Sin Yu and Hong Jo are “destined.” He has now accidentally drank her love potion meant for Jae Kyung, but Sin Yu has been dating Na Yeon for a while, and she wants to get married.

Recently, it was revealed that Na Yeon and Hong Jo had also known each other since they were students. Na Yeon told Shin Yu that Hong Jo had stolen her boyfriend, causing him to build up a secondary offense.

In Episode 5, it was revealed in a flashback that the two girls had been friends, but Na Yeon claimed that Hong Jo had flirted with her boyfriend, although she hadn’t. Na Yeon then began bullying Hong Jo by spilling liquid on her seat and telling her she was not her best friend but a maid.

Her past couple of roles were all negatively portrayed women. In Radio Romance, she was a rude, temperamental, and controlling “has-been” child actress.

She was also the infamous mistress in Forecasting Love and Weather. So, at this point, it appears Yura has been typecasted as the antagonist.

Destined with You is available to watch internationally via Netflix, with new episodes every Wednesday and Thursday.
