You Are My Destiny

The leading actor has a weirdo laugh! A little scary! But there is a reason for that weird laugh! Throughput the drama, there is a reason to his hairstyle, to give different expression! He portrays it very well!

The leading actress is a true doormat! Though not that pretty but sweet, warm, honest & cute at times! But when she has make-up on, nice attire & without the ugly glasses, she turns out pretty. Both of them have a wonderful chemistry! They are comfortable with each other & not stiff! So beautiful together!

The supporting actor is so handsome! So thoughtful & kind!

Fantastic cast! Cool grandmother, tough mom, funny assistant & wonderfu lhalf brother!

Another drama full of obstacles, disappointment, betrayal & love!

One can never forget your first love.

Worth watching! Really swoonworthy! It may not seems like it in the beginning but it will. Be prepared to have your tissues nearby & laugh!

I recommend! Will binge watch again!

A romantic comedy full of heartrending drama. A story hinting at predestined love. A young woman wins a trip and invites a young man from work she has a crush on. Meanwhile a man is planning a grand proposal for his work obsessed longtime girlfriend.

If my review was only on the acting this would have a much higher score, unfortunately there were several scenes where even I had a difficult time suspending my belief. I also felt that if they had taken the time on a couple of the subplot lines it would have felt less frustrated with the plot holes.

Over all I enjoyed the major story arch, two people who under normal circumstance would never have met are brought together by fate.

Initially, I was put off by Lee Gun's manic personality as played by Jang Hyuk. However, as the story developed and reasons for some of his behavior were revealed, I was amazed at how right his acting choices were. Steadily as the serial became more drama and less romcom, I fell in love with his character.

Kim Mi-young played by Jang Na-ra, started out as a very nice door mat. While her character did not go through major changes in my opinion, her ability to show and evoke various emotions as the character goes through difficulty after difficulty was good.

Unfortunately, the writers did not give all the characters as much room to evolve beyond the caricature they started as. Choi Jin-Hyuk as Daniel, was beautiful to watch, but they did not allow the character to develop beyond the unrequited love guy. He was too nice and patient with everyone and everything.

Yet while I some times became frustrated with some of the choices the characters made, over all I enjoyed the story telling.

I would also like to mention I loved Song Wok-suk as Kim Mi-young's mother and her story line. I loved how she was able to be that mother that scolded her daughter one minute and then grabbed and protected her from anyone else that would dare insult her daughter.

If you are able to suspend your belief on a couple of really impossible scenes, I recommend watching this heartwarming and at times tear flowing love story.

Jang Hyuk is one of my favourite Korean Actors, he can act silly, funny and serious at the same time. Should watch this tv series that full of funny action and at the same time sad love story. Jang Nara is also adorable and they both have great chemistry together

Should watch this series, i still loves it after 6 years

If your first impression of the male lead is that he's too extreme and dramatic, please please stick with it. What I found really interesting was that his environment clearly responds to all the strange behavior he exhibits, but gradually come to accept it once they get to know his character, often in unison with the watcher. It shows the male lead is athletically skilled as his clumsy dives and tumbles are masterfully controlled. The acting is downright phenomenal. Downside: the intimate scenes weren't amazing. All in all I definitely recommend this one.

Fated to love you was the first kdrama i watched and only because i saw somewhere the scene in the rain where Gun tells Sa-ra he married another woman. Jang Hyuk is phenomenal, but watching his other performances, i am not really surprised. This guy can act! Yes, as Gun he is a little over the top, and maybe there are times when you will cringe, but weirdly enough, you will get used to it! Worth mentioning is all the hairstyles he goes through the episodes! Nevertheless, he still looks million dollars ;) Jang Nara is beautiful. So innocent and pure. They both did an amazing job. Now to the plot. I must say it left me with mixed feelings. Especially because of Sa-ra. I felt terribly sorry for her. She was a victim to a big misunderstanding where she was suddenly left with a broken heart. In the 'original' taiwanese' version of fated to love you (with ethan juan), the feelings between Ji Cun Xi and Anna were much stronger, his emotional struggle between his feelings for Anna and moral obligations toward Xin Ji was much more apparent. In the korean version, Sa-ra's feelings were neglected and i felt sad for her. Of course, they gave her long lost brother at the end, but that's a different kind of love and for me it did not compensate the heartache. Overall i enjoyed the show very much, i laughed, i cried, i cringed, i hoped.. it was a rollercoaster of feelings and emotions and all actors did an amazing job to make me feel that way!
