Throughout its run, Head Over Heels maintained the top spot in its time slot and was appreciated for its unique storytelling, impressive acting skills, and the beautiful fusion between Korean shamanism and classic romance.

Over the course of 12 episodes, Head Over Heels achieved what very few fantasy dramas could manage: a consistent tone, a gripping backstory of the characters, and a realistic approach to myth. After the finale episode, many curiously asked if there would be a season 2, as it greatly impacted the audience.
