It's short, it's quirky, it's funny, but it feels incomplete. It's still worth a watch because it's certainly entertaining but the ending is pretty unsatisfying. This is the final installment in the  "T-Scope Trilogy", but this story is pretty standalone. This  feels more a like a pilot episode, or act one of a movie than a full story. Before this I didn't think Hwayoung could do well on comedy,  but she pulled it off okay and there are plenty of funny moments. Honestly, with only three short episodes there isn't a lot to talk about Fortuneteller's Secret Recipe, but go ahead and watch it to take your own conclusions.

Honestly it is too good to be a short web drama. Don't let the low average score scare you away, as there's much more depth in this story than it appears at first. Girl's War is the second web drama part of a  "T-Scope trilogy" but other than the app this story stands completely alone. It's about a reality show with idol trainees in the vein of Produce 101, but things get dark really early.

Considering the premise, I'd say Ryu Hwayoung is both the best and the worst actress to play the main role, but no matter how you feel about her real life persona I think she nailed this part. Girl's War could have been great with a bigger budget for songs and/or as a longer drama, but it's still really good. Very much worth a watch.

Most short romance web dramas tend to follow a pretty straight forward formula and this one makes it feel like it's going to be the case... at first. This might look like a fluffy romance, but it's not. The best thing about this drama it's not full of mary sues and all characters are flawed in ways that make them seem more human.

Unfortunately I feel time was poorly used and the story takes a little to long to get where it starts getting really interesting and it stays there for too little time. But even with all the missed opportunities it's still an interesting story.  It's about as long as a feature film, so it's worth a watch.
