It’s been 14 years since the release of Coffee Prince, yet we can’t deny that it is still one of the most successful Kdramas out there that became a part of the Hallyu wave. The series revolves around a brilliant, wealthy man who runs a coffee shop and a woman pretending to be a man to work at the cafe. Eventually, the two sparked romantic feelings even though Gong Yoo’s character did not know that Yoo Eun Hye was a woman in the first place. What sets this Kdrama apart is how the director and writer bravely discussed the existing gender norms in the romantic relationship aspect. Coffee Prince will give you heart-fluttering moments and valuable learning experiences about the harsh reality of our society.
