Chemistry is Chemistrying all the way
Subjective Gut Rating: 8.25
I love the chemistry between all the actors in “You Are My Fateful Love”. And I am not just talking about the romantic chemistry between the leads, but actually everyone.
**ML + FL - great chemistry from high school to adulthood; slow burn romance but full of fluff towards the last 10 eps
**2ML + 2FL - funny pair and I LOVE the scene when 2ML poured his heart out, thinking it’s going to be a sad ending.
**ML + 2ML - these buddies are hilarious. They are so fun and I would watch their scenes all day long
**FL + 2FL - awesome supportive sismance in life and in the workplace
**Familial relationship - ML + sister, FL + parents, FL + ML’s sister = everyone is so adorable and supportive. The best family you can ask for
**Sis and her BFF/BF - young and cute together
The characters are the best part of the drama. We have two green flag MLs, but they are not boring. ML is smart, but petty. 2ML is sweet yet emotional. The girls are not without flaws, but are so likable. The two romance storylines are different but enjoyable in their own way.
The main romance is slow burn, but their high school stories are slowly revealed. If you are patient enough, you will be rewarded with a lot of sweet and romantic moments. “You Are My Fateful Love” is not one of those dramas with a rushed happy ending. It spends a great deal of time in the last couple episodes to show you this is a true romantic comedy.
Having said all this, why am I not rating this higher? It’s not a perfect drama. The plot could be written a little tighter. We could probably shorten the drama to about 24-26 episodes. The slow burn is really slow burn for a rom-com. Towards the end, you know ML’s father's story and why they moved to San Francisco will be shown. Yet, the way it’s done somehow breaks the rom-com feel and becomes a half-baked law/crime story. Although I applaud the actors for speaking English and not getting dubbed, it was still quite hard to understand. I like many songs in this drama, but some songs are overplayed. You also get the typical cheesy rom-com bright white light during a kiss scene, romantic music playing and slow motion twirling.
I did have a pretty good time watching “You Are My Fateful Love”. This is a good drama to watch if you want a low stress romantic comedy to kill time. Fans of Miles should not miss his handsome face and awesome kisses. In the end, my heart tells me 8.25 is probably the highest I can give because I like the chemistry and the characters so much, and the actors are not dubbed.
