K Drama Review : Lucky Romance

Hello my fellow KDrama lovers! Also hello to those that aren't sure what a K Drama is but are open to new things!


I recently finished watching this Korean Drama called 'Lucky Romance' and it was so good. 

I watched it because one of my favourite korean actresses 'Hwang Jung Eum' is in it, and she again made my fall in love with her character. 

So let's get started with the review!

Lucky Romance:

Synopsis: 
How far would you go to save your dying sister? Shim Bo Nui (Hwang Jung Eum) is very superstitious and does everything she can to ward off bad luck, from lighting candles to sprinkling salt. She has been visiting a fortuneteller for two years to find ways that she can keep her younger sister, who has been in a coma after a car accident, alive against all odds. After another code-blue incident with her sister, Bo Nui begs her fortuneteller to keep her sister alive. The fortuneteller tells Bo Nui that she has to sleep with a man born in 1986 (the Year of the Tiger), or her sister will die. Bo Nui sets off on an earnest “man hunt” to find a man who was born in the Year of the Tiger. When she realizes that Je Soo Ho (Ryu Jun Yeol), the CEO of a game development company, is just the man, she tries to pursue him. Meanwhile, Gary Choi (Lee Soo Hyuk) is a tennis star who moves in next door to Bo Nui because he used to have a crush on her as a boy and pretends to be 30 to get close to her. Han Seol Hee (Lee Chun Ah), Gary’s manager, can’t understand his sudden interest in living in a small apartment and taking time off from tennis. Can Bo Nui find the right man and romance him for one night in time to save her sister?

Things I liked: 
I loved the main relationship and the side relationship...if it wasn't so comedic I would have cried a lot more because I shipped them so hard. 
I loved how sweet the main character is, she is literally so selfless - sometimes too selfless. 

I loved the whole video game theme to this show, I find computing interesting. 


What i did not like: 

GARY FREAKING CHOI. Anyone that tries to come between you and your ships is the devil. This is literally Gary.

AMY is also another irritating person that didn't like to give up. Gosh.


Other than that....I just really loved this Drama, which is why I gave it a rating of...


4.5 stars out of 5.

Thank you for viewing this post, and I hope that some of my posts influence people to check out more k dramas in the future.
