The therapy we've been wishing for a long time.
Genie, Make a Wish is the drama that healed me after the heartbreak that Uncontrollably Fond (2016) has caused me. Kim Woo Bin and Suzy's chemistry is still the best! And now, with a lot of improvements.
Despite, the craziness of the plot. It greatly introduced the audience to a mythology, a take into angels vs demons (genies). It is also very entertaining and a nice salute to writer Kim Eun Sook and her past projects.
Kim Woo Bin showed his comedic chops, very different from his dominant persona from his past Kdramas. He still made us cry with his drama and crying but the highlight is his comedic take to Genie/Iblis. Suzy showed her improvement (comapared to Uncontrollably Fond). Her psychotic smile always gets me and makes me laugh. She also showed her acting prowess towards the end (dessert crying scene). Their chemistry is still undeniable and I'm very grateful for them reuniting in this project. Those kissing scenes were epic!
This kdrama looks like a collaboration that everyone has been waiting for. Despite some flaws on the story-telling, I would still recommend this drama, specially to those who watched Uncontrollably Fond. This is our therapy. This is the kdrama we've been wishing for. Let's enjoy this one!
