If only I could keep the best for last when it comes to watching series, I'd have not seen this series yet but I guess there's no sure way to do that since I have to see a storyline myself to know if it's an interesting one to take my time. But I made sure to see this series as slowly as I could to enjoy every bit of it's unique storyline.
Nothing prepared me for the story in this series, it wasn't recommended but I figured it would be a nice watch with the kind of title it has and I read a bit of the plot. Still, I got hooked from the first episode for many reasons and I knew I was in for a good story. I've always think that kdrama series before the year 2020 had more better storylines.
The series introduced me to a new actor but it was like I was seeing all the actors I've seen in other series, in their younger and kinda amateur level as it's a kinda old series (2016). This brought in a nostalgia feel to my memories of recent series as I watched through the episodes.
"Another Miss Oh" is a 2016 Korean television series starred by Eric Moon, Seo Hyeon-jin, Ye Ji-won, Kim Ji-seok and Jeon Hye-bin. It's a series in the romance, comedy and fantasy genres, a feel-good storyline that will have you either blushing or feeling emotional towards the characters who pour their hearts into the story.
The storyline is about two ladies who share the same name, Oh Hae Young, went to same school and have a destiny story with the same man. A man who can see bits from the future. He sees Oh Hae Young but not the one he knew until he met her physically and he slowly realizes he had hurt her thinking he was hurting the one he knew.
It's very unreal to see little from the future and only about one character but that was the most interesting part of the story for me as I kept anticipating the next vision he would have of the other Oh Hae Young. The visions made their love predictable but slow-burn and beautiful to see.
About The Characters...
I'm totally knew to the lead actor Eric Moon, who acted as the man who can see the future. He is also a strict sound director that takes his job seriously. I got to learn that the movies we see have more work done on them than I've always thought. Creating sounds after a scene is made.
His love story with Seo Hyeon-jin who starred as the other Oh Hae Young in his visions, is a lovely one. I liked how they complimented each other considering his fears into falling in love again and her boldness to make her next try at love work for her. I must say, the female lead is superb actress.
There is also Ye Ji-won, sister to the male lead. A supporting character I had more fun watching in this story because of her dual personality at work and at home, her drinking habits and her unusual love story with her brother's closest friend who she had always seen as her own little brother.
The series has 18 episodes with each one telling a beautiful story, revealing a past or a future that viewers are made to stay excited about. There are so many lessons I learned from the story too, about love, family and abilities. To every action, there is a consequence and to every decision, there is an action to be taken. I'll say every character played their role so well to make this a nice watch for me. I'm rating the series 8.5/10.
