Mr Duke

The simple story isn't enough to sustain 16 episodes. The basic could have been covered in 2 or 3 episodes. A wealthy young woman who doesn't want to be match made hires a water delivery man to be her boyfriend to satisfy her father. Of course they fall for each other and he is exposed. Not a lot to that. Choi Ji Woo looks pretty and sweet here. So fans of hers may like to see her in an early series. Her leading man looks a bit old for her. Nothing special about this series.

The drama biggest problem is its both male leads. Both were incompatible, had zero chemistry and looked way older than their real age and compared to female lead. Regardless of anything else, the drama failed to nail the most basic elements of any romance. The romance itself was poor, awkward, emotionless and dull. Again, the lack of chemistry/connection isn't helping either. More or less, the comedy/entertainment value was equally problematic. This drama was a disastrous romcom from the very beginning and there was no saving it. Almost any other Choi Ji Woo drama from that era was better than this one.
