Princess Hours Korean Drama

Princess Hours was a very popular drama in 2006 and gain lots of great reviews and i agree that this drama is one of the best korean drama you will ever know once you've watched it. The theme song until now, 2011, is still stuck inside my head. If you check the drama out, you're bound to love the female lead for her quirkiness.

  

 


                        

A perfect boy, Lee Shin, from the noble bloodline, with good looks and great sense of unpolished beauty is betrothed at the age of 17 to a girl from an ordinary family, Chae-kyeong. Lee Shin is an insensitive, smug guy who holds a torch for a ballerina he knows for quite a while, Min Hyo-rin. Before he was betrothed to Cha-Kyeong, he had proposed to Hyo-rin but was rejected because she wanted to concentrate on her future as a ballerina.Therefore, Lee Shin decides to go along with the arranged marriage.

Cha-Kyeong is a clumsy girl with average grades and average looks (don't think so) who oversteps the prejudice and barriers surrounding her. She is a very creative, lovable and outgoing girl but is quite naive. Though she seems immature and irritating, she is kindhearted and honest. Chae-kyeong marries the prince because of the promise made between her grandfather and Shin's. She initially finds Lee Shin irritating but  falls in love with him in the earlier part of the show. Lee Shin, not knowing that, feels the same way. Lee Yul is Lee Shin's cousin who was initially supposed to be the crown prince instead of Lee Shin. Lee Yul's mum is taking revenge for him. He falls in love with Cha-Kyeong but she only treats him as a friend and cousin-in-law. Meanwhile, Hyo-rin starts to regret rejecting Lee Shin's proposal as she can't stand him with another girl, thus tries to get him back.

The whole process unfolds with excitement...

This drama is really very fun to watch and you can watch it repeatedly without ever getting bored. The song's very catchy and the romance bwtween the couple sooo heartwarming. Lots of humour too for those who's looking for that. There are many heartwrenching scenes as well but do not worry, the lead guy or girl is not going to die of heart failure or anything. Moving on, the story plot is great, no loop holes, if there are, i did not notice :) Overall, this drama really deserved being one of the best and popular dramas in 2006.
