You didn't watch 16 Episodes so your review isn't factual.
14/16 Oct. 6

The non-linear storytelling seems to be too challenging.

Honestly, this whole i am staying away from you/breaking up with you "for your own sake" has never EVER been done…
It can be done well if they don't stretch it out too long and add valid reasons for the break up.

Encounter has a brief break up and it helped the storyline. Others saw the leads were right for each other, chaos unfolding would have caused more harm FL had to finish the fight with her ex/ML.

A brief break up is what we should expect, the elusive villain, Keystone Cops/Security are always deployed to draw out the story.

The rookie mistake is expecting the story to unfold smoothly, without viewers becoming enraged yelling at their screens!

If you read the comments section: Angst was delivered throughout this story.

I still don't get it... The spells are not working, so they said. But they also work (so they showed).Is it working,…
No

Two camps

Some of us understood this is a Fantasy, romantic comedy with Thriller components.

It would be boring if there was no uncertainty regarding the fantasy/magic component.

We were taken on a journey, a love story between the ML and FL.

A lawyer bound by a centuries-old curse becomes entangled with a civil servant who holds the key to his freedom — igniting an unexpected romance.

Destined With You (Title)
*Your destinies cannot be severed, accept it

An accident occurs at a Shrine, FL meets ML and their love story begins (again).
You hear a voice in the background at the Shrine "you're finally here?" when FL arrives.
(Goblin ref Handsome Grim Reaper)

Eu Wol tells ML the owner of the box showed up and she may be able to lift his curse/disease.

Shamans (FL/Gardner)
Hallucinations of past lives (both have them, initially only ML)
Spells/Curses are cast.

We see a bloody hand.

We see ML/FL in present day, Joseon period meet and develop a relationship. The writer/director weave in the past into the present to unroll this drama.

They are convinced Spells don't work briefly by 2ML.
ML tries to find rational reasons why Spells don't work b/c timing isn't right, FL has a one-sided crush on 2ML.

ML was trying to act heartbroken EP3 with regards to Nayeon.

The Spells have requirements, when they failed we saw reasons why: FL made a mistake on writing the symbol. Gardener was also casting Spells to undo FL Spells.

EP14 is tying up the loose ends and no one should be confused about Spells, this a fantasy.

So, it seems like in the next episode Hong Jo will stand up against Nayeon. I really hope that this time Shin…
Hong Jo already stood up to Nayeon and didn't accept her apology when they met again at City Hall EP2

ML criticised FL for not accepting it b/c he didn't know their history.

He learns later on she was bullied, transferred to new school, befriended, bullied again and ultimately dropped out.

ML becomes a Hot Mess and the cringeworthy comedy gold of pursuing FL begins in earnest after drinking the Love Potion intended for 2ML.


ML gets drunk, dropped off at her place and FL drives him home, stops at park b/c he feels sick.

EP7 2FL slaps FL blaming her for going behind her back and holding hands, kissing her "fiancé" .

FL returns the Spell Books to ML. ML does kiss Hong Jo for the first time.

EP8 FL clears up the record ML acted nuts b/c of Spells, was drunk but 2FL omits the kiss from last night.

2FL tells FL she may have a stalker, the photos sent of FL/ML that were evidence of the interfering with ML.

Non-linear storytelling may be aiding in the confusion.

A few posters who were more knowledgeable added insight to the viewer metrics on a previous drama about a month ago, (If I find the links) will fwd them here.

Ignorance is bold and knowledge reserved. -Thucydides

The Peloponnesian War marked the end of the Golden Age of Greece, a change in styles of warfare and the fall of Athens, once the strongest city-state in Greece.

"and suddenly the low viewership makes sense"

Your feelings are irrelevant.

Adults have a role to correct, teach so we can impart knowledge and reduce mistakes.

Pericles was wrong to argue Athens should supplant the Persian Empire with it's own.

DWY is a successful Korean drama. End of Lesson.

FL had a one-sided crush for the 2ML but quickly discovered their was no romantic interest.

Secondary characters provide support, background noise in the storytelling.

This story is about the ML and FL.

Your destinies cannot be severed, accept it

FL did became wary of his attention after ML pointed to 2ML/Gardener as suspects in the theft of her items, stalking.

I'm not certain the motivations, coincidences for the 2ML and continue to have reservations of his proximity to the FL.

Him being trapped outside, drunk while ML/FL we're having a moment was hilarious.
I felt sorry for him and belly laughed. Good acting.

😂

This is a teachable moment.

"Low viewership" isn't a valid statement.

Fact: Top 10 six weeks in a row Global (Non-English), its something we adults refer to as evidence.

Thank you for identifying yourself as a passenger on that short bus.

The only thing that irritated me in ep 13 is why on earth do they not communicate properly??? Even when they weren't…
It's used on a consistent basis to aid the storytelling.

You find yourself cursing at the actors for doing "stupid" stuff?

You're invested in them and don't want them to fail, get killed.

A middle aged gardener avoids CCTV, Security, Police of all the time but gets caught walking by a convenience store and shows up at her residence w/o a plan?

Inconceivable!

(TPB 1987 ref)

You can't apply logic watching these shows.

We have leads having Hallucinations of their past lives, Shamanism*

FL doesn't have a genetic disease affecting her brain but they are remembering each other in a past life?

Fantasy and unbelievable twists and turns are the norm.

Exactly what I expected her to do based on previous episodes, her character.

It's why I don't think FL is weak or stupid as others incorrectly labeled.



I'll leave that to the short bus passengers.

This drama is knocking it out of the ballpark.

Hats off to actors, writers, director on this episode.

This drama is a virtual roller coaster and I'm laughing harder in the comments sections because of the fans.
