Lovestruck in the City: A Heartwarming Journey Through Love, Growth, and Self-Acceptance
Lovestruck in the City is one of the best dramas I’ve ever watched. It’s special in a way that I can’t quite explain. I understand that others might not feel the same, but for me, it’s different. Both actresses gave their all and brought their characters to life. They taught me lessons that really stuck with me—addictive, heartwarming, and a true portrayal of healthy relationships.
The story is unlike anything I’ve seen. It has several love stories, all connected in some way. It explores different aspects of love: loving yourself, loving others, and growing together. To be honest, I’ve never cried so much watching a drama.
The six couples—best friends, lovers, cousins, and more—show that love is not just about giving, but also about learning to love yourself first. The way the writer presents these stories is fresh and creative, from flashbacks to interviews to narration. The characters feel real, not just fictional—they have struggles, flaws, and growth, just like any real relationship. The music, the settings, the way it’s filmed—it all fits perfectly. From the first episode, I was hooked, and I know the rest will be just as amazing.
I really enjoy the OST, especially the songs used in the first eight episodes. The acting is great, and the chemistry between the actors is believable. The story is romantic but not over-the-top—no teen drama, no heavy family issues. The soundtrack is spot on, and I couldn’t wait for the song titles to be released. Each song matches the scene perfectly.
What I love most is how the drama avoids clichés. It tells the story in a unique and real way. The characters are flawed, but that makes them even more relatable. You might dislike them at times, but you end up loving them because of their imperfections. You can see yourself in one of them because their struggles and growth feel so true to life.
This drama teaches us that real love means accepting people, flaws and all—and that includes loving yourself.
The way it’s filmed feels fresh, especially with the interview-style scenes. It adds a layer of authenticity and connection. The editing is sharp and has some funny moments that made me laugh. The chemistry between the characters and the emotions—it’s all amazing.
His love for her is so deep, and it makes me wish for a love like that in the real world. My heart just keeps feeling something.
One of my favorite moments is when Rin-Yi stands up for herself after her boyfriend tells her he’s ashamed of how she lives. It’s a powerful moment that reminds us that shame has no place in love. It’s used to control, not to grow. The real shame lies in those who try to change others to hide their own insecurities.
I wish the drama showed more of their relationship. They had something special, and I wanted to see more of them together.
This drama shows how love makes us act in ways we never thought we would—how we forgive things we normally wouldn’t, how we get lost in our feelings, and how we sometimes use others to forget our own pain. The characters are so real, and even though it’s different from the usual K-drama, it’s refreshing to see a couple express their love so openly. I really want to go to the beach and experience everything—it’s so beautiful.
This has definitely been an absolutely wonderful experience, and I would absolutely recommend watching this to anyone. Lovestruck in the City had one of the sweetest, most satisfying endings of all time! I know the concept of a documentary-style drama is still relatively new, but believe me, this drama is so much fun.
