Questions: 1. What was that cursed red hand that was affecting Sin-yu? 2. If the spells don't work why is Sin-yu…
Haha - no wonder Rowoon is perfect to play this almost tsundere character of Sin-Yu. I mean have already seen him do the goofy/puppy like acting but the cold demeanor too he is pulling off quite well.
Can't wait to see how this drama shapes up - it really is building up quite well 💖
Shin Hye Sun - is one of my favorite actresses and I have seen her since her days of supporting cast members to now rocking in lead roles. So happy to see her the recognition she deserves.
Lee Jun Young - in my humble opinion is one of those few idol-turned-actors who have played diverse roles and showcases their talent! He is still not an household name when it comes to top K-actors but I am always cheering on for him - like it happened for Hye Sun, am sure it will be for him too!
Also the trailer shows that Cha Chung Hwa is also in it, She has already been with Hye Sun in Mr Queen and See you in my 19th Life - and I love them on-screen together!
Really excited for this movie - simply because these three in the cast line-up along with the exciting story line! 💖
Questions: 1. What was that cursed red hand that was affecting Sin-yu? 2. If the spells don't work why is Sin-yu…
The potion logic seems understandable - I feel all four men have had a sip of that potion, and it enhanced their feelings that they already had. 1) Sin Yu - was attracted to Hong Ju and hence acting on it 2) The Garden Guy - he said she looks like his late wife, and so his feelings got heightened but is becoming borderline stalkerish. Maybe he will be a character who will try to harm Hong-Ju and then our valiant ML and SML will help her - but that will make FL realise who she likes more? 3) The Onju City Manager - I think he drank and his feelings for Ms Ma got enhanced, and while he has been quietly admiring her for 21 years, the potion has given him courage to be more forthcoming. 4) I feel SML also had a sip, like it is quite possible for him to have had a sip from the same glass earlier in the meeting - and none of them noticed as such as they were engrossed in the meeting, can happen! So maybe that is why even he has liked Hong Ju but had his own personal conflicts, but the potion again makes him act differently.
The last one could be not true - and the SML is actually taking a lead cause he feels he should come out of his shell, especially when Hong Ju is geniune and trying so hard. I for one don't hate him at all - and am loving every bit of this chase and love triangle. I like the actor too - having seen him in one of my favorite dramas, Missing: The Other Side - so its wonderful to see him here as one of the main cast!
Why does odd number episodes put me in angst while even number eps makes me keep falling in love in this drama…is…
Hahaha I think so - kind of makes you anticipate the next episode then. Like they make you angry and wanting more in odd episodes, but then pacify you with the lovely even episodes next day. Both the times they keep you hooked using our own emotions!
Guess that's what makes them good directors/writers and cast!
when I saw the episode I could not immediately recall who that guy was. But another MDL-er helped and now am more furious.
One thing to go behind Sin yu's back but it made it worse cause it is the guy he completely detests. That guy definitely uses woman and was trying to use the mayor and even in the earlier law firm using his money to make Sin yu bow down to him along with his colleagues.
Hope this cheating is revealed soon - and she gets slapped double times she inflicted on Hong Jo.
Questions: 1. What was that cursed red hand that was affecting Sin-yu? 2. If the spells don't work why is Sin-yu…
Thanks for sharing your thoughts - and yes I think this way too! I am so glad that the SML is actively pursuing her now - though I know I will be biased towards the main leads. They are so cute and I think both are swayed in their own way.
Guess there is no spell and it was just a way of bringing two people together who are destined to be so, given they could have been separated due to their situation or evil plans of someone.
Questions: 1. What was that cursed red hand that was affecting Sin-yu? 2. If the spells don't work why is Sin-yu…
Interesting and thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Regarding the Cursed Red Hand: I am guessing - in the past Hong Jo was either related or an apprentice of the spell-book writer, Aeng-Cho who was killed by Sin-yu's ancestor.
I am guessing past life Hong-Jo and Sin-yu were in love, but then someone lay a seed of doubt in Sin-yu's mind that he is under the spell of the Aeng-Cho, so he kills her. Either she or Hong-Jo in her distraught state - curses him and his family.
Now reincarnated - the curse has come to present day Sin Yu, and the red hand is of Aeng Cho. To make things right, the wooden box and spell-book landed in Hong-Jo's hand cause only she has the power to break the curse of her master/or herself (depending who cast the curse) and rekindle her destined love with Sin-yu.
