Touch Your Heart (2019)

You'll never convince me that this show wasn't just fan service to reunite the secondary couple from Goblin (2016).

I'm also almost not convinced that the meta of poking fun at Yoo In Na (유인나)'s character's acting skills wasn't completely on the nose. Personally, I wasn't too sold on her and male lead Lee Dong Wook (이동욱)'s chemistry in the show; it was just "okay". An odd departure from their "iconic" chemistry from just a few years back. Could be an script issue too, I suppose.

Overall the story is lacking but then again I don't think the show was aiming for that in the first place. While I understand that the writing needed some minor themes to build some substance with, the lawyer/attorney stuff feels flimsy at best. It's clear that the show had one purpose from start to finish. Fan service for the fans of Gobl-, sorry I meant, to portray a simple, cute, and fuzzy romance with bits of comedy thrown in. A romantic comedy, even. Har har har.

Your honor, while the show did nothing wrong per se it is guilty of one thing.

It did not, in fact, touch my heart.
