Fantastic is a South Korean television drama series that aired in 2016. The drama stars Kim Hyun-joo, Sang-uk Joo, Jo Jae-yoon, and Joo Sang-wook. It is a romance drama that follows the life of a successful drama writer named Lee So-hye (Kim Hyun-joo) who is diagnosed with terminal cancer.

The drama begins with the news of Lee So-hye's cancer diagnosis, which rocks her world. She has always been a workaholic, and her work was everything to her. But now that she knows that she has only a short time left to live, she realizes that she wants to live a life that is full of love and experiences.

Lee So-hye decides to set out on a journey to find true love and to experience all the things that she has missed in life. However, she soon realizes that finding love is not as easy as it seems, especially when you have a terminal illness.

At this point, the drama introduces the male lead, Ryu Hae-sung (Sang-uk Joo), a popular star actor who had recently divorced his wife. Unlike Lee So-hye, who is all work and no play, Ryu Hae-sung is carefree and loves to enjoy life to the fullest. However, despite his laid-back personality, he is known for his excellent acting skills and his trouble-free nature. He has just landed the lead role in Lee So-hye's upcoming drama.

As they work together on the drama, Lee So-hye and Ryu Hae-sung grow closer, and Lee So-hye finds herself falling in love with the charming actor. But with her terminal illness, Lee So-hye knows that love is not something she can pursue. As such, she tries to distance herself from Ryu Hae-sung, but he is persistent in his pursuit of her.

The drama also introduces another character, Hong Joon-gi (Jo Jae-yoon), who is Lee So-hye's longtime best friend. He is a successful attorney who has always had a crush on Lee So-hye. Although he tries to suppress his feelings for her, his love for her only grows stronger as he sees her going through her health struggles.

Fantastic is not just a typical romantic drama where the two leads fall in love and live happily ever after. It deals with the real-life issues that people face when dealing with cancer. The drama takes a poignant look at how people deal with the knowledge that they have limited time left to live and how they choose to spend that time.

The chemistry between Kim Hyun-joo and Sang-uk Joo is hard to ignore in Fantastic. They have great chemistry, and their performance is one of the highlights of the drama. The supporting cast, including Jo Jae-yoon, also does an excellent job in their respective roles.

Another aspect of the drama that stands out is its beautiful cinematography. The scenes are shot in a way that enhances the overall mood of the show. The music also complements the scenes perfectly, making for an enjoyable viewing experience.

In conclusion, Fantastic is an emotionally gripping drama that deals with the difficult subject of cancer. The drama takes a realistic approach and portrays how people deal with cancer and the impact it has on their lives. The romance in the drama is captivating, and the performances of the leads and the supporting cast are impressive. With its excellent storyline and beautiful cinematography, Fantastic is a must-watch for fans of the romantic drama genre.
