Mirror of the Witch Episode 7 Reactions
I think the real problem is that through out the show there really isn't that much screen time for Heo Jun and Seo Ri. What's more is even less time of them together. I enjoy the story that's being weaved, but there's a certain distance being maintained because they don't get much screen time. Especially with another time jump.
I feel torn though as I do like the sub stories and how everything is weaving together. I'd say the Shamaness is definitely more of a lead than a side character. In fact, I'd wager she has the most screen time of any character present.
I give props to the director for keeping the cool black magic effects going. Visually Mirror of the Witch still remains a treat for the eyes. I hope that Seo Ri and Heo Jun will get more time together. Not to mention that other characters, many of the awesome side characters, get some much needed screen time. Maybe cut back so much on the Shamaness. We're well aware she's there.

The episode also presented us our first song. Yes, it took Mirror 7 episodes to play one song. I for one love this. The background music remained truly background all that time, enhancing scenes and creating the dark eerie mood. I especially loved the sound of the bell in the first scenes of episode 7 and last scenes of episode 6.
On the other hand, the Black Witch doesn't need comedy breaks. The relentless Witch still has a lot of tricks down her sleeves. Interesting! I've got to say I love King Seonjo and the Queen too. The show has a knack of painting people's weaknesses under realistic lights. In the usual K-drama fair, the good people are always good, magnanimous, great... The bad characters are filthy-dirty (Like Ok and his mom) and there's no hope for them whatsoever. Mirror paints a wide array of people, all different shades of gray, making King Seonjo and the Queen one of the most real, relatable characters I've seen.
