1. Funny in all the right places

When a show can make you laugh, it automatically rises to the top. The King's Affection has a light sense of humor that doesn't try too hard, but yet hits the mark every single time. 

2. Love is love

The best part of any K-drama with a push and pull, the confusing dynamics between the leads will leave viewers constantly in suspense, just waiting for the when of it all.
