So I’m watching Love You Seven Times where the premise is that a fairy and the God of War, tied together by the red string of fate by accident, end up having to through 6 love ‘trials’ through 6 different lifetimes. In their second life, the ML doesn’t know who he is because he drank the amnesia water like he was supposed to but the FL retains full memories of her identity because she tampered with her amnesia water. So she fully knows who she is and that she’s just currently living out a mortal life as part of the trials, but despite this she eventually gets wholly consumed by her current ‘life’ as it goes on.
Me watching this: *scoffs* smh how’d she get so entangled when she KNOWS this isn’t who she really is/this isn’t her real life – it’ll just be a dream for her in the end. Why is she so invested and getting caught up in feels???
Also me like 4 episodes later: crying and blubbering along with the leads as they go through their doomed lovers lifetime, repeatedly forgetting that this is just a mini arc and so the ‘tragic ending’ in this lifetime, is not the end of the actual story. Why does my heart hurt so much though omg.
Yeah it’s a vibe so far!! It did take a while for me to warm up to the FL and also for the story to really get going (like it picks up around ep 8) but the set design/CGI and costuming has been STUNNING since the start, a visual feast 😍 Keen to hear your thoughts when you get around to it!
