My Man Is Cupid (2023)

Drama with no boring episodes

Disclaimer : It's my own pov so please don't judge as everyone has their own taste.

My man is cupid , this drama I agree there's some overlapping plot like past life connection but the whole drama was a 9 / 10 because I have seen many dramas like King the land , A good day to be a dog , My demon I dropped these dramas mostly at ep 8 or 9 because i found the storyline to be repeated somehow or there wasn't any spark to keep going . Past life connection is a trend these days in k drama but we shouldn't judge the drama because it has this plot , a good day to be a dog and mg demon has past life connection too but the story line isn't worthy enough. My man is cupid has NO BORING EPISODES !!!! It's such a crucial point to have no boring episodes because people do drop dramas due to this thing. The way how each episode kept me awake , made me use my brain cells to solve the mystery . It's a very good drama to watch if you need romance but a bit less and a good storyline to keep u invested throughout the drama. Because sometimes in a drama only romance drops Its points. Ahh for the rewatch I think i would rewatch it again after 1 year or so..

Can Cupid also fall in love with me? Asking for a man

Whenever I watch a drama, I look for three things:
1. Is the story good?
2. Is the acting good?
3. Do I want to go lie down on train tracks?
And believe me when I say, it’s only a ten if number three has a 60% chance of happening.
In conclusion, My man is Cupid is a freaking good drama. I love the actors, the story of their forbidden love, and how, even tho both of them know they are possibly going to be hit by a white truck in the near future, they still fight for each other.
In addition to a good chemistry between the actors, the story itself is pretty good. Good mystery elements, funny moments, and romance filled scenes.

The chemistry between ML and FL is amazing.

The chemistry between ML and FL is amazing. Episode 1 was disappointing, but the story gets more interesting from episode 2 and the characters of the two main leads are worth enjoying. The setting, which twists the story of Cupid and Psyche, and the two lead actors fit so well together that it's a pleasure just to watch. The setting of choosing the person you love and rejecting the fate that someone else has decided for you, as well as their acting and appearance, all work together surprisingly well. If I were the director, I would have deleted the funny Cupid outfit and Cupid's friends' jokes. But ML is beautiful. He is an actor who can speak with his eyes. FL finally met an acting partner who matched her and blossomed. FL and ML are giving emotional acting that adds depth to the light drama. I hope I like the ending of this drama too.

Jang Dong-yoon and Nana, Charming chemistry of different types of looks and acting styles

When I first saw the poster, it was so weird. But after watching episode one, I understand what the poster means. In episode one, the curator explains a picture of a girl who rejects Cupid. It's like she rejects Cupid but still pulls him with a smile. Like she's afraid to fall in love but still wants to love.
In the poster, M.L. looks like he's pushing away F.L., but on the other hand, he smiles. He can't help but be smiling at her with her eyes closed. The poster is a reversal of Cupid's photo. It shows the emotional relationship between the two.
The most impressive part of the drama was Jang Dong-yoon and Nana's teamwork. The two create an attractive chemistry by perfectly combining different looks and different acting styles.
Nana is having fun playing the loveliest, slightly eccentric character of all her works. Jang looks like Cupid itself, an adorable, but a little stubborn fairy. His performance is very natural and makes Nana's rather exaggerated performance feel natural. Jang and Nana both have delicate facial expressions and unique sense of humor, which are cute and lovely, but very exciting and fun at the same time. I love this tempo. It is sometimes admirably beautiful, as if the faces of two different types appeal to how great chemistry they can show. The supporting cast of this drama, however, is not powerful. Other supporting cast members are anachronistic, except for the only YouTuber who lives with Nana to show unique performances. Past episodes of Cupid's friends and detective friends have been really bad.
The drama is getting more and more interesting as it goes through parts 3 and 4. The police officer who is in charge of one of the pillars of the love triangle seems a little dangerous. But even the man who cheated on me is suspicious. I think there are a lot of stories left about my past life.
The first Cupid story I expected was about a human woman who was destined to fall in love with Cupid, but it's a more interesting setting than I thought when I watched the drama.
Cupid only helps you fall in love with the god who decides your fate and connects you with the thread, but love is short and has no effect on those who are destined to be connected. So, even if a threadless FL is connected with a thousand prayers, it will not be directly connected with Cupid. At least not in the beginning. Cupid knows that because of the destruction caused by her love, she cannot still look away from her. Given that Jung-ah passed away 29 years ago, and Baek Ryeon is 29, they are probably reincarnated as the same person. This may mean that Cupid has continued to have feelings for her unconsciously.
This drama is likely to focus on the will of love chosen by lovers rather than the thread of fate that God has made for a long time.
I hope this drama will tell this story well but the script is half great and half just so.
However, I believe that the chemistry created by the acting and appearance of the two main leads will successfully imbibe the drama.

