Analysis :
Destined With You starring Rowoon comes to an end with its 16th episode. The drama encompasses themes like family drama, school bullying, cheating, romance, comedy, and tragedy. It is a commercial hit for a reason but the element of fantasy could have been well explored, the story of Aeng Cho could have been prolonged and Aeng Cho could have been shown as a brave person before showing Hong Joo’s brave side. The series has many iconic scenes which have been created only for Hong Joo and Sin Ju, which makes it worth the watch for the Rom-Com audience.
