching him and I've read good comments about him, so I'll let it slide lol. Park Sodam was lovely, she fit perfectly into this silly world while still feeling like an actual person. And I also enjoyed Lee Jungshin a lot, I only realized he was from CNBlue after he made the joke lol.
The OST was meh, honestly. I love BTOB, but this song kinda wasn't it for me. Jessi's song kinda got me on my nerves whenever it started playing, I'm not sure why.

Overall, I enjoyed this a lot. The pace of the story was pretty good, something that doesn't happen often on this kind of shows. As long as I didn't take it seriously, I laughed a lot. I feel like it's a good comfort show to re-watch when you need to get your mind off of things.

Cinderella didn't choose the best guy this time

I love all Cinderella movies and every possible version of it, so when this title appeared in the suggestions on my Netflix, I couldn't resist! It took me 5 days to see the whole thing and it was a beautiful week.

Female lead is independent and does not give a shit. It was very refreshing point of view on Cinderella. Also this type of female character seems to be quite rare in k-drama and Ha-Won stands out 😅💪 She is strong mentally and with her body 😍 I liked from the first moments of the drama and didn't lose it even when she was a bit annoying by the end of the drama. I found an comment calling her situation a "reversed harem" and that was so accurate!

Sweet chemistry between the leads was inevitable as they had many cute moments. But because the sentance that was the most often said between these two was not "I love you" but "fuck off" 😂💜 makes their love story funny. Seo-Woo is one of my most liked characters as he has his own life and is not unneccesarily mean to others but his carees is just thrown onto spectators and never explained how, what and why. I personally think that he would be a better partner for Cinderella.

Big minus - Cinderella is surounded with Four Knights only in a theory. She lives with 3 of them and fourth (?) is coming and going and we also know shit about him. The title completly doesn't corespod with that is actually going on in the drama.

Maybe drama has a few shortcomings but fortunately the drama is well put together so they are not bothersome. Personally, I liked the drama because it is a fresh look at the Cinderella story and I would rate the series 6/10 - it's not over the top but also not boring 👌😋 It has a good balance.

Till this day I have never even thought of searching for the soundtrack of a drama. Even though I loved many song in various productions, I had never downloaded it but "For You" from BTOB and "I Believe" of Younha had to be the exceptions. Those songs are so fantastic that I had to have them on my good-morning playlist.

Already rewatched

Really liked this drama, absolutely one of my favorites! It was a fun watch with just enough cute moments and drama that wasn’t too over the top. There was also enough episodes were the couple is actually together and acts like a real couple. I get frustrated with a lot of dramas where they have no contact relationships or just hand holding. Always enjoy seeing a couple act more realistic and like they actually like each other. Overall the story was predictable but it was really a great watch and I recommend!

Cheesy but still enjoyed it

First off, loved the OST. Sometimes i think the soundtrack saved the series from tanking. It's not a bad series. It's light. No complicated plots. Was a breezy watch. Just...really cheesy and too predictable. But hey, cheesiness doesn't kill a show. All it does is makes me respond "really?!?, really?? alright. Meh. Whatever" quite often. I would have like to see a bit more character development with the supporting casts, just to add a bit more depth to the story and plots. But it's meant to be a light watch so I took it as exactly so.

One of my all time favorites

10/10 is my rating. A 2016 South Korean television series with 16, 60 minute episodes. It is based on a novel that had the same title and the basic elements of the story draws some parallels with Boys Over Flowers (2009).

The "Cinderella" in this story is Eun Ha Won (Park So-dam) who is hard working and mature for her age. She lost her mother and her father remarried but is rarely home. She lives with her stepmother and step sisters who do not consider her family and are selfish with the limited resources the family has. Ha Won is working multiple part-time jobs to save up for college. Her mother, when alive, encouraged Ha Won to be a teacher and that is her life goal.
Circumstances lead her into the realm of three rich, spoiled, heirs to an empire and the Grandfather thinks she might be just the one to get the boys into shape. This is after he saw her "discipline" one of his grandsons who was not treating his elder or her with respect.The grandfather strikes a deal with her and gets her to move in with his handsome nephews as sort of an adult nanny. Before moving in, Ha Won already had encounters with lady's man and playboy Kang Hyun Min (Ahn Jae-hyun) and the "gangsterish" rebel Kang Ji Woon (Jung ll-Woo). Kang Seo Woo (Lee Jung-shin) is not immediately on Ha Won's radar but the grandfather does not think much of his music career. The fourth knight is the grandson's live in bodyguard Lee Yoon Sung (Choi Min). Park Hye Ji (Son Na-eun) is a childhood friend of Kang Hyun Min and Kang Ji Woon has designated himself as her protector. Hye Ji sees herself marrying into the Kang family and often uses one of the cousins to get the attention of another.

Spoiler 🚨 I was actually surprised with how much I loved this movie. Ha Won was everything I love in a lead female character she was feisty at times, sweet and nice to most, fun, positive. I really loved the way she slowly transformed the rich, spoiled heirs. I love bromances and developing relationships. I wasn't disappointed in any aspect of this movie - it was pretty much perfect to me.

Totally deserve watching!!

