Destined With You Episode 4 Recap
The fourth episode of the show focussed on Shin-yu’s confession towards Hong-jo as he expressed that he likes her. However, it was confirmed that his feelings were a result of him drinking the love potion that was prepared for Jae-kyung. Shin-yu even showcases the CCTV footage to Hong-jo where he is seen drinking the love potion. A shocked Hong-jo is dejected about her love spell getting wasted while Shin-yu then asks her to do anything to undo the same.
Due to the effects of the spell, Shin-yu is unable to let go of the feelings that he has developed for Hong-jo and continues being sweet to her even if his mind doesn’t wish to. He tells her how her actions make his heart flutter. To find a solution to undo the spell that has been cast, the duo then visit shaman Eun-wol, to ask her what can be done although they do not receive the response they are hoping for.
The love spell is strong and has had an effect on Shin-yu but it is not revealed whether the other spell cast by Hong-jo to cure his disease has worked as well. In the meantime, Shin-yu also continues to have strange dreams and this time he realises that the person he has been seeing is the same one from Hong-jo’s phone wallpaper. At the end of the episode, Shin-yu figures out what the shaman told Hong-jo about taking back the spell and learns that their destinies are tied and cannot be severed.
Destined With You will be available to watch on JTBC and will stream on Netflix in select regions.
