The love potion didn't make him fall in love. EP1 She was already on his mind Eun Wol. Love potion amplified his crazy behavior. His couch confession, at park wanting to kiss her were genuine. Alcohol lowered his inhibitions.
The writers, director didn't show the full clips to mislead. FL was shook by his confession that night.
Both parties are in denial, fighting destiny to protect their egos.

Incorrect ML confesses on couch the night he's drunk. They don't show everything, you see flashbacks, misunderstandings. EP5 present day confession EP6 30 min mark more revealed couch confession. 1:03 mark EP 6 couch confession, discussion
Is the male lead really in love or he behave like that because of love spell ? is that book real or. just a joke…
FL getting into trouble is required, she's not weak or stupid. She's a lonely outcast who works hard at her job and over come her past tragedies.
Her co workers are jealous, lazy and misunderstood the events with the males.
Virtually every male falls for the FL (love potion blamed) ML 2ML Team Lead Gardener
Groot (ML) never stood a chance in resisting the charms of the FL. 2ML realizes too late his feelings
We see their relationship in flashbacks past/present in a non-linear narrative.
You will develop a hate for Cell phone battery life. 🤷♂️
EP7 Parking lot scene leave many confused what transpired.
The writer/director don't show you what ML saw on the phone, later in future episodes. 2FL lays out conditions for the third break up. 😂
Pretend they are together until she finishes her job on the first floor to avoid embarrassment.
I've described this as a hostage situation. ML has repeatedly ended the arrangement with the 2FL and fallen for the FL.
She lies to ML and asks Daddy to transfer FL She lies to FL saying ML and her were intimate and a pause are normal. ML reacts when 2ML confronts him to the transfer of FL. Beach scene EP8* ML/FL run away from their obstacles several time to confess, share their past.
Is the male lead really in love or he behave like that because of love spell ? is that book real or. just a joke…
ROFL
In the Joseon era much worse happens to oppose them being together.
ML needs FL to lift curse is her protector.
The writer, director don't give you FULL disclosure in the scenes so it only appears they are back together. (Misdirection or vague)
There's no real relationship between ML/2FL Think of it a business or contract relationship that has to satisfy optics. Similar to Encounter drama 2ML ex husband sets up a fake relationship to give FL/ex wife an escape from his controlling family
2FL/Dad are pushing dates, traps on the ML.
ML broke up with her 2x at the Condo and Dad pushed the proposal. The proposal wasn't accepted (no rings, no celebration, everyone fled, somber music, dark).
2FL/Dad go ahead and plan wedding, set date that wasn't shared with Mom or ML.
ML and FL are in denial stage (have loose ends) ML just joined ONJU City Hall, Mayor is his Boss.
Both leads know hurdles exist. Both are using excuses why they can't be more, together.
Co-worker leaked ML/2FL are engaged and they sit together at Cafeteria You can see he's uncomfortable with her in every setting.
Optics City Hall is abuzz with the 2FL/ML being engaged so they she asks ML to play along until she finishes up decorating the first floor. (Pkg lot) we don't see the conditions laid out.
2FL asks Mayor to transfer FL and ML ends the "show" they were in a relationship.
ML knows they need time for public perception so leads won't be attacked, shamed etc.
The key is to remember 2FL/Dad always ignored the wishes of the ML. He let them have their say but ultimately he wasn't romantically involved with 2FL.
2FL has no redemption arc and should be applauded for being hated. That's her role. (minor villain)
Enjoy their back and forth, confessions, camera shots, music cues of their "irresistible love -Destined With You"
Is the male lead really in love or he behave like that because of love spell ? is that book real or. just a joke…
This is a love story between the leads spanning 300 years, past lives. Fantasy genre, Karma.
Opposing forces in the past and present to their relationship.
Shamanism magic works, does fail and others can affect/disrupt spells.
ML and the Red Hand are already in a relationship. 🖐
Rewatch EP1: Both leads are flirting with each other, pay attention to the non verbal cues. Director is using tight camera shots (eyes, hands, feet) background music changes.
They are attracted to each other pay closer attention at the onset. Fainting FL @Shrine scene is shown 2x in EP1
Both leads deny their feelings for various reasons.
Love Potion mishap accentuates the comedy ML Tsundere becomes a "hot mess" chasing FL.
ML is extricating himself from the arrangement of (2FL/Dad/Mayor) FL develops a one-sided crush for 2FL and gets rejected multiple times. The more time FL spends with 2ML she discovers there's no spark, no 🦋. FL answers 2ML its "comfortable" 2ML get friend zoned.
FL meets up with young boy (related to Senior volunteer) at Park/Subway. Their conversations provide more clues to her development of feelings for ML.
The two leads are destined for each other (always keep that in mind) this is their love story.
I really enjoyed the drama , why is everyone here is disappointed 🤨🤨
Some people couldn't follow along, it was too complex. They need to be spoon fed and became frustrated with non linear storytelling.
They couldn't distinguish it was a love story between the two leads spanning two lives present day/ Joseon era.
Shamanism (magic) failures, worked.
The writers intent to show FL character development along with Tsundere ML.
Comment section Tip off: Lazy writing, no plot, too many plots, stupid female lead, toxic ML. Cliches/tropes too many, dislike 2 lead syndrome, shipping their fav actor.
They simply couldn't understand what they were watching and generally made the wrong assumption.
Reminds me of the two co workers. Uninformed and lazy.
I am at episode 11 but I think I have to sadly put this into my dropped list. It started well but where it's going…
You're mistaken, his father kept pushing their fake arrangement including the wedding date. Parking lot 2FL shows photos. ML sees photo of 2FL selfie with Haum Ceo that night. ML & 2FL have zero chemistry, intimacy. We see ML forced to participate, being lied to pick up the drunk 2FL.
You struggle with facts this is a fake relationship.
Rewatch EP3 Condo scene, Proposal scene * 2FL knows nothing about ML, they never spent time together.
2FL is lonely and sleeping with Haum CEO.
ML is uncomfortable playing along to keep up the appearance of the fake relationship with 2FL.
FL confessed EP7, was slapped by 2FL and ML removed any doubt of his feelings.
The Kiss eliminated Love Potion, neural coupling excuses.
He was swayed, continues to be swayed (all along) Both were in denial of their feelings, destiny.
You see it from EP1 when they meet in the present day.
I am at episode 11 but I think I have to sadly put this into my dropped list. It started well but where it's going…
No, you're incoherence isn't proof. What evidence a relationship existed? 2FL refusing multiple requests by ML to take a break, break up? ML is consumed with finding a cure to his curse.
He wotks 100hr/week Doesn't have time to sleep at home, visit Shrine No time for dating -All EP1
Doesn't like being touched by 2FL
EP3 She has no toiletries at his Condo after "two years of dating" No couple photos 2FL/Mayor/ML father ignoring wishes of ML/Mom about the "arrangement"
EP4 "I don't have time to have a crush on you, I'm supposed to be in pain and keep a low profile due to a very personal issue. " He dumped her 2x at Condo!
No rings exchanged at proposal event. No one around, no celebration!
I get the feeling if you were missing one letter on a puzzle it would still elude you.
Correct!Imagine watching ten episodes and being unclear of the relationships. Writer, director dropped so many…
I don't get how some viewers can't follow along, see the dozens of non verbal cues, music, camera pans to their hands, eyes to give it away.
(Preview) 2.50 min repeated scene 31 min mark EP1 FL faints lying on the 🤣 "The handsome Grim Reaper" "I'm lucky to meet a handsome Grim Reaper.." "I'd like to go to the Teahouse with you first"
She asked him out first on a date!
The elevator scene...
Technically you could say Red Hand (Aeng Cho-FL) and ML are already sharing some intimacy. 🖐 😔
Him teasing her about her asking him on a date at his Law office
Her second visit waiting for him inside with her grin.
Eul Wol telling him the box owner was the person he's thinking about.
Her staring at him at the Shrine.
So many hints, you had to have been dropped on your head multiple times at birth to be blind to it.
I don't have a cogent arguement for the scene of him placing the books without box.
🤬 editing
Hmmmm....
They did omit key elements in several scenes.
Misdirection or vagueness junkies 🤔
Her coworkers being mean, lazy were needed for plot purposes. FL plays lonely outcast.
Dad being a verbally abusive husband again necessary to make him hated. Ignoring his son's wishes and pushing him to quit work, marry 2FL.
Both leads needed obstacles to overcome for viewers to align themselves with.
You wanted submission to the obstacles?
Min Ju fought against them and lost his beloved.
Aeng Cho refused to cast curses but lost her life.
This isn't a documentary, scripted "reality show "
Ironically like the jerk Dad/husband you piled on, misunderstood and belittled characters on their intelligence.
They didn't quit, give up in the present day.
Redemption arc for Dad, lazy coworkers took place.
Haum CEO/Mayor/2FL no redemption.
EP1 She was already on his mind Eun Wol.
Love potion amplified his crazy behavior.
His couch confession, at park wanting to kiss her were genuine. Alcohol lowered his inhibitions.
The writers, director didn't show the full clips to mislead.
FL was shook by his confession that night.
Both parties are in denial, fighting destiny to protect their egos.
His Kiss was another admission of his feelings.

