My Sept 2025 recommendation
Long time wonder about this. Finally I watched this, tx to 𝑯𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒊𝒏 amd Recommendation Challenge
Let's start our review…
The story revolves around Park Soo Ha (SH), Jang Hye Sung (HS) and Min Joon Kook (MJK).
The story begins with a tragic car accident involving SH and his father. But this wasn't just any accident; it was caused by MJK. Not only did MJK cause the crash, he personally killed SH’s father to make sure he was dead. Worst of all, young SH witnessed the murder. Because of the accident, SH also gained the ability to hear people’s thoughts.
By fate—or luck—the accident was witnessed by HS and her friend, Seo Do-yeon (DY). When the trial came, HS came forward as a key witness. Her testimony was decisive—MJK was convicted and sent to prison. Before disappearing behind bars, however, MJK swore to make HS pay for her testimony..
And just like that, the fates of SH, HS, and MJK became deeply entangled. With MJK vowing to get even, and SH silently determined to protect the woman who once saved him.
Fast-forward ten years. SH is now a high school student, living a quiet life—though he’s long lost contact with HS. One day, he comes across a newspaper article announcing HS’s appointment as a public defender.
Overjoyed, he rushes to meet her—only to discover that HS is nothing like he remembered. The brave, courageous girl he remembered has transformed into a sharp-tongued, blunt, and cynical woman. She’s self-centered, indifferent, and has lost faith in justice itself.
Slowly, however, HS begins to change—thanks to SH’s quiet support and her colleague, Cha Kwan Woo (KW). SH’s secret ability also often helps her with cases, reigniting her sense of purpose.
But chaos strikes when MJK is finally released from prison. He returns with one goal: to make HS pay, while SH positions himself as her protector. As they face danger together, the bond between SH and HS deepens.
For SH, his childhood admiration blossoms into romantic love. At first, HS doesn’t see him that way; to her, he’s just a bright-eyed kid who suddenly appeared in her life. But when SH mysteriously disappears—and later returns—something shifts inside her too. Her feelings begin to change.
Yet, while emotions grow between them, MJK’s threat lingers in the background. What will be the end of their intertwined story? And most importantly: what was MJK’s true reason for killing SH’s father in the first place?
That's pretty much the story without giving the spoiler. Now what I like and don't.
What I like:
+ The great chemistry between all the cast
+ KW is a great 2nd lead. We can see how frustrated he is when his love unreciprocated he still chooses to help.
+ Good side & bad side of human life. Like KW said: “The difference between SH & KW is just SH has someone by his side, while KW has none. If KW has someone that stands by his side from the first, maybe it can all have a different ending.”
What I don't too like:
- For me, even though I like the growing relationship between SH & HS, somehow I still prefer HS with KW.
Overall this is a really good drama to watch.
