This drama's plot and story is quite common.... but this drama has all the elements in right amount. At first, the male lead Kang hoo young looks quite unsocial and aloof but he has a crush on and acts different in front of the female lead Lee hong joo. The female lead Hong joo is bubbly ,cheerful, clumsy, girl's girl type of person, who loves her best friend and helping her by any means to make her love life work with the ml. However, it was quite not fun watching Kim So Hyun playing essentially the same role in another romcom.
Their coincidences plot in this drama is common (like stumbling upon her in the street or living in the same house chance)..... at first it was funny because of the initial stage of the story . But eventually everything seemed coincidence to prove that they were destined lovers witch was quite dull. I get it the name is " is it destiny" but the bicycle scene or infirmary scene is too much. And Hong joo not realizing Hoo young's feelings after ALL those things he did was frustrating !!!
Hong joo and Hye ji's scenes were a charm of this drama. The way hye ji is soo protective of hong joo and kinda tested hoo young made their friendship look real. The actor playing Hye ji acted so naturally that I couldn't know she was much older than SH.
Bang jun ho being in the drama made it fun... their past reminiscing scenes or way he looks at Hong joo gave me butterflies and tbh the reason for him leaving was quite lame. The actor really did a good job.
Other than the leads the supporting actors played their role vey well. This is a cliche , simple romcom but it was executed right. The story wasn't over dramatic other than some scenes and that was fun too. It reminded me of 'more than friends' and '20th century girl' . Overall, the drama ended really beautifully ,wasn't unnecessarily lengthy and the songs & visuals were pretty too a which made me rate this drama 8.5.
