Drama Review: My Princess [2011]

My Princess

     My Princess is a truly amazing drama that was aired in 2011. It stars Kim Tae Hee as Lee Seol and Song Seung Hun as Park Hae Young. Basically, My Princess is about a society where the largest share holder of Korea, who basically has connects to everyone and everything, if something happens so them everything can pretty much go wrong. Thus, the chairman of the company, was even lived during the time of the Monarchy and has worked closely with the royal family. The last monarch had died a while ago, and since the chairman has worked for him also made a promise to always protect the royal family, and one day bring back the royal monarch. Now, one thing that is haunting everyone is why the chairman is so approved to get back the monarch, since he is willing to even give up all his money to charity once the monarch is restored. All his money includes what his grandson owns too. 
     The Chairman's grandson is Park Hae Young, a diplomat, and of course being a diplomat would mean he is even more opposed of bringing back the monarch, aside from having his inheritance given away if the monarch is approved by the people. However, an obstacle in his way just happens to be the one who has to be in throne - The Princess Lee Seol. Lee Seol was adopted since she was 5 and she remembers nothing before then, all she remembers that were were bad things from the age of 5 and below. But when she coincidentally meets Park Hae Young because she wanted to get closer to her professor who she likes, she bumps into Hae Young often, both not knowing she is the princess herself. When Hae Young was set to find the princess it just turned out to be her, he would have never known it was her since when she first met him she didn't even tell her real name! But anyways, not that pretty much all of Korea knows she is the Princess, she has to be trained to become a princess, and guess who her teacher is...if you guessed Hae Young you totally right! Now Hae Young and Lee Seol will have to overcome all these obstacles in their way so that Lee Seol can become princess, however, Hae Young is a diplomat, yet he is helping the princess to actually become Princess? Well, it seems as if love and work will intertwine with each other, since Hae Young is a diplomat, and she shouldnt want the Monarch to be approved, and moreover he is the grandson of the biggest chairman of Korea, which people do now want to know that the company is accompanied with the Monarch, because that would just be bad (im not really sure why, its just it is bad). 
     So, will Hae Young's love for Lee Seol and vis-verse be able to come true as if it were a fairy tale, or will one thing have to be sacrificed for another? You will have to watch to find out!!


Thoughts and Reviews 

     Overall, I thought My Princess was an extremely amazing drama. I am disappointed about not hearing about it sooner, i literally just watched it a few weeks ago. Im surprised it is not that famous or popular as dramas such as Goong or Boys Over Flowers. Especially since there are two really great actors, (*ehem especially since we see Song Seung Hun and his amazing body*). But anyways, the chemistry between the two actors was just great! I honestly wish these two can become a real couple...but sadly Kim Tae Hee is currently dating Rain :( BUT Song Seung Hun says Kim Tae Hee is one of his idel types :D So there is still some hope! Anyways back to the drama, i have to say the plot was good, it didnt seem like there were many filler episodes that made it drag, and it didnt seem too short either. What i really loved was how the ending was just perfect, in other words, alot of dramas usually end when the two main characters are able to meet up and then they kiss and then is over, but not with My Princess, they went beyond and showed the happy parts between the two characters, the stuff that all the viewers want to see! ^_^ Overall, i really loved this drama and i would typically give it a 9/10.

So i suggest you watch My Princess if you have the time! Also, dont forget to comment or +1 below! :)
