"Arabic vibes, killer chemistry, and tears—Genie nailed it ?
It’s been a while since I truly enjoyed a K-drama, but Genie, Make a Wish pulled me right back in. After being surrounded by the usual K-culture themes for so long, this one felt refreshingly different with its unique Arabic-inspired vibes.
At first, I wasn’t too sure about the male lead — I honestly thought he wouldn’t fit the role of a genie. But wow, he completely proved me wrong. His performance was captivating, and the chemistry between him and the female lead was unexpectedly beautiful, even though her character was meant to be emotionless. Somehow, it worked perfectly.
The flashback scene absolutely wrecked me — I didn’t expect to cry that much, but I did. Both leads delivered such raw emotion that I can’t imagine anyone else doing justice to these roles. The ending tied everything together so well; it left me with that warm, satisfied feeling that only a good drama can give.
After wandering for a while without finding something binge-worthy, this drama reignited my spark for K-dramas. Truly, a refreshing and emotional watch.
