From the very first frame, Head Over Heels throws us headfirst into a dazzling mix of high school chaos and spine-tingling spirits—with a generous sprinkle of drama, charm, and unexpected sass. And trust us, Bollywood fans, if you thought only our desi shows could deliver emotional punch with supernatural flair, think again. This K-drama is all set to steal hearts (and maybe haunt a few)!
We meet Park Seong-ah, a teenager juggling textbooks by day and shamanic rituals by night. No, seriously—while her classmates cram for exams, she’s busy banishing spirits. Talk about a double shift! But Seong-ah’s got dreams beyond exorcisms—she wants to ditch her inherited spiritual path and live a normal, Netflix-and-assignments kind of life. Too bad the ghost world has other plans.
Enter Gyeon-woo—the brooding, unlucky-by-birthright new transfer student. He’s handsome, mysterious, and (classic drama move) totally not into spiritual mumbo-jumbo. But Seong-ah has seen him in a vision—walking upside down, a big red flag in the shaman’s playbook. Translation? The boy’s dancing dangerously close to death. And she, of course, is determined to save him.

But saving someone from fate isn’t your average teenage crush dilemma. In fact, Seong-ah once tried this heroic act before, and it nearly cost her her life. So why risk it all again? Maybe it’s his face. Maybe it’s fate. Maybe it’s just that classic K-drama tension we all secretly live for.
Back at school, Seong-ah’s social life is as cursed as her spirit clients. Ji-ho, her loyal BFF, is the only one who gets her. That’s why it’s a total bombshell moment when Gyeon-woo shows up in her class. Talk about bad omens turning into plot twists.
What follows is a rollercoaster of premonitions, near-death run-ins, creepy bathroom ghosts, and—wait for it—a spirit attack during school hours. (Yup, that escalated quickly.) One minute Seong-ah’s splashing holy water like it’s Holi, and the next, Gyeon-woo’s fuming about her “fraudulence.” Bro, she just saved your life—again.
Also, shoutout to the water ghost who appears out of nowhere and starts throwing a tantrum. Now that’s what we call a scene-stealer. Seong-ah, of course, promises to help her “cross over peacefully”—because ghost therapy is now officially a thing.
By the end of the episode, Gyeon-woo’s still not buying the supernatural stuff, Seong-ah’s passed out from exhaustion, and we’re all left clutching our metaphorical popcorn. Because if Episode 1 is this packed with twists, what’s the rest of the season holding back?
The Verdict?
Head Over Heels kicks off with just the right blend of eerie, emotional, and endearing. There’s enough school-life relatability for the slice-of-life crowd and enough spooky masala for the horror-thriller junkies. Seong-ah is adorably awkward, brave, and far from your usual “damsel in distress.” And Gyeon-woo? The classic K-drama hero with a past, a scowl, and probably a secret soft side we haven’t seen yet.
With hints of romance, regret, reincarnation, and all the other R-rated (read: relatable) emotions we love, this one’s shaping up to be a binge-worthy gem. Plus, with visuals that feel like a fantasy graphic novel and a soundtrack that gives Just Between Lovers vibes, this show knows exactly how to pull on heartstrings and raise goosebumps.
Should You Watch It?
If you’re the kind who loves your rom-coms with a twist of tragedy, or you’re just waiting for the next Goblin-level obsession, Head Over Heels is your next weekend binge. It’s quirky, a little chaotic, and totally heart-first. And let’s be honest—aren’t we all just suckers for a forbidden love story wrapped in a ghost story?
