Witch's Love

Such a magical drama - love it

10/10 is my rating. This is a 2018 South Korean drama spanning 12 episodes.
The female lead plays Kang Cho-hong (Yoon So-hee) who learns the hard way that an act of betrayal can make a witch lose their magic. She is told she must find her destined one to have her magic restored. Enter a wealthy Director with a troubled past who buys the building where Cho-Hong and her two elderly grandmothers (also witches) make a magical rice soup that people cannot get enough of. One of her best customers, Hwang Jae-wook (Go Soo-Hee) is in love with Cho-Hong and not keen on the idea of the wealthy young building owner who decides to move in to solve a mystery from his past.

Spoiler 🚨 I loved everything about this story. It was a little bit like Sabrina, maybe Practical Magic - just the right amount of magic sprinkled in. I love all the characters and the two Grandmas are great for comic relief. I liked the ending so much I had to rewind it and watch it again. This is one of my new favorites - it would be hard to pick between this and I am not a Robot.

Over all I thought that this drama was a light hearted and easy drama to watch. I definitely had some issues with it but overall I quite enjoyed my time while watching the drama and looked forward to the next episode.

Story: I thought the story was lighthearted and warm. It did seem to be rushed at some parts and unnecessarily drawn out at other parts. I feel like this could have been mended if it had 16 episodes to work with and not 12. but overall, it wrapped up all the major points (granted some of the story lines were left behind) by the end of the drama. I wish the story had gone more into the witch's world but I guess that couldn't be done with only 12 episodes. The story also had a lot of comedic moments which I loved too.

Cast: The casting was good. I thought each actor played their character well. The 2 main leads had good chemistry together and definitely encompassed the feelings and characteristics of their character which led to some very funny moments. The main couple had some really romantic moments too which I wasn't expecting so that was great! The side characters were good too. The second male lead was just lovable and cute (sort of checked out this drama because of him but fell in love with all the characters eventually) and the 2 grandmas were hilarious! I thought the character of the secretary was a little over the top but it didn't make me hate the drama. I felt this drama lacked character depth and back story but I think that was due to the drama only having 12 episodes to work with...WHY DIDN'T THIS DRAMA GET 16 EPISODES!!

Music: I thought the music fit the drama and the vibe the drama had. As I said before the drama is light hearted and the music had that same persona. I thought the music fit the drama well. Nothing memorable but the music and the drama fit together well.

Rewatch Value: I would rewatch this drama on a rainy day if I didn't have anything else I was interested in. It was a refreshing, light hearted and quick drama to watch. I fell in love with the main couple, which I wasn't expecting to do so I would rewatch it for them


Overall, as I said I would recommend this to anyone looking for a quick and easy drama to watch. It is cute and light hearted but don't expect anything deep. I thought this drama was quite enjoyable and I thought the witch aspect of the drama was really unique.

Ok first of all i want to say i kind a like this drama.. yes it s not too perfect but itz not boring type... i really like fantasy dramas thats why i downloded it & yes i really like this story line too.. it confused me till last 3 eposode... i wanted to know what happend to boy, why he become like this, what he dreaming, there r lot of questions come to my mind.. so writer successfully line that up.. but unfortunately when the truth revealed it really dessapoint me ? i thought there will be much more than actually happend... so ending is bit childish to me.. this drama make my hopes really high and In seconds, my expectations dropped.. ?

As for acting main couple have low chemistry but it not too bad.. main female lead bit good fpr acting but she cant cry.. actually i am not even feeling bit of sad.. as for male lead he has no feeling on his face.. he has same face expression. So i dont like his acting.. and yes 2nd male lead is good actor but he s not get to act more n this darama...

This was a drama that wasn't 100% bad, but neither good. The writers lost me somewhere around the 7th-8th episode. I think my 6 year old cousin would write a better plot than this one. I was able to skip the last episodes and still follow the story.
It just got boring. Also,the main lead was bland,i didn't really care for him,i loved Hongbin as the second lead but his character was pointless,the female lead was okay and the grandmas were funny but honestly annoying at times.
The only great thing was the skinship and the light romance. That's why i stayed until the end. But again,i found myself disappointed. It was rushed.

