Tinytan Magic Door Diorama Clock The Tinytan Magic Door Diorama Clock is a unique and enchanting piece of art that combines the beauty of a clock with the whimsy of a magical diorama. This clock is adorned with intricate details and miniature figures that transport you to a magical world every time you look at it. The centerpiece of the clock is a tiny magic door that opens to reveal a mystical scene inside. This scene can vary, but it often includes miniature animals, trees, and even a little house. The door is delicately crafted and painted with vibrant colors, adding to the overall charm of the piece. The clock face itself is designed to complement the magical theme.
Ban Ji-yeon is a 39-year-old investigative news reporter at Trouble Maker. Her job is the most important thing in Ji-yeon’s life, and she’s so passionate about it that colleagues call her a “witch” behind her back. Ji-yeon focuses all her energy on work because she stopped believing in love after her last boyfriend, 41-year-old war photographer Noh Shi-hoon disappeared prior to their wedding day.
Verdict A light-hearted romcom that suffers from haphazard storytelling and an undercooked OTP, with lots of untapped potential and missed opportunities.

Finished Witch's Love and these are my thoughts.
Kang Cho-Hong (played by Yoon So-Hee) is a young witch living with her grandmas, running a restaurant by day and performing magic rituals by night, who soon finds herself losing her powers. Ma Sung-Tae (played by Hyun Woo) is a wealthy businessman trying to solve a traumatic puzzle from his childhood, who buys the restaurant building, effectively becoming the witches' landlord overnight. While initially keen on getting rid of him, the witches soon change their tune when they learn he might be the key to restoring Cho-Hong’s powers. But there is more to Sung-Tae’s story than meets the eye…
What worked for me:
- Yo Soon-Hee as Kang Cho-Hong. Easily the character with the more interesting performance and more enthusiastic/combative about the relationship, showing more emotional range than her male counterparts. One of the reasons why I watched the show to completion, with the other being.
- The concept of a Bewitched-like show where the mortal falls for the witch Samantha (Cho-Hong). It's an interesting hook, but one that's never exploited to its full potential, partly because the supernatural elements aren't explored as thoroughly or consistently as in other shows (e.g. Goblin, Hotel del Luna), partly because the main male lead, Sung-Tae, remains mostly one note throughout. This ties neatly into.
What didn't work for me:
- The male leads. I honestly couldn't see sparks flying with any of the male leads. The second male lead, Hwang Jae-Wook, played by Lee Hong-Bin, is mostly harmless and entirely uninteresting. If there is more chemistry with Sung-Tae, it may be because he has more screentime, as he was a bit of a jerk throughout, more possessive than I would like, and rarely allowed himself to show vulnerability around Cho-Hong. No transformation a la Park Seo-Joon from What's Wrong With Secretary Kim?
- Forgotten character and plot threads. Probably the only show I've watched in recent memory where a character who's being built up as the second female lead, and potential love interest for Sung-Tae, is promptly forgotten, giving no resolution to her arc. Were the writers forced to cut episodes and thus plot threads? That CCTV camera installed in Sung-Tae's bedroom also goes nowhere when there's an event practically tailored-made for it.
- The inconsistent de-powering rule. Spoilers. The show establishes early on that the emotional trauma brought about by, say, a boyfriend cheating on you, can take away a witch's power; and a witch without her power will soon lose her youth, looks, and mind. So how come when the grandmas wipe out Sung-Tae's memories against Cho-Hong's wishes, leaving her utterly depressed to the point she'd rather die, she doesn't lose her powers again?
- The confusing "fated man" plot and the dark witch's agenda. Truly, this seems to be a case where the villain's dastardly plot is a result of pure chance rather than any actual planning. What confuses me is that the dark witch predicts some outcomes but is utterly befuddled by others. Spoilers. The show plays around with the idea of Jae-Wook being Cho-Hong's actual fated man rather than Sung-Tae, but it's never entirely clear. And in any case, how was the dark witch planning to exploit this to her benefit? She's only able to do so because Cho-Hong falls in love with Sung-Tae, who just happened to be carrying a death sentence on his chest, a fact the dark witch admits to not knowing initially. She even hints Cho-Hong was supposed to fall for the other guy. Why? None of this makes sense.
- A witch's fate and the harvesting of magic. Spoilers. So no witch ever had an inkling that the dark witch, whom everyone suspects, was harvesting magical power for her own nefarious purposes. Seriously? Even after Cho-Hong and one of the grandmas visited her shop multiple times? When So-Hee actually voiced aloud why no one had ever thought of simply destroying the flasks I actually chuckled at how quickly (and badly) the writers were trying to wrap things up. To make matters worse, the flasks' destruction "cures" (partially, they only seem to have regained their minds) the homeless witches in a scene that was just laughably bad and had no setup whatsoever. Was this particular plot thread also cut in the writers' room?
Verdict: A light-hearted romcom that suffers from haphazard storytelling and an undercooked OTP, with lots of untapped potential and missed opportunities. Some episodes also suffer from audio issues, with the characters' words drowned out by the music or simply lowered into oblivion. The soundtrack has some good tracks that fit the tone of the show and feel at home in this world of witches, but I can't vouch for it entirely as I'm in the process of listening to it. I can share this particular track that I liked though.

What are your thoughts on the show? Did I miss something? I'd very much appreciate it if someone could explain to me some of the messier plot threads. Hopefully we can get a discussion going. Cheers!

Reviews for "Exploring the Artistry of Tinytan Magic Door Diorama Clocks"
1. Jane - 2/5 - I was really excited to try out the Tinytan magic door diorama clock, but I was left disappointed. First of all, the clock was smaller than I expected, making it difficult to read the time from a distance. Secondly, the magic door feature was quite underwhelming. The doors were flimsy and easily broke off, and the magic effect was simply a small LED light that didn't add much to the overall experience. Overall, I found this product to be overpriced for its lackluster features.
2. Mike - 1/5 - This Tinytan magic door diorama clock was a waste of my money. The clock itself didn't keep time accurately and frequently lost a few minutes throughout the day. The magic door feature was an absolute joke. The doors didn't even open properly, and the LED light effect was barely noticeable. I expected much better quality and functionality considering the price I paid for it. I would not recommend this clock to anyone looking for a reliable timepiece with interesting features.
3. Sarah - 2/5 - I was initially attracted to the Tinytan magic door diorama clock because of its unique design and advertised magic effect. However, after receiving it, I was let down. The clock started making an annoying ticking noise after just a few days of use, which became unbearable. The magic door feature was also not as impressive as I had hoped. The doors were difficult to open and close, and the LED light effect didn't really add anything to the overall aesthetic. Considering the price, I expected a better quality product.
