Touch Your Heart (2019)

Filled The Heart

I watched the two main leads before in Great and Lonely God Goblin and it was so depressing to see how Sunny and Grim Reaper ended. This drama makes me feel really good and kinda sequel, gave a closure after Goblin.

"Touch Your Heart" will fill your heart with abundance love & infinite joy.
Touch Your Heart "Team" did a great job. The storyline has romance, heartbreak, resolution, comedy, suspense, climax and mystery. The best part was Lee Dong Wook (Kwon Jung Rok) as introvert and Yoo In Na (Oh Yeon seo/Oh Jin Shim) as extrovert but both played a cute, childish, innocent character. The love, care and respect in ML eyes, the way he slow n steadily fall in love with FL was so mesmerizing...WaaaooW.
All the characters have a charm. The connection between all the attorneys was so heart-warming. I like how other co-couples also shows a good bonding & happy ending.

If you love wholeheartedly its better when you say thing at the right moment, forget to judge, compete, or compare and avoid misunderstanding, hurts, break-up and put love, trust and respect @ first for each other. ?

Touch your heart is a really sweet drama with, obviously, some drama. This was one of my first k-dramas actually, and it raised my expectations from k-dramas. There were times where the plot lagged a bit and it was a bit boring to watch but overall the plot was refreshing, it wasn't petty drama that stuck out too much and became annoying. The conflicts were very well-integrated into the plot. It also isn't a drama where you have to wait until the very last episode for everything to fall into place (as in you only get to enjoy the couple being 'couple-y' in the very last episode). I enjoyed this show the most because it moved at a nice pace without an overdramatic plot, but was still interesting enough to keep me interested. Like I said that this is one of my first k-dramas, so I didn't know who Lee dong-wook or Yoo Inn-a were, but I love them now! They had great chemistry, and I never felt like they overacted or were incompetent actors. I didn't feel like any of their acting was cringey either (which tends to be a thing in both Chinese and Korean dramas). Also they played a couple on Goblin too, so if you liked them on that show you will definitely like this show. (I haven't seen Goblin but I have seen some clips and they did very well in that show too). The soundtrack is amazing! I really liked the soundtrack- especially 'Make it Count' by CHEN. I keep going back to the soundtrack three months later. Honestly, I don't like rewatching Asian dramas, but I think that the scenes on youtube are nice to watch, but I definitely think that it has a good rewatch value because it isn't too heavy of a drama. Overall, I think that this drama is great and will forever remain on my favorites list, so you should definitely try watching it if you have time! It's a great drama for after work or school or just to destress. Give it a try!

This story wouldn't usually be my go-to but I ended up really liking it.

Maybe it's just me but I felt like the show didn't focus on their relationship that much, but more like pursuing lawsuits, the main character's social life, etc. I found myself fast-forwarding a lot while watching this but the parts that I did watch, I enjoyed. I definitely would recommend it as long as you are fine with a slow romance story.

Sorry if there are any grammar/ spelling mistakes ^^^^^^

Please don't come at me if I said something you disagree with. This is just my opinion ^^^

I came into this drama yearning for interactions between the two leads, cause when I saw the plot it reminded me a lot of their ending in Goblin, and somehow I felt like this was some kind of spin-off or even an alternative universe where we got two see JR&JS together being adorable.

It's starts seeing pretty basic, but they didi tell a great story, the romance was well constructed and the most important thing: the display of a non-toxic relationship. How they talk about the right way to take jealousy and the importance of trusting your partner. It's was quite adorable to see how they develop into a healthy relationship, who supports each other so they can get pass their difficulties.

Also I loved the character development of the lead characters; how Oh Jim Shi started from being naive and in a non disrespectful way...dumb? To an incredible actress, someone who can go thru what scared her from the past and who knows how to go on with her life. As for Mr Know it is the simple thing of learning to live more, to stop being in his own small word and learning to care and love someone truthfully.


The CEO brothers were really fun and had a great chemistry, they were really the fun duo with also the other two attorneys. All the characters were well written and it made the story complete. I especially like how the story of the two oldest members of the company ended, it was realistic and it was fresch cause lets be honest, we all expect a certain ending.

It's true that this drama isn't something new, but being honest it's really difficult to come with new ideas now a days. This drama is well executed; actors, music and all the staff did an amazing work. It was a sweet story and you can't help but to feel happy with every episode of this drama. If i had to describe it in one word it would be: Lovely.

Because the story is simple and straight forward, I had an easy time following the storyline. Sometimes I would question why characters would do something such as "well, why do they do this?" "How did they find out so quickly?" or "Is this how they would ACTUALLY react in real life?" But none of those occurred because the story was straightforward.

Even though the story was straight forward and there weren't many (if any) plot twists, I truly enjoyed the series as it was really cute and entertaining; almost like a slice of life drama that people would want to empathize with.

I almost got tired of the female role of being weak and vulnerable and the story was typical, which is why I gave it a 6/10. However, the acting was great because they both played different character types from their well-known roles from Goblin and their acting skills are like the opposite of who they are in real life (from watching their interaction if extras and other videos).

Make it Count by Chen is by far my favorite song in this Kdrama.

