Head over Heels (2025)

Cute and Hilarious

I never expected to laugh so much. Head Over Heels was truly a joy to watch! I was entertained from start to ep 11. Ep 12 was all right so I took off half a point. But the last scene (extra credit) was also fun.

I also had serious second lead syndrome. He was truly such a caring friend. The trio were a blast together! And one of the funniest episode of the drama was the two boys together.

Normally I wouldn't rate a school romance so highly. The characters really were wonderful. I was a bit mislead into thinking the plot will go down the horror route or suddenly become sad but fortunately, it kept it's light nature.

The OST is nice too. Need to look up the song. And the opening theme is quite beautiful.

I definitely recommend this one especially if you need to uplift your mood!

“Head Over Heels” is THAT drama that grabs you from ep 1 and never lets you go 😭

Just finished watching Head Over Heels — and honestly, what a ride.
This drama is a rare gem that blends gripping mystery, place intrigue, bittersweet romance, and surprisingly deep psychological storytelling. At first, I wasn’t sure where the story was heading. The early episodes are more subtle, carefully laying down pieces — but I’m so glad I stuck with it, because the emotional payoff was absolutely worth it.

What stood out the most for me was how beautifully it explored themes of identity, memory, and healing — all through a unique dual-role performance that was just chef’s kiss. The romance wasn’t rushed or overly dramatic — instead, it built up quietly and meaningfully, making the final episodes hit even harder.

The writing felt poetic at times, and the characters stayed grounded despite the fantasy-like premise. I found myself crying more than once — not just from sadness, but from the sheer emotional weight of it all. This isn’t just a love story. It’s a story about finding wholeness, accepting brokenness, and loving someone through every version of themselves.

If you're in the mood for a drama that unfolds slowly but meaningfully, and delivers a powerful, healing finale — this is it.
"Head Over Heels" is not loud, but it’s unforgettable.

Losing my mind—literally head over heels

Ep 10 RIGHT NOW and I am NOT okay. I didn’t think it was possible to get THIS obsessed THIS fast, but here I am—completely losing my mind over this kdrama. I’ve binged so many episodes I think I’ve become part of the furniture. It’s got EVERYTHING—laugh-out-loud moments, spooky vibes (ep1✋) , and characters so real.

And Jin Ung? OH MY GOD. I am so in love, I can’t even breathe. He’s like a walking, talking emotional hurricane—tough exterior, but inside? A giant softie with a heart so fragile. Honestly, I’ve never seen a character more complex, more adorable, or more capable of making my heart do backflips. Every time he smolders with that brooding stare, I feel like I might just faint. If I could, I’d throw myself at him, scream “I love you,” and never look back. He’s the kind of messy, emotional train wreck I live for, and I am completely obsessed with every inch of his complicated, adorable personality. I’d sell my soul for more Jin Ung content, no joke.

The story? It’s a wild, unpredictable rollercoaster—full of supernatural twists, deep backstories, and characters so genuine I want to hug them all. Meanwhile, I’m over here, a complete hot mess—crying one second, cracking up the next, clutching my pillow like it’s my lifeline. I swear I’ve never been this emotionally wrecked in my entire existence. I’m about to throw a tantrum once I finish the last two episodes I js know that.

The drama? It’s so thick you could cut it with a butter knife, and I am HERE FOR IT. If you love stories that make you scream, sob, and laugh all at once (preferably while lying in a puddle of your own tears), then YOU need to watch this ASAP. And Jin Ung? Ugh, don’t even get me started—I’m completely, hopelessly, and utterly in love with that walking disaster of a man. Send help.

Give it a try if this genre to your liking

Actually these types of dramas which have elements like~ Fantasy, Youth Romance, Mystery are actually my types. Right now if I say a similar drama like this 'Lovely Runner' pop up in my mind. Although the plot are different. But if you are a person who have similar taste like me I think you should give it a try.

