Morphology
The meaning 'a very enjoyable experience' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'so' + 'much' as degree intensifiers with 'fun'; a learner who knows the constituent words can compositionally infer the overall sense. This stacking of degree words before a noun is a common, regular grammatical pattern in English (and in many other languages), so a B1 learner would readily understand the expression.
Etymology
So much fun uses a simple image: imagine filling a jar with happy moments until it overflows, with so + much showing a large amount of fun. That's why it means 'very enjoyable'.
