    One of the Must watch k dramas

    The story revolves around Louis who although is the only to heir to one of the biggest korean company GoldLine. But has only his grandmother as family. So he seeks interest in buying and collecting and is a passionate about shopping. Seo In Guk's performance is above ordinary and he portrayed the character so well. The plot moves at a beautiful pace and leave you craving for more. Comic elements fit perfectly and Romance is a bonus. A Highly recommend Must Watch Korean Drama Series.

    A sweet story

    I wasn't too sure about this show at first as it started slowly, kept on being slow and a little frustrating at times, but it turned out into a very heartwarming story that's worth watching until the end. It was helped a LOT by the *extremely* hot policeman (why is that never true in real life?) and some funny moments, but was let down by too many disgusting eating scenes (seriously, wipe your mouth and don't talk with your face bulging with food). Also i don't get why the boss guy was so rude ALL THE TIME. It's a good lesson on NOT overprotecting and overspoiling a child, but in the end the story was perfect and it all came together well. Give it a shot and don't give up :)

    A simple yet beautiful romantic comedy about a shopaholic rich guy who suddenly becomes poor after losing his memory.

    Honestly, I didn't want to watch this show. I watched it because I was bored. I didn't expect anything good but this show surprised me. It was a beautiful yet simple love story. What makes this show special is that the main lead is not an arrogant, emotionless boss. He cries when he wants to, he laughs when he wants to and says the perfect things when he wants to. He opens up his heart in the show. The main lead was the best part of the show & the actress wasn't bad either. She complimented the male lead. Another thing was that the unique concept of shopaholic added humor and made this show worthwhile. What is different about this from the rest of the rom-com is that they both go through difficult times and it's the female lead that pulls up the hero & the hero isn't a jerk. Of course, it had its flaws. Towards the end, they forget that the title was about the shopaholic man & doesn't much talk about it. It becomes very much predictable. Yet I can say I didn't want it to end. So if you want to watch a simple yet good romcom that is diffrent from the rest. This show is the one to go for.I loved it. Louis was a memorable character & so was mr cha.

    Shopping king Louie review

    I loved this show. It was great. It was never boring not even for a second. The story was funny and made me happy, sad, mad in a good way. They did a great job on this story. The acting was great. All the actors and actress did a great job in this show. The makeup, hair and outfits were on point the whole time. The setting was super pretty. I could tell that the director of this show put his whole heart into it. The script was written super well. Everything that happens in the story makes since. The translation was done super well too. The romance in the story was super good. There was enough drama to keep the story entertaining the whole time. There was good character development and the plot was good too. I loved that Louie had lost his memory and when he found out who he was again he still loved the girl that had helped him the whole time he didn't know he was rich.i loved that before he lost his memory he loved shopping and when he lost his memory he still loved to shop. I liked that detail. Louie and the main girl in the story have such good chemistry together their romance is the best. I recommend this show to everyone.

    This Korean romantic comedy series is "just my style"

    Because of his grandmother's superstitious belief that those closest to her come to harm, Louie has been raised far away from Korea in a beautiful palace in France with servants who cater to his every whim and a bank balance large enough for him to buy any thing that strikes his fancy. His lifestyle suffers a significant reverse when a trip to Korea finds him penniless and with no memory of who he is. He is rescued by a young woman who harvests ginseng for a living and has come to Seoul to find her brother. Their attempt to live and support one another is hampered by her naivete' and Louie's reflexive need to shop.

    I started watching this series and enjoyed it a great deal, much of which is because Louie is such a fun and funny character. He's essentially a 25 year old puppy dog who pouts when his demands aren't met, rueful when he causes trouble, easily winded when he runs too fast but so goofily warm-hearted that you can't blame Go Bok Sil for taking him in, feeding him and quickly forgiving him when he overspends their limited funds.

    But the second male lead is equally hilarious. Cha-Joong Wan is Go Bok Sil's grumpy boss who falls in love with the oblivious Go Bok Sil. He yells, scolds and complains while doing some of the nicest things for her and even for his rival, Louie. I have to say that every time he grunted in frustration (which was frequent) I had to laugh. But honestly, nearly EVERYONE is funny is this series: Louie's grandmother's right-hand woman who is conversant with the virtues of carrying a baseball bat; Go Bok Sil's volatile neighbor lady and her layabout son; Cha-Joong Wan's interfering parents (particularly his mother). The main villain's beautiful daughter, who you'd think you'd hate because of her attempts to undermine Go Bok Sil, ends up being comically inept. Equally memorable is her kindly spacy mother who keeps unconsciously upending her villainous husband's machinations.

    I kept waiting for the series to lose itself in overwrought dramatics and humorless plot twists. Yeah, it gets a little lost narratively speaking towards the end and some of the events that occur are obviously filler to get the series to the requisite 16 episodes. But as a whole, the series is cute, funny and heartwarming.