I just simply started watching but having lower expectations because I guess I have watched similar type contents before and was unsure wether it will be able to fill up my expectations or not. And honestly it didn't hooke me at first. The first two episodes was so so for me. But it's the episode 3rd that literally stand out and I am hooked. Now I am already in episode 4 and this episode was too good. The leads have amazing chemistry. And yeah, as for the second lead trust me he is not annoying at all. Second lead syndrome, love triangle is a common thing in youth romance drama so I am assuming if you are starting this drama you already have this in your mind. But I feel like SML and ML will give good us bromance and he is kinda protector of the FL as well as ML . I mean as of now he is really really a very positive and important character. And I liked him a lot.

And funny cute FL , cold ML, I guess you have already encounter these things way before and yeah you will encounter this again here. As of now I didn't find anything cringry. Will probably edit this after completing the drama. The mysterious part in this drama is related to ghosts, shaman so if you are interested in these you should definitely give it a try. At least watch first 3 episode. If it still doesn't hook you , then this drama might not for you. You are free to drop it then.

So my final suggestions to you as of now if you start it at least watch the first 3 episodes. Happy Watching.

Super Cute - High School x Fantasy

I'm Head Over Heels in love with this drama 😍

Such an adorable couple.. The FL is so cute whenever she's with him trying to hide her identity and still save him.. I really wish they would've kept it a secret for longer because she's just sooo cute trying to save Gyeon-u everytime.. I would've watched it all day.. her saving him and keeping her identity hidden.. I think she's the cutest FL I have seen in a kdrama and this role is meant for her.. The casting is perfect 💯
Gyeon-u is so handsome and his smile when he starts warming up to her is so childlike I love it so much.. Love the bond between Seong A and her spirit mom.. everybody is just sooo cute in this drama.. 😍
Perfect casting.. Beautiful drama 💖

Binged 4 episodes and need more.. my new obsession.. such a cute pairing.. love this plot.. I really like fantasy dramas and high school dramas.. it is a perfect blend of my 2 fav genres.. 🤌🏻

And I honestly love the best friend SML Ji Ho he is just so supportive.. I wish I had a friend like that.. and he is charming too the way he saves Seong A and tells Gyeon-u he might become competitive.. I keep wishing Seong A chooses him but I know that's not gonna happen.. but honestly he is a lovely character, a good guy, super cool and he's so much fun to watch on screen 😍


P.S. Love Seong A's shaman outfit.. wish I had one.. it's too pretty 😍

A Thrilling Ride That Loses Steam at the Finish Line

Head Over Heels starts off as an absolute gem in the K-drama world. From episodes 1 to 10, the storyline is engaging, the pacing is perfect, and the acting keeps you hooked. I found myself unable to stop watching, always excited for the next episode.

The cast selection is solid, with performances that feel genuine and emotional. The female lead shines throughout, while the male lead—although great in Trauma Code—feels less convincing in this series, particularly in episodes 11 and 12 where his performance slightly drops.

Unfortunately, the final episode left me underwhelmed. After such a promising buildup, the ending felt rushed and anticlimactic, making me wish for more closure or a twist that lived up to the earlier hype.

Overall:
⭐ 9.5/10 – A must-watch for its strong start and engaging story, but be prepared for a slightly disappointing ending.

This Drama Captured My Heart Completely!!

I loved this drama from start to finish, I fell head over heels. It’s been so long since a K-drama managed to keep me fully invested until the end. Usually, I start losing interest somewhere in the middle, but this? This was different. A perfect blend of supernatural, emotional storytelling, rom-com, angst, and just so much pain + laugh, it had everything I love. This was FOR ME!

The story follows Seong A, a high school girl by day and a shaman by night. All she wants is to live an ordinary life. But one day, she meets Bae Gyeon woo, a boy who’s "upside down", someone fated to die. Seong A becomes determined to save him.

Seong A stole my heart. She’s such an adorable, bubbly girl. Seeing ghosts is not an easy life, but she never stops smiling. Her warmth, her kindness, it hurts how sweet she is. I'm going to miss her so much. Yihyun portrayed her so well, she was pretty in her shaman clothes, and when she became Bong su, she turned into a total baddie! I adored how she fell for Gyeon woo and never gave up on him.

