Ma-i On-li Leo-beu-song

This movie absolutely has no logic. But somehow wrapped up pretty much okay. It also doesn't have too much complexity and its hilarious. The chemistry between two leads are lovey dovey beyond believe. It's clingy too, rather in a good way. Oh ya, please put your brain in the freeze before watching this, you won't need that one while watching. Ah, and the actor didn't hold it even a bit while ...., how should I put it in good words, showing his love towards the actress. So it has pretty steamy kissing scene!

Our story begins telling the 'greatest love story' of Princess Pyeonggang and OnDal. We then cut to modern day, on a film set, creating a new take on the old love story. Soo-Jung is starring as the princess, however when something is changed in the script and she doesn't know about it, she throws a huge tantrum. And so we are introduced to our main character; a stubborn and easily provoked actress, known as Korea's 'top star'. Due to certain events she drives off in her car and is magically transported back to the past into the time of the Princess and OnDal, and must figure out how to return to the present whilst trying to deal with love and war.

The best thing about My Only Love Song was definitely the characters. Soo-Jung, OnDal, Sam-Yong, and Il-Yong were all hilarious. A few of the characters I found annoying were the princess and the two guys who fawned over Il-Yong but overall the characters were great. The flashbacks in the final episode really showed how much the characters had changed over the course of the series, especially Soo-Jung, which was enjoyable to see. Soo-Jung (Seung-Yeon Kong) was the sassy main character, and although she's a terrible person, in the first few episodes at least, you just can't help but love her, especially when you start to peel away her tough exterior. Sam-Yong is the small innocent character that just needs to be protected and he' so cute. OnDal seems cocky and sure of himself, but he's actually very lonely and needs support. Il-Yong, the antagonist, is ridiculously in love with himself and a bit of a wimp but he's still twisted and sadistic.

The plot I thought was fairly original, as I personally haven't seen any time-travel K- Dramas myself. A few plot twists occurred throughout the series, although not all of them made sense and were not really explained. The best by far though was near the end when we discover the truth about the OnDal in the story and everything clicks into place! It also keeps you guessing which character will end up with who, and there is plenty of laughs and tears to be had along the way. The scene with the flowers and 'apologising in advance' is by far the cutest and will rip your heart out with feels. Because I'm a nerd and did some research about the original story about the princess and OnDal afterwards and I love that they kept so many details the same, for example, OnDal was known as 'the idiot' or 'the fool', so the show subtly referenced this by having Soo-Jung call him 'dumb OnDai' lots, which I thought was cool.

Other things: I was surprised by the special effects as they were very inconsistent. One minute they were really great and looked amazing and the next I was crying with laughter at how shockingly bad they were. The music was average, it didn't particularly stand out for me. I really like the whole design of both costumes and setting, I don't know how accurate they were but they were very aesthetically pleasing, especially the natural locations such as the huge river with the rocks.

Overall, My Only Love Song is a fun and dramatic K-Drama, the only real downside being a few plot inconsistencies. If you're a K-Drama fan it's definitely worth watching but if you're new to K-Drama then you might find it a bit weird and want something a little more normal to ease you in to the genre.

Overall a sweet rom com but spoilt by a continual stream of flashbacks, it's almost like they only had a couple of episodes of story but decided to pad it out to 20 episodes. Not one of the best k rom coms but ok for a wet Sunday afternoon.

My Only Love Song is a funny, heartwarming series. I laughed and I cried as I watched this drama. I loved the lead couple and the chemistry between them was convincing. I too watched it from beginning to end, without pausing. If you want to watch a Korean drama that has heart, this show is the one for you. Kudos to all associated with this drama.

Not my cup of tea. I just kept watching cause I wanted to know the ending. And luckily I was pleased with it.

The love story of On Dal and Song Soo-Jung was beautiful. They shared some intense kisses, loved it. Also the love between the princess and her bodyguard was very touching. So these four characters kept me watching.

I could appreciate the time travelling story.

For a Korean series it was cheeky and bold.

But I didn't enjoy the rest of the storyline. The general and even all the other 'government characters' were just annoying. For me those characters ruined the series and especially the beautiful love story.
