The OST sufficed, but was mostly not worth noting.

Fall In Love With A Fox is a fun romantic comedy set in a “historical” fantasy setting. It focuses on Jin Baiwan, a girl who has amnesia and Qu Zhen, a sly fox-like man who is determined to get the girl, and get his revenge.
When the ships are sailing, the romance is sweet and cute. But some of the drama that separates the couples at times in outrageously stupid. Especially with the second couple. Going around in circles like that was maddening.
The main couple was very sweet, and their back and forth was what made up the main comedy of the show. Their big misunderstanding was, again, hard to get. She discovers he lied, but I don’t understand how that is out of character from everything she has known about him since they met? She knows that he is a cheeky liar and also knows that all of the lies he’s told have never been malicious and often been for her benefit. So I don’t understand why she wouldn’t seek an explanation.
The “martial arts”, which was more like magic, was hilarious. It gave the characters the power of flight, and the ability to neck-chop people into unconsciousness for convenience. But it never once, looked like anything that you would call martial arts in real life.
If you can look past the silly martial arts and the sometimes irksome angst, the drama is an at times touching and funny drama, with a couple of really good songs on the OST and, most importantly, a happy ending.
Final Score: **6.7/10**
