My Comment :

Cerita : Korea lagi demen sama cerita fantasi yg serba tak mungkin.  Raja jaman Chosun lah yg terdampar ke masa sekarang.  Asli komedi banget nih film.  Dari awal sampai akhir, tiap episode ada aja adegan yg lucu-lucu karena perbedaan gaya hidup.  Sampai tertawa terpingkal-pingkal deh melihat kelakuan 4 cowo itu.  Apalagi saat rambut mereka masih gondrong dan pakai training warna-warni .... buset deh culun amat.  Tapi setelah rambut dipotong dan dikasih baju baru, nah mereka berempat langsung jadi keren bok! Drama ini very entertaining, walaupun tidak masuk akal ada tokoh saudari tiri yg jahat serta cari-mencari anak kandung, tipikal Korean Drama era awal thn 2000-an.





Casting : Micky Yoochun memang layak dapat bintang untuk akting ngelawak kayak gini :)  Sebetulnya saya enggak begitu suka sama Han Ji Min yg aktingnya suka lebay di film2 sebelum ini.  Soalnya dia suka melotot2 dan mulutnya suka monyong2.  Sekilas gayanya mirip Kim Jung Eun di Lover in Paris dan Princess Lulu.



Ending : Happy ... kalau mau spoiler, highlight text di bawah ini dg cursor
Park Ha bertemu dengan Ibu Kandungnya.  Sena dan Taemo yg jahat tersingkap kejahatannya dan mendapat hukumannya.  Lee Gak dan 3 orang rekannya pulang ke masa Chosun dan berhasil mengungkap kematian dan konspirasi kejahatan permaisuri.  Tae Yong sadar dari koma dan bertemu kembali dengan Park Ha, jatuh cinta dan pacaran dengan Park Ha yg sukses dengan bisnisnya.  Semua happy.

Rating : 8/10
