FATE, FORGIVENESS & FAMILY…

Ended up watching this a second time, first on Viki and then came across it on Netflix recently. It definitely made my Fave List since I loved everything about it. The FL’s fangirling was funny enough the entire show but each character had their own moments of humor I also enjoyed. Lots of familiar faces like Kim Sun Young (Cindy’s mom was ridiculously funny) did a great job playing that character, Park Jin Joo (the bestie) she’s always cute in anything she plays and of course, you can’t miss the big guy Ahn Bo Hyun, just love him! Great casting!

Like most dramas, the main characters are usually “fated” from the beginning, right? Guess it usually works for good storytelling. Then comes the amount of “forgiveness & acceptance” from that fated past which I found to be a very big deal with the ML’s character (you’ll see it for yourself when you watch it, have the tissues ready). In the end, it reminded me of how important family is and really, it’s not always about lineage. I think most of us have loved ones we call “family” but are not necessarily blood related.

Yes, sometimes a show can have those “extra fillers or drag” that might bore us but overall, I liked this one. The setting of the museum, art and paintings tied in very well with the storyline. When the soundtrack music is pleasant and catchy, you’ll end up singing along with it every episode. The mature relationship of the ML and FL was quite tender, they had so many loving (and sexy) moments it would make my heart flutter. If you enjoy a good RomCom, this is worth watching… enjoy!
