Kiss Sixth Sense (2022) [/]

Kiss Sixth Sense is a South Korean romance series running for 12 episodes each an hour plus long. Set at a high-end advertising company, Hong Ye-sool (Seo Ji-hye, who plays Seo Dan, the female lead's romance rival in Crash Landing On You) is an up-and-coming project director groomed by the rather harsh company star Cha Min-hoo (Yoon Kye-sang).

Ye-sool is steadfastly single because of her secret power: when she brushes her lips on skin or hair she can see the future about that person. That's why she broke up with her great love, movie director Lee Pil-yo (Kim Ji-seok), because whenever she kissed him she only saw their relationship ending. And then Pil-yo is hired to direct their big commercial with Ye-sool in charge of the ad.

Meanwhile Ye-sool and Min-hoo have had an almost adversarial relationship. She appreciates his mentoring but he's very harsh with her. One day they accidentally kiss and she sees that in the future they are lovers. How does getting from here to there happen though? Meanwhile Min-hoo is being pursued by top actress Oh Ji-young (Lee Joo-yeon) who is also in the big ad, but Min-hoo thinks of her as a kid sister since they grew up together…

The series has good production value and attractive cast. Towards the end it gets dark when a villain is revealed, someone willing to kidnap Ye-sool and kill anybody standing in his way. And in the last couple of episodes they finally get together then find out they drive each other crazy and break up and maybe they get back together at the end? So those last four or so episodes are kind of disappointing.

Kim Ga-eun was good playing Ye-sool's cousin and roommate Ban Ho-woo, who is really smart and believes in having 7-day romances then breaking up before the inevitable letdown.

Overall still fairly watchable especially on Disney+ which doesn't have that many K-Dramas.