This is a great law and entertainment industry mixed romcom! The lead couple has great chemistry and portrayed their characters very well. The drama instills all kind of emotions and the characters are fun to watch. Although it has some dramatic moments, this drama is a comedy that will become serious at moments. This drama is not to be compared with intensely developed dramas; it is a light romantic comedy that, although it offers many good lessons, it is really about emotions and a leading lady that, even though at sometimes seems aloof, has a strong heart and a loving personality that will really “Touch Your Heart”. The drama could’ve been done without the clichéd breakup and separation that, although it was short, it brought the “I am inspired” feeling down a notch. Episode 14 was the “icing on the cake” and it could’ve easily end there! Still, the drama is fun and entertaining. Enjoy it!

This is your classic setup for rom com heaven. And these two actors as we know have super chemistry so really who cares how they meet or why?! Them it gets unexpectedly deep! Our lawyer finds that his actress secretary is unexpectedly different from his expectations and his said actress finds this lawyer not nearly as cold-hearted as he appears. As they work together we get to experience what it means to be a lawyer and a lawyer's secretary through a major case and a couple small cases. Allowing these two to get to know one another without anyone interfering.

Let's be frank... this is a rom com, its sweet, touching, funny with a dramatic ending that makes our couple fight just enough to earn their happiness in the end.

The thing is after the basic premise is setup and we believe we understand that this will be fluffy, cute and funny but not overly unique we find these well-rounded individuals that are both more lonely and unexpected than they appear. YES, this is a rom com but its between two people that we can relate to and root for. And we get this super neat, uncomplicated romance. A real rarity in drama-land we know that they are living in a bubble that has to burst but like Yoon-seo and Jung-rok we want it to last as long as possible.

I really related to Yoon-seo's extreme fear when her past comes back to haunt her. And when the worst happens I totally loved how Jung-rok handles things. While their troubles aren't over at this point you can't help loving the respectful and yet manly way that our lawyer went about treating Yoon-seo. This is one time when the noble idiocy really worked for me and I felt like it was something he really would have done.

The action was clumped around the middle and the end. It was exciting and perfectly in sync with their relationship but I would have liked there to be a touch more action throughout each episode. Despite this I did feel like the pacing in Touch Your Heart was really great. There were no slow moments or lingering for too long on things that we know are going to pass.

There is this one moment when Yoon-seo is so upset at what happened to Jung-rok that my heart just melted! I totally forgot this is a k-drama and felt like she really cares for our lawyer. And another moment when Jung-rok is so full of outrage at seeing Yoon-seo shake in fear, awwww I just couldn't handle it! So while the action wasn't consistent it was built into the story where it worked the best for maximum feels.

Touch Your Heart is a special rom com that uses the star acting chops of Yoo In-na and Lee Dong-wook to give us a lonely couple who find love for the first time. The crew at the Always Law Firm makes the journey funny and the cases add just the right drama. You'll be tickled you watched this and got to see their explosive chemistry.

At first, I was a little weary about this show; but ultimately, it's a wonderful light hearted rom com. I was going back and fourth between how I felt about this show but honestly, I really loved it. The chemistry between the main characters is absolutely out of this world and the fact that everyone around her was just plain nice and helpful was the icing on the cake. It wouldn't be a drama without the drama, ya know? And they put just enough in the show to show you that this is good for filling but also amazing for binge watching and it's a show that I personally haven't skipped through at all in a very long time. The acting in this show was just A-1 and the further you get into it, you can't help but feel emotional at some parts; yes there was random parts thrown in but all in all, this show is wonderful and worth everyone's time. Like, I can't even fathom why anyone would give this a bad review because, yes, it's another lawyer type show with your back stories in place; but it's literally what it says, it's about an actress and a lawyer that fall in love and what happens through that, there's ups and down's and all that run way but the heart wants what the heart wants and it's to binge watch watching this show honestly.

Restraint acting and directing elevate a potentially cliche love story

One of my favourite K-dramas after Crash Landing On You, Vincenzo and Hospital Playlist, not because it is original. If anything, the story of a disgraced and mediocre actress and prickly lawyer falling for each other is such a cliche it shouldn't be allowed; however. the ML and FL's restraint in their respective roles elevated what could've been a typical transformation love story into something charming and sweet, yet not overly sweet.

Yoo In Na was convincing as a cosseted and naive celebrity with a heart of gold, Oh Yoon Seo/Oh Jim Shim and Lee Dong Wook as Kwon Jung Rok was an excellent foil. The supporting cast was excellent too. I liked that characters such as Mr Yun, CEO of Always law firm and Oh Yoon Seo super-fan, and lawyers Mr Choi and Ms Dan were comical but not over the top, and Yoon Seo's Manager and agency CEO genuinely cared about her wellbeing. I also liked that there was zero melodrama even when the reason for Oh Yoon Seo's fall from grace was revealed.

Yoo In Na's wardrobe was excellent throughout as befitting a celebrity trying to keep a low profile, the only misstep being the weird pink and brown ruffles top combo in ep 12. The soundtrack was excellent, there was just the right amount of music to help the storytelling but not too much as to labour the point or intrude. The only thing that jarred is the excessive product placement in particular Subway and red ginseng.

I will add Touch Your Heart to my rewatch list.

After Goblin, I was waiting for Lee Dong Wook and Yoo In-Na for a comeback drama. I was not entirely happy with their ending in Goblin, so I started to hope and pry they would comeback on-screen together. And finally my prayers was answered.

This drama was everything for me. it really warmed me up. It was sweet, cute, romantic just perfection.

Lee Dong Wook played his character to perfection as always. And Yoo In-Na was the perfect Oh Jim Shim / Yun Seo.

I felt when I was watching the drama, I did not feel it was a drama. It felt real to me. That is how perfect the drama and the characters were.