Very catchy romantic and fantasy series, with Jang Dong Yoon as ML & Nana as FL.

PLOT: The ML, Cupid, was cursed 500 years ago, for falling in love with a court lady (targeted by the king). He had to transform 29 times to undo this spell (cast by the God of Fate). He is almost at the end of his 29th transformation when he meets FL, a veterinarian, whose suitors all have accidents. She wants to cleanse this bad luck by going to pray 1000 times on a mountain. However, the CL reunion is disrupted by a serial killer and a police officer (the reincarnated king).

PROS:
+ an excellent CL (Jang Dong Yoon & Nana), with very good chemistry and lots of kisses. JDY has still a bit of a poker face, but that fits the character.
+ the 2ary characters are endearing, well developed. I love Cupid who turns into a dog ;)
+ The story is creative, coherent, intelligent. We're left with plotholes at the ending, but it's not frustrating.
+ Good balance Thriller / Romance / Humor.
+ Good OST (It's a K series :)
+ Satisfying ending.

CONS:
- We once again have an all-powerful Villain and capricious and authoritarian Gods.

## The gods are obviously not benevolent in the Korean imagination...

*********************************************************
Série romantique et fantastique très accrocheuse, avec Jang Dong Yoon en ML & Nana en FL.

PLOT : Le ML, Cupidon, a été maudit il y a 500 ans, pour être tombé amoureux d'une dame de cour (ciblée parle roi). Il devait se transformer 29 fois pour annuler ce sort (lancé par le God of Fate). Il est presque au bout de sa 29e transformation quand il croise la FL, vétérinaire, dont tous les prétendants ont des accidents. Elle veut annuler cette malchance en allant prier 1000 fois sur une montagne. Cependant les retrouvailles du CL, sont perturbées par un serial-killer et un policier (roi réincarné).

PROS:
+ un excellent CL (Jang Dong Yoon & Nana), avec une très bonne alchimie et bcp de kisses. JDY garde un peu de poker face, mais cela peut correspondre au personnage.
+ les personnages 2aires sont attachants, bien développés. J'adore Cupidon qui se transforme en chien ;)
+ La story est créative, cohérente, intelligente. On reste avec des plotholes à la fin, mais ce n'est pas frustrant.
+ Bon équilibre Thriller / Romance / Humour.
+ Fin satisfaisante.

CONS:
- On a encore une fois un Villain tout puissant et des Dieux capricieux et autoritaires.
## Les dieux ne sont visiblement pas bienveillants dans l'imaginaire coréen...

Low expectations at first - impressed by the end

I was never into phantasy romance dramas since I enjoy watching dramas which are closer to reality. I gave this one a try and damn… it’s just so good.

I think I might watch even more phantasy dramas just because this one hit my expectations so hard I might love watching others too ^^

I would recommend since it’s really heartwarming and at the same time crime and mystery.

I think there is enough for everyone and I think this drama is in my top 10 dramas for now.

I really enjoyed watching it and finished in about a week or less. I didn’t feel the time passing while watching it. It’s 16 episodes but definitely worth trying.

Make the screenwriter changing work

A WTF is necessary, because the screenwriter should change work. HTF is possible massacring in this way a nice story? Unbelievable! This show could have been a small gem if written by someone else. The idea is nice, and the cast did his best. But seriously: the plot is a nightmare. Cast well sorted, and capable. Also, the chemistry between the two leads is very nice, and Nana's simply stunning. Again, pity for the terrible plot making nonsense: the cast did not deserve such a garbage.

Update: that "bye bye" led me dropping down from 7.5 to 6.5
Come on.... bye bye... jeez
