I actually watched this drama a few years back (maybe 2008) so you must be wondering why I am writing the review now, we'll I was just bored in bed thinking of my favorite dramas and this was one of the first that came to mind. Fated to love you was one of he first dramas I ever watched and the first one to ever make me cry. With that said you should know that I am not a cryer and I don't mean a few tears but ugly crying for a long time. It had a really nice story/plot there was no dull moment. It had a good rhythm and a nice pace to it. The main story was really interesting but it wasn't the only good story the other characters stories were really intriguing.

The cast was amazing I liked all of the characters, they had good chemistry among all of them. It wasn't just the main couple who had great chemistry but the other couples too. The female leads family was so adorable and funny (it reminded me of my family). I loved the grandma she was just awesome. The rivals in love did a good job in been likable without stealing the spotlight (which happens often), the main leads really stood their ground and delivered. They were some good actors, they showed great chemistry and skills.

When it comes to music I don't quite remember all of the songs but there is one song that to the day, almost 5 years later, is still one of my favorite songs of all time. I can't remember the name but this one song was hypnotizing. I hummed that song for one year straight I couldn't get it out of my head. I know it wasn't bad music because I remember very well the things that I don't like and I don't remember much about the music except for that song.

I've never rewatched this drama, I usually rewatch,but the reason is because I don't like crying and I know this drama will make one cry. Also because the dramas that I rewatch I usually scan through but ii just can't do that with this drama. But ii do think about Watching it again every once in a while.

Overall it is one of my favorite dramas of all time, good acting and great story. For some who are hardcore Taiwan drama lovers like I am, this drama may seem like your classic Taiwanese drama t first but it really isn't. The ways you connect with the female lead is like no other, I am sure you will enjoy it. This starts out to be a quite sad but it gets better and better as the female lead changes. I recommend it to all!!!!!

It was such a cute story extremely sad I found myself tearing at the end. It was well portrayed by the actors it was a little slow and boring at the beginning but it defenitly build it up. I don't think it's one of those movies that you have to watch over and over but it was good. I recommended to all to see if you like a good sad story.

I found it quite funny and a good story some defenitly eye candys. The end was kind of real chessey for my liking and kind of over reacted they could've come up with something better it think but it wasn't so bad. The very end keeps you wondering like maybe there is more that they could've elaborated more into the ending as for everything else the beginning and middle was good and funnny. A fine story line and good actors I recommended for all who wish to laugh.

Let's just start of with the fact that I've watched this drama 5 times and I love it more and more each time it is perfect. After this drama Gong Yoo became one of my top 5 actors of all times. It is a great story, with really good actors, hot sexy eye candy, and a great chemistry between the leads. I can honestly say that I really thought the leading girl was a boy. Even though the story seems a little out of the ordinary like "there is no way that something like that could happen in real life" the way the actors portrayed their characters you really could believe that was an everyday thing. It toke me untill after the 3rd time I watched it to realize that it really is fantasy you really would never have tought of it. It's cute and funny you just have to watch it you are going to fall in love with it.

Ok let's start with the actors/actresses it was an amazing cast they were all so good looking and great great great acting skills seriously. Plus they can really cry I mean they have some really powerful crying potential is unbelievable how much some of this characters cried some I think they only showed them crying (like the mom). It was a great story I mean the plot the climax even the ending was great. And usually I am disappointed by the endings because I feel like they just didn't live up to their potential but this one did it was an amazing ending with a great story to back it up I mean I was literally screaming at the computer, or laughing (some pointing was done), and even teared up (cried) and I don't usually cry besides this drama only 2 other dramas were able to make me cry and they weren't Korean. The music was great they really knew what fitted the moment it was never out of place even when I thought it was I think about it again and it really was perfect. I am defenitly going to have to watch it again this drama just made it into my top 10 dramas of all time and there is some tough competition in there. It is by far the best Historical drama I've ever seen. If you don't like this drama then you are heartless.

P.S. when you watch this drama you need a box of tissues next to you. Thank me later.:D :P :D LOVED IT!!!! LOVED IT!!!!!! LOVED IT SO SO SO SO SO MUCH!!!!!!!

Defenitly out of the 4 versions that I've watched this one was the best. At times though I found my self hoping that the second leading man would be the one to keep the girl. Also I kinds hoped they could've choosen a prettier or younger female for the main role. Still this small things did not stop me for being completely hooked on the drama I couldn't stop watching it. It was funny, cute, romantic, sad, and adorable. Everything you can expect out of a Kdrama. I highly recommended for everyone it has some serious eye candy and the story was also very well written a few minor twists from the other versions still I liked it very much the actors did an excelent job at it.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE it Lee Min Hoo was so sexy the chemistry between the two main actors was amazing (after this drama they started dating for real). Lee Min Hoo's best performance so cute and hot and sexy I fell in love with him. I've watched this drama 3 times already and I love it more and more everytime. It was some very cool action, love, and funny scenes. I highly recommended for everyone to watch.

It's probably ok if you only watch it once either way after you watch it you probably won't want to watch it again. It was funny at times and cute too but it had potentital for so much more. The actors were immature they could've done much more with the roles they got. It wasn't horrid overall it was a good laugh at times just defenitly not my favorite.