Beach scene EP8*
ML/FL run away from their obstacles several time to confess, share their past.
FL didn't like ML and ultimately fell for him.
Enjoy the supporting actors who get in the way, add funny scenes.
Cliches, tropes are not over used in this drama.
The key is to enjoy the leads struggle with their destiny, feelings for each other.
DWY Non-English Top 10 for seven weeks. Netflix
It's okay to be tricked, confused by the direction, writing because it adds suspense, frustration.
You likely want to slap the 2FL/ML.
This isn't a Merry-go-round but a roller-coaster rom com with suspense/magic.
Don't get bogged down with minor distractions.
In the Joseon era much worse happens to oppose them being together.
ML needs FL to lift curse is her protector.

I suspect this was simply too complex for them.
They couldn't distinguish 2FL and ML weren't in an authentic relationship.
They misunderstood why FL did things by herself.
ML's Tsundere role.
2L syndrome
The title, synopsis, numerous tight camera shots, changes in background music was too cryptic.
YDCBSAI
Granny, Eun Wol are the Hosts.
Continuity errors aren't uncommon if you look for them.
That's the easiest explanation for the books not being in the locked Box.
It amazes me for those who missed the "voices", nitpicking if the Spells worked or were solely responsible.
The Non linear storyline broke them.
The spirit guiding Granny/ Eun Wol may have been similar but don't think we have enough to suggest they were reincarnations.
Leads, gardener wore same face, similar roles.
Don't remember if others were, but they were minor roles.
The show was a hit Top 10 for seven weeks.(Netflix Non-English)
The FL lead is highly successful (busy), winning multiple awards .
You can see the biases by armchair critics.
This is one of the more popular dramas in 2023.

If anything is dating the Red Hand that caresses him.
Dumps her 2x before EP3 is concluded.

He doesn't share anything with her, they don't share details his job switch, his health, Passcode after TWO years.
There's no toiletries of the 2FL at his condo!!!!
How many clues do you need to figure out the arrangement was him meeting up with her a few times per year probably to satisfy his father/Mayor?
This is a love story between the leads spanning 300 years, past lives (karma)
Irresistible Love/Destined With You is about the two leads.
Both leads have never been in a proper relationship, virgins and the cringe is comic gold.
