Changing their destiny while finding their promised one.

The series isn't bad at all, if you're a fan of typical rom-coms, it's perfect. The series reminded me a lot of "True Beauty", from the execution of the acting to the characters themselves, so that tramples a little on the originality. I picked up the series because it was trending and the script seemed interesting.

The story is cute, and I liked it to pass the time, not too heavy, fun and romantic. The conundrum of changing the future while finding the person who is destined for us by random coincidences on their path (but are they really coincidences ?). Basically two people who fight for each other to survive the tragic events of their lives. It's touching.

This is my first time seeing Kim Hye Yoon as main lead, apparently she has appeared in other series that I have seen as guest but never stood out to me. Not much to say, she did her job but I wasn't overly impressed by her acting.
Byeon Woo Seok is another matter, I remember seeing viral clips of him during his series "Strong Girl Namsoon" (which I haven't seen) typically because of his good looks, I wanted to see if he had more to show and I think that is the case. He's blowing up as an actor, I think it's just a matter of time before he's offered roles more versatile than the boyfriend or good looking villain.

I honestly recommend this series, it's chill and enjoyable.
