Un amor predestinado

Beginning was good, but series lacks to show that people learn from their mistakes. It potrayed the female character as the dumbest person who gets into problem as she does same mistake again and again. Going to meet the psycho devil alone is not what a smart person or a brave person. Same way she opened the door in the previous episode which portrayed how dumb she is who didn't think before doing so.

Story is good but somehow it portrayed the main character as the most dumb person.

Actors are good acting is good.

Even the dumbest person would not open door when they are already aware of the issues.

It doesn't show her brave or strong character. It's dumb.

It starts well, giving you the impression of a comedy, with the cast and a few scenes, but... that's about it. Bo Ah plays very well, as do the actors in the secondary roles, the classic scenes of the Korean romcom. That's what saves a ridiculous scenario a little, if it weren't annoyingly weak. Kim Ro Woon has a poorly written role, the garish make-up and exaggerated gestures accentuate the contrast with the rest of the characters, showing how weak the direction is. The story can be summed up as a mixture of the theme of reincarnation with that of the working girl and "the cold rich man, the bad, scheming and rich girlfriend" heavily injected with excessive alcohol consumption. Hope died and I stopped at the terrible episode 10.

There are some issues as others point out more eloquently with the filming and the plot/continuity being a bit all over the place, but at the same time the drama is really enjoyable and has lots of nice scenes, be it funny, romantic or just beautiful. The interaction between the leads is good, it's like they have they own funny (bickering) language, and also FL is a great ar counteracting the ML in a way that it is clear that she cares for him but not is also not a pushover, makes him go through a character development. By contrast it can then seem that the FL is not going through as much character development but I think she is getting more mature in love too.

Critically speaking the series deserve 5/10. The flow of story is pretty random, story itself was weak. I liked the costume design though.

But the reason I gave it 9/10 is simply because this series was not meant for critical assessment. The whole intention was to make the audience take the back seat, turn off cynicism and just enjoy. I would say it was successful in making me feel what it intended to- Romantic!

The chemistry between Hung-Jo and Sinyu was critically lame, yet non-critically adorable, funny and cute. Actor Rowoon and Bo-ah were perfect together. Specially Rowoon showed his acting prowess. He gives brilliant yet subtle facial expressions. I watched him on "she would never know" and "the king's affection" and I hope he thinks about acting in movies, and on more serious script. He displayed a lot of potential, and can be something really big and global. Bo-ah is the the cutest, I felt like squeezing her cheeks, haha. Hope to see this pair again.

Jo Bo Ah and Rowoon have an insane chemistry, they nailed it.

The cinematography and performances are great.

Another key point is the songs, you can't stop listening to them. They make the scenes unforgettable.

The story is simple but hooks you in.

I loved it from beginning to end. In my case it never bored me.

I recommend it especially if you love romance. There are very beautiful scenes between the main characters.

I liked that the drama had a combination of several genres, because I love that you can experience various emotions.

It will make you cry, laugh and scream.

I'm gonna miss this drama.
