This is one of those dramas where you're really torn between the two rivals for the girl. Ask me now and I might say I'll vote for the curly-haired CEO son. Ask me in an hour and I won't guarantee I don't prefer the long-haired musician who is the grandson of the ex president of Korea. And the drama milks it for all it's worth, only letting you know who wins in the last minute.

PING to one of my favorite PP&M songs for a great fandom

[Buttons12]

Don’t Think Twice. My folks have numerous versions of this song. They’re all great!

[Hildy]

Don’t think twice it’s alright was written by Bob Dylan.

Song by Bob Dylan. I have the Joan Baez version in my iTunes library. I despise her politics, but I love her rendition of the song.

Ran across this while browsing subtitled Oriental series on Youtube:

This was apparently a Hong Kong production about the founding emperor of the Han regime, with the emperor character (basically a jumped-up peasant made good) played for laughs. If English language Wikipedia is remotely accurate, however, the story does hew fairly closely to historical accounts. The resolution isn’t great, but the writing, IMO, is fairly fast-paced, at least in the episode or so I’ve watched. Subtitles are adequate in the sense of being comprehensible.

There’s a lot of Second Lead Syndrome in Asian dramas, as well as childhood trauma, high fevers and white vehicles running into people.
