This drama is quite light and heartwarming. When I saw that one of the writers is the same who wrote "A Poem A Day", which I enjoyed a lot, I knew what to expect from this more or less, and I was right. "Touch Your Heart" is a simple drama with a simple almost non-existent plot. I mean, there's a plot, but it's so simple that you know what will happen next. This could be a win for someone but a loss for other people, because we haven't the same taste in stories. I'd say that if you're looking for a sweet, cute, funny and stressless, this one is perfect. But if you want something with a compelling story and whatnot, then this is not for you.

I guess that the strength of TYH isn't the story, which, I said, it's very basic and usual, but it's the cast. I loved Lee Dong Wook and Yoo In Na in Goblin and I knew they had chemistry, and this drama proved it even more. They are what carried the drama forward despite the lack of unpredictable storylines. Had the leads been somebody else, maybe this drama wouldn't have gained interest at all. Their characters have opposite personalities but they attract and their interactions are soooo cute. So if you like cute and fluffy, you'll surely awwww watching these two. The supporting cast was also great. I already knew some of the actors, while some others were new to me. Their dynamics were super hilarious and I kid you not that I laughed a lot of times during all the 16 episodes.

I don't know if I would rewatch all of this, though. Despite liking it, I find the episode length too much compared to dramas airing on the other channels: one episode could arrive up to 1h10, which can be tiring when the story is cute but there isn't suspense. Some episodes felt dragged but somehow, the mood of the drama pulls you to finish them, but I think some people may find this one annoying because of the lack of a deep storyline.