Maybe this is why since he is close to Hong-Jo, since then the red hand disappeared as his feelings grew for her. Cause maybe even the evil spirit still likes Hong-Jo (cause they are relatives or a dear apprentice like family of past life).
Also - I did not understand that if Sin-yu's ancestor killed the past shamam then why are they protecting the shrine? Maybe it is penance.
6 - it is still not very active pursuit, but yes, definitely there. I guess his feelings surfaced since Sin Yu has also declared his love for Hong Ju. Men being jealous and petty - love it! 😂😂😂
8 - if the manager drank the rest of the potion, then he should be in love with Hong Jo - but he's clearly in love with Ms Ma! I really hope they end up together.
Questions: 1. What was that cursed red hand that was affecting Sin-yu? 2. If the spells don't work why is Sin-yu…
Ah thanks!
And looks like she might be related to the spell book writer? But then she was killed by the ancestors of Sin Yu's family so that cannot be right. Maybe just a shamam in the family.
Theory: They feel that the spells are not working and everything is happening cause it is their choice. It will…
And then we will have our happily ever after! But yes the hurdle that all drama couples go through - it can be in form of ex-lovers or jealous second leads or conniving evil mother in laws. Looks like in this case it is the seed of doubt - whether their love is real or a work of the spell.
Theory: They feel that the spells are not working and everything is happening cause it is their choice. It will…
Oh yes - I could not recall who was that guy. Thanks for reminding me. Now it makes it even worse.
It definitely seems like a business related relationship than love. But the initial episodes had me guessing that maybe Na Yeon genuinely cares and likes Sin-Yu. Guess his mom is right to not like her a 100%.
For anyone debating whether they should watch this drama...
I personally had great expectation from this drama when it was announced cause the story seemed interesting. Plus I love Rowoon and Bo Ah a lot - and believe they are really talented.
The initial 2 episodes were not that great - it was a little slow-paced for my liking and I was more confused and sleepy. But I am so glad it picked up from Ep 3 and keeps getting exciting with every episode! 💖
Right now: the things that are working are: - Rowoon and Bo Ah are fantastic in their individual characters and them together it is cute, funny and heart-eyes as we want them to get together! - The mystery angle is also building up with the spell-book, curse of Rowoon's character and what is the relation (if any) to their past lives? - the love triangle has just started, it is not the greatest - but has its comical and jealous moments - but all is not super great, we have some unlikeable characters as well as they work to bring the main couples apart
All in all, it is all the right ingredients to have the recipe for a great drama. But then 7 episodes is too early to share any verdict, given that I personally have been hurt by how some recent dramas turned out in the end 😭
Still - if you like cute rom-coms, with a bit of mystery/fantasy elements, tune into this one. Hopefully it makes your mid-week as exciting as it does mine - and fingers-crossed it ends well too! 🤞🏼
Have some questions - after Ep 7: anyone who's seen so far, what do you think? Adding it as first comment below…
Questions: 1. What was that cursed red hand that was affecting Sin-yu? 2. If the spells don't work why is Sin-yu not questioning the red hand being gone? 3. How is the shamam auntie related to Sin-yu? (did I miss it, I forgot) 4. What is the curse in actual - early death for members of Sin Yu's family? If so then how is his father still there and also his grandfather? They were shown in the first episode when they share a drink at the funeral... 5. Why does Na Yeon want to marry Sin Yu when she does not love him? More money/fame/power? The dude she was cheating with seemed pretty well off too..?? 6. Why is SML beating around the bush - he clearly likes Hong Jo.. 7. What's up with stalker/creepy garden uncle? 8. Will the Onju team manager - Gong Seo Gu and head, Ma Eun Young be a couple? I really hope so! 9. Will there be something between - Sin Yu's mother and his friend? Why do I want it to happen - well, I know cause Sin Yu's father doesn't care for her while the friend is attentive.
Theories and Thoughts after Seeing today's Ep 7 🤓 (First Comment Under Spoiler Tag)Anyone's who's seen till…
Theory: They feel that the spells are not working and everything is happening cause it is their choice. It will turn out that Sin-yu and Hong-Jo will get together and fall in love, only for it to be revealed in the end that spells do work - which will make them question is their love real?
Past Life Theory: Sin Yu was a nobleman or royal and Hong-Ju was an apprentice to the spell book writer or a relative or herself. They did like each other, but Sin Yu or someone in his family or ex-lover might have put a seed of doubt, that it is not real love, but a spell.
Thoughts - about Na-Yeon: Given her behavior in high school towards Hong-Jo, we already knew she was a bad person. Her cheating revelation makes her more detestable.
