calls ‘Grandpa’ though they are not related. While searching for a con artist
who had cheated him he bumps into a girl wearing a panda costume, making him
sure that she is his accomplice. The girl in the costume is Pan Da Yang (Yoon
Seung Ah) also called ‘Panda’ is the owner of the small cake shop called Café
Panda, but is on the verge of bankruptcy mainly due to her incompetent
patisserie. In the need she turns to her sister who works for the Saint-Honoré bakery franchise, so that she will
keep the café open, and keep the memory of her parents. When Da Yang puts up
posters of job recruitments for her café, Seung Ji spots it, and decides to go
and work there so he can get the money back, but also to stop being a nuisance
to Grandpa.
The two end up joining
forces to compete against the Saint-Honoré…
I have had this drama on
my computer for a very long time (over a year), and I have not been able to
watch it more than 10 min, mainly because I have a problem with most SM
Entertainments idol actors. No offence but they all overact and are all
basically pretty faces that got a role. That said, the star in this drama is Dong
Hae. I mean all the other actors are so not worth your time, and Seung Ah just
has one thing that fits in this drama… her face. She LOOKS like a panda, and
that is all that is worth mentioning here. Jin Hyuk tries to do something, but
I kind of get annoyed with his face, as if even when smiling I get confused -
but weirdly enough he has one gorgeous smile. Besides the cast not living up to
my expectations, I loved that Dong Hae exceeded them. I actually watched it to
the end because of him, and I liked the drama very much to be honest. Though it
really is easy to figure out, and you inevitably roll your eyes when they
announce the ‘twists’.
So is it worth your time?
Yeah, it is really good :)
