PROLOGUE
Reality can be harsh sometimes.
Dara felt like her lungs are burning as she ran barefoot towards the hotel while holding her shoes on both hands. Her hair is already exploding in a million directions and her dress has long been demoted to a tattered rag rank after sweating buckets as she continuously ran like there's a herd of demons chasing her. But that's the least of her worries at the moment. She's already five minutes late and her boyfriend is not the type to wait.
As she was looking at the hotel with determination, her mind is actively weaving a hundred plausible excuses per second. Her uneasiness kept growing as she pictured him looking at his watch with his eyebrows knitted together. Breathing through , Dara picked up her speed, ignoring the curious glances of the bystanders as she zoomed past them like a lunatic.
Upon reaching the hotel building, Dara abruptly stopped and tried to catch her breath while looking up, lightly tapping her chest with the shoes that she was holding and noticing the full moon gracing the night sky. What she failed to notice is the guy standing at her left with his hands shoved inside his pockets while looking up with furrowed eyebrows at the hotel in front of them. His right arm is filled with tattoos and his eyes mirrors the rage inside him.
Dara hastily wore her shoes and grimaced at the sight of her messy dress. Once upon a time, that dress was cute and immaculately clean. After running around the city like her hair on fire, she now looks like she just crawled out of hell. She heaved a deep sigh and braced herself for a fight that is undoubtedly going to happen between her and her boyfriend given that she's a few minutes late. Both Dara and the guy started walking at the same time with hurried steps and upon entering the hotel, Dara turned to the right while the guy turned to the left.
A few steps away from where the two were formerly standing, a string-keeper deity, otherwise known as a 'Hadana', is giggling to herself while resting her hands on her hips.
"Finally, it's time!", Hadana Bom excitedly gushed and clasped her hands together. She closed her eyes and chanted, "Red string of fate, arise before me"
When she opened her eyes, a smile formed on her lips as she gleefully stared at the sparkling red string from a distance connecting the destined couple that was assigned to her.
Hes smile instantly faded when a swirling sphere of black smoke appeared before her. A tall guy with piercing eyes stepped forward out of thin air and the black smoke vanished. The trickster deity, otherwise known as a 'Jursa', smirked at her.
"Hello", Jursa Seunghyun greeted her in a deep monotone voice. But before Bom can even answer...
"Bye", he said while stepping backwards as black smoke engulfed him once again until he completely vanished.
After unleashing an annoyed scream, Bom stepped backwards and white glittery smoke enveloped her whole body until she disappeared.
Sandara and Jiyong, two people with different personalities, are put together in an unexpected situation related to the red string of fate, which is caused by two deities who can't help but to always argue and make trouble.
Opinion about the story** :
It's a well-written story in my opinion. Like I said before, I still don't really understand grammar, so I'm not an expert to judge something like this. But I really think this story is well written. I love the author's writing style and how she describes/narrates the story. There are a lot of hilarious scenes, especially involving the main female character, Sandara. Also, the author always put information/references about some things in the story. And it's a plus for me.
The plot is different, I tell you that. It's not your typical red string of fate story. There's romance, I know. But the comedy gives this story a different color. Well, Huntress's comedy never disappoints in my opinion, though sometimes it's a bit too much for me. Because sometimes it's too embarrassing hahaha. But don't worry. It's not a bad thing.
The flow and pace of the story are good. It's not rushed or fast. I think it's perfect considering their situation is a bit... special. It's just that even though it's funny, sometimes I think the comedy is a bit cringy? But it's okay. Maybe it's only me who thinks like that.
The characters are unique. Sandara is a funny and (a bit) cheesy character. She's the comedy in the story, along with Bom and Seunghyun. Jiyong is a typical cold guy who is the opposite of Sandara. Because of how opposite they are with each other, it's funny to see their interactions because of their 'unfortunate' situation.
For character development, I can say there's development in Jiyong's character. Sandara too, though I don't think it's really visible like Jiyong's. For Sandara, she who is when in a relationship always 'hide' herself to become the 'ideal type' of her boyfriend to pleased him slowly changing and can just be herself the way she is. For Jiyong, he who is always cold and closed to everyone slowly changing and be a bit open to everyone around him though mostly it's only to Sandara. Their situation helps them (kind of) to change, especially Jiyong. But I don't know if it can be said as character development though there are changes and the changes are for the better. I'm bad at reviewing.
The development of Sandara and Jiyong's relationship, to me, is already good. Considering their situation, of course, they'll be close in no time. Though I don't think they're that close. And Sandara's character really helped to their closeness.
Overall, it's a really good story in my opinion. Well written, good and unique plot/storyline, a great romance-comedy fantasy story.
Note from me :
I really really LOVE this story. It's my all-time FAVORITE fanfiction. I know you must be hesitant to read this story because of its characters (Dara and G-dragon), but please give it a try!
This story already has many upvotes and subscribers, but most of them are from their fans. I want other fans to read this story as well. Because the story itself is sooooo goooood (for me, atleast).
I love Sandara and Jiyong's interaction in here. Both of them are very different, but fate brings them together in unusual circumstances. This story is cheesy and full of fluff. It might be a bit cringy for you, but maybe not. It's just so CUTE and funny (for me).
Cyborg Jiyong and Cheeseball Sandara. Don't forget Hadana Bom and Jursa Seunghyun, plus the interaction between Seungri and Chaerin. All the characters!!! The plot and the references!!! Everything!!!
*I want to write my own summary, but I'm not really good with summary T-T
