I could not tell you what this is about

I'm sure a lot of us have listened to a k-pop song where there is an English lyric that means absolutely nothing. This string of words does not combine to communicate any idea. An example is the NCT lyric, "Hot dog feel like I wear goose goose." That sentence means absolutely nothing. I have no clue what they are trying to tell me with this line, and I'm left bewildered by the songwriters.

Destined with you is if that Super Junior lyric was actually a 16-episode Korean drama. At no point in this show did I understand the trajectory of the story, and it all just felt like things were happening for the sake of them happening. The show introduces us to an urban fantasy setting at first (LOVE), and then we learn that magic is not real (INTERESTING), and then we learn that it actually is real (HUH?), and by the end, we are left unsure whether or not any of the events in the show are magical or not. There were plenty of interesting ideas, but the show felt like it was having an identity crisis, unable to pick a genre and ultimately giving us the worst of both worlds. The love story was ridiculous and all over the place. The villains were nonsensical and never seemed to connect to the main characters. Overall, the plot (if you can even call it that) was a nothing sandwich that wasted all of the amazing set up from the first episode. The actors did a great job with their terrible script, but overall, the show collapsed under its own weight.
