Reasons to watch: Our everywoman heroine (Pyo Ye-jin) might be dreaming of a freaking fairy tale with a token pompous chaebol (Lee Jun-young), but I’m dreaming of a freaking K-drama that can take our tried and true tropes and do something clever with them. Is this the drama that will do it? The promos (and posters especially) have been so extra it gives one hope that there will be an appropriate amount of satire here. And with a dud drama drama behind each of our leads (Moon in the Day and The Impossible Heir respectively), these two could definitely use a drama that reaches cult favorite heights. Goodness knows they’re both good for it, if they meet the proper script!

TL;DR: Pyo Ye-jin is dreaming of freaking fairy tale with Lee Jun-young
