Summary:

Dokyung works as a sound director and was about to marry Oh Haeyoung (gold). However, she disappeared on the wedding day. A year later, Oh Haeyoung (soil) is preparing to marry the man she fell in love with, Han Taejin, who is also an entrepreneur. Dokyung hears about their engagement from his best friend and lawyer, Lee Jingsang and they confuse her with Haeyoung (gold). Together they sabotage Taejin's business which leads to his bankruptcy and is forced to go to the jail. To spare Haeyoung (soil) from having to wait for him while he is in jail, Taejin breaks off their engagement.

This breaks Haeyoung (soil)'s heart as she loved Taejin. However there's a catch - back during school, there was always another girl who had the same name as her, but who was better in everything, in terms of looks, grades, etc. This girl happened to be Oh Haeyoung (gold).

Additionally, Dokyung has been seeing snapshots of the future, which features one girl - who is Oh Haeyoung (soil).

And so the story unfolds as the Dokyung and Oh Haeyoung (soil) meets and their stories cross paths.

Thoughts:

I really loved this drama because the chemistry was so great omg. The kiss scenes were something I didn't expect in a drama, so that came as a pleasant surprise. Not trying to be a perv..... I think I particularly enjoyed the freshness and slight awkwardness of Oh Haeyoung (soil)'s character - I'm a sucker for characters like those, because it just makes them feel so much more relatable. Can I also just say that ever since I've watched this drama, I've become so much more aware of background sounds in dramas and movies in general and I wonder how they made that sound. This is a definite recommend, I was hooked onto ALMOST every second of it ;) 8.5/10
