![]() Despite the very obvious traits of a ‘post-it note’, Jang Nara brought an added dimension to the role, and it was impossible not to fall for her and root for her. I’m not going to lie - I was quite wary of how Mi-young’s character would turn out, since female doormat leads aren’t exactly the most exciting to watch. ![]() Jang Hyuk and Jang Nara were perfect in their portrayals of the off-his-rocker Lee Gun, and the soft-spoken meek Mi-young. I was pleasantly surprised by the end result, which bore minimal resemblance to the original.įated really struck gold with its casting. Despite its homage to the original, the Korean producers have taken liberties with the the story, weaving an entirely new series with fantastic characters. If you’ve seen the Taiwanese version, you’d have a good sense of the plot – a one night stand, a pregnancy, a forced marriage, and then, a miscarriage. While Fated‘s plot is nothing out of the ordinary, the characters are really what steal the show and cement it as one of my favourite dramas ever. It features the reunion of Jang Hyuk and Jang Nara, who starred together in Successful Story of a Bright Girl ten years ago. On the back of the finale of Fated to Love You, I’d like to say that the show will stay in my memory as the drama with the best character interpretations.
