Star's Lovers - 오! 나의 여신님

Cupid's arrow hit two people that are completely opposite. Lee Ma Ri is a famous actress who leads a chaotic lifestyle with paparazzi and media always interested about her love life. Kim Chul Soo is a reserved person who works part time as a professor and dreams of writing books. In Korea, ghostwriting is frowned upon, but Chul Soo accepts a ghostwriting job because his sister is ill and needs to have surgery. Even though he wanted to be a writer with dignity, he also needed the money. The ghostwriting assignment was for Lee Ma Ri who even though was famous, Chul Soo knew nothing about. From spending time together, they develop feelings which gets very complicated when the media finds out. A scandal begins and his ghostwriting is exposed. He loses his job and opportunity to become a full time professor and author. To spare Lee Ma Ri from damaging her career further, he draws her a line and tells her not to cross it. Something he learned from his mother when she abandoned him and his sister. Her manager brings past lovers into her life to help her forget about Chul Soo. Both with the names Woo Jin, one is a childhood friend and the other is someone she shares fond memories of and were to be married but he disappeared. Which guy will Lee Ma Ri pick? Did Cupid's arrow really go through? This drama tells a story of destiny and the efforts between the main characters to change it. The performance and the chemistry between the characters were very good but I felt the storyline would have been better if there was only one big scandal with consequences instead of the same one that keeps repeating itself. I rate this drama 3 out of 5.