Overall,this drama had a nice fresh concept but it was poorly developed.

Its a witchy romance all about a witch and her fate with a human. It started 25.years ago when they were children. They never even met at the time but the girls hair used to save the life of a boy that was kidnapped but had wander off from his captor. He is found by the girls grandma, witches who saved him because he was a child.
The boy grew up to be an arrogant, audacious, haughty, overbearing, domineering and also handsome man who through his powerful and wealthy means purchased the home and restaurant of these three witches. This made them powerless against him and he moved into the home with them and caused them to be his servants.
So in plain sight in bustling Seoul, three generations of witches have been living below the radar of everyone around them. Kang Cho Hong operates a restaurant with her fellow witches, Maeng Ye Soon and Jo Aeng Doo. They try to keep a low profile, but Cho Hong’s youthful good looks attract the attention of a neighborhood guy, Hwang Jae Wook, who is constantly trying to get close to her. He is a writer and he is writing about them and their lives as witches in his imagination. Cho Hong and her fellow witches’ quiet lives become complicated when their building landlord, Ma Sung Tae, shows up one day. Sung Tae wants to face a traumatic incident that happened to him in that building when he was a little boy. With Sung Tae nosing around their business on a regular basis, can Cho Hong keep her true identity a secret from him?
Kang Cho-Hong (Yoon So-Hee) works as a delivery woman for a Korean food restaurant. She is a witch and she always finds herself in the business of others.
Kang Cho-Hong loses her witch powers after she was betrayed by a man she loved.(That is right the guy in the bank) So she goes to powerful black witch to get them back. Similar to Ursula in “The Little Mermaid”the witch wants something personal that contains the owners, stories, memories, histories, tears, affections she does not want the expensive large silver plate but instead takes her mother’s keepsake rings on a sliver chain around her neck, the rings are a love token of her mother and father. Kang Cho-Hong doesn’t want to give it to her but wants her powers back so she reluctantly relinquishes it to her. The Black Witch Hwa Ja told Cho Hong that she could regain her witch powers if she kisses the man of her destiny. After hearing this, Cho Hong started to fall for Sung Tae despite the fact that her destined love was actually Jae Wook ,the writer,(played by VIXX’s Hongbin). When her grandmas Ye Soon (played by Kim Young Ok) and Aeng Doo (played by Go Soo Hee) found out about this, they demanded that she break up with Sung Tae.

Sung Tae has been haunted by the memories of his abduction involving a two-story building and a mysterious woman. After he became an adult, he started to investigate the case on his own and found a building that closely resembled the one in his memory. This building turned out to be the soup restaurant run by Cho Hong and her grandmas. After it was revealed that the three witches were somehow involved in Sung Tae’s abduction, many viewers became curious about the mysterious incident. Ye Soon recognized Sung Tae’s mom and noticed a scar on Sung Tae’s chest. She then became shocked after realizing that Sung Tae was the boy from the past. Viewers were also given a peek at the past when Ye Soo broke the witch’s rule of not getting involved in humans’ lives and visited the black magic witch in order to save the life of a young boy.
You need a strand of hair from a young girl. A fresh strand of hair from a child that isn't 1,000 days old yet. I see.... they used her hair for Ma Sung Tae and gave him some of her powers. It's Cho Hong's hair. So they used the magic knife to cut her hair and to heal the wound. She would be less than 3 years old then. So they magically set alight a strand if hair that fell on to the injury.Since he survived through Cho Hong's hair, witches blood runs through his veins, too. That is why they are destined to be lovers as well as the other man. This ia also why they can’t lock him out of the house. He can magically open the doors. That's why his memories weren't completely erased. Do you think his memories were completely erased this time?
The Grandma. Aeng Doo had exLover problems and why I wrote these quotes:
I'm glad I don't get like this when I see my ex. I've freed my heart

