Lucky Romance
SYNOPSIS
Bo-Nui works various part-time jobs to support herself and pay her younger sister's, Bo-Ra, hospital bills. Her younger sister has been in a coma for the past 2 years because of a car accident. Bo-Ra is also Bo-Nui's only immediate family member as their parents died in a separate car accident. Bo-Nui is a firm believer in fortune tellers after an encounter when her younger sister was first hospitalised. At that time, Bo-Nui was standing right outside of the hospital and crying. A fortune teller came up to her. The fortune teller knew all about her situation without Bo-Nui saying anything. He told her that those around her were all hurt because of her fate. The fortune teller also told Bo-Nui that if she wanted to save her sister she must perform a specific ritual. After performing the ritual, Bo-Nui went back to the hospital and learned her sister has survived, but she is in a vegetative state.
Now, Bo-Ra's condition has worsened and the doctor tells Bo-Nui to give up hope for a recovery. Bo-Nui refuses to give up hope. She turns to the fortune teller for help. The fortune teller tells Bo-Nui that there's only one thing that can save her sister. Bo-Nui must have a one night stand with a man born in 1986 - the year of the tiger.
Meanwhile, Soo-Ho is the CEO of Zeze Game Company. He is smart, but also arrogant. On the day he is to give a presentation for a new game, he continually bumps into Bo-Nui in unpleasant ways. Soo-Ho's presentation turns into a complete failure due to trauma from his childhood past and bad code intentionally placed into the game. Later, Soo-Ho again sees Bo-Nui's out in the public, but she is drunk. Bo-Nui grabs Soo-Ho and repeatedly asks him if he was born in the year of the tiger. Soo-Ho tells her that he was born in 1986 - the year of the tiger.

Review
2 out of 5
Kinda a bit iffy on my side, seeing it was one of those cliches. Like hella cliche-y....
Although, the actors in this was super cute and a bunch of dorks. For instance, an awkward silence would approach and they would look each other and snort. All things were as usual, nothing major happened. Well besides the female lead needing to literally SLEEP with a guy born in the year of the tiger,,, are people actually that superstitious???
Truth be told, I kinda forced myself to watch the drama - seeing I have posters of it from KCON lmao
BUT I NOW LOVE LEE SOOHYUK
LIKE DAMN THAT GUY IS A1
ok but also i rly hated the female leads hair tbh like no thank u ,, pls stick w the bob tyvm
