Mr. Duke (2000)

Sometimes old school dramas are just the best! One of my very first, decided to watch again, and lo and behold still is. Anyone interested in just a good romantic drama with a twist. This one is not your typical rich guy, poor girl. It's a reversal, rich girl, poor guy.

cast- just amazing, Kim Seung Woo plays the poor male lead, he is what made this drama so believable and his acting is incredible in this one. You feel his desire, emotions its written all over his face. the female lead Choi Ji Woo is somewhat more subdued but you still root for them. The rest of the cast was just superb. I like how they had a little bromance going on and the character developments throughout the drama, you really end up loving every character, What I also like is how the realism of the poor guy's day to day life and people in his shoes was portrayed. It's REALITY.

Music- definitely one of my favorite osts....even tried to find one particular song. not even in print and cannot find it on you tube. :(

overall just a fun, escape kinda fairytale, but in fact very realistic, believable especially the beginnings of falling in love with someone, just an enjoyable, feel good all around drama.

Disappointing

The drama biggest problem is its both male leads. Both were incompatible, had zero chemistry and looked way older than their real age and compared to female lead. Regardless of anything else, the drama failed to nail the most basic elements of any romance. The romance itself was poor, awkward, emotionless and dull. Again, the lack of chemistry/connection isn't helping either. More or less, the comedy/entertainment value was equally problematic. This drama was a disastrous romcom from the very beginning and there was no saving it. Almost any other Choi Ji Woo drama from that era was better than this one.