Yep people break the bottle and free your heart don’t be like this

Thats right the bottle broke the first time when they kissed the rings were around the bottle
When Kang Cho-Hong start smashing all the bottles of people essences. The Black Witch loses power, but lucky the two Grandmothers turn up in time to save their grand daughter. You know who Hwa Ja is, don't you? She's a black witch who harvests our powers. is a scheme to steal their last ounce of power. she can see and hear them throught the crystal ball that she has so she knows everything they are doing and saying!! That's how multiple witches disappeared into the darkness. Just like Ursula in the” Little Mermaid”.
Awesome all her power vanished. All those witches get back their power. I the meantime at the hospital Sung Tae was dying

This is not an EKG reading...just squiggly lines on a monitor...so don't get an EKG tattoo that looks like this,,,JS!! Where is your 350 D-vib? Then magic comes to heal him after all the essence bottles are broken.

Hyun Woo plays the role of
Ma Sung-Tae
I've disliked his character from the start. Constant threats instead of love and encouragement - doesn't work for me.
This is one of his quotes the annoyed me. You shouldn't do anything that makes me care. Because all of these situations that make me pissed, irritated, and turn me into a crazy man that can't mind his own business is unexpected, unpleasant, and bothersome! That you have to evacuate your shop once if you break the rules. How can you look so clueless when I am talking to you? Also, your habit of giving me food with those dirty chopsticks, please refrain from doing that. It makes me uncomfortable. I think that while he lost his memories, he also lost his manners. I think you're mistaking something. I'm the building owner and you are the tenant. What kind of tenant in the Republic of South Korea can ask their building owner to leave? I don't want to.

He is the destined man, you did not watch closely enough and still wanted Jae Woo to end up with Cho-Hong .
Yeah, and he remembered that she's the final witch? Were all the problems they had to be together gone?
The ending was choice he finds them gives her the necklace, kisses her and take her home. So good after the many dramas I have watched and cried painfully at the end when it didn’t end how I wanted it to end. I didn’t get my way in this ending either but the writer had their way. But it was still happy for them they kept kissing and kissing.

Don't worry. Sometimes when you fall in love, you break up; and once you break up, you forget and are forgotten. That's how it is. It's not like my love was anything grand.

It seems like the seal has been broken. You were destined to die anyway, so you're leaving when your time's up.

Honestly, this would have been a great watch near Halloween because of Disney/Nickelodeon spooky theme soundtrack. And that is basically how I thought about this series - except for the traumatizing backstory of the main character, Ma Sung Tae (or Director Ma) and a few intimate scenes, this series played out like a PG Nickelodeon (or Teen Nick) version of Sabrina The Teenage Witch, but with love interests that are about 10 years apart in age. I went along with this series and it was a fun and heartbreaking time, but it wasn't anything special. It was cute and PG at most. I think the fact that I teared up about 5 times made he want to give it a 3 instead of a 2.5 at the end.

Routine male centrism spoils the whole thing, it really wasn't needed.

If it wasn't for the guys being a pain the story would be great. But seeing the FL putting up with ML's entitlement is growing really old. She keeps putting up with his sh*t and that ML is depicted as if this whole behaviour is acceptable. If you don't think much about his behaviour in 2026, I guess you're one of those people who can still imagine that getting married is a positive thing.
Personally this is really putting me off, I don't feel any chemistry between the leads and I find myself fast forwarding fairly often to be done 빨리빨리 (quickly) because this kind of behaviour and the niceness of the FL are both insufferable. Ditch the guy! It's just not endearing.

I am a big fan of rich and seemingly cold male leads so I may have a bias.

The romance was very sweet. The characters are very honest with each other, though they still had their little lover's quarrels. At first, I didn't like the personality of the lead female, but she turned alright in the end. It's a relief that the love triangle didn't end up killing any good relationships.

The end seemed a bit abrupt though, and I was really hoping for more. Some of the problems in the story are never fully solved and it leaves the watchers wondering what happened. The characters, besides the lead male are never really developed, but if you aren't feeling for anything super deep, then it's great.
