Synopsis
Achi is an ordinary employee at a stationary company. He's still single, still a virgin. When he turns thirty, however, he's shocked to find he's developed the power to read people's minds when making physical contact. He attempts to avoid contact with anyone, but it gets worse when Achi accidentally reads the mind of Karan, his most handsome, perfect colleague. He learns that this good-natured, smiley guy is falling for him. Following this incident, he does his best to keep his distance in order to nip Karan's feelings in the bud.

A Wholesome Rom-Com with a Touch of Magic
Cherry Magic has been on everyone’s radar since GMMTV’s 2023 lineup announcement. As a remake of the hit J-drama Cherry Magic (30-sai made Dotei Da to Mahotsukai ni Nareru rashii), it brings together the talents of Tay Tawan and New Thitipoom, who previously stole hearts in Dark Blue Kiss (2019).
The story kicks off with Achi, a simple man who keeps his head down at work. But on his 30th birthday, he discovers an unexpected ability: he can read minds when he touches someone. And guess what? The hottest guy at the office, Karan, has a crush on him! The workplace romance takes a delightful turn as Achi navigates his newfound power and feelings.
So, what makes Cherry Magic stand out?
- Adorable and Over-the-Top: It reminds us of those extremely adorable GMMTV BLs from 2019-2020. But Cherry Magic takes it up a notch. The acting strikes the perfect balance—over-the-top without cringe comedy. The result? A wholesome plot that warms your heart.
- Green Flags Everywhere: The show is sweet, filled with green flags, and genuinely heartwarming. From Karan and Achi’s chemistry to the secondary characters’ subplots, it’s a delightful ensemble.
- No Annoying Plot Devices: Unlike some dramas, Cherry Magic doesn’t rely on frustrating plot twists to keep the romance going. Karan and Achi genuinely love each other, and their straightforward relationship is refreshing.
- Karan’s True Colors: Karan, the suave and talented guy, turns out to be just as delulu as us. His crush on Achi makes him giggle like a schoolboy. It’s hilarious and endearing.
- Themes of Self-Love and Confidence: Through Achi’s journey, the show addresses themes of inferiority complex and self-love. It’s a reminder that believing in oneself matters.
In summary, Cherry Magic is a goofy rom-com with a touch of modern-day fantasy. It’s so cute you might combust! Whether you’re a BL enthusiast or just looking for a heartwarming series, this one’s a winner.
