Big step down

Everything went wrong with part 2, even the addition of the legendary Ha Ji-won can't salvage this.

It's a shame because it seems like the crew are really passionate about kdramas and it looks like a dream project of theirs, but so many problems crept in. The lead in season 2 becomes a charisma black hole for no reason, she's everything but likable in every way, big step down from season 1 where she was at least likable. Now she's just angsty and annoying and everyone acts like she's so cool and kind where she's the exact opposite. Massive lead actress issue here.

Many characters become caricatures of themselves as well, their best actor (Ha Ji-won) has got nothing interesting to do, the central romance falls flat, and while the story is mildly interesting, we're just jumping from place to place without much logic.

I feel like the introduction in the first episodes of vampires and weretigers to the story is pretty much the exact worse direction they could have taken the story at this point. Writers really need to look back at season 1 to see what worked, because this one just wasn't good.

And finally, the ending is awful and resolves nothing. Not recommended. If you do watch this, stop after part 1.
