This is a romantic comedy, but don't let that scare you. I hate romantic comedies but I love Kim Sam Soon. I have shown this series to several people of different ages, backgrounds and interests, many of whom hate romantic comedies, but I have yet to find a person who doesn't love it.
It is very low budget and the soundtrack appears to be compiled of really bad midi files, but those are the only drawbacks. The cast couldn't be more talented, the dialogue couldn't be more amusing, and the plot couldn't be more gripping. The characters have so much personality, each one being loopy in their own unique way and clash with each other in the most hilarious and original situations.
This gets compared to Bridget Jones Diary quite a bit, which I can understand to some extent but doesn't really do the show justice. It has in common with Bridget Jones Diary an adorably neurotic heroine who obsesses over her weight and constantly gets herself into humiliating situations, but I think it is much more clever, much more funny and reaches a much broader audience than Bridget Jones Diary.
Just see it. You'll love it. Everybody does.