Highly recommended, Actually before starting this drama i didn't have much expectations from it but while watching 2-3 episodes i was like no this is something else l, it's something which i was finding for a long time. It's just like the dramas which are for so loved by the watchers like boys over flowers, Love O2O, Descendants of the sun. OST, music, acting, story, cast are just the perfectly put in this. Also, it's my first time writing this much long review to any drama and the reason is becoz i am far so impressed by it and i want more people to watch and becoz it's so underrated drama on MDL it's just got rating of 7.8 overall and on IMDb not quite good too so I'm expecting it to get atleast more than 8.5 star rating becoz it really deserves. Also, if it didn't i also won't be here writing this review becoz i know i never wrote for any. Lastly, very sorry if there's any grammatical mistakes you see i am very excited so i didn't care about those. I am just writing whatever i'm feeling like. So please go watch it, if you didn't by now, becoz really you're missing a masterpiece. Thankyou!!

Cinderella and Four Knights (2016) - I like most of the characters in the drama but the storyline is just really meh for me. It's too usual, there is nothing new that I felt bad for the characters and the actors playing them. All I could remember is how I used to complain about this drama.

The acting is great for me. Both leads especially have been good actors and I have seen them in other dramas so no complain to that. The title is misleading for me since there were no 4 knights that was what I was expecting.

The music is not memorable.

I would not rewatch. I would not recommend this to others as well.

I really enjoyed this drama and I've rewatched it twice. It's cute and I ship the main couple SO HARD.

The story was good. It's a mediocre concept, but they carried it out quite well. There's this one scene (I'm not gonna spoil) but all of the main characters are in it and it's funny asf.

The acting was good, not great. There were some highs and lows, but like I said... I LOVE THE MAIN COUPLE.

The music SLAPS. I'm a Jessi fan so My Romeo had me jamming in my blanket. I honestly looked up the OST on Spotify because I loved it so much.

As I said before, I've rewatched this twice so the rewatch value is a solid 10. I really love this drama.

Un reverse harem divertissant

L'histoire serait inspiré d'un manga/webtoon que ça ne m'etonnerait pas car l'intrigue fait vraiment reverse harem, c'est à dire une rencontre d'un lead (féminin) avec plusieurs leads masculins qui vont la faire reussir/grandir/ découvrir l'amour. Le genre harem étant ciblé pour des lycéens (ou adultes libidineux allez savoir), j'avais longtemps évité ce genre de titres. L'été aidant peut être, j'ai regardé cette série sans trop avoir d'attente.
J'ai été agréablement surprise par la qualité du jeu et des éléments comiques.
Cendrillon et ses chevaliers, tout était déjà annoncé dans le titre.
Une petite romance sans prétention avec une trame classique. Si on passe les défauts habituels : destins croisés, souvenirs d'enfance bisounours à gogo ) je trouve que celui-ci tient la route.
Les personnages sont attachants. Le prince bad boys est tout à fait crédible, les autres cousins Kang sont drôles aussi. Ils ne sont pas particulièrement "beaux" je trouve mais ils dégagent du charme par leur jeu d'acteur. Park So dam alias Cendrillon, petite miséreuse parmi les riches, porte tout le drama à elle seule, avec beaucoup de sincérité et je me prends à sourire à chacune de ses apparitions. Je suis séduite par son côté garçonne et fée clochette à la fois, elle n'en fait pas des tonnes. Elle est dans mon top 5 des Cendrillon revisitées !
Les moments comiques sont très réussis surtout dans les premiers épisodes. Marivaudages et quiproquos jouissifs, avex les réseaux sociaux qui amplifient le tout.
Cendrillon a t elle eu ce qu'elle voulait? Peut elle se libérer des considerations matérialistes pour vivre enfin sa vie? Pas vraiment...

"""
Ils vécurent tous heureux, grâce au PDG grand-père richissime à la fin de l'histoire. Bon le Cendrillon de Perrault a bien le prince et le palais et tout ce qui va avec... alors pourquoi pas.
"""
Tout serait resté dans la comédie et ce serait absolument parfait. Mais on a ajouté cette second lead féminin qui passe son temps à pleurer sur le cousin Kang play-boy et donc des scènes larmoyantes totalement inutiles et mal jouées. Aussi une tentative de prise de pourvoir de la boîte de Papy qui n'avait pas grand intérêt. Les romances tirent en longueur vers la fin et ne sont pas vraiment convaincants non plus.

Ce qui me gêne, ce sont les bonnes questions posées au début du drama (culte de l'apparence, caste très fermé des riches, rêve de carrière de l'héroïne...) qui n'ont pas été répondues à la fin de l'histoire. S'ils avaient supprimé quelques scènes de bisous, on aurait pu y insérer des éléments de réponses. Aussi, tant qu'on y est dans la carricature, pourquoi pas fermer le caquet aux chaebols méprisants pour conclure, créer quelques scandales et quiproqos dans les médias sociaux, comme au début de l'histoire... on est dans un drama pour jeunes, non?
Malgré cela, j'ai croqué à pleines dents dans ce " Il etait une fois" jubilatoire et savoureux. Ce drama vaut le coup d'oeil.
