    Delightful and Super Sweet Love Story

    I absolutely loved this show! Were there some bits of the story that were far-fetched? Yes, however, these things definitely did not make or break the story for me. At it's heart this is a show about love, kindness, and being selfless. This is a very heartwarming show that made me smile and believe in love.

    That being said there were some flaws: as I mentioned above there were a few plot points that definitely felt far-fetched. There were also some unlikable characters. But there were a ton of wonderful characters that outweighed the bad ones. Louis and Bok Sil's love story is one of the sweetest I have ever seen in a Kdrama, and I loved the softness of Louis' character. This is well worth a watch if you are looking for something sweet, not too heavy, and happy.

    A funny and relief kdrama

    I feel frustrated these days, so i need a funny and simple drama to watch.. i need that kind of warmth and also not a cringe one, i found that in shopping king louis.

    I thought i wouldn't complete the show after the half of the first episode, but the acting of the main lead the actor was great and very smooth and fun.

    The second lead actor, i liked him since the drama " the secret garden", he did also a great job here. The actress also, the friend, the family, the coworkers.. everyone is acting very well.

    The osts are amazing, the clothes, the story lines.

    BUT.. the last 4 episodes were so dragging, i liked them though, but it was obvious they needed 16 episodes by all the means.

    Thank you for the happy times i spend with this drama, thank you korea.

    (Note) the actress hair colour kept changing in different scenes.

    EDIT i have just seen the last episode now.. i cried a lot, this is how i react with happy endings. Thank you all for your great efforts.

    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.

    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.