Bae Gyeon woo had such a miserable life… His eyes were so sad it physically hurt. Treated like a plague, carrying misfortune, he was cold, empty, until Seong A came into his life. She brought color to his world. He deserved the whole world. I loved his archery arc too. The way he found a reason to live, not just through Seong A chasing the suicide ghost, but through archery himself, was powerful.

Ji ho, Seong A’s best friend, started out a bit annoying with his one-sided crush, but omg… he turned out to be the cutest. Loyal, fun, always looking after the leads. I ended up loving him a lot. His scenes were a delight.

Bong su, the supposedly evil spirit, was so funny, like a lost kid throwing tantrums. And yet, his backstory made you feel bad for him too. I kept flip-flopping between liking and disliking him. Choo Young woo did an amazing job with the dual roles, just in the eyes and body language alone, you could feel the difference.

The chemistry between the leads is off the charts. Every scene they had together was magic. Even the whole “human talisman” plot, Seong A making skinship with Gyeon woo to ward off ghosts, was hilarious and touching.

And when Ji ho became the human talisman, That was comedy gold! The bromance between Ji ho and Gyeon woo was everything. Even as rivals, Ji ho cared deeply and supported Gyeon woo. I loved their dynamic.

The high school friend group was adorable too, and I loved how they stayed close even after graduation. The unexpected couple was so cute.

I also appreciated the mother-daughter dynamic between Seong A and the General, and the entire shaman squad. Do Ryeong was so zesty, I loved the whole vibe.

As for Yeom hwa... wow. What an evil woman. Even her sad backstory couldn’t redeem her in my eyes, she was self-aware in her cruelty, which made her even more chilling. Still, the actress played her brilliantly.

The visuals were stunning. Dreamy, bright, yet calm, the color palette made every scene a joy to look at. The cinematography was top-tier. The OST was decent and fit well with the mood.

I really liked the shaman rituals too, they felt authentic and added depth to the world building. Every actor gave it their all, the cast did so well.

The story did get a bit confusing and fast near the end, but honestly nothing really bothered me. My heart says it’s a 10/10, while my brain says maybe 8, so I’ll go with my heart: 9.5/10.

This drama made my inner child so happy. I know I’ll remember this one for a long, long time.

Seems promising ♡o♡

I find it hard to fully pinpoint what I need in a k-drama for it to be amazing and I think I’ve come to the conclusion that it just needs to feel right when I watch it so I listen a lot to my feelings and the whole vibe of the drama and within the first 10 minutes of the first episode I instantly felt that. This show seems very, very promising so I’m extremely excited to see where it goes! 🥰🤩

Great acting so far, love the cast, interesting plot, ROMANCEEEEEE AHHH I’m sat 🤭🙂‍↕️

Please don’t disappoint 🥹🤞

update:
6/12 episodes: Can’t wait for the next episodes 🤭

Head Over Heels: Appearances can be deceiving...

2025 has been a surprising year for stories that rework romantic clichés, and Head Over Heels set out to go beyond just another high school rom-com with a near-love triangle it did so brilliantly.
My 9.5 rating is thanks to the cast, especially the leads. Cho Yihyun and Choo Youngwoo's chemistry is beautiful, charming, and dare I say, real. You can feel sincerity in their gestures. Yihyun’s pink tones don’t hint at the depth Sungah carries within, contrasting with the misfortune and melancholy of Gyeonu, who believes that distance is his way of loving others. Their meeting is powerful, and their development is utterly captivating.
A special shout-out to their versatility, they created a third character, Bongsu, who fluidly connects the two, and you really believe in him.
Blending genres like romance, drama, comedy, fantasy, and occult isn’t easy, but it gave Head Over Heels a distinct charm that sets it apart from typical high school fluff.
While the main arc had minor flaws, they didn’t stop me from enjoying the drama it was beautiful, youthful, and fun. I'd definitely watch it again. I hope to see Yihyun and Youngwoo in future projects their chemistry is perfect!

🐹🧧💝🦔🏹✨
