I've been busy the whole 2019 that I barely got to watch kdramas. But this year, I decided to do some catching up. The trailer for Find Me In Your Memory suddenly popped up while I was scrolling through YouTube. Do you know they autoplay the video without sound? That happened.
It caught my attention, so I decided to watch it after the first 4 episodes came out. I guess I really like the romance-melodrama genre because it hooked me right after watching the first 4 episodes. Lee Jeong Hoon (Kim Dong Wook) has a sickness that makes him remember every single thing after seeing or hearing it, and Yeo Ha Jin (Moon Ga Young) also has a problem with her memories... All of a sudden, she couldn't remember anything about her past, which is also connected with Lee Jeong Hoon.
Here are the reasons why I liked this drama so much and why you should watch it too:
1) Their chemistry
I can't deny their chemistry on this one. Despite the 13 years gap between the two leads, I still loved them. Plus, Kim Dong Wook has a baby face that you can't even tell his real age. Every time I watch the newest episodes of this drama, I could really tell that everyone was hooked since people on Twitter have been talking about how cute they were every time they're together.
And I second that.
Besides them, I also like Ha Kyung and Reporter Jo's chemistry.
Yes, that's UP10TION's Lee Jin Hyuk, he also gained popularity after participating in Produce X 101. These two characters also have that chemistry that you would go "Aww" or "So cute!!". Kim Seul Gi plays Ha Kyung, Ha Jin's younger sister while Lee Jin Hyuk plays a reporter under Lee Jeong Hoon.
They're one of those second lead couples that you'll love!
2) Ha Jin and Ha Kyung
We all know that Kim Seul Gi is a little bit older than Moon Ga Young, but on this one, their age has been reversed. The older sister here is Ga Young (Ha Jin) while Seul Gi (Ha Kyung) is the younger one. She also plays the manager of Ha Jin since she's a celebrity. She helps her sister a lot, and I find it so cute. She's willing to risk her life for her sister too. You can tell that she's overprotective for Ha Jin.
3. This trio
They are the ones behind "News Live with Lee Jeong Hoon" and Jeong Hoon's co-workers. Even though they appear casually in the drama, you will still like them. They're funny as hell despite being annoying sometimes. But you'll feel the warmth of their love for Jeong Hoon. You'll really know that they care for him.
4. Yoo Tae Eun
That's it. I don't think I need to explain further why I like him. He's just the best, and he really cares for Jeong Hoon too. Although at some point you doubt him, it turns out that you'll love him even more.
Also, let me add this: although I didn't add them to the list, the villains or antagonists in this drama are really good. You know what they say, if you hate them or want to kill them, it means they are doing a good job. Clap, clap for them because we really felt hatred towards them.
I hope you'll give more love to this drama. It's a little light drama, where you just fall in love with each of the characters (except the villains). MBC was very thankful for this drama as it had good ratings, unlike last year when they had very poor ratings. Likewise, those 4 reasons I stated were the reasons why the viewers got hooked.
I hope you all watch this! Take care and stay safe.
