The Story

A chaebol in a vicious fight for succession encounters a problem when he finds out his artificial heart is running out of batteries. But when he runs into a woman who was struck by lightning as a child, he learns that she can somehow charge his heart battery. So he offers her a contract with a large payout if she will simply stay available whenever he needs to recharge. 

Should I Watch

'Take Charge of My Heart' is a sweet romantic comedy about finding healing and embracing the things that make you different. The 10 episode series is breezy and an easy binge-watch. The awkward lead characters are fun to watch and they have a great on-screen chemistry. 

But this isn't a great series if you are looking for a complex, realistic love story. The far-fetched plot requires letting go of practical expectations. There is nothing especially new or note-worthy here. It's meant to be goofy, cute, and simple, and as long as that's what you're looking for, you shouldn't be disappointed. I know I wasn't. I give 'Take Charge of My Heart a 4 out of 5 ramen.
