It was lighthearted, simple, cute and soft. I'm okay with the ending, but I wish they showed us a little bit more. #kdrama #meowthesecretboy #kimmyungsoo #shinyeeun

• This series is simply an average show — not too bad but not exceptionally good either.
• I like the cute romance between our secondary couple Ji Eun and Do Shik.
• The OST was cute, it suited the atmosphere of the show well. My favorite : Better To Be You by Drew Ryan Scott.
• Kim Myung Soo did a nice job at portraying Hong Jo and I think he suited this role very well. Hong Jo is the cutest and L is perfect for this role!
• It is still worth the watch, it’s an enjoyable ride with some funny moments and some cute romance in it.

My Rating – 8/10
