Wonderful Cast with Wasted Storyline

I usually approach fantasy dramas with high expectations which this drama didn’t meet but an overall okayish watch nothing spectacular and exception about the storyline.
‘’ Destined with you’’ presented a mixed bag of pros and cons. A major reason for me to watch this drama was Rowoon for his striking visuals however the storyline lacked overall depths leaving audience with no interest to continue watching. Despite this setback, the drama does have some heartfelt moments of romance and suspense which served as a saving grace.

Rowoon’s visuals in the drama was such a treat to watch. The overall cast was well picked and aesthetically pleasing to watch, the acting was great and not overdone. However, the weight of the storyline was wea. The narrative lacked depth and failed to engage me as an audience. By episode 10 I felt the story completely lost track and couldn't wait to start another drama. FL has no personal character development and overall was just a spineless and confused individuals who didn't have her prioritize straight. By episode 8 the story completely loses its fantasy element and turns into a cliche love trainable and personally I feel so much could’ve been done. The romance aspect was given more importance than the fantasy element and that awful for a drama that promises us a compiling romantic fantasy.

Another notable drawback was the limited screen time of the second male lead. By episode 10 he is established as the male lead and cue to an upcoming love triangle. However prior to that not much importance was given to him so I felt so disconnected with him knowing nothing about him as an individual. This lead to lack of investment in the second male lead which affected my overall viewing experience and left a void in my narrative.

The chemistry between the leads was pleasant to watch and there were some heartfelt moments which made my heart flutter. However, it is not worth a second watch in fact I struggled to continue watching due to the weak and lengthy storyline. In conclusion it has some positive aspects but if you’re looking for a Romantic fantasy I’ll suggest investing you time on something better.
