"What if I insist on forcing fate?"
It's been a while that I'm writing a review and that too for a short drama.This drama had it's own pros and cons but at times you tend to neglect the cons.
I for some reason loved the leads in this drama that I let go off the cons.
The story of this drama was somewhat not entirely a repetition of the usual mini dramas, and I felt like going on after each episode.
The pacing for me was perfect, the director didn't drag anything in the drama.
The romance is not what one might expect from a mini drama with a romance tag as usually they tend to have a lot but this for me had the perfect amount.
The story itself didn't only focus on showing scenes of the leads but rather many characters are shown in this which is a bit unique.
The visuals of the leads together were perfect if you were to ask me.
OST was really really good. Not just the tune and all but when you read the lyrics too you tend to feel good since the song is beautifully written.
Since it's a mini drama I won't write much but overall its definitely worth a try.
This is just my personal opinion but this drama feels like it is the type where if you like it you end up quite liking it otherwise you wont at all. There seems to be no middle ground where you might just give it a pass.
Despite the below 7.5 rating that it is now currently, I feel it's still worth watching.
P.S. Feel free to tag me or message me if you want spoilers as I tend to avoid giving spoilers in my reviews.

Healing Anthology Stories with a Side of Star-Crossed Lovers
The highlight of this one is absolutely the gorgeous cinematography. You can debate if the cgi is good or not, personally I really enjoyed the look of it in this show. It didn't feel cheap or rushed at all in my opinion.While a romance, this one is definitely on the more tragic end of the spectrum. It's theme of helping people through their dreams is present throughout the show, as is the underlying tale of the innkeeper FL who is cursed to the inn in exchange for the bargain she made in a past life.
This whole thing with the past is actually where is loses most of its points as it is very convoluted and never FULLY explained, rather, a lot it left up for you to get the "gist" of what happened.
There's parts of the original love story, parts when she was a child, parts when she was already the innkeeper all woven together as one sort of past time line for her.
Despite the slightly unsatisfactory past timeline the show as a WHOLE is very well done and is something that should be experienced, especially if you are looking for a short with star-crossed lovers type angst in addition to anthology-type stories of the FL helping people in the inn.
8/10

This is so good, trust me & watch this !
This is so interesting that will keep you hooked. This contains an incredible plot, execution, backstory, charming & charismatic FL, eye candy ML & stunning cinematography. I've watched Li Ge Yang's dramas before & he didn't disappoint me at all, but his acting wasn't that good here. FL's charisma & acting were nice. OST & background sounds were so nice that it kept me hooked till end.Was this review helpful to you?
love is hindered by fate
I really enjoyed this drama, very impressive, not boring even though it's just a mini drama.Love is hindered by fate.
The chemistry between Qi Yandi and Li Geyang is very suitable here.
No less and no more.
The actors and actresses are also beautiful and handsome.
Even though the drama is low budget, it is maximized well. Good Job!

Un mini que debio ser largo...
Le di vueltas al si debía o no escribirle una review este drama, no porque sea malo, sino porque sentí que no podía pasar pagina y saltar al siguiente drama sin expresar la impresión que dejo este.... Porque realmente la historia es buena, entretenida y ligera, sin momentos incómodos o irritantes para adelantar, haciendo que uno mantuviera el interés pero tampoco solamente por eso...La historia y el guion se sintió como la de los buenos dramas de larga duración. Pero a saber porque, se ejecuto y escribió de modo corto. De hecho si hubiera tenido una intro de capítulos de su vidas pasadas mas extensas y completa, llegando al punto en el que inicia este mini y ademas si los casos policiales de los nudos emocionales no resueltos hubieran sido mas complejos en la investigación y con mas escenas de acción mientras se resolvía el pasado, no veo porque no podría haber sido un excelente drama largo....
No entiendo porque hicieron de esta historia un mini drama, cuando debió ser de los dramas largos de 30 minutos mínimo, ya que se parece mucho a las buenas tramas bien narradas y fundamentadas con algo interesante para contar o transmitir de los dramas largos con temática similar.... Sin embargo son mas las veces que vemos dramas largos que podrían haber sido contados de manera mas corta sin tanto desperdicio de recursos y capítulos...
Es la primera vez que me pasa que al ver un mini drama, me quedo pensando porque se le hizo esto? Y ademas quedo pensando en como se podrían haber contado los personajes e historias de modo mas extendido y complejo, porque si que se hubiera podido si se hubiera querido, tenían un montón de puertas para abrir y eligieron dejar todas cerradas....
