Fated to Love You starts off as a romantic comedy, takes a majorly dramatic turn, then devolves into silliness. At 24 episodes, it's just too long. I couldn't wait to go to the next episode through the first half. I found myself rooting for Chen Xin Yi to stand up for herself. I cried during the really dramatic parts. I wanted to punch Ji Cun Xi through the TV for being such a jerk. During the second half, I'd have to force myself to move forward sometimes when everything happened so predictably in an unoriginal way. While I rooted for Chen Xin Yi in the first half, I couldn't get behind her in the second half. Ji Cun Xi did change... from jerk to stupid. I also thought that they dropped the ball on some external nemeses that were set up in the first half. In the end, I didn't really care if they ever got together. I would have preferred that she pick Dylan, though I didn't feel that he was developed enough for me to really care about him either. I just felt that Xin Yi spent enough time with him that she should have given him a chance. I did like the cast, especially the secondary cast. I loved Xin Yi's family and thought that all the actors had great comic timing. Truthfully, I only remember one song, Wo de Kuai Le, from the whole drama because I tend to skip intros and previews. It was one that I thought was cheesy at first but I grew to really like it as time went on. Even though I liked Fated to Love You, I don't think I'd ever watch it again. The biggest reason is that the show was just way too long with uneven story-telling. When it was dramatic, it was so dramatic. When it was comedy, it was practically slap-stick. There was rarely a good mix of the two. I did like the general plot for the drama, though, so I will probably watch the upcoming Korean remake with the hope that they will cut a lot of the unnecessary junk and make it shorter.
