Perfect Couple

Although it's cheesy and over the top in many ways, I ended up enjoying it. I laughed, but didn't particularly feel their pain because I couldn't exactly relate to the situations. On the other hand, the romantic scenes and the comedic ones kept me very entertained. The politicking was the same as in other historical series, even the villain was kind of slightly stereotypical, but it drove beautifully towards the climax. It wasn't bad, some of the standard plots were handled more elegantly here than they are elsewhere. I liked how the women were beautifully adorned and I was mesmerized by the outfits regardless of gender. Another plus for me was the excellent music; yes, it was repetitive, but it fit every scene. Sometimes I thought it was a little silly how the camera approached from a certain angle in that long arc before "zooming in" on something. All in all, it's slightly above average. Definitely entertains like 45 bedtime cartoons. (2014.09.19)
