This shoujo Manwha sweeps up all the shoujo protagonist cliches and throws them out of the window. If you are getting tired of the meek likable naive main character and the dashing prince to the rescue story, this is the perfect medicine. In this story both the main characters have rather unique personalities. And you get the perpective of the boy as well as the girl.
The main character is in short made to be hated. You will hate her for most part of the story, but that is exactly what the author intends.
The main character is neither personality wise "lovely" nor especially cute compared ... to her peers, and this is the fun part, the manga isn't about her struggling, its about the guy struggling to get his feelings across to a rather brash and sometimes slow girl.
The art is good, and there is enough eye candy for you to enjoy the bishe side of it. there is plenty of comedy, and i would say that the story gets a high mark from me for originality. And believe me i have read A LOT of shoujos.
Another interesting part was how the author showed the reality of the "pretty boys", that they aren't perfect princes personality wise

This is the first time I'm writing a review so pardon me if my reviewing skills isn't great but after reading this manhwa, I felt like I need to say something out there...

Story: 5/10 Mediocre
The story did fairly well. I've read many other shoujos that got me much more interested. Yes, it's true that it's pretty unique as it seems to focus more on how the guy feels chasing the girl he loves all his life and it does make the heart feel for him however, there are times where I wish he would just move on to someone else he deserve much more! Hence, ... at times, the story can be a bit draggy and irritating(mainly because of the lead female character). I like how they didn't miss out anyone and at least touch on other smaller role characters story like the brother of the lead male character as well as introducing the father the lead female character. I do not like how the story ends without so much of trying to improve the lead female character personality. I wish the story continued on a little to show me that the girl isn't as irritating as she is.

Art: 8/10 Very Good
Art took some getting used to but that's just me being very picky. It does grow onto me after awhile and I end up liking to look at the illustrations of the characters especially the guys and Rosa. :) All in all, art work is satisfying enough to my eyes.

Character: 3/10 Poor
Ok... this section I don't really know how to judge as I really like the lead male character but I REALLLLLYYYY hate the lead female character and I guess that kinda overcome my liking for the other characters. Every other character in this manhwa is pretty good, even the irritating playboy turns out quite likable. However, the lead female character really pisses me off alot when i was reading it. I have never come across a lead character that I feel so irritated with. To the point that I don't even want the two lead characters to be in love with each other cos trust me!! he deserves sooooo much better. But that's just my own opinion. I just could not stand her and she never ever did anything to make up for all the crappy shit she does like randomly whacking the shit out of another girl in the park!! She never really develop in this story. Hence, I wish the artist had worked on her a bit more to show some gradual change in becoming a better person.

Enjoyment: 4/10 Decent
Same reasons as I stated above for why I gave a low rating. It's only saved by the nice art work! And well maybe Heerack(lead male character) as he's really adorable. Well everyone is alright but thanks to the main girl, it caused a huge drop in my favour to this manhwa. I do not really like it when I get irritated and frustrated with the main female character. (Like I said though, just my own personal opinion and bias-ness) I can't really say I enjoy it alot when most part of the story I'm irritated and frustrated and want things to move on so it would (in some hope) make me feel better.

Overall: 5/10 Mediocre
I'm sorry but the lead female character is by far one of the most irritating horrible personality character I've ever come across in a manhwa. At times she can be even considered evil!!! XS

Be prepared to meet some of the most UNLIKEABLE main characters ever. This takes all cliches and eliminates them, the boy is head over heels for the girl and she basically uses and abuses him. She is so unlikeable, but as you press on she actually develops more as a character, making her MUCH better than before. The drama and love triangles and such were all absurd but still remained amusing. I hate how they ruined some interesting plot points with random absurdities, however. It could never pick if it wanted to be funny or serious and it definitely broke a lot of scenes. But ... there isn't much to expect from a 24 chapter series like this, obviously development would have kinks here and there. Overall though, it was pretty okay.I enjoyed it enough, but I'd likely forget about it if I didn't own it.
