Jang Dong-yoon and Nana, Charming chemistry of different types of looks and acting styles

When I first saw the poster, it was so weird. But after watching episode one, I understand what the poster means. In episode one, the curator explains a picture of a girl who rejects Cupid. It's like she rejects Cupid but still pulls him with a smile. Like she's afraid to fall in love but still wants to love.
In the poster, M.L. looks like he's pushing away F.L., but on the other hand, he smiles. He can't help but be smiling at her with her eyes closed. The poster is a reversal of Cupid's photo. It shows the emotional relationship between the two.
The most impressive part of the drama was Jang Dong-yoon and Nana's teamwork. The two create an attractive chemistry by perfectly combining different looks and different acting styles.
Nana is having fun playing the loveliest, slightly eccentric character of all her works. Jang looks like Cupid itself, an adorable, but a little stubborn fairy. His performance is very natural and makes Nana's rather exaggerated performance feel natural. Jang and Nana both have delicate facial expressions and unique sense of humor, which are cute and lovely, but very exciting and fun at the same time. I love this tempo. It is sometimes admirably beautiful, as if the faces of two different types appeal to how great chemistry they can show. The supporting cast of this drama, however, is not powerful. Other supporting cast members are anachronistic, except for the only YouTuber who lives with Nana to show unique performances. Past episodes of Cupid's friends and detective friends have been really bad.
The drama is getting more and more interesting as it goes through parts 3 and 4. The police officer who is in charge of one of the pillars of the love triangle seems a little dangerous. But even the man who cheated on me is suspicious. I think there are a lot of stories left about my past life.
The first Cupid story I expected was about a human woman who was destined to fall in love with Cupid, but it's a more interesting setting than I thought when I watched the drama.
Cupid only helps you fall in love with the god who decides your fate and connects you with the thread, but love is short and has no effect on those who are destined to be connected. So, even if a threadless FL is connected with a thousand prayers, it will not be directly connected with Cupid. At least not in the beginning. Cupid knows that because of the destruction caused by her love, she cannot still look away from her. Given that Jung-ah passed away 29 years ago, and Baek Ryeon is 29, they are probably reincarnated as the same person. This may mean that Cupid has continued to have feelings for her unconsciously.
This drama is likely to focus on the will of love chosen by lovers rather than the thread of fate that God has made for a long time.
I hope this drama will tell this story well but the script is half great and half just so.
However, I believe that the chemistry created by the acting and appearance of the two main leads will successfully imbibe the drama.
